The anti-gold people misunderstand deflation's effect on precious metals.

As far as I can tell Gold has gone up in price in every major US financial crisis/panic/depression since 1800, both with inflation and deflation. Gold is a means of preservation of wealth--it thrives when there is serious economic uncertainty/instability.

And it's really quite silly that some won't even look at a gold site, but it explains their ignorance about the gold market and industry.
