Auric Goldfinger Explains That Exploding An Atomic Bomb Inside Fort Knox Won't Affect Gold Prices.

Craig Smith, President of SWISS AMERICA, Gold Bullion investment company says "Don't sweat it! If Congress fails to raise the Debt Limit...NOTHING's gonna happen..."

Is there any better PROOF that failing to raise the Debt Ceiling would DESTROY the United States dollar/currency and T-bill than the president of a GOLD BULLION INVESTMENT company saying that it WOULDN'T?

Some years ago, I said Cheney was a bond-level villain. He still is.

But the Kochs and their affiliates DEFINITELY rate higher as a danger to the entire world. I hope the next Bond movie addresses them.

I would NEVER pass up an opportunity to make a Bond villain reference. And yes, Cheney and the Kochs are definitely Bond calibre bad guys.

Now it only remains to be seen if Obama will be able to slide across the floor and touch the electrical cable to the bars as Oddjob is grabbing his hat. (Metaphorical translation: conduct negative public opinion into the Republican Party through their favorite weapon, the Government Shutdown.)

Obviously, FOX is taking more advantage of the court ruling (in their favor) that says that "news" programs are not required to be honest.

If I do not pay my bills, my credit rating is shit, I can't borrow money, I get foreclosed on.....
America is immune to this?

Other nations are not.
