Who was it a while back saying that Beck and his gold predictions were off base?

I don;t think anyone was saying he was off base. I am sure the company that pays him as a mouthpiece was saying everything. That's the problem. You're supposedly getting your "news" from a guy, who is hawking gold because he is paid to hawk gold on a news program.

That's the issue.

1980 all over again, without the old reason to own gold, inflation was the reason then , now it is lack of inflation( deflation). Gold is a place to hide wealth when the rich hold out from investing in jobs related investments until they get their extended tax breaks again. The rich do nothing unless they has the unfair advantage on their side. Yes , the same reason every civilization fails when the monet is in the hands of few.

if we took government out of the equation, this wouldn't be an issue

HPD, gold will be back at $450 a year after the tax breaks are renewed.

I've wanted math controlled interest rates and tax rates for 40 years, get people away from deciding these things and you'll have no more corruption and crime. Let the economy decide, not idiots who have to buy votes.

"Hawks gold" on a news program? I thought those were paid advertisements during a political talk show?

Should have read this more carefully.

I don't get my news or any info from Beck. I said that somebody else was saying that.

Fox is 100% and MSNBC is about 60% infomercial now. The media is the corporations that pay for the ads and their political desires are hawked day in and out.

The USA has a 6% savings rate all at once, no wonder we'll never get out of the consumer depression we're in. This economy can't work without a savings rate of at least minus 2%. lmao@thesillyboomers

We have shown no ability to control the investment biz and we never will, they got the first step way back and will continue to buy their way out of any attempt to curb their questionable activities, they own the tea party and the future of any gov that gets propped up in front of the lambs that still vote for them. Bigbiz uber alles.

Until the tax break breaks, gold will be the preferred storage for money that could be loaned to small biz, but at these low %rates, who is going to loan money to a small biz that can't sell or do services for people that are saving rather than spending. A consumer economy is not and has never worked without increasing debt being taken by the prime consumers, it's got to change, but just in a different direction than the old buy your way to happiness group boomers practiced through out their earlier lives.
