On the gold question, you can go down to your local coin shop and buy American gold eagles for the gold spot market price plus a small buyer's fee (usually around $15.00, at least when I purchased them) per coin. I have also acquired some coins along with my stocks and as of today, I could resell the coins at a nice profit even including the original buyer's fees.
As for Bush's economic policies, the jury is still out. The US economy seems to be making a slow but steady recovery, and the housing market here in Cali is booming - especially when it comes to industrial and office properties. What people around here refer to as the "inland empire" region of California is making an especially good recovery.
I find it rather difficult to share Jaguar's gloomy outlook - mine is one of guarded optimism. But then I'm just a valley girl, so what would I know?
