I can see why Bernakle was appointed, he is able to keep his composure under the hard fire of Ron Paul for the most part. After he lies about gold not being money he does get a little nerous and makes the mistake of saying gold is an asset. If you think about it he contradicted himself. What makes gold an asset??? I would love to hear Bernake squirm through that answer!

So? Would you rather Obama owned the Fed then individual investors like you and me? We can go and buy shares and be part owners of federal reserve. I fail to see how having a bunch of politicians control it then a bunch of individual investors.

What? No gold is still money in this economy because it is based on goods and services, in fact it used to be more clear when all U.S tender was backed by gold. The main reason most businesses use cash is because it’s convenient but it has become increasingly clear that it’s not reliable.

He is also a liar and an accomplice to thievery. Don’t get all uppity because you read a news paper. The FED is a privately owned bank committing crimes against the American people, and for that reason they are committing treason.

If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered.I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs”

Guys, improve your website’s google ranking does not need to be difficult (I used to feel it did). I’ll give you some advice right now. Search a SEO services called MoboRank. Seriously, that seo provider has changed my entire life. I probably shouldn’t even be mentioning it because I do not want a bunch of other folks out there running the same “game” but whatever, I am just in a good mood today so I’ll share the wealth haha.

From your previous post: “Gold is not money”. that’s all you’ve been saying this entire time! Just because Ben Bernanke has a ton of degrees, doesn’t mean he knows what’s best for the economy (Ron Paul has a doctorate). Bernanke is fooling himself! It doesn’t take a genius to understand that creating money out of thin air destroys it’s value and that’s why the value of gold rises against the dollar. Why do people hold gold during bad economic times? Because it’s REAL money; it has value.

I havent said gold is not money, anything could be money as long as the people accept it as a medium of exchange, like cigarettes in POW camps. What I’m saying is, right now, in this economy, gold is not money, the dollar is the money and that’s what Bernanke is saying. Bernanke is by far the most educated economist in the U.S, has gotten degrees in econ from Princeton and MIT, is the Chairman of the CENTRAL BANK. Do you really think he wouldn’t know what money is? damn, educate YOURSELF

gold, silver and other precious metals hold value because they have inherent value in themselves, unlike paper. if you look at say, the liberty dollar, it would be a good chunk of silver in each one. even if nobody accepted it, you still have solid silver to trade with.
by comparison, the paper in a $100 bill is worth about nothing

Why does gold (Or any other kind of currency) hold value? Is it because we simply add a rule to it and say so? I mean I could attain a simple rock/paper/item and apply a rule to it and say “this holds value”.
Would someone please enlighten me on this topic? (I’m not a troll, I’m just curious). Any answers are appreciated.

Pro abortion myself, gold is not a base metal it’s a noble metal and I say fuck yeah, I absolutely believe in evolution, I belief in global warming but not sure about absolute cause and whether there will be feedback that will suppress it in the long run, he is less of a racist than you, agnostic myself which means I don’t pretend to understand things beyond my human comprehension, the cost of the magazine would have been negligible compared to the gains made for gold purchases by adherents.

Holy Smokes. List of things and reasons not to like Ron Paul. Against Abortion, believes in a base metal standard, does not believe in evolution, rejects global warming, rejects pensions but accept the money for himself, is a racist, supported and got support from racist groups. Is a fundamentalist christian. Conned innocent people out of money by getting them to purchase a doom and gloom magazine about impending financial collapse (in the 1970s)& produced a son into the same shit.
