Gold is reliable. Gold is safe. These are probably obvious statements to the types of people who read our content, but the general population is a bit slower on the draw. You need only watch this video of Mark Dice asking Californians to choose between a few bucks and a 1 oz gold coin to see this in action.
It’s almost painful to watch a man’s face drop when, after choosing a $20 bill, Dice informs him that the gold coin is worth around $1,800. What’s worse is that it didn’t matter if he lowered the cash offer to $10 or even $5, people still chose the cash over the gold. One woman even happily remarked that she could buy a single beer with that cash.
But that’s California for you. The same state where a Board of Supervisors just voted against reopening what was once the largest gold-producing mine in the state and the second-largest in the country. Their reasoning being exactly what you’d expect from Californians.
Cross the mountains into the state of Nevada, however, and things are a bit different. Although it’s known as “The Silver State”, it’s not picky about which precious metal it uses to boost its economy and enrich its citizens. Working with state, local, and tribal governments, the Bureau of Land Management recently approved the construction of a new gold mine that’s expected to contribute to the economy for nearly a quarter century after it begins operation.
But while Nevadans may support the mining of gold, they’re still behind the likes of Florida when it comes to utilizing it. The state legislature’s recently-filed House Bill 697 and Senate Bill 750 have the potential to be a massive step in breaking the Federal Reserve’s monopoly on money by recognizing gold and silver as legal tender, potentially even for digital transactions. Florida is only the most recent state to be embracing gold and silver, however, as Utah led the charge back in 2011 and has since been joined either wholly or partially by several other states.
Many of those states also loosened or removed taxes on gold and silver, something I’m sure many Costco customers living in them were grateful for when they started buying the 1 oz gold bars the retail giant recently started selling. Despite the limit of two bars per member, Costco could barely keep them in stock due to the massive demand, selling more than $100 million worth in just their first fiscal quarter. The only complaints the customers seemed to have, aside from the two-per-member restriction, were state sales taxes on the purchases.
Although these are just baby steps, it’s encouraging to see corporations, governments, and the people as a whole are finally starting to understand what you and I have probably understood for years.

Discover the Freedom of True American Healthcare: Why America First is Revolutionizing Protection for Patriots
In a world where government overreach and skyrocketing premiums are squeezing the life out of hardworking Americans, one innovative agency is standing tall for liberty and affordability. Meet America First Healthcare—the private health insurance powerhouse dedicated to putting *you* first.
Founded by entrepreneur Jordan Sarmiento, this isn’t just insurance; it’s a shield for your family’s future, built on the unshakeable belief that private enterprise delivers better results than bureaucratic red tape.
Picture this: Jordan’s own story hits close to home for so many of us. A sudden medical emergency landed him with a staggering $95,000 bill. Under a traditional plan? He’d be buried in debt. But with America First’s patented health insurance, that nightmare shrank to just $500 out-of-pocket. That’s not a fluke—it’s the promise of coverage that works *for you*, from day one.
Breaking Free from the Chains of Conventional Coverage
Let’s face it: The status quo stinks. Marketplace.gov and big-insurance behemoths hit you with sky-high deductibles—thousands you’d have to pay before benefits even kick in—leaving massive holes in your protection. Need a routine mammogram, colonoscopy, or EKG? Good luck without forking over more cash. And don’t get us started on the gaps in dental, vision, or critical illness support when heart attacks, cancer, or kidney failure strike.
America First Healthcare flips the script. As a proud advocate for private solutions over government intervention, they craft custom plans that slash costs by 20% compared to traditional options. We’re talking comprehensive coverage that includes:
- Preventative and Wellness Care: Physical exams, screenings, and EKGs covered right away—no waiting games.
- Telemedicine Access: Virtual doctor visits anytime, anywhere, for that peace of mind.
- Accident and Critical Illness Protection: Real safeguards against life’s curveballs.
- Add-On Boosts: Dental, vision, disability, and supplemental plans to plug every leak.
Whether you’re an individual stepping off your parents’ plan, a growing family with kids in tow, or a small business owner tired of employee headaches, their tailored approach fits like a glove. Small businesses? Unlock group benefit rates usually reserved for corporate giants—without the red tape.
And for those in-between moments? Short-term insurance steps in as an ultra-affordable bridge, while life insurance ensures your loved ones are never left vulnerable.
Real Americans, Real Wins
Don’t just take our word for it. Thousands of freedom-loving families have already ditched the old system for America First. “Finally, insurance that aligns with our values and actually saves us money,” shares one client. Another raves, “Our small team got big-business perks without the hassle—it’s a game-changer.” These aren’t scripted lines; they’re the voices of patriots who’ve reclaimed control over their health destiny.
