if you think for one minute that they don't control the gold you really are just ignorant and naive

There IS NO FREAKING GOLD. If you add up all the gold bars anywhere in circulation in the world I bet it is at about 5 trillion US dollars. Get off the gold thing. There isn't enough to make up the 60 trillion dollars in unfunded obligations of US citizens.

exactly .. no gold since 1934 because it's not their job, the gold is with the treasury department in fort knox ... the original post even states that, so people are reacting to a non-issue.. the gold is precisely where it is supposed to be, under the treasury department in fort knox

The Federal reserve took all the gold in 1930 and plundered it.

We can make a new thread about how the federal reserve is evil and make theories about whether or not the gold is in fort knox .. however..
It's still, at least to me... wise to DENY IGNORANCE and that is what I'm doing by repeating the mantra..
The original post and the subsequent responses talk about how the fed admits it has no gold and people are stunned at this amazing revelation.. this is the part where we need to deny ignorance.. this thread is bunk for the simple fact that the federal reserve is not responsible for our gold reserves.. so the thread is pointless.. people who come in late and skip to the end aren't going to understand and it will perpetuate the idea that the fed was supposed to control our gold and now it's gone..
So one last time just to keep it a persistent thing in my journey to again, deny ignorance..
1. The fed is not responsible for the gold reserves
2. The treasury department is responsible for the gold reserves
3. The gold reserves are housed at Fort Knox, under the treasury department.. not the fed..
4. In summary: the fed should not have gold, and don't .. as they clearly said.. no news here
I think it's a bad idea to continue on this thread with the wrong idea.. the topic is about the fed not having gold and it's skewed far off the road from there.. deny ignorance
Should also be noted that the fed isn't part of the government, they are private .. the treasury is part of the government..edit on 7-6-2011 by miniatus because: (no reason given)
like the part where the fed controls all the gold by their certificates of value at $45 dollars a share
WAKE UP AND PAY ATTENTION
