    I don't pretend to have that kind of crystal ball. Much of the rise in both gold and silver over the past few years can be logically attributed to the same thing that has driven higher prices in the rest of the commodities...........world demand, particularly from newly emerging economies, most notably India and China. While many commodities have tailed off recently I would guess that gold has held somewhat due to the overall economic fear, and the investment community not having confidence in a broad range of investment vehicles.............for comfort they're in cash and precisious metals (but not to excesses that would push the price higher at an accelerated rate). When the world begins to come out of the pending/existing recession it's a good bet commodity demand will accelerate again and we'll be whining about the price of steel, oil, copper, and so on unless we do something about increasing production of these commodities to keep pace with demand (don't bet on our pending government structure to address the energy needs with realistic solutions for example).

    I'm not betting on any government or any of it's programs to do one dang thing positive regarding the rest of the country!!!!! In retrospect, I believe my present mindset actually began the day they shot JFK!!!! Could actually have been before that, but I thought Kennedy was kewl and Jackie was gorgeous!!! I was young an impressionable, what can I say?????


    Was the Peace Corps really the last good thing our government ever did or am I just looking at things with a somewhat jaundiced eye????

    I have been watching this come together for some time. No, I didnt think of it myself, I dont understand any of that crap, but I have been reading things my informed friends have sent me. This is just one little detail, a puzzle piece. Much of the world events you have seen in recent years have been taking us down a path so the ___________ (whoever that is) can take over the world.

    Not a fantisy, you should be seriously concerned.

    I've invested in cervesa. I figure it will go up in value, due to increased sales, as the economy goes down.....if I get too stressed over it all, I can self medicate.....and if things get better, I can use it for the celebration!

    ......I was gonna buy it anyway. :-)~

    This guy is a jerk and any one who believes what he is saying should have his/her head examined. Most of the people who belive this stuff have only a 6 grade education or seem to. There are a lot of these conspiricy (sp) theory guys around who came up with this off the wall stuff everytime some thing important or controversial comes up. The internet attracts all the kooks there are around and there are a lot of them. Most of these guys live off making these theories by doing speeches about them. Let them prove everything they are saying - not just spouting off. None of them can. This ameros currency crap is really old stuff, has been around for years.

    Remember the guys that believed that the UN was preparing black heliocoptors to take over the world?

    Remember the JFK assignation theories? In 45 years NO ONE has proved any thing different that rebuts the original report. Yea Yea - I know, there still are guys out there who believe different, but please, don't waste your time posting some thing because you are nuts.

    I do agree about Americans sitting back and watching..... it's quite obvious you're new here and don't know me well, I've never been in either the group watching things happen, or the group saying what happened....

    I also have no clue what your point is or what it is you're peddling here on CHR, but it would be fun to know what it is you're going to make happen????
