What point? Spell it out. You somehow think you have a claim to the gold in the ground and should profit from it without investing or doing any work to extract it

okay since you seem so intent on using strawmen, I'll leave you to it

Like you and the central bank? Taken out of context and completely irrelevant to the topic at hand?

Just a wild guess because you don't want to clarify your stance yourself.

Please help me understand this.

if inflation results in the conficastion of wealth, as stated by the father of Keynesian economics, and if inflation is primarily a monetary phenomenon (as per Milton Friedman) then to me this sounds like a simple scam underpinned by guns (as per Krugman)

Ja the Keynes are wrong about many things. Including what inflation is if you are even representing it correctly.
My assets grow faster than inflation and if you bought gold it would be that same as inflation so I don't see how anyone is going to confiscate my assets or even your paper gold because of inflation.

Your example was gold. Please show me were inflation outgrows gold.

I am delighted that the world can see what they enabled with the liberation struggle. Marvelous stuff.

I think the problem is that @saturnz with his one rental property and his tax evasion (and his name dropping and use of cutesy popular words and phrases in an attempt to fool us into thinking there is some substance beneath his puffery) genuinely believes he's gaming the system here.

my example was gold?, you brought up oil as if to suggest SA had nothing to mine

sorry you are all over the place, your question makes absolutely no sense

Okay, let's bring it back to the topic, crime.
Because you don't clarify what you mean clearly I'm reading it as.

Poverty is to blame for crime and central banking/usury/the monetary system is to blame for the poverty?

 

[Slootvreter]

give people pieces of paper in return for the dug up stuff, sounds like a good deal

 

[saturnz]

Poverty is to blame for crime and central banking/usury/the monetary system is to blame for the poverty?

Poverty is to blame for crime? No

Central banks blamed for poverty? No

perhaps read the Keynes statement again, confiscation is essentially theft

What is being confiscated?

Give the source for that Keynes statement, I want to check what conspiracy site you got it from.

You want a straight answer? Shame on you.

I'm starting to wonder if certain people even understand what is meant by strawmen..... or if they are just trolls.

more strawmen, okay then, wikipedia is now a conspiracy site

From what I gather, saturnz is talking about another type of crime than the rest of us (we are talking house break- ins, robberies, muggings, theft out of vehicles), that is where your confusion comes from, just leave him be.
