The Fed’s Body Count
The Fed’s Body Count “The problem with the war (Vietnam), as it often is, are the metrics. It is a situation where if you can’t count what’s important, you make what you can count important.

Your Move, Gold Critics: Please Explain What Money Is
Your Move, Gold Critics: Please Explain What Money Is Owners of Bitcoin have endured a wild ride in recent years.

The coin’s substantial volatility ably explains why, at least […]
The true feasibility of moving away from fossil fuels
The true feasibility of moving away from fossil fuels One of the great misconceptions of our time is the belief that we can move away from fossil fuels if we make suitable choices on fuels.

Fear of Inflation & Sterilization
Fear of Inflation & Sterilization QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; you were friends with Milton Friedman. Do you agree with his view that the Great Depression was caused in part by the Fed refusing to expand the money supply? Isn’t Quantitative Easing expanding the money supply yet it too has failed to create inflation. Would you comment on […]
Globalists Are Bringing Their One World Currency Plans Out Into The Open
Globalists Are Bringing Their One World Currency Plans Out Into The Open People often ask me when they should begin to worry about the agenda for the “global economic reset” and the controlled demolition of the economy?

Trump Cares About Two Things – Empire and the Stock Market
Trump Cares About Two Things – Empire and the Stock Market Though not surprising, it’s nevertheless extraordinary to watch Donald Trump publicly and shamelessly morph into a George W. Bush era neocon when it comes to foreign policy, and a CNBC stock market cheerleader when it comes to the economy. Just like Barack Obama before […]
Fiat World
Fiat World That’s a still photo from the Netflix documentary “Behind the Curve”, a really good movie about the Flat Earth movement. I’ll come back to this in a minute. But first … I was going to save this email for the Mailbag, but couldn’t resist using it now. Hey There Ben You and […]
Four ways that Uncle Sam will respond to its $75 trillion insolvency
Four ways that Uncle Sam will respond to its $75 trillion insolvency Last week I told you that the US government recently reported a negative net worth of MINUS $75 TRILLION. That’s not a type-o.

CAN EXPANSIONARY FISCAL AND MONETARY POLICIES COUNTER RECESSIONS? When signs of economic weakness emerge, most economics experts are quick to embrace the ideas of John Maynard Keynes. For most economists the Keynesian remedy is always viewed with positive benefits- if in doubt just push more money and boost government spending to resolve any possible economic […]
Why Are American Communities Dying?
Why Are American Communities Dying? Most Americans who have been around for a while know life is nothing like it used to be. When someone wanted a job one was found with a little bit of searching. Today jobs are difficult to find, especially in small communities. When I was growing up in the 70’s, there […]
