vbell, it would not suprise me in the least that there is no gold ... there has not been an audit done in decades.
as a minimum they are turning a blind eye, if they are not directly participating.
The fed a private company not owned by the US (bank of Canada is not owned by Canadians) has been handed that gold.
Ultimately the US has a vested interest in suprresing people's belief in gold so they remain the world currency.
In my opinion they will stop at nothing to secure that position.
