Financial Authorities Acting Above The Law
Above the law – that's where financial authorities, politicos, and bureaucrats think they are – a farce justified on the premise extreme times justify extreme measures. Moreover, they routinely lie and cheat the public out their savings to protect their own positions, as opposed to living up to oath's of office and serving the public's interest. Some may say this has always been true, and perhaps this is the case, even within our modern era of globalization, technological advancement, and modern society. And if you so take a close look at it, things have been getting worse in this respect since Nixon dropped the Gold Standard in 1971, along with a loss of freedom and liberties
You see the thinking is Western society has been completely corrupted on one level (officialdom), and is brain-dead on another (the public), evidenced in the government's ability to not pay its international debts with tangible (non-depreciable) money, along with the banking community's ability to steel your savings every day with this same depreciation. And to this day Western bankers continue attempting to push their self-serving agenda on unsuspecting populations under the guise of globalization, and are successful at it. So the question then arises – why not keep lying? Indeed – why not – as power corrupts – and they do
While it's true these concepts might be too course for the average man, not that they would care if still fat, perhaps if put in different terms, and certainly once the economy begins to suffer on a broader level, people might once again begin to care more about protecting their civil liberties, wealth, and savings. This is why to continue this fraud, gold (and silver) must be contained, so that the biggest lie of all when it comes to the larger financial system, and the public's wealth, is not exposed. So, this is why the bureaucracy will bold face lie until they are blue, because to do the opposite would trigger a profound unraveling of the financial system on their watch, which would be political suicide on multiple levels.
And this might be especially true if related derivatives positions in the FX (currencies) market(s) begin to suffer from counter party risk. Just try and imagine what would happen if at the same moment, due to the highly integrated nature of counter-party risk, we have enough bids to take out all existing physical supplies of both gold and silver in ten-minutes. This is possible you should know, because there is hundreds of trillions worth of whatever fiat currency you wish to talk about in the world that will all be looking for a home at the same time at some point in the not too distant future. Under such conditions silver could gap higher by $10 in a New York minute.
So, if history is a good guide then, where we have a very good example at present in the energies market, both the bankers in New York and politicos in Washington are going to find out they are not above the law. And this includes not only manmade laws, but those in nature as well. Because once we humans begin to panic, crazy things begin to happen, like seeing crude oil making a b-line for $150, or gold shooting past $1,000 as if the four-figure barrier didn't even exist, if we may talk about the metal of kings for just a moment. That's the big number in case you have forgotten – $1,000 smackeroos. Once gold gets past this pricing hurdle, which should be no problem ounce a panic sets into the market(s), you will know the big squeeze is on, with a great deal of blue-sky potential here to say the least.
