This is a huge and very real crisis that threatens the solvency of the Fraction reserve Gold system today, which is now sitting at a crossorads of lack of confidence due to lack of hard bullion reserves. The only way this can end is in a massive default in a large majority of paper Options, Futures, and especially ETFs, followed by a sudden sharp rise in the price of the real deal - especially in the sister fractional-reserve Silver markets. Our time is coming and not a moment too soon. We could see some real fireworks this year when Gold's 2-year cycle kicks into gear later this year.

IMHO, This is not going to happen any time soon. The Cartel are not ready to give up their power, their influence, their greed, their profit machine that easily. They will do anything, anything, to hold on to what they have, and to achieve their goals (which I do not know what they are, except maybe controlling the world financial system)
