The state's assets should be where they are under the control and protection of the state.

Good luck on that. Even the Germans can’t get their gold back within twenty years.

Good for Texas - we don't need to keep our gold in New York City. And good for AZ for considering gold and silver as legal tender.

Why would anyone in their right might allow those thieving conniving banksters at the Federale Reserve to posses and control your gold? That is nuts as nuts can be

If your gold is in my bank then it’s my gold not yours.

Your gold is in the New York Federal Reserve?

Sure it is.....

Wow... This is a very good idea. I’d love to see other states follow suit and see if the “Federal Reserve Bank of New York” has all the gold it claims it has.

I think if it’s THERE...bring back to Texas.

Sadly, I’m not sure there is any gold there. Or any where else.

and Perry really thinks that the Gold is still there?

I’d laugh, only it ain’t funny.

That is assuming it still exists in the US. It’s more likely to be in China or Saudi Arabia.

But tungsten is nice, too.

Every state that owns gold should do the same thing. Keep it within the boundaries of the state. Every state needs to prepare to exist without Federal Handouts and using their own assets.

One day, the dollar is likely to just collapse. Any governor and state legislature that is not preparing for how to survive in that scenario is not fulfilling their duty.

With questionable speculation practices (fear pushing, strained analyses, et al), instances of fake bullion being discovered, and housing the bullion in a State/City who cannot be trusted with freedom, it makes perfect sense to take possession of your bullion and keep it away from these financial bandits.

DAMN RIGHT! We need to retrieve our gold and store it physically within the borders of the Republic of Texas.

It would not surprise me if all of the physical gold is not there and has been attached as collateral for some New York bank’s outstanding loans.

I’m a native Texan and I think it’s well past the time that we become our own free republic once again.

Perry has become a beacon of hope for us Texans.

The funny part about the Fed is they were willing to hold any gold deposits “free of charge” as long as an entity submitted a certain minimum weight. Nations, etc that couldn’t afford such insane physical security gladly gave it to the Fed to hold for “free”.

Suckers!
