#1 A friend told me a few years ago that his stocks, 401K, real estate and savings had all been wiped out. Only thing he owned that had gone up in value was his gold and his guns, and from then on his sole investment strategy would be guns.

Wine is also a good investment in a socialist economy. If it goes up you make money. If it goes down you drink it.

#2 Well, of course. If one person with gold but no guns meets another with guns but no gold, what do you think will happen?

More like: "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges."

Interesting question. The next and even more interesting question is:
If one person with guns (with or without gold) meets many more people with many more guns, what do you think will happen?
Take that a few steps further...

#6 Interesting question.

I think Thomas Hobbes already answered that.
