Gold is not an investment. It’s an indictment.
Very well said. Every bit of gold bought by your average Joe is a vote of no confidence in 0bama specifically, and government in general.
I had something rather funny (funny after the fact) happen to me over the Labor Day weekend. We were visiting some relatives that consider themselves "enlightened because they are liberal" and we were discussing her new rangetop of all things. She was recommending that we check into an induction range, and I made a little comment about "I think we'll stick with gas". She blew a gasket and called me closed-minded. I kinda blew it off, but asked my wife later - what was that all about? My wife said "she knows what you think of 0bama, and when you say you preferred a gas stove, she knew that you preferred that because you think 0bama's going to take the country down and that electricity might be hard to come by." So, my preference of a gas stove over an electric was also an indictment.
