The price of gold goes up slowly so nobody makes good money off it.  They manipulate it so nobody can make real money off it.    If you want to destroy the fed you need to buy bitcoin.  Gold is entrenched with governments and bankers.  Bitcoin is free from banks, decentralized, it has a set limit which is known, and it's deflationary.  Which means bitcoin will go up not down in the long term.  Gold will be worth a few pennies more than you bought it for and will keep the bankers in business.  Gold's price has barely moved in the past 5 years.
