I'm off to join the other 99%, I'm not a anarchist or hard right so this is not the place for me.

There's plenty of "limited hangouts" for the "99%", you will be right at home, or should I say Left. ?

This is exactly the type of division that illegitimate "authority" desire. For us to be divided based on our perceived differences, but if we are left or right, it doesn't matter, because they are still not on your side. They hate you both equally. It's a red herring that keep your mind off from their own activities. (I know you already said this, OldCoin.)

Big Marc, I'm a classical liberal. You have entirely legitimate perspective. It doesn't make it true, but it might be.

Sixgun, I'm an anarchist, which cannot include any individual wanting to take over control for themselves and be a warlord (Communists), because that would mean they are still Statists. I personally can't agree that the more to the right you go, the less authoritarian you are. Christianity is predominately right-wing. While it doesn't happen very often, some of them still burn books. Burning and banning books happened a lot in the past. That's authoritarian. But it doesn't matter to me if we disagree on something. You provide a lot of valuable information.

OldCoin, I grew up in a Baptist Church, debated Jehovah's witnesses, visited Lutheran, Methodist and Presbyterian Churches. There isn't a whole lot of doctrinal difference between them and the Baptists and Jehovah's Witness seem to think everyone else is going to hell. None of them realize that they've gotten most of their interpretations from Freemason gatekeepers and their all protestants out of the Catholic Church and they're all wrong 99% of the time. Even Catholics, who killed off all the dissenters after the 2nd century. Literally no one of them follow Jesus' teachings. An example: Jesus stated that when the end of the age took place, there would be some that were listening to his words that would witness it. Does anyone really believe that people have survived from two thousand years. It happened in AD70 and Nero was the Anti-Christ and I've yet to meet a Christian who isn't 99% wrong on their interpretation. But that doesn't matter to me at all. We are all iron and we have an opportunity to sharpen each other. We are supposed to love our neighbors as ourselves.

BigMarc, I disagree with you more than many people on here, but that doesn't matter to me. I've still enjoyed reading your comments and I'm going to miss reading them.

The left wing needs a right wing. The right wing needs a left wing. Otherwise the damn bird won't fly. It's when we forget and start attacking each other that makes me conclude that the bird has gone suicidal.

I might not be able to claim I really know any of you, but I love all of you and this forum would not be what it is without you.

Ps. I know I'm a little late to the party.

Was Silver Squeeze 2.0 a non-event?

I think the manipulators purchased 87 million ounces in paper contracts a few days ago in an attempt to keep the price at USD26, so a 5% increase would be positive impact for a single day. It currently stands above USD27 with 3 hours till the markets close.

May I ask [to] you gentlemen if somebody know[s]/ha[ve]s some insight[s] on how much silver is really/practically available over ground and underground? (Compared to other PM as well) I keep listening [to] many contradicting (claims) [information] about that: some make it sound[s] like silver is way more rare than gold, some quite the opposite...

(This is not quite what you were asking about, but having reread it, I'm not going to delete it, although the last paragraph comes close to what you're asking. The short answer is, above ground, unpurchased silver might be more rare at the moment. Below the ground, I don't know that anyone has an idea, but the final paragraph provides insight how silver would likely be rarer than gold before the end of the century.)

Here is an example that might give you more perspective and I will follow it up with a link. The value of silver has been manipulated a lot more than gold. It isn't that silver should be worth more than gold. It is that more is to be gained percentage-wise from owning silver. That is, should we be returned to a precious metals standard worldwide. I will point out that presently that would appear to be a very big if.

So these are the figures behind why silver has greater potential, but these are only United States figures: usdebtclock.org/gold-precious-metals.html.

It should be noted too that these are the official numbers. There was a news story about a college professor in my state who discovered a further discrepancy of 21 trillion dollars. Also the day before 9/11, Donald Rumsfeld announced a major discrepancy of trillions and the documents were supposedly stored at the Pentagon where the alleged planes allegedly crashed, making no claim one way or the other concerning the details of the official story. It's thought by some that an ounce of gold could be reevaluated at 100k. Whether that is true or not, no idea, but I do know that currently that is a little more than 7x the silver than gold, so theoretically, if gold is 100k US an ounce, silver--based on the numbers of silver bullion in the US--silver would be 14k an ounce. Again those numbers sound outrageous.

Another thing to consider. About 15% of gold is used industrially. 50% of silver is used industrially. Solar as well as electric cars depend heavily upon silver and copper, two technologies that have yet to achieve wide adoption. Of course a lot of other electronics use these metals as well, and one would be foolish to believe that no other tech in the future would use these metals, so the likelihood that silver could eventually be rarer than gold is not out of the question. Will it happen in our lifetimes? Not sure, but it doesn't have to because, when the people own a majority of the silver, the corporations will have to come to us and pay our prices or they won't be able to meet demand which means that holding silver, even for a poor normie, will make us very rich if we live long enough. Of course you can't eat silver, so make sure to have an extra freezer fully stocked with food or you might not live long enough to see it.

In the US, there is sales tax on silver and gold, depending on which states you are buying from.

Lucky me. My state is exempt then.

We don't have a tax on silver or gold here.

None in America either. Unless you make a profit off sales and you sell more than $10k of your stash at a time. Capital gains.

It is found by deconstructing both sides of any argument with an open mind in search for the absolute truth with fair and consistent reason, and occams razor which is what's the most logical likely explanation after doing that, must be the closest answer. However most people, generally speaking, appease their bias and will not hear the other side. 

Occam's Razor definitely works for simple things and personal situations, but it would seem to me that the bigger the sandbox, the greater the possibilities and the more challenges to explain or discover solutions. Just like Newtonian physics applies to everything that is familiar but does not often apply to the subatomic. The greater the variables, the less useful it is. Even reason has it limits.

Out of interest, how would you all change the world for the better? 

Besides being the change I want to see in the world? I have a few ideas that I am working toward, but for now I am keeping them to myself.

I started waking up to this stuff in 2006. Before then I was fully invested in the lie, so I understand all of the people that want to avoid the truth at all costs. I was one of them. Because it's all so much simpler to believe what you're spoon-fed instead of doing real research which requires exploring all arguments and then picking them apart and reconstructing them one by one. I can't help but come to the conclusion that we've been lied to for a very long time, not just 2001, but 1913. Not just 1913, but perhaps for thousands of years.

The Great Reset. Global corporate tax. Vaccine passports. Universal Basic Income. Green New Deal.

It isn't the Book of Revelation I'm worried about. It's the individuals who appear to be using it for world domination. Certainly we agree that it's too coordinated to be coincidental. Definitely words like "righteous" and "morality" are important, appropriate and accurate and no one should ever be barred from using them. But even their counterparts like "equality," "equity" and "justice" have been corrupted by the opposite by the other wing to have a stigma to them that was not originally intended. They were supposed to mean "equality of opportunity" "kindness, respecting and loving one's neighbor." When all the words you could possibly use have a stigma to them on one "side" or the other, it would seem that no choice could really be wrong, even if all of them have been redefined to leave a bitter aftertaste. A word that came to my mind, an old word, is iniquity, meaning "a false balance." The concept that a person or organization can decide what is best for others and take from the other what is not theirs, primarily a lust for power and control.

You posts are wealth of information and wisdom, OldCoin. Thank you.

Above and beyond the call of above and beyond! You guys know how to make friends. Much gratitude!
