>"Without precise records, the best estimate is that a large portion of gold-holding Americans—likely tens of millions, directly or indirectly through banks—surrendered their gold".I still can't believe this shit happened.
Reality is only those who held their gold in safety deposit boxes had theirs seized. No door-to-door confiscation was done and only cucks turned it in themselves.Similar to gun buybacks. Also why you don't own it if you don't hold it

>>61007213>CRIMINAL PENALTIES FOR VIOLATION OF EXECUTIVE ORDER >$10,000 fine or 10 years imprisonment, or both, as provided in Section 9 of the order.This part definitely scared a lot of people
>>61007208They will do this with Bitcoin eventually.They won't even need to show up to your house to take them.Then bye bye to all of your digital tokens.
>>61007651>show up to your house to take themNo need. That's a feature of digital assets. All on/off ramps are KYC. They'll just block your ability to convert to USD.
>>61007651Are talking about quantum shit?
>>61007208literal marxist communists.the federal reserve system (and the bank of england) own the entire west, and they are all far leftists.FDR/WW were commies. stole gold from Americans after intentionally destroying the economy in order to bring people to their knees, begging for leftist economic and social policy.You know who else did this? Mao in china copied FDR.
>>61007797legit, their only difference of debate with eastern communists is with dictatorship. otherwise they're identical.
>>61007253Jews gonna jew
>>61007253You are better off just handing it over and invest in something else.
>>61007208You know a worse shit than this? The Worst Korean willingness to give up their gold so the nat'l loan that was held by the IMF doesn't default.
>>61007208>>61007213>>61007253Guys. People back then had a MUCH higher opinion of the Federal Government than today. In 1942, after Pearl Harbor brought the USA in to WW2, young men would kill themselves if they were 4F, and unable to join the fight. In 1933, people believed the U.S. Government when it said speculators were targeting the currency, and that turning in your gold would help the 'war effort'. This is the problem with government, a good govenrment is a small one, and it builds a people, a country and it also builds confidence... a big government uses that confidence to destroy a people and country. These people never stood a chance, they volunteered their money and the evidence is the thousands of tonnes of so called 'coin bars' sitting in Kentucky and New York.
I still can't believe how much you retarded yanks constantly larp on about how the 2nd amendment will save you from a tyrannical government but your grandfathers rolled over and allowed the state to steal the only real money they ever owned. unbelievably cucked.
>>61009284>some people turned their gold in during an era of higher trust, therefore you should turn your guns in.Meanwhile it seems like America is the only western country ever putting up a fight.
>>61009320>Meanwhile it seems like America is the only western country ever putting up a fight.Lmao no. Americans are getting fucked on all three holes.
>>61009328It's a long process. Other countries haven't even begun. Society is starting to realize we need to undo the past 20 years of Obama era. But if you are a mentally ill person, you are probably approaching peak hysteria.
>>61009284Maybe Americans will drop their guns and run away when the first shot is fired in a civil war. Only time will tell. But at least they didn't give up the fight before it even began and voluntarily emasculate themselves. That is a level of cowardice hard to understand in an adult man. Eurofags should probably keep quite on the topic.
>>61007208>"Hand over all your metal"Give them them the lead furst
>>61009382>peak hysteriaSome people are still completely mind broken from the last decade of absolutely absurd propaganda. I've been trying to get back on the horse after getting absolutely rekt by a divorce, but I'm really not sure there's anybody out there that's still sane. Maybe my best bet is unironically finding a regular prostitute
>>61007208Only like 10% of retards fell for this. Everyone else just hid their gold.
Also you were allowed to keep 5 ounces of go.d per person per household. If you had a bunch of gold and didn’t want to give it up then you could just give it to your wife and kids.
FDR was basically our first dictator. Could have gotten ugly if he didn't die young. But at the very least he was Jew-skeptical and pro American so maybe we wouldn't have ever had the globohomo 60's and LBJ and stayed more of a socialist ethnostate.
>>61009850>>61009382It's not a good thing that the government has been systemically disassembling foreign aid and medical research, no.Especially because one of those foreign aid projects is the one that is keeping man eating flies from laying eggs in your eyeballs anywhere north of panama.Or how last time we cut medical funding, one of the labs hit was a chinese covid lab, which had covid 19 released from it less than 3 months later.Everyone likes to go on about wasteful spending and big government, but then they forget that if they don't spend this money their eyes get eaten by flies and steaks become 50 times more expensive.
the key missing part here is people trusted the government back then, and they had sound money not massive debt. neither of those things are true anymore.people aren't even willing to stop using tik tok when the government tells them to, and you think they'll hand in something worth money?
>>61009382>Other countries haven't even begun.nepal burned their government down over a tiktok bani for one thoroughly enjoy this timeline we are living in
>>61007218>anti-crypto guy is also anti-stonetossmmmm... I'm connecting the dots... strange 6 pointed star...
>>61007651only 2 more weeks until the super ban
>>61007253Were people fined/imprisoned?
>>61011112i asked grok>The government seized approximately 500 metric tons of gold, indicating significant compliance, but enforcement actions were likely in the dozens or hundreds, not thousands, based on available legal records and historical analyses. >Most non-compliance was handled through seizures or fines rather than imprisonment, as the government aimed to secure gold rather than mass-incarcerate citizens. >Fear of penalties drove compliance more than actual prosecutions.>Precise numbers are elusive because the Treasury didn’t publish detailed enforcement statistics, and many cases were settled quietly.
