GOVERNMENT BY TRICKERY MUST END -- It was rugged men and women mining gold in these very streams and rivers that gave Placerville its name and built California into what it is today. There is still a lot of gold left from the early days of the gold rush; estimates are as high as eighty percent or more. We all know how much the fortunes of our citizens, and the economy of the whole county, could use a boost. With the price of gold rising and the value of the dollar sinking, we can use all the gold and the economic boost it brings. California should not just allow mining, it should promote it.
