Most investments have fallen all year. When they did rise, it was only to bait the bulls and then fall further once again. All assets are adjusting to a world where money is no longer free, so corporations must now earn their way. Gold has taken a more gentle path, and in recent months has […]

“Sooner or later, there will be push-back against the Dems’ attempt to turn the USA into some kind of obese transgender liberal Wakanda run by crooks, freaks and thugs.†—The Vineyard of The Saker Golden dawn will have the Twitterbirds singing a new morning song, ending the old sameness of sterilized thought.

Cashless Society Talk Goes Mainstream in a Hurry and Should Be Trusted Like the NSA
Posted November 22, 2022 By David Haggith
We’re on the brink of a dramatic change where we’re about to — and I’ll say this boldly — we’re about to abandon the traditional system of money, and accounting, and introduce a new one…. The new accounting is what we call “blockchain.” It means digital. It means having an almost perfect record of every […]

Jeffrey A. Tucker: Maybe the Fed Too Was Trolled
Posted November 13, 2022 By David Haggith
The Federal Reserve – and central banks the world over – played a crucial role in making lockdowns possible and weaponizing the panic of politicians. As the lender of last resort and the provider of liquidity for the entire federal government, it removes normal fiscal restraint. It writes checks that cannot bounce to fuel governments in […]

Dr. Pippa: Pishi and Porcupine: Discussing Issues that Are Too Prickly to be Touched
Posted November 12, 2022 By David Haggith
Human beings, especially human beings in positions of high authority, can be amongst the most overconfident, un-self-aware prickly people you’ll ever meet. Power pumps up the ego and raises the risk of screw-ups which makes humans defensive, brittle, and paranoid. Politics with a small “p†makes people separate into little groups of like thinkers. Priesthoods […]

Posted November 6, 2022 By David Haggith
Our president, who originally said he was going to help bring our nation back together after four years of Trump, was back to pounding wedges again this week, speaking of Republicans as fascists, even though he was the leader who chose to stand in the dark, backlighted by fierce red like Hitler at a night […]

MN Gordon: Are You Ready for the Coming U.S. Government Default?
Posted November 5, 2022 By David Haggith
The vast herd of investors are a deluded crowd. Following the Federal Reserve’s much anticipated 75 basis point rate hike on Wednesday the major stock market indexes jumped upward. Then they fell. Now they’ve bolted back upward again. Their delirious….

David Stockman: What History Tells Us About Taming Inflation
Posted November 5, 2022 By David Haggith
Historic precedent tells us high inflation like we have now is darn hard to beat down. Jerome Powell also just told everyone it is so hard to beat down that the Fed hasn’t even seen what it would consider a “dent” in inflation in all of its months of trying. How big is the battle […]
