I'm not surprised by the massive hit to the precious metals this am. But I am suprised at the complete lack of commentary by the talking heads.

Just to observe what is going on it only takes a moron or better to see that the prices are being manipulated and manipulation radiates from new jerk and dc..

Let's see;

1 A war is going on in the ME with commentary by nearly every nation and virtually nothing being said in the US. Small headlines regarding head count, but that's about it. Its like it is no big deal.

2 Our national debt goes up by $ Trillions in just 2 1/2 months.

3 $ s created out of the ether and given to the crooks who created a global financial crisis.

4 Over 2 million americans newly unemployed in the last 2 1/2 months. They won't count those who find any kind of part time job just to eat. They don't count anyone who has been unemployed longer than their unemployment insurance lasted. They don't count the self employed that have lost their jobs. The real unemployment rate is well over 15%

5 They don't mention that the $ is "strong" because of the unwinding of years of ponzi scheme unregulated contracts that should have never existed anywhere except in a casino (OTC derivatives).

6 The debt pyramid is based on a foundation of quick sand. The politicians blame the "free market" while they collect the vig.

7 All developed countries are racing to see how much fiat they can print. Global inflation is unimaginable.

8 And yet over and over we see the price of gold and silver hammered as the new jerk con men go to their sweat shops.

The illogic is clear, the manipulation is clear, the offending parties are clear.

Someone remind me what change the majority just voted for. Do we hold our breath and keep expecting it tomorrow?
