"Fans of these sites imagine setting themselves up as warlords with all the Krugerrands they've got stashed under their beds after complete anarchy and social breakdown sweep the country after "fiat money" becomes worthless."

LOL!! You hit the nail on the head. And yet these goldbug sites will gladly take your fiat money in exchange for their gold at the going rate. What's up with that?
