I guess it's widely (and sadly) accepted that the PM market is manipulated...and has been for decades. Sad, isn't it that the free market can't be the force that determines the price?
I keep looking for areas of my life that aren't manipulated by the government. There just aren't many. Energy prices? Yes. Commodities? Yes. Food prices? Yes. The weather? Yes. Health care? Yes. I could keep the list going, but it makes me increasingly weary.
Just about the only things I can easily identify are the following:
My love for my family
My love for my country
My desire to succeed in life
Being steadfast in my convictions that freedom is paramount to my existence
My belief in God
My Constitutional right to bear arms
Anyone or any governmental body that interferes with any/all of these is subject to a bucket of problems.
Hang tough, all.
