Well, we’re covered for this year’s budget. Next year, we’ll tax all IRA money over $50K at 25%; they’re rich anyway. After that, it will be the next guy’s problem.

What a croc.....”no longer considered a form of currency...” By whom? Only governments that want to keep the value of their fiat currencies.

Why then is China buying so much gold? Banks? Others? Why is the price of gold UP?????

Because THE WORLD still values gold as currency........

Well, this explains one of the headlines in Bloomberg today:

Trudeau's Message to World: Let Government Spending Do the Work

Trudeau is Canada's Bernie Sanders, whom I believe also converted to Islam.

Who is buying all the gold?

Can’t sell without a buyer.

Norway pretty much liquidated our gold reservers a bit more than a decade ago.

Typically for our inept conservatives at a low point on the gold price.

Instead the oil fund is buying stock and property.
