    So one post is about how the sequester hurts some comic book store owner (no idea how that works, but whatever). And the next one is about how the sequester actually helped the Treasury pay back a small piece of it's debt for the first time since 2007.

    :confused:

    You should probably look up the two states that have passed legislation to accept gold and silver as currency, and the 12 other states pending legislation.

    I think this means we need to sequester more govt spending.

    If you are referring to my post about the birther case getting to the alabama supreme court... I am not predicting Obama will be removed from office... I was simply pointing out the feds might be thinking some serious unrest could happen.

    Regarding my being a birther... that is patently ridiculous.
    Until a court actually has an authenticated piece of evidence showing where Obama is born how the heck would anyone really know where he was born. He could have been born in HI, he could been born where the previous owner of Social Security number was born. He could have been born where his Kenyan grandmom (or relative) said he was born until she corrected herself. He could been born in HI. I really do not know.

    Did you believe Bush when he said things? When it come to politicians you must not trust but verify.

    As usual you've guessed wrong. I don't own a single once of bullion. I think I do have a small silver bar my granddad sent me years ago though.

    Gold has a mystical value that wood (fiber) does not. ; )

    You betcha. But we're just starting down that path, Europe is quite a bit farther along it--how are they doing?

    Actually if/when society as we know it should ever collapse. Wood will probably be more valuable than gold, dumb ass.

    as you know my remedy is tax cuts and capped spending.

    the countries in europe who cuts taxes and controlled spending are the one who have recovered.

    the ones who raised taxed are the ones who are the relative losers. (last time I checked).

    England tried a tax on the wealthy. They proved that revenues go down when you raise taxes... once again.


    raising taxes when you have a spending problem is stupid if you your tax increase cuts gpd... as Obama's advisor Romer's study showed.

    They're also raising taxes quite a bit on the wealthy. How's that working out?
