What's most important here is the REASON. There is no logical reason to fix the price of gold except to save their friendly contributors, goldmansachs and other large hedge funds who are massively short gold.

Fixing the price of gold is a good start but doesn't go far enough.

They should also agree to fix the price of stocks - just as a protection for the American people.
