Look mate, when the US goes ballistic, as it most probably will (lets face it, Superman, Batman and Captain America couldn't save the empire after the last decade)... you can all come and stay in my nice new home in the mountains of Switzerland (Scoutaz and Pic, I have separate rooms no worries) till you cash in your gold/silver and buy your own homes in my neighborhood.
Things may get worse here economically, but the Swiss are not the type to go rampaging through the streets setting stuff on fire... besides I just read about the 1,146 tons of gold they still have here (and the same amount again in private Swiss residents hands - plus our neighbors Italy, France, Germany and EU bank have more than 14 tons!)... so we're cool.
We can all kick back, get nostalgic about the 'good old days' while drinking Chateauneuf-du-pape (I just had a bottle... yum) and shedding a tear for the shorters and banks who ruined out homelands.
Lets face it Goldie... we can't stop the mayhem that's coming, so at least we can make sure that we have enough in hand to help those closest to us to get to somewhere safe. One thing is for sure... no matter what happens, there will always be the poor and there will always be the rich. It was true through socialism, communism, capitalism and it will be during anarchy... so making sure we have enough for a good bottle of 89' Bordeaux and some Pata Negra ain't so bad really. Hopefully ECU is part of the solution...

Hmmm... will be see Pensons rear it's filthy head again today?
