RIMFIRE RAFFLE & MORON INVESTMENTS
Never fear, my series “Bio & Biblio” will continue
shortly. I’m thinking I’d like to save
that writing for this weekend when I don’t have such extreme time pressures
just in case I decide to make it seven hundred words each part just like I did
with #1, rather than a short four or five hundred word ( as I’ve said before,
word count is important to me as a self-discipline mechanism to deliver a consistent
product ) article. Today, we cover two
short topics I’d be hard pressed to make into complete articles. The continuing shortage of rimfire ammunition
and the latest moronic scumbag asshat monkey member molesting investment
newsletter offering. First,
rimfire. All the time in town here there
is a raffle for a gun going on, usually covering a good cause like a medical
expense for a family or a home fire destroying everything, etc. They’ve had nice pistols, precision hunting
rifles, assault carbines. A short time
ago they had a raffle for a bucket of rimfire.
$5 a ticket. The gun raffles are
usually $10 or $20, so this puts the desirability, cost and demand into
perspective. I’ve said it a hundred
times. If copper and hence brass is in
extreme short supply, NOT primers or powder, rimfire ammo would disappear. Thirty cal would be $1 a round, but shotguns
with HIGHER transportation costs BUT
with no copper would be a mere two bits.
Cheap ammo will never come back with the Peak US Copper in 1998 and the
Global Peak Copper 2008.

If you are silly enough to go to:
you will listen to some idiot drone on and on and on
about a very interesting subject, the petro-dollar collapse and our inevitable
economic collapse. At the end, he wants
you to buy his $150 a year newsletter which is fair enough. No free lunch. But he contends that the trigger for all this
will be some arcane bill set to become law that will tax expiates, or tax
corporations headquartered overseas that do business here. Something to that effect. The reason I don’t agree with this is that
outside forces and countries will decide the dollars fate, not a change in
government tax laws. It is just another
claim that gold will soar. Of course it
will, and western civilization will collapse.
Duh. But no one can time it. And gold isn’t for a collapse, it is merely a
wealth transfer device for when the recovery happens. Which could take quite awhile. Beware any claim on timing.

Deleteendofamerica is another doom/gloom money making site,like patriotsforXXX. A lame fear based site,just to steal your $$
ReplyDeleteTheir info is sound but their claim of timing and their cause of collapse is stupid. You can listin just for the background info.
DeleteJim, I couldnt pin down the price of brass online anywhere, but it seems to be
ReplyDeleteabout 3-4 $ a pound. How many pounds of it are in a brick of 22's? Probably less than 1. There must be other reasons for the 22 shortage. Maybe 22 was allways a low profit item & the mfg's are turning to more profitable centerfire products?
A friend who works at Wmart claims they only get about 3 bricks at a time and are sold as soon as they hit the shelf.
Remember, it isn't just about the official price. Those are manipulated down. Like gold. Or silver. I don't know why, but obviously it benefits the bankster bitches. You can demand gold at $1300 an ounce all day long, but good luck getting it delivered. I think copper might have a similar dynamic going on. I think if rimefire demand was all it took to get the factories churning we would have already seen supplies coming back at a double or triple price.
