Yes, you care very much what I think of your "sources." Otherwise you wouldn't get so angry/frustrated when I disagree with your so-called sources.
I get the meaning of the thread. I listened to about 5 minutes of the radio program you posted (turned it off once I thought it was worthless), and I have read your suggested articles from Financial Sense, including some of Mr. Puplava's articles. I am well aware of Mr. Puplava; and have read some of his articles and seen him speak in the past.
Do you dispute that he owns significant stakes in a gold and silver company? Would you disagree with the notion that price of gold and silver typically rises during economic uncertainty? Would you disagree that his articles and radio programs usually preach economic doom-and-gloom? Do you not agree that he often suggests investing in precious metals? It all adds up to me.
If the President of AMTRAK started writing countless articles about how there will be 200% more airline accidents and 500% more airline related deaths in 2009, and then suggested that passengers make alternative travel arrangements, how much weight would you put on his opinion? I cannot answer that for you, but using history as a guide, I would venture a guess that you would place more weight on his opinion than I.
Gyno- I don't get frustrated with you, But you know, you just can't fix stupid- And... you so much want to put words in my mouth- NOT-
1.) Mr. Puplava happens to sit on the Board of Directors of Kimber Resources (This is public knowledge in the public domain) Try the SEC, or Yahoo! duhhhhh
2.) Mr. Puplava does invest, and has invested in Gold/Silver, and "yes" also during economic uncertainty- AS I ALREADY STATED- (PREVIOUS POST, did you forget??).
3.) Mr. Puplava doesn't necessarily preach doom/gloom. You should do your homework, on how we (U.S.) have gotten to this point in time economically. Being knowledgable, and realistic, with all facts considered usually point you in the "right" direction. BUT..., more often then not. You could show people the "FACTS", but they refuse to believe what they are seeing is true! They always want to believe, things aren't as bad as it really is.
4.) Mr. Puplava does advocate investing in precious metals, when properly valued. He also advocates investing in Water, Agriculture, Infrastructure, Oil & Oil Service companies.- Becasue, he is a believer in Peak Oil, which is manifesting itself in spades) Add, these (4), and "other" current economic conditions, as well as past (Historic) Monetary policy (1913), encompassing "Other" economic/trade conditions- And there you have it. Not to hard to figure out. Unless of course, you can't fix stupid-
Now in regard to your Amtrak/Airline analogy. Take a look at the media- T.V., Papers, Magazines etc... Don't look for them to "always" tell you the truth, becasue often they disagree with each other. Thus, leaving the reader/viewer to make his/her own decision, based on his/her investigative efforts.
Now as far as your Green (hint, hint), don't look for your alternatives to replace anymore that 4% of U.S. (OIL)production. Additionally, GOLD/Silver is the only real money- (U.S. Constitution), and the U.S. Government & Wall Street (manipulate) the Gold/Silver (precious/Metals) Markets, to lend support to the "Fiat" currency. Give me FACTS, gyno- not opinions......
