    So if a gang of armed thugs turned up at your door demanding you hand over your gold "or else" that would be immoral (theft). Just because a gang of thugs calling themselves 'government' does the same thing does not make it any less immoral or any more right simply because they wrote some stuff on a bit of paper giving themselves the 'right' to steal your property. Much better to keep your head down and your mouth shut until it blows over. If it even eventuates. (Not that I have any gold for them to steal, but it's the principle...)

    "Hide yo' gold, hide yo' silver
    Hide yo' gold, hide yo' silver
    cuz they be confiscating all da metal out there.
    Dey won't don't have to come and confess,
    Dey gunna after ya
    So run and tell that, homestacker
    So run and tell that, homestacker"
