This is but a blog post of graphic images with no accompanying commentary. It's intent is to illustrate how far off the proverbial path we are from the historical evidence of holding gold. Central bank gold reserves are perilously close to disaster, if not already with one step into the dark abyss. Each image should have the source link embedded should you want to review the context in which the image was set.
An ethical person - like a politician, banker or lawyer - may know right from wrong, but unlike many of them, a moral person lives it. An Americanist first already knows that. Bankers and their government agents will always act in their own best interests. Any residual benefit flowing down to the citizens by happenstance will just be litter.
