There are some very prominent individuals who are selling people false hope and a false sense of security by claiming that the solution to the problems we face is simply to convince everyone to buy up large quantities of physical silver, and that this alone will be enough to unseat the banking elite while at the same time protecting those smart enough to make this investment from the worst effects of the inevitable economic collapse. This perspective is delusional and dangerous, in much the same way that the false promises of snake oil salesmen who sold opium to cancer patients were dangerous and I'm explain why.
