Many Americans are rooting for Donald Trump and his appointees to succeed in their herculean task of slowing or reversing government growth.
Along with the ad hoc working group dubbed the "Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)," there is much discussion about how runaway big government might be stopped. But there hasn't yet been talk about how to keep it that way.

Mali's government has begun enforcing a provisional order to seize gold stock at Barrick Gold's Loulo-Gounkoto site, the Canadian miner said in a note to Malian staff, warning again that it may have to suspend operations at the complex.

Maguire adds that the United States soon will need a higher price for gold and thus a higher valuation of its gold reserves to back the dollar.

Now don't go all weak at the knees and soft in the head when you read this: Gold! In the Mojave Desert!
