The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life. Theodore Roosevelt

| I think they are finally giving their own people a chance to own silver, so when their government needs money. They can simply take it away from their people. Why waste the governments money, when you can sucker your sheep into buying it for you. |

I hope that's not what we are doing in the USA. |

I seriously doubt that would happen here, but, never say never. I don't fear physical confiscation any where near as much as I fear a more back door approach.
Taxation, regulation, licensing and documentation is what makes me nervous.
The State could mandate all PM's have to be registered, owners must purchase renewable licenses and permits to own, transfer and store PM's. Fully disclosing all transfers. With the mandatory book keeping and actual metals available for inspection at any time by the authorities.
There would be;
Storage taxes Holding taxes Transfer taxes Profit taxes
Registration fees Inspection fees Document fees Transportation fees
Non registered PM's would become contraband. Undocumented transfers would be illegal. Confiscated on site with out compensation, or just a huge penalty fee.
The possibilties are endless...

| I saw and bought some Silver Pandas in Beijing. I would not say there was a massive rush on them by the locals. They did have a very cool room dedicated to gold bullion. All seemed to be in grams - credit suisse etc bars. |
