About the Ads on This Page

I have no control over what ads show up here. Mr Google, whoever he is, generates them.
I notice they have an ad for Goldline. Wikipedia says about them,
South Carolina customers filed a class action lawsuit against Goldline alleging them of "overcharging consumers, deceptive advertising and deceptive sales techniques", in violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, unfair and deceptive trade practices, and unjust enrichment. Later in September, 2010, Goldline hired a top Washington D.C. lobbying firm to assist the company with the investigations.
New York Representative Anthony Weiner accused Goldline of overcharging with average markups of 90% to 152%. Dylan Ratigan, a television financial commentator, said that because Goldline is selling gold at 90% more than one could buy it on a gold exchange-traded fund, it would be a "dumb" purchase. He went on to characterize Beck and Goldline as "largely snake oil salesman and scumbags trying to create money for themselves" by "fear mongering" at the buyer's expense.
