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

Is that your article or just offering links here and there as an expression of your opinion? |
The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; second is war. Both bring a temporary (and false) prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunities. |

Does it matter? What difference does it make if a particular article is representative of someone's viewpoint or is merely linked to stimulate reflective thinking?  |
Hoard now and hold on!

I for one am just glad that anyone takes the time to find and review topics pertinent to our hobby and post them, because it saves us the most precious commodity of all... TIME! Something that not even Hoard has enough of.  |
Hoard now and hold on!

In the MSM, opinion and the news sometimes (or much of the time) get so blurred together you can't tell which is which.

I change with the times- but like silver coins found in your change I stay the same. ***************** The United States of America started out as the new Republic of Rome.
Will The United States of America end up as the New Imperial Rome? |

$17.50 an ounce in 2008 dollars (because 2009 is not completed yet) would be $6.20 in 1980's dollars.
So our $17.50 price for silver, which is pretty good since the 1980's crash, is small potatos compared to $50/oz 1980's dollars price, |

Here is something else to consider- they are using government inflation numbers, not shadowstats inflation numbers
You must be logged in to see this link.
The CPI calculated the old 'honest' way (relatively honest I guess) inflation from 1980-2007 would be 7.358 (The article is dated from 2007 so I will take for granted inflation hasn't spiked too much in 2 years.)
$17.50 in 2007 dollars divided by 7.358 equals roughly $2.37 in 1980 dollars.
If the shadowstats figures are accurate (and I don't doubt that they are) this means either silver is dirt cheap or the dollar isn't what it used to be, or both. |

Footnote: I had to do the calculations myself- $850 multiplied by 7.358 equals $6,255 $6,255 being the true inflation adjusted rate for gold's peak price. I figured 7.358 is the real inflation rate from 1980-2007.

30 cents an Ounce, with silver dropping to it lowest point in 1934. Silver ran low until after WW2. |
