"And maybe it shouldn’t be surprising that people in China and much of the rest of the world have struggled out from under the boot of the state and, becoming more-free, are also becoming more-prosperous.

 

"Wouldn’t it be a sad irony — sad for us, anyway — if the outcome of this dynamic should be that China increasingly embraces free markets and economic freedom, while the United States continues its downward spiral into statism?

Peter Grandich – Patience Precious Metals Investors Time Is On Your Side

Peter Grandich – Patience Precious Metals Investors Time Is On Your Side | Gold and What Moves it. | Scoop.it

Peter Grandich took some time from his busy day to talk to us. The real economy isn’t growing. Central banks continue record purchases of gold. The Euro is again under pressure. Inflation is rising and will continue to rise at increasing rates. Peter believes the raging 12 year precious metals bull will continue on unabated. The battle lines are drawn now. We have a conflict starting between the makers and the takers. A kind of Atlas Shrugged scenario is unfolding and once the government grows to 50 percent of the economy, the end game is near. Just look at France!

Jim on the drama of Euroland, Russia, Great Britain « Jim Sinclair's Mineset

In answer to a not and link a reader sent to Jim Sinclair on Great Britain starting some MOPE on Russia, he writes:

 

GB knows that Euroland is headed towards the BRIC nations as part of a strategy towards the ascendancy of the Euro versus the US dollar to the reserve currency of choice versus the dollar, a reserve currency by default. This strategy can now be seen as you review the percentage of fiat currency versus gold, marked to the market that the Euro represents.

 

The British pound does not want to be a lesser citizen of the new economic power currency.

Hal's insight:

The perceptions of the people are something the governments are constantly looking to shape. Shame it's not the other way around.
