Here's a bunch of stuff from Midas - Must Read

posted on Sep 14, 2008 03:04PM
Here's a bunch of stuff from Midas concerning the "disconnect" of paper prices from physical, or real metal. Gold and silver bugs have known instinctively for over a decade that the paper price discovery method was a fraud. It is the way the American Empire steals or extracts tribute from its client states and any others it can suck in. They simply rig ALL commodity prices with derivatives so that anybody in the world who produces a tangible asset receives a fraction of true value. This varies from half true value all the way up? to 1% of true value in the case of gold and silver. One could make the case that since settlement is in US dollars that all commodities are almost free as the US dollar is worth about 2% of its 1900 value. Anything sold for US dollars is a donation to the Empire.

I think China is doing this too, although they have not been as blatant in
announcing it. Mind you, China was not insulted like Russia was in Georgia.
So, Russia is making its financial response as visible as it can and that is designed
to send a message to the United States about payback. Russia is the number 3 rank
order holder of US dollars in the world, after China and Japan respectively. If Russia
decided to wholesale dump its dollar exposure, they would take down the US Treasury
market, and that would bankrupt the United States overnight. It boggles the mind to see
the US in one military adventure after another that seems to be intended to offend its
creditor nations. Are the Americans crazy or are they simply applying the philosophy
first expressed by John Connoly back in 1968 when he said, "It's our dollar but your problem."
