Silver and risks of the paper market

Gold and silver are strange things. They have been used for centuries as money and only in the last 40 years have they been shoved aside by the financial communists - yet they still exist as a free market monetary asset despite the force of all the government's guns. The strange thing about gold & silver, however, is that while they are the last vestige of a money that is not in and of itself able to be manipulated by the political criminal class, many people still trade instruments in gold and silver which are easily manipulated by the aforementioned. We can't speak for the marketplace, but we here at The Dollar Vigilante, buy gold and silver as a way to protect ourselves from the easily foreseeable collapse of the current non-free market monetary system. To us, to try to protect ourselves from the collapse of the monetary system by buying instruments (futures) which are a part & parcel with the current monetary system makes as much sense as buying shares of Enron in late 2001 because you had inside knowledge it was a fraud.
