If Im taking a risk I would like to be the responsible person to be able judge my actions based on that without the interference of any other entities dictating to me where to invest.
I probably would not need to hedge if our dear Government would stop printing money out of thin air, live within there budget and go back to a gold standard - if we have any left. An entity that makes 39 thousand a year spends 57 thousand a year is bankrupt. Clean up your own house first.
