Thinking Like "Fat Tony" (James Turk - Sep 9, 2008)

BTW the much-celebrated "US Mint Working Stock" that James Turk wrote that article so glowingly about that had been unchanged since 2006 until the time of his writing then, IS NOW, STILL, in 2013 "miraculously" reported to be the exact same 2,783,218.656 Troy Ounces!

(or a cement-cast of Marilyn Monroe's butt on Hollywood Blvd.)
Perhaps they think this rare and special collection of artistically inspired reports might fetch them some gold at Sotheby's someday.
Could it be some marvellous modern miracle of "Exactly Just To The Second For Years Deliveries" ??
Although I cannot at all agree with James Turk's grossly erroneous conclusions about (us all having a publicly owned and operated) central reserve bank, (as opposed to the criminal private ones who have had us) I'll tell ya what Fat Tony and Dr John would both have to say, now...

A publicly owned and operated, for public profit, Central Reserve Banking system (and money) would make taxation obsolete. Julius Caesar, Henry 1st, George Washington and Abe Lincoln all proved it, and JFK might have again...
Gold has always been the problem and never been the solution. A Medium of Labour-Resource Exchange IS what it IS, it need not ever also be anything else (that can be easily monopolized) that it isn't!
