Gold ‘s value isn’t there, it’s just a European point of view.
There is nothing in this world that automatically makes gold a superior investment. It’s pretty, it’s heavy, it doesn’t travel well, and it isn’t scarce. Indian Women own more gold than anyone on planet earth.
All those years ago when Europe had nothing, they sent out their soldiers to steal whatever was considered something of value.
Armies funded by Kings and bankers were sent to kill, conquer and bring home whatever resources they could get to Europe. Gold has financed all wars, and will always be associated with warfare, colonization, racism, and domination. Belief in white Jesus linked to racism.
What’s worse is Gold doesn’t have “Utility value” and the price is manipulated.

“A lack of transparency, a lack of enforcement of law and a compliant media which failed to ask the hard questions and do basic investigative journalism led to the price fixing continuing and the manipulation continuing unchecked. The London Gold Fix has been manipulated for ten years, explains Bloomberg. Believe it or not, the global benchmark prices for gold and silver, the “London spot” prices, are not set by “trading,” but by a small cabal of European banks that get together twice a day and decide what they think the price of gold and silver should be.
I’ve been on the net since 1991 until the present.
At this point – we have been totally fucked by zuckerberg who continues making money without going to jail for poisoning democracy.
I remember when ….

Make the world a better place
Future Insight Release 1.2 n August 1994
Preamble
The central event of the 20th century is the overthrow of matter. In technology, economics, and the politics of nations, wealth — in the form of physical resources — has been losing value and significance. The powers of mind are everywhere ascendant over the brute force of things. <snip>

|FINANCIAL LITERACY|
“Technology is dominated by two types of people: those who understand what they do not manage, and those who manage what they do not understand.”
We all know that Bitcoin’s price-discovery is unencumbered by any perceived utility-value. It’s just pure money.
The blockchain solves everything.
Bitcoin will become worth more than gold, because it is born of the internet, it is the financialization of money that works across countries. It doesn’t weigh anything, it doesn’t have any storage costs or transportation problems. It is decentralized, where no cabal of bankers can manipulate it.
Bitcoin has nothing to do with war and death, it is about hope and is optimism.
In America today there are more young people alive than boomers who really do understand what they are reading here on this page and that the transfer of wealth is happening right now.
The revolutionary promise of the internet fullfilled . . . We are the bank.

OPINION WSJ God, Puerto Rico and Bankruptcy Law

I see restoring fiscal responsibility on the island as a deeply Christian activity.
The Bible recognizes that debt can be beneficial but is dangerous if misused. In the ancient world, delinquent borrowers were often forced into slavery. The Old Testament curbed these risks by forbidding God’s people from charging interest on loans to one another and by barring creditors from taking a debtor’s grinding stone—that is, his livelihood—as collateral for a loan. It also provided relief from financial distress. Slave owners were required to release Jewish slaves and their debts after the debtor had served for seven years. Every 49 years brought an even more sweeping release, the Jubilee. In Leviticus 25, the Israelites are instructed to blow a trumpet and “proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all of its inhabitants,” which included the release of slaves and debt relief.
Although many Christians don’t view these Old Testament rules as binding, the general principles remain relevant. And they are echoed in Jesus’ teaching. In the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus taught his disciples to ask God to “forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.” Several of his best-known parables also emphasize the importance of debt forgiveness. In Matthew 18, a servant who is unable to pay his obligations begs his master for more time. Moved by this plea, the master agrees to forgive the debt altogether. But when the servant refuses to give his own debtor more time to pay a much smaller debt, the master rescinds his promise to forgive the servant’s debt and throws him into prison.
