I usually get myself in a lot of trouble responding to this stuff, but here goes nuthin'... I don't agree that deflation is worse than...
Probably not. The housing market involved significant levels of debt obtained by unworthy borrowers. Gold and silver will definitely drop in...
They are real gains and losses. Selling just stops the daily fluctuation.
They are safe because they can't default. A $1000 note is denominated in terms of itself. The money is the debt and the debt is the money. It...
