Calling someone a “weasel” is an American idiom that makes an unflattering comparison between a person and an animal. The Merriam Webster dictionary defines “weasel” this way:
- Noun: Any of various small, slender, active carnivorous mammals (genus Mustela of the family Mustelidae, the weasel family) that are able to prey on animals (such as rabbits) larger than themselves.
- Noun: A sneaky, untrustworthy or insincere person.
- Intransitive verb. To use weasel words: equivocate.
“Equality” is often a weasel word. There is a valid Christian interpretation of the term, which some do use in good faith. But without question, there are others who are using the term “equality” to gaslight and manipulate, to grasp wealth and power.
The Magic Word
The dictionary goes on to define “equivocate” this way: “to avoid giving a definite answer or position.”
In modern America, “equality” is a weasel word in exactly this sense. We Americans are extremely attached to the idea of equality as an unambiguous good. Once a person invokes the shibboleth of “equality,” he is shielded from having to give precise answers about what he intends to do. Further questions are forbidden.
The concept of “equality” has a couple of traits in which ambiguity can be hidden. This concealed ambiguity, in turn, makes “equality” appealing to those who wish to deceive. […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
