A block of gold is worth $1k today, tomorrow it's $500. Where did that money go? It's just the price people are willing to pay. Maybe the seller found 100 more blocks of gold and is running …

Unless you wish to dissolve the local governments in these towns, there is no way to do this. It's a constant struggle between monied interests enacting ordinances that allow them to remain monie…
