Could the government confiscate your gold and silver?

Could the Government confiscate your gold?  However unlikely it may be, yes!  With the increasing economic downturn and the ever increasing lack of trust in the Government combined with the fact that Government maintains that it could confiscate gold if the conditions warrant it, what!  

   At the time of the Great Depression, in 1933, hyperinflation caused FDR to issue an Executive order to forbid the hoarding of all gold coin, bullion and certificates.  By doing this, it forces citizens to do business with their devalued money and kept them from setting up any sort of other payment system that the Government couldn't control.

Easy EMP Protection

First off, to those who don't know, EMP stands for Electro Magnetic Pulse. These can be Man Made and , as I understand, they can occur in nature, most commonly from solar flares. A simple protection for some important small electronics can be done as follows.
1) start with a metal container, a military ammo box works good.
2) line the interior of the box with some sort of insulating material, cardboard
will work or a rubber mat from Michael's or somewhere.
3) Make sure nothing (electronics)inside can touch the metal housing.
4) I like to put a strip of aluminum tape where the lid meets the box to make
continuous contact.

Put your stuff inside and it should be protected in case of any sort of EMP.

Get Your Hands on all the Silver you can!

Silver is now at around $23 an oz.  China has never allowed it citizens to own metals and has now changed this policy.  China will be buying up silver in large quantities , that's for sure.  Read this report, it's short, then get any silver you can find, coins, old nickles, dimes, quarters platters even candle sticks.  If nothing else it will be a good investment and most can be found very cheap at garage sales ect.   http://www.scribd.com/doc/38829206
