hahaha not sure my nickel is worth much either (even with all those badges)...

Very good point on the Fed and the people behind it, couldn't agree more. People think the Fed is there is "help" us people to survive and prosper, when in fact the opposite is true. It is a tool to control us and keep them in power. And I agree they will be the ones who pick the next system too. And also agree very much that it is our job to keep our eyes open and gain when we see what path they take. We are in sync.
