Tin foil hat time again. What do y'all think about the article below? Does Germany know something that we aren't being told?
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/german...--finance.html
Of course, on the other hand as one of the commenters said (the only reason to read yahoo news) "Who would trust a country 17 trillion in debt to hold onto their money?" HAHAHA.
Discuss.
Fantastic. This should turn out fun! What happens when they realize the gold that we've supposedly been storing for them, isn't readily available for some reason?
If I had any gold, I wouldn't want someone else holding it. Many countries are trying to increase their gold reserves because the world economy is so uncertain. It only makes sense to have those reserves at home, IMO.
I was laughing about this. They open the vault and see an IOU stamped by the Social Security commission.... HAHAHAHA.Quote:

I think it's related to the euro and the EU. Historically, the nations that have done this haven't done so well afterwards, however. Too little too late? I'm almost certain they don't trust us (who would?), and they sure don't trust France!! China's been doing some very interesting things with gold as well. Lots of rumors have been floating around that various nations have been trading with gold, instead of the commonly accepted US Dollar. Some say that's why certain nations have recently had 'problems, and leadership changes', because they wanted to use alternative currencies for doing business!!
I wouldn't put anything past our admin., nor the central banks of the world.
I've been saying it for years. Bread, bullets, and bullion. Still rings true as far as I'm concerned.
Just another nail in the coffin for the Euro and the EU.
Anyone else think of "Kelly's Heroes" reading that story?
Not til now. :)Quote:

Kelly: Well, if you were looking for a young boy, you should have sent somebody else, Joe.
Big Joe: ...There's no booze, there's no broads, there's no action!
Captain Maitland: That's another thing - don't fool around with the women. Their husbands carry guns. And don't forget, the penalty for looting is death.
Big Joe: Loot what? There's nothing here to loot!
These guys are the ones that know something... [tinhat]Quote:

As for the EU failing, the Euro is doing better than the dollar thanks to this administration. China has been trading a lot more in Euros this last year as a result of our credit rating downgrade.
