  • No. Its BS. And giving fat cats money to buy silver and gold.

  • the financial system is based on air and confidence bred by speculators and you are just a puppett of the speculation which gives the power to the IMF and other evils in the world. when you are on you d bed bernanki you will hear the cries of the ones you walked on

  • All these people saying that hyperinflation will destroy America have no clue what they are talking about. The history of the US dollar is very complex, and saying "the constitution says we have to use gold or silver" doesn't get us anywhere. The gold standard is STUPID. Thank GOD Nixon got us off of it, it's probably the only good thing that he did do in office. Also, Ron Paul and Peter Schiff don't have all the answers. Sorry

  • Bilderberger hoe

  • 100 years ago, a $20 bill, and a $20 gold coin would buy a cow. They were measures of the same thing. Today, a $20 gold coin will still buy a cow, while a $20 bill won't get you down the frozen food aisle. They have the same name (dollar) in their definition - how can this be?

    Because the "dollar" is now worthless. It's a FIAT money system, and each time they print more, the stuff you have becomes worth LESS.

    Bernanke wants to print and issue MORE, and we'll all have LESS as a result.

  • Bernanke is the FED..... the FED issues our money. The stimulus says "print more money" and Bernanke benefits. It's that simple.

    Our Constitution defines money as "gold or silver", and the definition of a "dollar" is a measure of those metals. We went off the gold standard, and now the "dollar" is a measure of nothing.

    Can an "inch" be a measure of nothing? When you think of a "dollar" as an "inch" of money (both measures) what are we measuring? Can an inch shrink due to inflation?

  • Now that the country is in an uproar about Obama's lack of experience and intelligence (regardless of his smoke and mirrors speaking tactics, or ability to use proper english), it makes you wonder how many of the people complaining put us in this situation by voting for him. I'd say many of them are the ones who can't read this and don't even know what politics is. But they were promised Air Jordans and Playstations. Can this country start to get real instead of voting for all the wrong reasons?

  • yes
