For The Love Of Gold

Let’s not dwell on how the sausage is made. On the other hand…let’s. Inspired by the recent “debate” on the MSM over the “filth” demanding a higher “minimum” wage increase, I thought I might show how one of the sectors that I invest in deals with these type of “wage demands”. Some of you are familiar with the “Blood Diamond” controversy and how manipulated that controversy is used to protect the diamond cartel, but some of you may have missed some of the “developing World’s” issues with gold mining by the cartel. An order was placed just before the raid in August 2012 by the South African Police Colonel for 4000 rounds of R5 assault ammo. 

The current investigation is now in the “hearing” phase, but at least arrests were made…..270 colleagues of the slain miners were arrested and charged with their deaths under an apartheid law called ‘common purpose’. These actions effectively ended the strike on the gold mine. “Thank Gold” we were able to prevent these parasites from closing down a mine for that “barbarous relic”. If anyone followed this massacre, they will duly note these were not white on black events but instead they are about Power, Control, and Class…..the age old game of the “Money of Kings”. 

Just a note to those that believe these events are isolated to the developing countries may want to reconsider what the coming Supercycle deflationary wave may bring to many developing countries. The wealth disparity being created by bankers will begin to cause cracks within the fragile relationship of the haves and have nots. Soft marshal law is being incrementally implemented by many Western Governments in anticipation of social breakdown. Will similar scenes occur here if Wal Mart employees become more militant? More and more stress will develop withing the fabric of the “middle class” as stagflationary forces push families to the brink. The Affordable Health Care act is estimated to push health care costs for many families up by over 40%. Of course this will not show up as “inflation”, but it will show up on the “stress” scale.

Militarization of local police departments will continue as “federalization” of law enforcement goes into overdrive. “Peace Keeping” will take an entirely new meaning as we go deeper into the drive to save CONfidence. Just remember your programming. Precious metals are not significant, even though we have had the gold bullion confiscated from at least 4 Middle East countries in the last 4 years. Even though India has implemented four separative directives to stop the flow of gold from the West into their borders. Someone thinks this relic is important enough to murder 34 miners fighting for wanting a living wage.
