 U.S. Congress Seeks to Replace the Base Metal of Most American Coins With Steel  |
| A measure introduced in the U.S. Congress seeks to replace the base metal of most American coins with steel. The move would slash the nickel and copper content of U.S. coins to a fraction of today’s already reduced levels. Like past changes in metal content, the bill represents a logical continuation of currency debasement and calls into question the strength of U.S. fiat currency—yet another sign of the decline of the global monetary system.
Congressman Steve Stivers (R-OH) introduced the bilWednesday, May 15, 2013 |

Theory of Interest and Prices in Paper Currency Part I (Linearity)  |
| Under gold in a free market, the theory of the formation of the rate of interest
is straightforward.¹ The rate varies in the narrow range between the floor
at the marginal time preference, and the ceiling at the marginal productivity.
There is no positive feedback loop that causes it to skyrocket (as it did up
until 1981) and subsequently to spiral into the black hole of zero (as it is
doing now). It is stable.
In irredeemable paper currency, it is much more complicated. In this first

| America's Forgotten War Against the Central Banks |
| In order to pay debts incurred from the Seven Years War with France, King George III of England sought to heavily tax the colonies in America. In 1742, the British Resumption Act required that taxes and other debts be paid in gold.Friday, May 10, 2013 |

| Is Mr. Buffet Right about not Holding Gold? |
| Who is Warren Buffett? He's 'Yoda' of the financial world. He is a man brilliantly skilled at making profits with considerable expertise in the U.S. economy and its corporations.Gold is, as he says, a dormant item pulled out of the ground and stored in vaults thereafter. It is not for 'just making profits because it is an entirely different animal to corporations.The big difference is that Buffett has been making money for around 70 years, whereas gold has been preserving wealth for around 5000Thursday, May 09, 2013 |

| Gold - Who's selling who's buying who's lying |
| Although the Pharisees of paper money successfully forced down the price of gold, like those who lobbied Pontius Pilate to crucify Jesus, the consequences of their actions will backfire beyond their wildest imagination.The decision of the paper money cabal to force down the price of gold is akin to Japan's decision to attack Pearl Harbor. Although the attack was successful, the eventual consequences were not what Japan had envisioned.Recently, an article, The Gold Correction: What's the Big DealThursday, May 09, 2013 |

 5 reasons why US States are keen to return to sound money |
| For many gold bears the fall in the price of gold against the US dollar was a sure sign that faith in the international reserve currency was back. However as Americans rush to order their coins from the US Mint and others lobby their state government to return precious metals to the monetary system, it seems as though the US Dollar is most certainly not back in favour.

| Wagner's opera Gotterdämmerung is about the twighlight of pagan gods. The most powerful of the latter-day pagan gods that has been guiding the destinies of humanity for the past two-score of years is Irredeemable Debt. Before August 14, 1971, debts were obligations, and the word "bond" was to mean literally what it said: the opposite of freedom. The privilege of issuing debt had a countervailing responsibility: that of repayment.Friday, May 03, 2013 |

Gold Recovers Amidst Uncertainty  |
| The selloff in gold that captured the world's attention in mid-April has revealed some truths about how the market trades and the sentiments of many of the investors who have piled into the trade over the past few years. While the correction does highlight a higher degree of uncertainty than many of the most ardent gold advocates had anticipated, it does not represent the historic "end of an era" reversal that the many in the media have so gleefully suggested. In many ways, the market has shownFriday, May 03, 2013 |

| Connecticut Begins Gold Dealer Shutdown |
| With CT already having a gun-grab bill on the table, it'd be best for the socialist state if it cancels their citizen's rights now than try after their heads become clear with visions that maybe they should get some gold (maybe) afterall!

| The most powerful element of the shift has been the movement of gold wealth from Western locations (New York, London, Switzerland) to Eastern locations (China, Russia, Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong). Most residents of the United States, the United Kingdom, and Western Europe are in shock, constantly distracted by the sweeping disruptive events led by a) unstoppable government deficits, b) the powerful crumble of sovereign bonds, c) the ruinous insolvency of the banking systems, d) the relentless reign of tax terror, and e) the tragic decline of the underlying economiesWednesday, May 01, 2013 |

| The Great U.S. Economic Expansion of 1870-1913 |
|
For some reason, it is conventional wisdom today that the years 1870-1914, the era of the Most Perfect Monetary System Ever Created, was a time of chronic recession and disaster.
But how could that be? The United States was the world’s greatest economic success story of the last two centuries. When did that happen? It didn’t happen during the Civil War and the Great Depression. It must have happened — logically — during times of peace and prosperity.Monday, April 29, 2013 |

| Of all the topics that readers have pleaded me to write about for months but I never did until now, "bitcoins" are at the top of the list.
In private emails, I stated on many occasions "bitcoins are a scam". I now take that back, "scam" is not the correct word. Others whose opinions I highly respect, state the same thing.
For example, Geoff Turk at GoldMoney stated in an email response:
