Skol,
I think you've invested yourself too much in the USA. Now you have difficulty accepting that the USA empire, like all empires and not just the US$, is coming to an end.
True enough, it won't go down in dignity, but screaming, six-guns blazing, taking everyone down with it!
Therein lies your problem. A war in Iraq, another in Afganistan, A third in Libya(?), and bitching for one with Iran! Apart from the devastation, the destruction of life and property, there still is NO VICTORY!
Internally, states are going bankrupt, jobs are exported complete with factories to China, or Mexico, leaving a USA barely able to cope with tornados and floods!
The USA Govt., indebted for $15+trillion, meanwhile the bankers and the Fed are gorging themselves with money, while nothing remains for healthcare, pensions, or education!
This is not reflective of a healthy economy! The USA is becoming a third world barbarian, banana dictatorship with a phenomenal arsenal!
It does not support a belief in the strength of the US$. Only a healthy respect for the destructive potential of the USA. (A homicidal psychopath in urgent need of attention and help, but in a state of denial!).
So Skol, it's not a question of the value of Gold or Silver, but what is the value of the USA?
At the moment (depending upon what rules get changed), it does not look good. Bankruptcy/default/hyperflation, are some of the likely scenarios.
Like the San Andreas Faultline, its not a question of "If", rather "When"? When however is never when you expect it to be (unfortunately). (It sneeks up while not paying attention, unexpectedly.)
Some consider the faultline way overdue for the earthquake, others that the $ overdue.
In California, there is a chance that after both, the $, & fault-line give-way, people will be buying their beers with silver $ coins.
Cheers,
Denys.
NOT IF. BUT WHEN?
