The US Federal Reserve, a privately owned and run bank not affiliated with the US Government, currently holds gold deposits for many countries around the world. Yet they will not allow member countries such as Germany to withdraw or physically inspect their own gold.
There is in fact no evidence that the deposited gold exists any more other than the word of the FED.
In a similar vein, the gold stored at Ft. Knox has not been audited since 1953, when only 5% of the gold was examined and tested. Again, there is no evidence that the gold stored at Ft. Knox exists.
We ask President Obama to immediately form a bi-partisan commission of metallurgists, accountants and politicians to examine and audit all the gold stored in US FED Vaults and at Ft. Knox and to publicly release those findings.
