That was a fraudulent market. The 1980 silver surge was a function of two Billionaire brothers … the Hunts, attempting to corner the market. The feds shut that shit down and threw them in jail for it.
I disagree I think the Hunt brothers were more like a couple scapegoats rather than the reason. Look at gold or platinum or any commodity price chart from back then. Gold 8x Oil 4x platinum 5x They mostly all had huge multifold moves up in price but the Hunt brothers weren't cornering those markets at that time...

That's the mainstream lie, as usual. The Hunt brothers were just doing what a sane person did in the 1970s when they realized the US government, now unhindered by gold-backed fiat $FedBux, were spending like drunken sailors. The "old-timers" understood this in the 1970s. Sadly, mainstream brainwashing has once again been the undoing of the masses.
The truth is, the currency manipulators (cabal banksters) made the government (commodites exchange) pass a new bankster rule (mistakenly called a "law) that prohibited futures speculation on silver in a single day. Because of this, speculators could not go "long" on the future price of silver. But they could still "short" the market. And this this new rule (law) in place, you'd have to be crazy to not "go short". Which is exactly what happened.
The following day, the commodities exchange, influenced by the cabal-bankster-currency-manipulators, forced an unprecedented 24-hour, $135 million margin call on the Hunt brothers. Not only did they not have that much liquid cash on hand, but their investment positions were also long in the futures market at the same time. Thus, in one fell swoop, they were forced by this OBVIOUS UNLAWFUL CABAL MANIPULATION to liquidate their assets (millions of bars of silver).
The Hunt brothers were simply "protecting their wealth" as anybody would at that time. August 1971 is when Nixon (really his cabal bankster handlers - presidents are muppets) decoupled $FedBux from gold. And it wasn't unitl August 1974 that Americans were once again LEGALLY allowed to own gold, following FDR's UNLAWFUL confiscation in 1933. By 1979, the cabal could now do anything they wanted to anybody, and that's exactly what they did to anybody that defied their control.
Most of "history" has been written by the lying cabal. This is simply one of a kazillion examples. Nothing is as it seems...
I never said what the Hunt brothers did was wrong. It WAS the reason for the price spike. ALSO, 100% yes. They got bent over and probed with a DC beltway colon plunger. My wording was not comprehensive. Thats on me. They went to jail for some bullshit administrative state made up rules. I 100% agree they were doing what anyone else would do in their position do.
All good man. I just wanted to "clarify" the BS story, that the Hunt bros were a couple of rich, entitled pricks that tried to 'corner the market" to screw everybody else over. The real "enemy" had to paint them as the enemy so they couldn't be fingered. Same thing as we continue seeing to this very day. Every single mainstream figure, be it in banking, media, government, legal, medical, academic, etc. is doing the same thing.
Frankly, the "real enemy" has yet to be identified, even amidst all this Q rhetoric. Q barely scratched the surface, and frankly, spent way more time pointing fingers at low-level muppets and minions with most of their drops. That old "Saudis--Rothschilds-Soros" triangle thing was even way off the mark, and that was as close as Q ever got to speaking truth to power (which wasn't very close).
But I guess that's just the way it is for now, and there are still very few people who are willing, let alone able to look past the surface narratives and get into the deeper truths. Q woke up a lot of people to the surface level shenanigans, but there's still a mighty long way to go.
Bringing Comey, Soros, Obama, Hillary, Schiff, Pelosi, Fauci, Gates, etc. to "justice" wouldn't even cause a minor hiccup for the, totally as of yet UNMASKED controlling cabal and their ongoing agenda. If anything, such events would only serve to further and deepen their long-standing agenda of promulgating VICTIM CONSCIOUSNESS. As if these bad actors can't be replaced in a nano-second. The controlling cabal has lines a mile long of minions waiting in the wings to fill all their shoes.
Net-Net, if only the masses knew what really happened to the Hunt brothers. Things would get interesting fast if they did. I though the 2013 movie "The Big Short" would wake up a lot of people to what really happened in the 2008-09 financial crash. But I don't think I know a single person that really understood what was so blatantly presented in that film. Even with the closing note about nobody going to jail for any of it didn't particularly strike anybody I know. They all just thought they watched an entertaining movie and figured "well there's nothing I can do about it" so back to the daily grind for me.
All of this and quite a bit more has led me to conclude, that until people finally realize just how wide, vast and deep all the lies they've been told are, the pace of this "Great Awakening" will continue to be glacial.
I often tell people, we're being lied to everything we can't easily verify for ourselves that gives the controlling cabal some advantage over usl. The whole Hunt brothers ordeal seems minor and insignificant in the grand scehme. But truthfully, it's not. It's vitally important that the masses understand their EMPLOYEES (government) are in the full-time business of lying, cheating, deceiving We-The-People for their own nefarious benefit. This has been true since 1865 and we've made next to no progress as of yet, in more people understanding this simple fact. Ron Paul has been the only person in the last 50 years that's even been in the ballpark of exposing the wizard behind the curtain.
Anon, one day you and I need to hang out and have a few beers, on me.
I consider my self well read and hyper-educated on these things, but you gave ole FarPointPatriot a humility check on his knowledge of the Hunt brothers story. Im diving back further down that rabbit hole RIGHT NOW than I was before.

Keep you analysis apples to apples please.

Ridiculous counter-argument.
