"Who keeps giving these crooks the money to continually pound on PMs?"

The bankers give themselves the money. JP Moron etc. can create it if they need to, or they can steal it cause they own the govt and won't be touched by regulators or the justice system.

The share shorters have a similar "get out of jail free" card because they support the bank/govt need to keep PMs under control. Low PM price is one of the key tools thay have to keep the fiat scam going as long as possible.

If you can create as much fiat as you need, then you can tollerate losses. The real crime is that they profit by manipulating the markets so they have incentive to keep on working their filthy activities.

I think the above is beyond theory and has been proven beyond reasonable doubt.
