<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cplradar, post: 5380816, member: 108985&quot;]I&#039;m not making any kind of argument like that.&nbsp; And I am expressing not opinion on issues relating to privacy and government surveillance.&nbsp;&nbsp; When the Gardner Museum was robbed, it became apparent that the paintings had been used as cash between mod gangs for 30 years now.&nbsp; It is a cash economy that evades taxes, but it is not good for the public or the art market.&nbsp; What is worst would be if it was like the coin market where the coins would show up again on the regular market, and dealers just took them in despite obvious signs and knowledge that they are stolen.&nbsp; That happens in the coin business, commonly.&nbsp; It doesn&#039;t happen in the art business.&nbsp; One can&#039;t just steal a Van Gogh or even a Picasso print and run down to SoHo and hock it without explanation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
