No one can "own" gold

Or anything else. We can only borrow anything for a few years of our time on this earth.

Stalinist Morons

It is only morons who blame the situation of todays economic distress on two individuals. Since this is a mostly free country yet we should expell the real reason behind the chaos. This odd sense that the government can do anything right. There is a reason why Mexicans want to leave their impoverished country for this one. If this country were as bad as the Democrats or Obama (aka Barry Sotoero)believers make it out to be, one would think no one would want to come here. Cicero had it right when he admonished the Roman hierarchy to stop the public assistance, giving money to support interests in foreign lands and this self absorbed entitlement that those in power thought they had. They think that dielectic materialism works but it doesn't. Thats the reason socialist countries are impoverised to begin with. Some elitists think they were destined to rule. Isn't it strange that Hitler, Napolean, Stalin and a long list of other idiots rose to power during bad economic times. We nearly had the same thing happen here when one of our presidents made it illegal to own gold. I wonder if that will happen again?

Forget those responses above as to "why"

The REASON companies are doing this is that it is "in vogue" to do so. Citizens are standing for it as though it is inevitable.

What chumps we have been. Reaganism. Bushism. That's real smart stuff for you, huh?

2008 is the year we BEGAN to wake up. The fix will take a couple of decades.
