wonder how grocery stores will give change on gold? In the olden days people used to file down the coins and cheat people.
If paper is backed by gold is the model - for this size economy a dollar bill would be worth maybe an atom of gold.....
These people sound like Khmer Rouge - They want to return to some "Year Zero" formula.
The old timers used to carry vials of gold dust around, and pulled a pinch for this or that which was weighed since everyone carried with them a small scale. But don't you dare sneeze during the transaction or there goes a month's hard work. The people who really made out in those days were the floor sweepers.
LOL!! You really only know enough to be childishly paranoid. The water soluable percentage of naturally occuring metals is not what you imagine or no water would be safe to drink.
The rest of your childish innuendo must just be a manifestation of your mental malady.

Wow! You have really been sucked into the the paper scam. The "economy" has become unsustainable even with limitless printing of paper funny money. The relation of real money to funny money is about to change more drastically than it already has.
But, you go ahead and stack your paper; you can always use it to wipe.
LOL!! I have no idea what that nonsense means but it sounds as though you have become frustrated with yourself because you argue stupidly and you are now resorting to an emotional outburst of disgusting and childish innuendo.
Hey before the govt printed money every store or bank in America printed its own money.
There were 30,000 different currencies and denominations floating around - imagine the opportunities for counterfeiters.
Von Mises associates any Government involvement in markets as "Socialism" , to mislead people into thinking Government is the enemy , when infact empire is the enemy and empire is Privatized.
The people in Somalia didn't invent the Cotton gin, Steam Engine, Telegraph, Light Bulb, Telephone, Internal Combustion engine, the Automobile, the Airplane, Assembly line, Radio, Television, the Vacuum Tube, transistor, Micro-processor, penicillin, antibiotics, and too many other things to list here.
America and the rest of the western world invented these things. We invented most of them when government was largely irrelevant in our lives.
The very idea that you would equate western free markets with tribal backwaters demonstrates that you are not worth wasting time on.
So F-off, bozo.

The govts of the USA and abroad invested heavily in the development of most if not all these inventions including the invention of the computer and internet.

That is exactly what scares the crap out of the psychotic, money mongering, human trash with delusions of godhood. They witnessed freedom loving Americans come together like no society in the history of this planet and project a will and an industrial might during WWII that has never been equaled. This human tripe has no other choice except to bring down America before they are destroyed by the decendents of those freedom loving Americans. They are scared stupid and that is certainly evident given the present day events.
Out of whack, the new norm or the lowest it will ever be again...
If the Fed pursues a "Quantitative Easing" #3, we'll see gold at $2,500 an ounce.
We will also see mass hysteria on left, as they channel the dead ghost of FDR to bash "speculators" to try and shift blame from government boobs and tyrants to the market.
Fortunately, the government no longer has monopoly control of the media. So, the outcome is going to be very different than it was in the 1930s. Very different.

In the 1930s, people in cahoots with the government had a monopoly in the media. Americans didn't get the truth. This is no longer the case. This scares the crap out of the government tyrants.

Show your sources on how government investment created the Automobile, Airplane, Assembly Line, Light Bulb, Telephone, etc.
Govt built roads that made the auto practical to own, the Wright Brothers would have gone nowhere if not for govt military contracts and the govt subsidized airports and so on. In cases where there was no govt subsidy the fact that the govt enforced patent rights is a major catalyst for innovation. The assembly line, sad that you do not know this - was not invented by Hentry Ford and existed in one form or another throughout time.

The military played a major role in the development of the internet so conservative would have a place to meet and complain about government.

Yeah. Planes and automobiles would never have been invented if it weren't for the government. We would still be riding horses right fool? You are really cranky and really dumb. I pity you fool.

If not for the military and govt subsidies (US Post saved the airline businesses at one point when they initiated air mail at a loss) we would still be flying bi-planes made of cloth and wood. If not for orderly and well built roads by the govt automobiles would not be as wide spread as they are today. You seem to forget that the national road system was only built in the USA after WW2 by that commie Ike Eisenhower.

Is a license required to mine on your own? If not, it will soon, imho.
Not usually on private, sometimes a permit on certain public lands. You can still place a claim on most BLM or Forest Service lands if you can find any areas that are unclaimed that have anything worth prospecting. I'm talking pick and shovel type mining not anything requiring the removal and processing of large amounts of material.
Interesting, I'd guess that if gold prices skyrocket BLM and Fed Service lands will "lawyer up".
Most are already claimed, but they do take some off the list of claimables occasionally and occasionally they add some. They actually do land swaps and deals with the lumber companies ALL THE TIME.
If congress creates an reserve or park in an area, then the status of most claims there are changed according to the terms listed in the legislation.

Right now our lands are being used as assets for debt collateral. The Chinese want them as pristine as possible. Heh but that's a small price for the financing of wars that keeps the world safe for 'free markets'.
Govt built roads that made the auto practical to own...
No. You said: "The govts of the USA and abroad invested heavily in the development of most if not all these inventions". You are completely wrong, so now you are changing your story.
None of the game changing technologies I listed had any government investment. Governments may have been one of the customers for many of these technologies. So what? They were created by private sector without government investment. BOZO.

Real, freedom loving Americans should refuse to drive on them socialist highways.

Or use those socialist airports, or use communications involving satellites that are monitored by our socialist military to keep them from hitting each other.

If they really loved freedom, they'd boycott the internet.

There is no change in my story. You are just being a know-nothing.

Fake, profit hating Americans should insist on walking only on them there communist hiking paths.
That doesn't make sense.

We commies can walk on trails and drive on highways since they are both built and maintained by communist tax dollars.
And we can enjoy ourselves because we're not consumed with bitterness.
Let's not forget our socialist sidewalks, sewers, and home invasion by socialist water.

I think the "socialist" canard is used to hide the fact that blacks are allowed to walk on the same side of the streets as whites, so these GOP-tards want to get rid of the sidewalks.......
