I sat down with John Rubino of Dollar Collapse to discuss the current state of our economic world. In a very lively conversation, we hit some of the more pressing items of the day. John has done a fantastic job of documenting the demise of the dollar since he co-authored ”The Collapse of the Dollar” with James Turk back in 2004. John’s insights and analysis are top shelf and he should be on everyone’s list of people to follow.
How many “emergency” “secret” meetings do the central planners around the world need to have before the citizens of the respective countries begin to fully understand and take notice that something is very, very wrong?

- Federal Reserve balance sheet at $4 TRILLION – U.S. debt at $20 TRILLION and counting
- United Kingdom/Britain and the Brexit movement that is taking root
- U.S. Presidential candidates, Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders, garnering global attention as the citizens of the U.S. seek alternatives to the current embedded criminal politicians.
- Japan instituting a Negative Interest Rate Policy (NIRP) for their sovereign bonds – Japan has basically been in a recession for over 20 years
- China is manufacturer to the world and with economies slowing down or shutting down, there is no reason to manufacture products
These are just a few of the items that are currently hampering growth for individual citizens and individual Western nations. Currently, there are just too …read more
