I never understood all the love for the US when I was younger, now as an adult with enough experience and cynicism it's clear it's all just very successful propaganda and the power of cultural hegemony.

Europe was sitting very comfortably in the matrix of the US soft power, and good profitable business has been done for and with the wealthy class. But because life of average Joe was still pretty good, this ass licking arrangement looked like a great deal.

Now the rules changed, and if we don't get our shit together real quick, we are also pretty fucked.

All great, until he decides those bits of paper are worthless. Would that be an insane move that would destabilise the whole world economy? Yes. Does that mean he wont do it? I see no reason to assume that.

Exactly, but given the current situation I am sure a lot of potential buyers would prefer the gold to be in a vault in Germany.

Something every gold bug knows "if you can't hold it you don't own it"

I hope they had insurance.

Are they serious ? The problem of non-existent US gold reserves is 70 years old. France cashed out in the sixties and the gold standard was abolished in 1971 because the US were defaulting on their own bills

Most of the European Countries "safeguard" their Gold reserves in the USA, specifically in New York.

After the latest shenanigans all of the European gold should be returned , preferably under the authority of the ECB.

Can Germany all for its gold back? Assuming Hans Grüber's brother didn't get it first.

Germany and much of the so-called "free world" have been licking the United States' ass for almost a century. And now that the fragility of their democracy became obvious to see, it's time to wake up to reality.

It is easier to buy and sell tons of gold if it is in one place. Then ut can be moved by moving paper.

The gold vaults are inventoried regularly.

Trump is a fool.

Would moving to the UK be an option? I remember they were a frequently used option by governments.
