You seem offended that the Republicans were just as, or more despicable than the Democrats and I suspect that you are trying to assuage your feelings of betrayal by your representative party, by deflecting your […]

I note that both you and Redandmad have a some form of crush on the Pauls. I think it is misguided although Ron deserves a level of respect for his input to libertarian politics, despite his quitting at a critical […]

DON’T LOOK NOW BUT SLD IS 12 YEARS TOO LATE IN RECOGNISING THE BULL MARKET IN GOLD AND SILVER.
HIS INSIGHTFUL UTTERANCES ABOUT THE IMMINENT RISE IN PURCHASING POWER OF THE DOLLAR MUST SURELY PAN OUT, CAUSING A […]

Yes, Agxiik. Ted has woken up to their uselessness but still offers them his gentlemanly hand by stating they weren’t courageous enough to stand up to the politicians or their banker handlers, or go public. Poor […]

Additionally, this will be interesting now that the ones left standing are SIFIs. Systemically Important , that is!

I’ll bet a brick to a life on the dole that we will soon see a list of banks that will suddenly NOT be able pass the infallible EU stress tests. You know, the tests which were devised by the same institution which […]

C’mon you guys! Enough of the false hope, already! Bart is just another cog in the drive train but in his case, he could be described as an idler gear designed to do nothing other than change direction. He is […]

If the CBs are buying 535 tons per year, where are the bullion banks going to source their gold to return it to the CBs? Moreover, at what price? Taking 535 tons out of the market leaves only 2165 tons available […]

Bart’s looking into it as we speak. Nothing gets past him. Hey, Bart dude. It’s 6 foot and tubing. You shoulda been there.

The laws have changed since then and the regulatory cover for their behaviour well established.

How can there be any prosecutions if the laws as established, make it perfectly legal for a cartel to create fake money out of thin air, money not backed by savings, counterfeit money substitutes? I don’t mean […]

From what I saw on Utube, there was mayhem in the streets as folk stampeded stores to purchase what ever they could before prices rocketed. Coming to a mall near you.

A nation that perceives fractional reserve banking as a moral entity, there is not much a person can do to value his labour. Saved labour is destroyed by the inflationary effect of the injection of unearned […]

A gold standard doesn’t necessarily mean an end to fractional reserve banking. A sound money system must be linked to property rights. A bank, to be a deposit bank, must observe the rights of the depositor to have […]

Hillary, confused after the blood clot on the brain, called into her doctor’s  office complaining of confusion.
“Doc” she says, “I don’t know if I’m coming or going.”
“Take all your clothes off”. grimaced the […]

“Chris Powell is a hero. He and Ted Butler are two of the most meticulous, dogged defenders of economic freedom out there.” 
Agreed………. but there is one anomaly to his thinking. He still believes in […]

The reason that you can’t withdraw your gold from the FED at call is that it is not there for delivery. The gold must be encumbered by the Fed through swaps, leases or rehypothications of some order of magnitude […]

I don’t have a clue where you get that impression from. If you listen to her questioning, it is leading and cleverly cloaked at the same time. A journalist has to ask these type of questions (manipulation proof, […]

They’re asking Shiela Bair to make proposals? She was a regulator? really?

They’re all the same, Mary. The AUD used to be known as the Pacific Peso. What does that say about its numeraire, the US dollar, as it measures itself against the Pac Peso!?
