Our dollar-money is about to become worthless, so use it now to buy gold. How many times have I read this pitch recently? The dollar has lost only 98% of its value since 1913. Just 2% to go, right? Well, the real story is different and critically important to surviving the hard-times that are surely coming – fast.
Prices seem to go up daily. It’s harder and harder to keep spending in line with income. We keep maxing out our credit cards. Scary times. Why is this happening? Why can’t somebody do something about it? What is the real story behind the inflation we are experiencing? The real story isn’t what they are telling us.
Roughly 18% of the U.S. workforce is employed in federal, state, or local governments, nearly 30 million people. About half the country thinks that’s too many while the other half thinks that’s too few. Yet, government as a percentage of population has been decreasing for 50 years. Why do we need (so much) government anyway? Turns out that government size is not the problem.
The increasingly powerful Klaus Schwab, his WEF, and his fast-growing army of supporters and implementers seem to have focused on an approach to a one- world-order that is working. Government-issued digital ID’s plus government-created digital money. And rapidly becoming non-optional. Global leaders are quite open about their objectives. Is this 1984’s obey-or-else time? Or just maybe – something good?
Inflation has become a huge concern lately. As defined both by products price increases and by money supply increases, inflation has jumped noticeably after many years of relative stability. Is this just yet another blip in our COVID-scrambled world, or something much worse? Why do we have inflation? What turns it into a potential monster? Pretty important questions today.
