Treating gold and silver as money
May 12, 2024 update: Nebraska ended capital gains taxes on sales of gold and silver With Gov. Jim Pillen's signature.Older news:
42 states have removed some or all taxes from the purchase of gold and silver.
And there are new bills pending now in five of the eight remaining states, i.e. Tennessee, Mississippi, Kentucky, Hawaii, and New Jersey.
In 2019, the Sound Money Defense League teamed up with sound money advocates in West Virginia to eliminate sales taxes on precious metals.
A similar effort will be considered in Olympia, Washington.
Passage into law would relieve some of the tax burdens on investors, and would also take a step toward treating gold and silver as money instead of as commodities.
Repealing these taxes knocks down one barrier that might keep some investors from considering physical metal for their portfolios.

What is Sound Money? Monetary reset
A somewhat polemical term for a currency backed by a tangible commodity such as gold, silver or platinum. Sound money has an intrinsic value, but is more susceptible to deflation than fiat money. Many countries used sound money throughout most of their histories; however, most countries today use fiat money and have since the United States left the Bretton Woods System in the 1970s. The term "sound money" is often used by those who favor its reintroduction. The more common term is hard money.Given the current fiat money system is on a path towards its own destruction it is not surprising that there has been increasing talk of a monetary reset.

UN Urges Debt Relief for Developing Nations
The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) warns that the debt crisis in developing nations has reached unprecedented levels, with debt servicing consuming an increasing share of national revenues at the expense of development.A new policy brief, released ahead of the G20 finance ministers meeting in Cape Town, highlights that 56 developing countries now spend over 10% of their revenue on interest payments, with 17 exceeding 20%, heightening default risks.
Total external public debt for the 31 poorest nations at risk of debt distress is estimated at $205 billion, while global debt servicing reached a record $1.4 trillion in 2023.
UNDP urges immediate reforms, including a more effective debt restructuring framework, systemic relief initiatives, and reduced borrowing costs to prevent a lost decade of development.
The upcoming Financing for Development conference in June will be a key platform for addressing these urgent issues.
