So, no, he isn't "corrupt" by advocating its purchase. And you don't have to buy gold through his sponsor, you can buy it plenty of other places. Now, you can make the argument that it's a conflict of interest since he endorses the company on his radio show and also that it is against Fox News policy. However, neither of those things equals corruption.<a href="http://www.pdabuyingguide.com/pda-sync-devices-cables-9140"> Jay</a> Gold is always a good buy, and I think he really believes in it.

This is silly... you will get a high return, bu rich because of Beck - come on! Gold is like stocks - buy low, sell high. Right now its time to sell, NOT buy like Beck is suggesting. I don't think he is corrupt per se, but he IS misleading the public.<a href="http://www.safedebthelp.com/debt-self-help.htm"> Your Horns are Showing Morris.</a> I find it interesting that answerers say things like “you’d be rich if you listened to him!” This is silly… you will get a high return, bu rich because of Beck - come on!

He is not scaring people into buying gold and thus, is not corrupt. Problem solving has at least four steps. First, there is the fear or concern. Second, there is the evaluation of whether this fear or concern is an actual problem or not. Third, solutions to the problem are evaluated. Fourth, a course of action is taken to solve the problem. Someone who peddles scare tactics doesn't have any rational argument for getting past step 1. All they have is a fear to exploit and herd the people in order to achieve their agenda. The Obama Administration economic policies are a real threat to the dollar. Before Beck even got involved, people were flocking to gold to protect their investments. This alone is proof that Beck's argument for gold is more than just a scare tactic. Gold prices as of late, another. It is not the safest of investments, but it's good for a well-rounded portfolio. As soon as the US credit rating drops and/or China starts realizing how reckless we are with our spending and cuts us off, you'll see inflation the likes of which you haven't seen since the Carter Administration.<a href="http://www.namingmybaby.com/baby-girl-name.htm"> Socrates</a> Your question is a non sequitur.

Hmmm! If the words of a commentator are going to make you run out and buy gold, you must be pretty weak minded. That's like saying a commentator is unethical into "scaring" you into buying health insurance, "scaring" you into buying medications for some health condition, etc. Commercials are all about creating an awareness of a possible need. What's the big deal?<a href="http://www.namingmybaby.com/hawaiian-baby-names.htm"> kathy_is_a_nurse</a> “…scaring us into buying gold…”

Nothing Beck has said about the economy is untrue, if you find it scary, welcome to the club. His sponsors are interested in selling gold to the public. Advertising on shows with Becks demographics is also a smart decision. If you want to look at things your way, have a look at Al Gore and his Global Warming scare tactics in his movie then take a look at his company that sells carbon credits. I am sure you have heard about Al Gore's massive carbon footprint. Do you know Gore buys his carbon offsets through Generation Investment Management? Gore helped found Generation Investment Management, through which he and others pay for offsets. Gore is chairman of the firm. In other words, he "buys" his "carbon offsets" from himself, through a transaction designed to boost his own investments and return a profit to himself. But you attack Beck? *<a href="http://www.teambuildingdirectory.com/team-building-workshop.htm"> Jacob W</a> Buying gold during such turbulent economic times is prudent.
