That coin was issued by the Vatican!

Why are you promoting the Roman church?

Are you a Jesuit?

The 2008 financial crises marked by the failures of Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers was attributed to the excessive and unsupportable debt levels in the U.S. housing market. The U.S. government, as well as the Federal Reserve, resorted to the extraordinary measures we mentioned to save the financial system.

At that time there were roughly 15 major banks in the U.S. Today, after years of consolidation, there are five banks, now referred to as "too big to fail." With the concentration of financial power in a handful of banks, systemic risk has only increased.

In 2008, U.S. government debt was about $10 trillion. Today, the debt is about $20 trillion. But the U.S. isn't alone in this. The same explosion of debt has occurred simultaneously in Europe, China and Japan. The risk that this debt poses to the global financial system is enormous and growing. The question becomes not one of how do governments reverse course but how and when do governments and central banks get off this path and onto a totally new path?

Thus far government and central bank policy has been to "inflate" our way out of trouble. Paying off debt in an inflationary environment has been far less painful than it would have been to pay off debt in a stagnant or deflationary environment.

Zero and negative interest rate policies have been implemented to help governments inflate their way out of the crisis. Unfortunately, this has been exceedingly difficult to engineer. Debt levels are rising 4% annually while growth is only at 2% at best. This is unsustainable over time.

Behind the scenes, governments and central banks are hedging their bets. Sales of gold bullion by central banks ended in the financial crises of 2008. In fact, according to the Official Monetary and Financial Institutions Forum's research document, "Seven Ages of Gold," central banks have been net bullion buyers every year since 2008, adding more than 2,800 tons or 9.4% to reserves

This, directed at me, is THE funniest thing I have read all week, which reminds me of one of the BEST videos on youtube, worth MANY watches

For some reason I can never see anything in these show and tell threads. Just a blank post.

Anyone got a suggestion why?

Try different browsers if the same results, look at your Antivirus or ad blocking

If the same may be think censorship?

Or even as simple as your operating system?

Some pictures as you know, only can be see logged on. But you
Know that, last look at your forum settings here.

Problem can be external or self-inflicted.

It just seems to be the "see what I bought" threads I can't see images in. I see everything else that gets posted, embedded images etc. I used to figure people were just posting empty posts until others started commenting, thanks etc. It's odd. Maybe it's old steels posts I can't see? No, IIRC ximmy has posted some buys that I couldn't see either.

People just don't want to show me their stuff. :confused:

and it deals with pictures.

If I would do a direct copy and paste picture, I can see it and some others also, but not everyone. It was because I did not import the pictures using the editing tools or not quoting with the [image] etc, brackets when I was posting pic's.

That may be what is happening ?

I see no "pissing" contest
What I do see is an instigator (crimestink) TRYING to START ONE, which is why i laugh!!

[Joshua01]

My point is that almost every topic regrades into a religious dog and pony show. I get it! Religion is a powerful force in many of us but there are other things that pass in front of us each and every day and some of those things are actually quite interesting in their own right and have absolutely nothing to do with religion or God.

There is nothing in this world that is not in some way related to God

Glass, when I first read this thread, I could see old steel's coin photos. I can't now though, just see a blank post. Nothing has changed on my laptop and I'm using the same browser.

It's almost like photos get view able for only a small amount of time, then they are gone.

Says the guy that spews "the Vatican did it" in nearly every thread on every topic in every sub forum at GSUS.

I'm sorry you couldn't handle a joke.

[Joshua01]

I knew someone would say that

[old steel]

I can see the pictures still, dunno what the problem could be but better still i can hold in my hand and look at it too, like Ponce said. ;)
