Since you have specifically asked some questions, I assume you will entertain answers. Here they are:
or am I missing something?
Yes, you are.
What on earth has that got to do with metals or ECU?
I explained that in detail. It has everything to do with them. Try to get hold of your emotions and go back and read my previous post.
I am in metals because I know I will get rich. Period. My wanting to get rich /wanting to protect my wealth . . .
You will neither "get rich" nor protect your assumed wealth if you have not the freedom to direct your life and business as you see fit. If you cannot understand this or think it is OT you are headed for some serious reality checks as the current maelstrom unfolds and escalates.
It is precisely this sort of attitude and reckless disregard for what allows us to accumulate wealth in the first place that places all the rest of us in jeopardy.
