They're end to end, not side to side. Column applies. If they were side by side, they would be in a row. Column is perpendicular to row.

In relation to graphs and charts, a column is always vertical, and a row is always horizontal. Rows and columns are always perpendicular to each other.

-Gold saw a government seizure of all privately held gold in ’33 and a currency devaluation vs. gold.
-The US forced much of the WWII allies to pay in gold for their munitions, food, etc.
-The US drove the Bretton Woods agreement in ’44 which pegged all currencies to the dollar and the dollar was pegged to gold.
-Then in ’71, after the US saw its gold holdings fall by 61% in less than a decade, Nixon unilaterally broke the Bretton Woods agreement and closed the gold window and dollar convertability into gold…
-Nixon immediately replaced the gold backed Bretton Woods agreement with the Petro Dollar agreement pledging the US would offer support and security to Saudi leaders and then all OPEC leaders so long as they only accepted payment for their oil in US dollar denominations.

Then Bernanke's July 2011 comments that "gold is not money" and gold is only held by central banks as a "tradition"?!?

43 years and the US hasn’t made a peep regarding gold? Not sold or purchased a single bar?!? 8133.5 tons…just a flat line. What’s so very strange with this explanation is that following Nixon’s ’71 action, the FFR (Federal Funds Rate) and interest rates on US debt rose for a decade quadrupling US interest payments on US Federal debt (at this time, the vast majority of US Treasury debt was owned by Domestic public and private sources so nearly all interest payments stayed within the US economy). But in ’81 Federal Funds Rates and 10yr interest rates peaked and then began their now 4+ decade long 99.5% and 87.5%, respective, falls.




Once upon a time trade and budget deficits were resolved in gold and silver. Create too much money to buy others goods and your currency became worthless…America found this out over a period of 26 years from the implementation of the Bretton Woods accord in ’45 to the closure of the gold standard in ’71. But that period’s budget and trade deficits were absolutely pedestrian compared to the ‘00’s…



The run on US gold by nations repatriating the excess dollars America was creating during the Vietnam War was the old gold systems last gasp. The Bretton Woods accord made it clear if America printed too many dollars, those could be redeemed for gold. Had America not closed the gold window, America would have been forced to either adjust spending in line with revenues or face a heavy loss in the dollar’s value and an inability to continue importing “cheap” goods from abroad.






The Petro dollar allowed America to rig the system allowing America and her citizens to borrow and spend to their hearts content and not be concerned about rising taxation or higher interest rates. But what was the lynchpin holding this system together? Gold…and I’m guessing America’s gold is gone and if this is true, the questions arise, what is “money” and what is the dollars true value?



After all I think it was Bernanke who had stated that there is no gold backing the US dollar - at all. Yet "The United States" ....still shows that it has gold reserves?

Methinks China's gold #s are every bit as reliable if not moreso :haha:

California’s Mojave Desert.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

A 377 megawatt net solar complex using mirrors to focus the power of the sun on solar receivers atop power towers.

The electricity generated by all three plants is enough to serve more than 140,000 homes in California during the peak hours of the day.

The complex will reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by more than 400,000 tons per year.

Located in Ivanpah, approximately 50 miles northwest of Needles, California (about five miles from the California-Nevada border) on federal land managed by the Bureau of Land Management.

The facility is comprised of three separate plants built in phases between 2010 and 2013, and uses BrightSource Energy’s LPT solar thermal technology.

i guess I am confused. but that's not new. :lol:

Stole it from the people? Give it back to the states? Who exactly did it get stolen from? If you tell me the Indian tribes, I'll slap you.

Okay, so it goes back to the states... it's still government property. no power to the people there... :shrug:

The article Porky posted said the states suffer from lower federal funding with federal land... so that would imply that the federal government does provide a revenue stream for public lands.

The other confusing thing is the definition of federal land. Does that include national parks, wildlife refuges, national forests, etc? Are you guys saying there should be no such things?
