Nothing new Sky, as you and everyone else knows the whole system is bent or corrupt in some sort of way. These bloated pigs are on a win win win...until the law wakes up and decides to sort them out out big time which will never happen.

BTW: Sky..this book may interest you.

The law is the law made by their own buddies. Go figure.

What just stuns me at times is that people just accept it, instead of storming institutions, hanging politicians and chasing the feudal class through the streets. Everybody tries to stay kind and calm, and ignores that doom is heading for him. I just don't get it. The German hyperinflation was the worst example of hyperinflation ever. But it is a child's play to what is coming to us in a truly globalised financial system and economy.

And it will not just be some bureaucratic nuisance for the ordinary John Smith in our Western countries. It will do plenty of killing. Hope my health takes me out before that day arrives, but things seem to speed up recently, and so I fear me too will get caught by the blow. I'm not eagerly looking forward to that.

The book, don't know that one in special, but have had several titles like that last years. Especially this one got my attention:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Paper-Money-...lev+schlichter

Thanks for the hint.

In general I hint at the masterful work of Ludwig von Mises, and E.F. Hayek. What the above authors describe in latest books, has bee warned of and predicted already decades and over half a century ago by Mises and Hayek. It's a century to go back, if you count their predecessors they based their work on.

Some what a 1984 situation where most people are pros and as long as they get there little treats they will gladly go along with the lies. Makes me laugh when I hear friends say did you hear about JP Morgan and Chase along with Goldman Sachs got big stiff fines that will teach them! I just laugh and say teach them what, they only go and do it again.

Compared to the illicit profits they've raked in with their thieving, the fines are nothing more than a business expense and could be called profit sharing for the gub'mint

Everything is manipulated for max profits these days. Not just gold.
I can only hope that Fort Knox still has the back up plan stored there. But, alas, it may be like the Social Security trust. Constantly raided until depleted.

Oh well. They can't take it with them after their lynching and I really couldn't care less about worldly things like money. You come into the world with nothing and you'll leave it the same way.

Gold is not manipulated for profit in the main, but for protecting the snowballing scheme itself that is behind paper money - that is the point! It'S not about a simple criminal coup. It is about the very system.

If you can't beat them, join them.

Any idea how to predict when they'll inflate and deflate prices
There's €200 in my drawer waiting to become €2000

There are reasonable thoughts voiced by some who predict that gold will go beyond the 10.000 dollar mark the closer to final collapse day we are. I think that is possible. I tcoulöd even become multiple times that price, if you understand the logic behind FIAT money and gold.

But there will be new gold prohibitions announced by states, so you would be needing to act criminally and on the black market if you want to benefit from any - then illegitimate by the law'S letter - savings you stockpiled in gold and did not hand over to the state's gangsters when they demanded you to change your gold for useless rags of paper. You would need to accept the risk of most draconic penalties, because states cannot afford to tolerate black markets in such conditions. Or states catch you by excessive taxation of legal gold sales. In the end, when the going gets tough, there is no safety and no rescue, and those with gold will be in the mess as well as those holding shares (or follies like Bitcoins...) or landproperty (-> taxation, enforced expropriation).

We have had that before, and not just in Germany. America and Britain have been there, too, less than one man's lifespan ago.

Repeatedly.

Send it over to me and I'll put it to good use

Back OT...any tradeable commodity is used for profitable gain and always will do as long as there is a buyer and a seller within the marketplace.

Gold is manipulated mainly for profit, same as silver diamonds oil or any other tradable material.
If seashells were a major valuable commodity then they would also be manipulated mainly for profit.

Once upon a time seashells did have value and were actually traded for goods, lands and services. That is until Dutch colonists realized this and began mass-produceding wampum in workshops to the point that the market for wampum was glutted and effectively destroyed.

Now it's nothing more than 'fashion' jewlery.

Kinda like where the dollar is heading.
