Didn't Woodrow Wilson already pull that trick making it illegal to own gold at that time? That's why I am not buying gold. Obama will do the same thing.

Gold was linked to the Dollar at that time! Now however, the dollar and gold are two separate entities. Neither is linked to the other. Seems there would be lots of dead govt employees if they went door to door trying to confiscate gold!

I don’t recall that. FDR did that, IIRC.

So move it out of the country. This is entirely legal to do. Further, if you invest in non-US real estate, you don't even have to report your ownership to the Feds, only any income you derive from it.
You do have to file the appropriate Treasury Dep't form if you move more than $10,000 of gold outside the US...but it will still be effectively untouchable by the Feds; consider a Panamanian account.
