Democrats seize Washington’s checkbook — are your savings next? (Ad)

The morning after Democrats took Congress, gold jumped almost 3% and silver rose more than 4%. The dollar dropped. No bill had passed and no new member had been sworn in. More spending means bigger deficits, and bigger deficits mean a weaker dollar. Those are conditions where gold has historically done well. Conservative savers have seen this pattern before: more spending, more printing, and savings that buy less each year.tc pixel
