Slow demise of the mighty greenback

Silver long-term, not short-term. Right now, as of today, silver is 2.6 times what it was in early 2001. That's a 160% increase over eight years. Any banks give that kind of return? No. Did the stock market? No. Do I wish I'd bought a buttload when it was $4.50/ounce spot price? Yes. Am I buying more now? Yes.

Silver isn't worth any more than it was in 2001, it's the dollar that is worth that much less.

If currencies were expressed in their value compared to gold, instead of seeing a trend where currencies bounce around in value, we would see a trend where all currencies plummet in value.

The current fixation of the FX markets to compare their currencies to the Dollar, or to the Euro is a participation in the greatest scam ever perpetuated against everyone in the entire world.

And THAT is the great secret the money changers wish will never get out.
