Why do ultra-right-wingers flip out over gold?

apparently nobody believes in a mad-maxian apocalypse, huh? The only ones who talk about collapse of civilization seem to be moronic libtards who ascribe their dumb imaginings to decent Conservative folks. Normal people understand that we can have economic breakdown, political turmoil, war and all sorts of bad stuff, but civilization will go right on going. It always kept on going in the past and it will always keep on going in the future.
