No Gold In Ft. Knox?

Quote from DrPepper:

I keep wondering that as well. However, we are all just dismissed as conspiracy theorists.

".....giving rise to suspicions that the trucks were being used to remove the gold from the vaults before the South Tower fell."


Why is there this huge discrepancy between the value of gold and silver reported recovered, and the value reported to have been stored in the vaults? There are a number of possible explanations, from outright theft using the attack as cover, to insurance fraud. Until there is a genuine investigation that probes all the relevant facts and circumstances surrounding the attack, we can only speculate.

Quote from pspr:

This may be old news but, Ron Paul thinks there may be no gold in Fort Knox or at the Fed. He's introducing legislation to force an audit of Gov. gold holdings. Don't they have tours at Ft. Knox where they show you the gold?

Seeing gold bars in Fort Knox (assuming they aren't gold plated tungsten http://agmetalminer.com/2009/12/03/fake-gold-bars-discovered-in-hk-lbma-approved-vaults/) is not the same thing as knowing who owns them. That's something a proper audit should find out. When a large quantity of gold is sold it is usually not moved out of its vault, instead they just change the label of who owns it. We know the government leases out gold, and the traders who lease the gold sell it (as part of a carry trade). The traders are supposed to return the gold eventually but do they? That's one of the things an audit should find out.

There is also the issue of the quality of the gold. Before Nixon closed the gold window foreign countries could redeem U.S. dollars for gold at a fixed rate. This led to a large outflow of good delivery bars. We may find that what's left over is the dregs, maybe 22 karat rather than 0.995+ fine.

That's good to know. I didn't know those details before. Thanks.

Question: I want to see the United States' gold reserves. What can you tell me about visiting the United States Bullion Depository at Fort Knox?

Answer: Unfortunately, for security reasons, no tours are permitted at the Fort Knox Bullion Depository.

http://www.ustreas.gov/education/faq/treasury/tours.shtml#q6

Security reasons??? Yet you can tour and see millions of dollars being printed at the bureau of engraving & printing. Why arent the security reasons enough to stop the tours of where the money is printed? Something seems fishy.

Because dollars are worthless pieces of paper and gold is a true store of wealth?

But what about all the people that tell me I can't eat my gold? lol :p

I guess they're busy eating pieces of paper with green ink on them.
