1. do you know how a no confidence vote works?
with a no confidence vote parliament holds the no confidence vote, if a proposal by the PM doesn't pass.

not the general public.

14. obviously you don't
otherwise you would have never made your statement

A vote of no confidence is not held by the people, but by parliament. So how exactly how could have "we" gotten rid of them?

6. A lot of jewelry has been heading for the melting pot.
I read a story on it the other day. A lot of this gold is heading to China.

8. China just liberalized private gold ownership.
The demand will be overwhelming, especially with Chinese inflation nearing double digits.

5. you know what that means- some say $2500, some say $6000
but that means 1929 redux - and I think it's possible...no jobs , more layoffs, more factory closings, more outsourcing...

not looking good

Silver is still $16.64 , affordable to buy 90 % + pure silver....expected to go
to $26.00 sooner rather than later....prolly go higher than that too cause there is no confidence in the dollar

9. It was a little different back then
In 1929, and until 1934, gold was still 20.67/ounce, the same price it had been since the 1830s.

11. If it keeps going up, I may be buying a mule and some digging equipment
Just so long as I don't run into any banditos without badges.
