gold nationalized? mmm deep thoughts...

[Canick]

Does anyone else share my paranoia that the only "solution" to the world's economic problems both in the USA and Europe is the near future nationalization of gold starting in the US as it was done before in 1933? and to be clear I would not be a fan of such a move even though it would be legal by presidential degree without need for an American civilian vote.....

You said it there, USA and Europe are not the world. Move on, here we come, China, India, and the rest of us. Enjoy the ride.

I'm not sure what this is doing in 'Expat Life' but never mind, here goes: was your comment triggered by something like this http://fxtrade.oanda.com/help/precious-metals-07-15-2011 perhaps? Then I've already expressed my opinion about precious metals and I've nothing new to add.

For the true value of gold read Making Money by Terry Pratchett.
You will never look at banking in the same way again.
