    I'm not sure why? It has nothing to do with what is happening in Zimbabwe.

    Bern replied to a thread GOLD $1600 in Economy & Markets
    Gold closed the week at $2,434.73 at the SGE (China) - roughly $90 higher than spot through US trading hours. Now er got escalation in the middle east (Iran/Israel). That's a lot of rocket fuel for gold I would think.

    Looks like gold is going to close out the week near $2,400. It's still looking strong even with the dollar index rising.

    Zimbabwe has announced the replacement of the Zimbabwe dollar (ZW) with a new gold standard currency (ZiG) backed by a basket of gold and USD. They are renaming the existing ZiG digital gold token as GBDT (gold backed digital token). https://www.pmbug.com/threads/zimbabwe-made-gold-legal-tender-and-reintroduces-gold-standard.4966/post-98582

    Thanks, but I don't think it ever left. They have just ramped it up lately. I didn't follow up in this thread, but the banking system has been busy developing debanking rules based upon anti-money laundering (AML) concerns that have been debanking all manner of small business that are heavy cash operations including coin shops that buy and sell physical gold and silver. It's an insidious disenfranchisement of free market trade.

    Thread title probably needs an update. Gold at $2,280 ATH and eyeing $2,300 ... Maybe $2,500 by end of year?

    Word from Russian propaganda/news channels is that the Ukranian embassy/consulate in Tajikistan had published and then deleted something on their website trying to recruit or foment Russian action. Details are sketchy. Take with a grain of salt.

    Zero reserve requirement does not "expire". It's still the current regulatory regime. While banks are not required to maintain any specific reserve ratio any more, they do have to manage liquidity. They (the banks) are fighting right now to avoid having to comply with Basel III standards on that front as American banks do not have the reserves/liquidity to meet the Basel III requirements. Last I saw, it looked like the Fed was going to neuter the requirements. I wrote a bit about this issue here: https://www.pmbug.com/threads/what-is-risky-in-life-zero-reserve-or-full-reserve-banking.5723/ Also, the banking laws changed from bail-out to bail-in circa 2013: https://www.pmbug.com/threads/no-banks-are-safe-bail-ins-fdic-limits-systemic-risks.2237/

    Thanks to the dollar's role as an international reserve plus Fed QE, the US Treasury Dept really should be printing up 1,000 and even 10,000 dollar bills.

    Trying to disqualify an incumbent politician on a technicality like that is a top tier bitchass move. Anyone supporting Eric Deters supports everything wrong with American politics.

    Quit dividing support for the best candidates. Ron and Rand ftw!
  3. I can try. I haven't seen anything about it yet either. But I already made one diary not that long ago slamming Obama on Iran, but then the administration ended up doing the right thing. I don't have too mcuh time right now to do it though...

    Hi there. Can you write a tactful post on dailykos about Obama's promise to extend the patriot act provisions?
    I notice the silence is deafening over there, but I am not one to write a good diary. Thank you.

Why I Support Ron Paul

by Imperial on 09-10-2011 at 12:56 PM
[Originally posted here, at my personal blog].

Between covering electoral politics on several blogs, getting active in the Republican Party, and attending an extremely liberal and politically active college, one question appears often: who do you support for President?

That question came up again while I was watching the last presidential primary debate. I was surrounded by friends of numerous political varieties, and we went around a circle explaining our candidate

Vote on PPP to poll New Mexico- for RP 2012!

by Imperial on 02-02-2011 at 12:23 AM
It really is important to go vote here and get New Mexico polled. PPP has been doing their polls in an interesting manner lately.

Remember all of the buzz about Ron Paul running for Senate? While it appears that he will end up not pulling the trigger on that run, it did force the pundits to do something interesting: Dr. Paul was in the news. The blogosphere lit up with mentions of the good doctor possibly running for Senate and being a frontrunner. A strong performance like this,
