1. There should be an audit of the gold reserves in Fort Knox but the chances of the government allowing it are slim.
   Most of our countrymen do not understand how gold relates to economy and it’s role in
   restarting the monetary system if there is a failure of fiat currency.
   The gold belongs to you and I. The government just holds it for us. We should know how much there is.
   You would think.

   1. As another commenter said this week, “Unless you can touch it, it doesn’t belong to you.” Sigh.

      Carry on

2. “Gold is safe.”- Treasury secretary Steven Mnuchin August 21st, 2017 after visiting Fort Knox Gold Depository. Note that he did not say “our gold is safe” or “America’s gold is safe”, he merely said that gold is safe, generating more questions than answers.

3. I doubt if the ” smoke & mirrors” people that control the American money system will ever disclose what our gold reserves are , there may be a riot if that happened and it would not be Antifa.
   When you hold it you own it , good to remember and hard to dispute. The same goes for the safe deposit box in the local bank.

   Virgina Sheriff Scott Jenkins:
   “If the legislature decides to restrict certain weapons I feel harms our community, I will swear in thousands of auxiliary deputies in Culpeper,” the sheriff stated, according to The Culpeper Star-Exponent. “There’s no limit to the number of people I can swear in… Personally, I don’t think some of the bills that are proposed will pass, I don’t think we’re that far left in Virginia.”

   My comment:
   If he doesn’t already have something, I hope this and other Sheriffs can use this issue to rally support, and donations to initiate the formation of a Sheriff’s Posse, that is separate from a Reserve Deputy program. They only need a meeting place, and a part time designated Deputy coordinator. It takes time to organize and train. It would provide physical and political support into the future. They will fund and equip themselves to Department standards, and follow existing, and then new policy. I would also consider conversing with other departments of similar size and thinking, and exchange notes. I’m sure they would welcome the phone call.

5. I guess there’s still a few REAL men in this country and Sheriff Jenkins is one of them. Good for the sheriff. I have to wonder though what exactly the good sheriff has in mind when he says he will deputize thousands of citizens. Could it be for the purpose of those deputies to physically stand up against other law enforcement agencies bent on disarming citizens?

   1. I took it as a work-around, whereas the “Deputies” would not be subject to having their weapons confiscated. The mans got balls, no doubt.

6. I enjoy reading what “Top Economists” say, but I have to take them with a grain of salt. It seems to me that if you are top in your field of economics you would already be rich and not have to work for some corporation or university. Kind of reminds one of when you hear that unnamed experts are quoted as saying this and that by the news outlets. Do not bet the farm on what others say without doing your homework.
