Gold Confiscation 1933 vs Today: Can It Happen Again?

Описание: On April 5, 1933, the US government made it not legal to own gold, threatening prison time and massive fines for non-compliance. But while history books claim Americans dutifully surrendered their wealth, the forensic record reveals a different reality: up to 80% of privately held gold was never turned in. This video uncovers the specific legal loopholes and practical methods—from numismatic exemptions to foreign storage—that ordinary citizens used to protect their savings from seizure.

We analyze the true intent behind Executive Order 6102, contrasting the 1933 monetary crisis with today's financial landscape. Is a modern gold confiscation possible? We examine the current laws, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, and explain why holding physical gold outside the banking system remains the ultimate protection against systemic risk compared to ETFs and bank-held assets.
