Keep Your "Junk Gold" Dry

"Keep your premium quality gold coins as investments. But when the dollar finally collapses and everything hits the fan, scrap gold will appreciate much more. So don't send your unwanted jewelry and trinkets to outfits like "Cash4Gold." Instead, bundle them up and toss them into your survival kit, next to the packs of cigarettes and bottles of booze. They'll come in handy down the road."

Hector is an economist and a philosophy professor at the University of Buenos Aires in Argentina.

More Taxes is not the Answer

If we doubled today's tax revenue, we'd still have a deficit. Half of U.S. citizens pay zero taxes. The half that pays would leave if you double its taxes.

Best Criminals: The Federal Reserve Board

"The best criminals convince the world that they don't exist.

The Federal Reserve has done the same thing with its paper dollar.  The best counterfeiters convinced the world there's no real money.

The world used gold as its monetary foundation for at least 4,000 years.  Only since 1971 has the world's reserve currency had no connection to gold.  And yet, only 40 years later, it seems as though most people have forgotten gold is the only real money.

We think this is the greatest financial crime in human history. The U.S. government convinced the world gold didn't matter, that its paper (which it can legally print) is better than gold.  It  convinced all of its creditors that counterfeiting was better than sound money.

What do you think is going to happen when our creditors wake up and realize how they've been duped?  One thing is certain; they won't trust us again.  And they won't buy our bonds."
