To have a strong currency, you must have a thrifty working class that is supported by a living wage. A working class that produces real goods.
Alexander Hamilton coined the phrase, the Productive Powers of Labor and noted the importance of Manufacturing
in his Reports to the U.S Congress. America was built by highly skilled and highly paid immigrant labor combined with great inventors who fled Europe seeking freedom from the British Empire.
Todays New British Empire, London and Wall Street, a newly constituted Money Empire invests in high tech weapons systems to police the world with the intention of ruling a World Government based on Slavery.
The U.S. Declaration of Independence was written and signed by the Founding Fathers, mostly self-educated men, who instructed Americans what they must do to keep their Republic.
What specific action can we take? Seriously! Personally and publicly? Give me some action steps. We need a specific playbook. I’m 68 and retired. Should I run for public office? Or should I just hide my cash and gold and silver in a hole in my backyard? My main concern is that my kids (23-35 and all working) don’t have a chance in this economy.

The reason we are failing is our leadership. Our leaders lack accountability to the people, treating their positions as personal property. They prioritize their own desires over the will of those they serve. A lack of integrity and morality has historically destroyed more empires than mere ignorance or incompetence. Truth has been abandoned in governance, and we have allowed leadership to be dominated by dishonesty, often selecting individuals who distort or obscure the truth.
Until we demand accountability from our leaders and enforce it with meaningful consequences, we will continue to fail. For example, why should any president have the authority to pardon a convicted murderer, a court of his peers convicted him. Why is it acceptable for a member of Congress to use insider information to amass millions in personal wealth? The same people put Martha Stewart in jail for the same sin. Corruption and deception have been constants in governance, with virtually no administration free from falsehoods.
One suggestion: why not require every government official and governement employee to take an oath of office that explicitly includes the clause “under penalty of perjury”?
Under 18 U.S.C. § 1621, lying under oath in federal court or official proceedings is punishable by up to 5 years in federal prison. Yet, isn’t it strange how lawmakers often seem to place themselves above the law? The very individuals responsible for creating laws are rarely held to the same standard as those who must abide by them. How long would the president have to stay in jail if served 5 years for each lie in his fairwell speech.
While America has had its share of good days, it was never perfect—simply better than many alternatives. Waiting for promises like “Make America Great Again” is futile without addressing these systemic failures. True greatness requires morality, honesty, accountability, and integrity from leadership.
The ultra rich should atleast be grateful to the middle class and poor for keeping them wealthy. In the end we can only hope we all get what we deserve.
Very good article Greg and you are spot on about the Irish/French economist Richard Cantillion as i have read his works.
Government having little regard for its subjects is the historical norm not exception since the tyrannical emporers of Rome. But in the West democracy is used as a vehicle to keep people docile and intellectually subverting into a false pretense as a way of life.
I’d encourage you to listen to Martin Armstrong as he points out there is a whole more to it than just raising interest rates. It’s much more complicated that that but Martin does a pretty good job of explaining it in layman terms
I believe that you may be missing one central point: a strong currency backed by precious metals (gold and or silver) does NOT need high interest rates to make them strong as they represent real wealth, gold and silver!
Trump is an anti-chirst wolf in sheep clothing but that is not why I write.
Sorry but listening yesterday some of your comments to another family member struck a nerve. You get upset when listeners cannot accept some of the things you say. I also get frustrated trying to awaken friends and family and tell myself to give up trying. We become entrenched in our beliefs and our ego refuses to accept that maybe we are wrong. We cannot except that we were lied to and believe the BS.
Well Greg I hate to try to inform you because I know where it will go. And a side note, you claim to be a believer in God, as do I. We do NOT live on a spinning globe. Earth is biblical and I can provide hundreds of Bible passages I wish you would read and considered.
So as rates are artificially lowered more debt is purchased by Central Banks, Corporations, Vanguard and Blackrock in the form of Treasury bills or bonds and those large purchases of debt require more digital cash to be printed. The Central Banks have no cash. They have to print it to buy bonds.

It's up to Americans to take action!

Taxation Without Representation is Treason!
Mount a campaign to refuse to pay taxes to fund War!!
Hold anti-war signs, be a pamphleteer like the Revolutionists.
Cancel the Debt. Rebuild American Manufacturing. If we can go to the moon, we can build high speed maglev transportation systems.
Mass produce affordable housing, not Trump Towers.

I hate Trump for the bankster traitor he is.
Argiem … sometimes hate is needed
A time for hate. It is written.
Thing is, it takes away from everything else that matters.
It doesn't make anything better. It ages you beyond your years.
And yet, it is nesscessary.
The ultra rich should atleast be grateful to the middle class and poor for keeping them wealthy. In the end we can only hope we all get what we deserve.
I save my Hate for Jamie Dimon and Chase they put my Ex n me thru the wringer for years after the 2008 crash.. never to be forgiven

Matlock,
You are absolutely 100% correct in your analyses on our leaders.
We live in two worlds the truth and the lie. The people are starting to see it but
most feel afraid that they can do nothing about it. We are in essence being destroyed from
within. It may already be to late to save this Country but for those of us that still see a glimmer of
hope for a chance to bring it back it can be done with the help of our creator. Never give up!
Greg,
I believe that you may be missing one central point: a strong currency backed by precious metals (gold and or silver) does NOT need high interest rates to make them strong as they represent real wealth, gold and silver!

Always on point Gregory! Sadly, the sheep only understand "lower" payments. They do not get it at all.
This is one of the great posts. Ignore it at your peril.
When they asked Benjamin Franklin what kind of government do we have?
He said a Republic if you can keep it!!
Thanks for the info
Humbly... May I suggest We can do better? We no longer need to ensure We all are adding energy... I go into it here:

Thanks for keep us up to date GREG, you know we're happy to have you!
Hello Greg.
I have a question for you Greg and anyone who is looking at this post.
Is the QFS real, and if it does exist, how does one get signed up for the QFS? I'm new to all of this!
So as rates are artificially lowered more debt is purchased by Central Banks, Corporations, Vanguard and Blackrock in the form of Treasury bills or bonds and those large purchases of debt require more digital cash to be printed. The Central Banks have no cash. They have to print it to buy bonds.
