Agree with what you said, Zeev. It is however a damning reflection on the times that we live in now. At any time in recorded human history, there are always regimes around the world that insist on having "national/tribal ownership" of the gold tooth fillings of their citizens/serfs/slaves. The US used to be a champion of freedom and individual rights . . . such as private property being sacresanct, innocent until proven guilty, a man's money is his alone until proven otherwise, etc.. All that new nirvana of oversight, of course, carries with it enormous costs: both in terms of the busybodies pushing paper and doing the oversight, and more importantly impede capital flow to this country. A banker (the US is the banker of the world) that makes banking too onerous for his clients would simply lose his clients.
