The California Mother Lode

James Marshall discovered Gold in California at Sutter’s Mill in 1848 and set off the largest gold rush in history. Reminders of this abundantly rich history can be found everywhere along Hwy 49 as it winds and meanders through the Mother Lode mining towns of days gone by, through flowering white dogwoods, olive colored oaks and towering cedar, the remnants of history; old stone cabins and buildings, mining equipment, and stamp mills that were used to crush gold-bearing quartz.

Devaluation of the U.S. Dollar

Without continuing to monetize the debt (QEIII etc), at this point I think we would head into a deflationary depression. Either way, our debt needs to be paid through austerity (deflationary), or defaulted through inflation.
Neither scenario is good, but the FED has made it clear they are trying an orderly devaluation of the dollar.
I just don’t understand why people are surprised at the actions in the precious metals given the state of the world’s reserve currency.
