Marc Faber : I don’t trust any Government, period

Marc Faber : I don’t trust any government, period. The debts are too burdensome for the system, and then it leads to all kinds of symptoms. In other words, if you can’t pay your debts, you may print money, or you default, or you increase taxation, or you take things away from the well-to-do people, the evil people that make so much money. Well, the Federal Reserve enables them to make so much money. That is a key difference. They didn’t abuse the system; they just took advantage of a situation of money printing so their wealth increased more than the wealth of the middle class and the lower classes.

In the Western world, they’ll go after these well-to-do people and people that own gold.

The Chinese government has actually encouraged people to accumulate gold, and themselves, they are accumulating gold.
