The government would try to shut that down ASAP, but of course will be unsuccessful, since they'll be too broke to enforce paper for goods.

I'll always have a choice, my services and skills will always be worth more than gold during an emergency situation. If I can't buy bread I'll make my own.

That Bingo board pretty much covered all the *******ed excuses against gold the left has thrown around

Is there one for growing your own food? Cause apparently growing your own food is also seen as kooky and tinfoiled like owning gold amongst the suburbanite and urban liberals

LOVE that bingo board. Had to ask the poster for permission to redistribute, but it's pretty clever!

Well, liberal gold is more valuable than conservative gold.

Hint: I'm not an accountant and would be a horrible customer service rep because I refuse to put up with people's BS. I don't live in the city and I'm prepared for long term interruptions in food and water supplies, gold or no gold.
