We need points. There was a huge crowd and a great atmosphere for the match. We had a very good first half. We were moving the ball well, making the Revs run, getting in behind them, and creating chChallenges in Gold Mining
…And some governments are either too greedy or economically inept to understand the social and economic benefits of a gold mine. They either establish taxes and royalties that are too high or flat-out nationalize a portion or all of an operation run by a private international company. This drives out foreign investment and eventually leads to failure when state-controlled companies try to profitably operate a gold mine. Just look at some of the goings on in countries such as Venezuela, RomanWeek in Review #36 (2008-09-07)
Technical analysts looking at the major equity market indexes of various countries this weekend must be stunned to see a consistent pattern where prices are on the verge of simultaneous collapse.

It’s Happening We’ve been promising for a couple of years now that this was going to happen. We were pretty clearly somewhere around a “tipping point” for oil prices awhile back. Since then, we’ve gone well BEYOND the tipping point, and all of those suppliers who followed Mao-Mart’s orders to move their production base to China are feeling the pinch of their mistaken decisions.
