Follow Me on Twitter

I was asked if there was an easy way to know when I post something. The answer is yes. I have a twitter account that when something gets posted a tweet is sent. You can find me directly on the twitter website or can go to my section on gold shark and click on follow me.

Hope that helps.

From someone who is more tech savvy than I am:

For everyone else's quick access, the Twitter page is: http://twitter.com/kasparscomments

OR as they say on Twitter:

Blog Posts - Where You Can Find Me

Hey all. There are some major changes occurring as far as blog posts go. I have started writing for various websites. Instead of random blog posts (which I still may do occasionally), I will be publishing more regular content that will be picked up by these websites:

Goldshark

Ark Fund Capital Management

Dollar Collapse

321 Gold

Business Insider

Seeking Alpha

Goldshark, Business Insider, and Ark Fund Capital will have everything I publish. The other websites will publish off and on. There are also five other websites pending that may pick up some of my content.

Also - the goal is to become much more regular with writeups once a day Monday through Friday.

I may still post something from here from time to time but it will be inconsistent. Hope to see you on one of the other websites.

Utah Law - Pay your tax in gold or silver??

This is incredible. The Utah house is going to vote next week on allowing US federal government issued gold and silver coins. This is monumental!!!

From foxnews.

The Utah House was to vote as early as Thursday on legislation that would recognize gold and silver coins issued by the federal government as legal currency in the state. The coins would not replace the current paper currency but would be used and accepted voluntarily as an alternative.

The legislation, which has 12 co-sponsors, would let Utahans pay their taxes with gold and also calls for a committee to study alternative currencies for the state. It would also exempt the sale of gold from the state capital gains tax.


So if you had an American silver eagle or American gold eagle it would be considered legal tender in Utah. This would open up all sorts of opportunities for businesses to transact in gold also. This is truly amazing and I am speechless.

In this same article it mentions one of the stupdiest comments Bernanke has ever utterred (and he has said some stupid stupid things over the years).

Bernanke also said that gold couldn't return as the world standard because there's not enough gold in the world to effectively support the U.S. money supply.


Think about that for a moment. Idiotic. It isn't based on amount. It is a function of price. So you adjust the price of gold to make the value of gold to equal the money supply.

Utah apparently isn't the only state to be considering such a move.

Twelve other states have offered similar proposals: Georgia, Montana, Missouri, Colorado, Indiana, Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Tennessee, Washington, Vermont and Oklahoma.


Gold and silver are quickly moving back to currency status.
