Gr8 vid, but I disagree with a few points, the problem started in 1913 with the "Federal" Reserve, and DO NOT risk your money in ETFs, buy physical gold and silver!

the only thing you can count on is- Silver is silver...gold is gold...If you have it in your hand it is what it is..I wouldnt mind having piles of it.

The origin of our debt is an energy debt to the world.

We need a Declaration of Energy Independence.

That's the only thing that will get the ball rolling in the right direction.

Why is it that we think that the credit expansion of the last 30 years hasn't done anything to prices? How can prices keep going higher if you take credit from the system? I don't think that hyperinflationists and stagflationists really sit and think about this. We are and will be deflating for years to come. Prices should come down somewhat. However, please note that inflation/deflation does not have direct impact on prices, and that it is the amount of money+credit in the system.

@JasonRSmyth But that's just a meaningless tautology. You can count on a CNC machine being a CNC machine and a house being a house, so what?

Gold has historically been a spectacularly poor inflation hedge and it's value is largely speculative premium, its "moneyness", rather than value derived from any actual use.

Silver is an important industrial metal; it's not like gold, it's more like copper. You have to examine substitutes, geological prospects, trends in industry.

This video is very SUSPICIOUS. Its trying to sell SHARES in gold products, which will have no value in the event of a currency collapse. REAL GOLD is what you want to hve in the scenario depiced here. Its videos like this that make me wonder if there are people manipulating a BUBBLE with all this scary talk.

BEWARE

I think to buy gold or silver is can be a big mistake as well because the price of gold for example is moving by other economy indicators as well !!

Try Elvis's American Trilogy for a great take!
