little doubt that the current flurry of dismantling has been ground worked on since ‘00.. you can’t think this stuff up as fast as it’s changing... we’ve been duped.. and I think Mclame is in on it..
BTW .. here is the “stinker” I referred to last night.. it actually went into effect Oct 1 ..

One more Question Point and I’ll go vomit..
What was the reason FDR used to ban the ownership of Gold ?
AND ... What’s to stop that from re-occurring ???

I forget the reason FDR used, it only worked for a few, for many owned gold and did not talk about it.
If you ever see a bunch of people getting evacuated from a country, notice the many gold chains they are wearing, I first caught it when we left Viet Nam, all the people had gold chains.
Yes, it can and will happen again.
An old miner that I knew, in the Quartzite area, at the KOFA mine, once told me, about 1967, that the Chinese came to him on a regular basis, from Mexico to buy his gold.
He had been born there about 80 years before and only had a couple ounces at a time, but still they came and had for many years.
I have always been sorry that I did not buy the 20 acres of patented mining property that he offered us, for $1,500. it was for dry washing, would never have been a get rich mine, but would still be paying a little for the effort to work it.
But then we could stake our own claims, little did we know, that in a few years the gov would stop the staking of claims, by such as us.
I would think that gold ownership is in the same class as gun ownership, unregistered and keep your mouth shut.
