<p>[QUOTE="10gary22, post: 1325899, member: 23626"]If it were discovered that there wasn't any gold in Fort Knox, nobody would care. There would be no bank runs or holidays. The FDIC changed all that long ago. Face it, I doubt you can redeem your gold certificates for anything but Federal Reserve Notes, anyway. The most would happen, is the Media would have a few good days speculating about what happened to it. There would be an outcry for the Fed to conduct an investigation, etc. But in reality, just another crummy day to listen to the talking heads. There's more gold in th ground north of Nellis AFB in Nevada than ever was in Fort Knox. One mine was reported taking 1,000,000 a week when gold was around 1500. That's just ONE mine and there are a lot of mines !</p><p><br /></p><p>Really, after Brad Metzer did the piece on Fort Knox on the Discovery Channel, I think most people believe Fort Knox to be empty anyway. Come on, it's not a secret location. If there is gold there, we would have seen it before now. It would have been shown to help re-establish faith in the economy at some point during the last few years. Nope, can't show it, because they likely don't have it.
