Been saying this for years - in fact, I just voiced it again yesterday in a group discussion. It is my sincere belief that the gold (maybe all, maybe just a significant portion of same) that supposedly exists at Fort Knox was delivered out many decades ago to places like Israel, China, maybe even European countries, in exchange for influence, graft, money laundering, et cetera. Even if the USG were to attempt to resuscitate the gold standard, a run on the assets would quickly prove that "there is no 'there' there".

Canada did actually audit their gold holdings a few decades ago and came up short. Nothing was done about it - no investigations, nothing. But they did at least admit that the audit failed.

And remember all the gold/precious metals supposedly held at the WTC? I remember people asking about it, but I don't remember ever hearing any response to those queries.
