Geez, they had this hype in the late 60's, early 70's. They opened up Fort Knox, took a public delegation in there, documented it on camera, all was as it should be. Same paranoia, different decade.
@FrccI agree. A handful of men already control the planet."THE WALL STREET JOURNAL reported, a recent study found that the top .01% or 14,000 American families hold 22.2% of wealth — the bottom 90%, or over 133 million families, just 4% of the nation's wealth."

Unfortunately, this goes against the republican / libertarian / Alex Jones agenda that wants lower taxes for the elites. Only the democrats want to tax the ultra rich.
That sounds like a conflict of interest for sure.Just like how Ron Paul favors a return to the gold standard despite how he and his followers already own a s**tload of gold.
WTF has my understanding of society got anything to do with it? I understand that society is f**ked up but we need to get realistic now, if we are ever going to change. So what if this guy has glasses and looks like your typical nerd, his telling the truth and that is the only thing that should matter. If you don't like the guy or the way he is presenting his information than you are in your right to make your own presentation. But doing nothing and criticizing the rest who actually are doing what they can is low, real f**king low.

Yeah, and look how well the idiotic comment is doing on this thread, because all Ron Paul supporters are the same! Oh, wait...

Nope. A guy offered to pay, himself, for a real audit, but the government said "no." Then ignoramuses called those who doubt all the gold is there "paranoid."<a class="user" href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article5989271.ece" rel="nofollow">http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and ...</a> There hasn't been an audit since the Eisenhower Administration. Your reference to a photo opportunity does NOT count as an audit, much less an independent audit.
