I have also heard that farmers are getting the least for milk since the depression. My Uncles brother runs a small dairy farm, last time he brought it up(about a year ago), they were getting just over $13 per hundredweight from the milk company. For the size of his operation he needs at least $18 per hundredweight to just break even. They are basically giving the milk away for free and have been for a few years now and is on the verge of losing the family farm because of it.

"Family farm" has a nice ring to it, but they're the source of a tiny portion of our food, and most farmers have "real jobs".
I don't mean to offend, but what advice would you give a coin dealer if they were getting just over $1300 per ounce from the refinery and the size of his operation needs at least $1800 per ounce to just break even. They are basically giving the gold away for free.

The way it is wrote it sounds like you are saying that they are lossing $500 an ozt. My advice would be to lock the doors if they are lossing $500 an ozt and get a real job.

They would only have a future in banking if they could figure out how to pass that $500 loss onto the consumer Ed. They should stick with government.

With the silver price down the US mint had suspended pricing on their silver for repricing the site said. Well today actually last night the Proof sets went back for sale with No price change. Who knows what will happen with the rest of it but Gold and Platinum Eagles came down some more with Pt at 1792 for the proof almost 100 less than gold eagles

If you're losing $500 every time you sell $1300 worth of milk (gold, whatever), it's time to find another vocation.

I am sure that they would claim that passing along that $500 loss was for "the good of the children" or some similar nonsense.

Maybe, I sound a little callous, but I have a family to feed, cars and trucks that need fuel, and stack of bills just like everyone else. So it's off to work I go to make money.
