Reminder of the case for silver:
1) Silver is the most shorted asset in history, 50,000% short (500 paper ounces for every real one in existence). The big 8 shorts are all big banks. They short PMs (especially silver) to protect the fiat dollar, because PMs are the true measuring-stick of inflation.
2) Silver is 1/40th of the normal historical price which it should be (the average daily wage is only 1/10th of an ounce of silver; plus, silver is now so rare, because of the predatory shorting, that owning only 60 ounces puts you in the top 1% of owners)
3) If you take delivery on the COMEX, the exchange where silver is shorted, you expose the true price of silver (which = $1000 + an ounce; the Hunt Brothers pushed it to an inflation-adjusted ATH of $966 according to ShadowStats, before they got shut down)
4) If you expose the true price of silver, you expose the dollar as a hyperinflated fraud
5) If you expose the dollar as a hyperinflated fraud, the world dumps it and reverts to precious metals and you destroy the Fed
(Point #5 is already rapidly occurring. Russia now owns more gold than dollars, and China is rumoured to have 20,000 tons of it. Only reason why they don't bankrupt the COMEX themselves is to keep collecting worthless USD from their debtors and buying up commodities at suppressed prices.)
