Really GOOD article about WHY MOST DON'T HOLD gold & silver

The bottom line of the article is the reason for so much of America's problems:

"the MIS-INFORMATION and UNTRUTHS professed at complete truth."


P L E A S E:

Read this slowly and THEN print it out for later.

Then think about things like "evolution, dishonest paper money, coined freedom, frankly the Bible "- I have some 20 versions.

Once we took prayer out of the schools in 1963 the jail populations exploded. I know, I have been in law enforcement for 45 years.

Now now be NICE they gave me a DIRTY COPPER already because somebody got my 1st choice

DIRTY HARRY - loved the guy. I was on the job then but they would not allow me to have a
.44 magnum - so I settled for a .357 magnum. Model 66 SS S & W (I even had the darn thing engraved afterwards)

I loaded it with two 125 grain JHP .38 +P Supers
then two 158 grain SWC .38 +P Supers, if that first two didn't drop 'em
then two .357 Metal Piercers if they were behind the car doors.

Boy they were loud!

Gosh, I miss L.A. it was a lot of fun in the old days 1965-1985

things change...

Now

Make MY day ... PUNK!

With my GLOCK!

maybe why very few hold gold .. is that the average family in america cannot come up with a thousand bucks ,,living from payday to payday,, credit card payment to credit card payments. ???

All those things are true enough, but they don't go to the root cause. One can blame "lies and disinformation", but you can't correct anything by cutting out the lies and disinformation. People accept them because they don't have enough education in the field to separate truth from error. They don't have the education because they spent at least twelve years in public schools learning to be stupid, and then spent some time trying to learn enough to get a job. They had to go through public schools, even knowing how lousy they were, because their parents had to work two, three, or more jobs to keep up with taxes and inflation. Those were due to out-of-control government and uncontrollable Federal Reserve shenanigans. They were out of control because people didn't know enough about civics to enforce their controls on the government, again due to public schools.

After pursuing this analysis you eventually realize that the root cause is the abandonment of a standard of right and wrong. People have always known that paper money is always fraudulent, but they accepted the stuff because of the rewards involved. People have always known that the government was out of line but they accepted it because silly patriotism felt so much better than demanding rightness from their government.

Cultural collapse is nothing new. Every dominant culture in history has eventually collapsed, all in the same general way for the same general reasons. The process always involves immigrants taking over basic support jobs, citizens subsisting on handouts from the government, rejection of traditional morality, religion, and standards of excellence, national defense turned over to mercenaries, debased coinage followed by outright fraudulent money, and so on and on. No culture has ever avoided the collapse. Not even one.

It seems to be a facet of human nature to give up and abandon the standard of rightness that enabled the country to grow strong. And there is no recovery because without a standard of rightness nothing seems right, and anything seems right. Mankind is simply not capable of self government in numbers larger than a town.
