Jim Sinclair: The gold market is war, and the first casualty is truth
1:31a ET Saturday, May 8, 2004
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Once again Jim Puplava of FinancialSense.com puts
the big picture together better than anyone else,
this time with a long but brilliant, fact-packed,
and wonderfully illustrated essay titled
"Illusions" in his "Storm Watch" series.
Puplava shows what is really happening to the
United States: the pileup of arrogant excess
that is about to come crashing down. Show this
essay to family members and friends you'd
especially like to shelter from the storm, and
use it to nurse your own wounds of the last few
weeks.

The only thing missing from Puplava's work is a
little Kipling, which it heartily evokes:
... Then the Gods of the Market tumbled,
...... and their smooth-tongued wizards withdrew,
... And the hearts of the meanest were humbled
...... and began to believe it was true
... That All is not Gold that Glitters,
...... and Two and Two make Four --
... And the Gods of the Copybook Headings
...... limped up to explain it once more.
... As it will be in the future,
...... it was at the birth of Man --
... There are only four things certain
...... since Social Progress began:
... That the Dog returns to his Vomit
...... and the Sow returns to her mire,
... And the burnt fool's bandaged finger
...... goes wabbling back to the Fire;
... And that after this is accomplished,
...... and the brave new world begins
... When all men are paid for existing
...... and no man must pay for his sins,
... As surely as Water will wet us,
...... as surely as Fire will burn,
... The Gods of the Copybook Headings
...... with terror and slaughter return!
