There isn’t enough physical gold or silver to go to a hard metal financial market.

If you set it at the old $20.67 cents peer ounce, you would be right. However, if you set it at something approaching the current market rate, such as $1000 per ounce, we might be able to swing it.

Do you really think the government has anywhere near $17 trillion of gold @ $1000/oz.? That would be 17 billion oz. No way.

Ok. I need to go buy a hamburger. How much gold, and how easily is it transferred?

And how do you keep it there?
