The FED is tied to the weak dollar...not the state of the economy or the speculators demands for more liquidity to support the various bubbles...
These "bash down" days on gold and oil will only take you so far...because they never really address the underlying problem of too many dollars being printed for Wall Street and Global Speculation...
So keep bashing gold and oil...and hope some of it rubs off on the dollar...
But it won't longer term...and that is really the problem that Wall Street and Washington are in denial about...
And the costs of the unfunded off the books "wars"....well that's just more shit with which to frost the dollar cake...
Dollar Holders...? EAT SHIT!
