Maybe they will pick up some Liberty Dollars to diversify!

The FBI just raided and confiscated Liberty Dollar last week. Took all the gold and silver that backed the currency. They also took several tons of new paper currency with Ron Paul’s face on them.

Now, however, the Fed is cutting rates to prop up the slowing U.S. economy and forestall damage from the U.S. housing downturn. That's precisely the wrong prescription for economies trying to tame galloping growth, such as those in the Persian Gulf.

This description of US linkage to Arab economics is intellectual whiplash at the very least....Fed action on interest rates is too little too late. The housing bust is in full swing. Let the Arabs dither and dance - they don't make anything - just trouble.
