    Yes I think I misunderstood originally, my bad. But that actually futhers my point even more than I thought, in the end. If I had it wrong and it's worse than I thought... ouch. lol

    No worries. That's why I posted this thread... To make sure everyone knows the facts behind these debates :)

      You forgot to tell him that the Fed gave the banks tons of cheap credit to play with, and how the main credit rating agency rated trash as a good investment, and how Goldman knew about the trash they were selling and insured it through AIG.

        Oh we've been over the corruption aspect yesterday (talked about fascism, and they're denying it). I didn't talk about that specificially, but that's a really good point, and just chalk it up to one more reason why we are living in a fascist state. But nobody wants to listen to you, because you're crazy. Honestly, they're the ones living with a belief system, just as if they really were religious about "keynesianism" or something to that effect. But I have Ian almost totally agreeing with the points here, so that's a great start.

          Well keep up the good work. Personally I think these people are lost causes, especially Graus. Graus knows that he is wrong, but he enjoys being manipulative in a sick way.

            Firstly, CSS, Blink text? lol Terrible. Secondly, I just watched it. It's pretty much the case in point of the whole thing we've been talking about. A) Crash is inevitable. B) Our governement (nevermind EVERY government EVER to exist) is corrupt. C) We're the largest debtor nation in the world. D) We got off the gold standard. We will have hyperinflation, because of the crash, and countries will dump the dollar. But let everyone continue to sleep, it feels good to be in a delta wave state. (pretty much a pun... the state has us in a delta wave state... lol I crack me up.)

              It's a video, so it must be good, right ? Did you know that studies of brain activity have proven you learn far more from reading than from watching video ? Well, people capable of learning do, YMMV.

                Déjà vu[^]. It's déjà vu[^], all over again. Reprise: It is a video made by a bullion company[^] extolling a currency backed by gold, i.e., propaganda. It is better produced than the other bullion propaganda video you posted (something about inflation), the script is well written, and the main narrator is John Stanton, an experienced Ozzie actor, whose voice lends conviction and authority. However, no analysis is made of the problems that would be encountered with a gold backed currency, together with a proposed solution for each. That is what makes it propaganda. How can I put this kindly? Your intellectual development appears to have stalled around 6th grade. Consequently, any video that you can understand is likely to be too simplistic to be of interest to the rest of us.

There is nothing wrong in holding gold as a crisis hedge; and in uncertain times like these, it is a good idea to hold some (in its physical form and readily accessible). But first, you should stock up on supplies, water, etc. You would be surprised at how much gold you would be prepared to part with just to stay alive.

                            "But nobody wants to listen to you, because you're crazy. Honestly, they're the ones living with a belief system, just as if they really were religious about "keynesianism" or something to that effect." It's called sarcasm. Maybe I should have stated it like this: But nobody wants to listen to you, "because you're crazy". Honestly, they're the ones living with a belief system, just as if they really were religious about "keynesianism" or something to that effect. Does that get the point across better? I've held our position all day for two days straight in three threads. I'm not backing down, I feel I've studied this stuff enough to know what I'm talking about.

                              I disagree. I think I've backed up the reasons as to why pretty well at this point.
