The worst is not behind us. The worst is yet to come. I have this on the highest authority – from the man who has openly admitted that his organization (the FED) has no solutions to offer except month-old data on the extent of the housing crisis. Yes, Bernanke is boring. Read him anyway. The financial media are not reporting on this.

Greenspan is on the record as follows: "In the absence of the gold standard there is no way to protect savings from the confiscation through inflation. There is no safe store of value without gold. This is the shabby secret of the welfare statists' tirades against gold. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the hidden confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process that stands as a protector of property rights."

Many students need help to compose their term papers. Unfortunately, some will download prewritten papers from free databases; others will try to save a few dollars and order low quality, recycled works from foreign websites.

There's also been a great deal of confusion about Amazon charging for the conversion and delivery of our own content into our own Kindles. Amazon *only* charges for wireless delivery, the conversion is 100% free. If you eMail your content to YourKindleName@kindle.com it's converted and downloaded into your Kindle for 10 cents.

The increase in value of gold and silver is directly tied to the devaluation of the dollar. Owners should not be taxed on inflation. Gold and silver represent a way for the small investor to keep their savings safe from the ravages of inflation. They should not be taxed for being successful at preserving their wealth.

CNN Headline News segment-9/17/2007-Glenn Beck-Greenspan, Oil, and War-Craig R Smith, author of Black Gold Stranglehold, and Glenn Beck discuss ways to gain energy independence for America

Peter Schiff, son of American patriot Irwin Schiff, has written a very useful book that can not only assist you to take the concrete steps necessary for financial survival. I remember the first time I heard Mr. Schiff speak on CNBC. The discussion was about inflation, and I couldn't help but notice Mr. Schiff's definition diverged significantly from the definition used by the brainless cheerleaders on CNBC, and for that matter, our government and most of Wall Street.

Geithner's speech goes on and on and on. Still, it is probably one of the most important speeches ever by a Fed governor in admitting what the problems are. I recommend reading it in entirety. And while the Fed (at least Geithner) admits it has no idea what to do, I offer this 3 part solution. 1) Abolish the Fed, 2) Eliminate fractional reserve lending, 3) Implement a sound monetary policy based on hard assets such as gold as opposed to price fixing by government sponsored clowns.
