I thought so too, but who knows what’s in these massive bills or what can be construed to mean what the regulators want.

Finger-in-the-dike attempt to prop up failing currencies.

It won’t work, and it’s no substitute for sound and responsible fiscal management by governments - which is very nearly an antiquated thing of the past.

It certainly plays no part in the deliberations of the American government.

People will simply buy jewelry if EU banks limit the purchase of gold coins. Will gov limit ones ability to buy gold jewelry? Super rich will be pissed.

Holding precious metals (gold, silver) as chains with a specific weight for each link is an age old method of liquidating bullion and coins.

(It’s good to know a jewelry maker.)

the new Obamacare legislation has embedded a mechanism to be implemented on January 1, 2012 that will make it difficult for individuals here at home to privately purchase precious metals assets totaling over $600.

When gold is outlawed, only outlaws will have gold.
