Summary:
It seems as if everything we’ve worked for in Western civilization
is crumbling, and I have Doug Casey on the show to talk about some
of the economic catastrophes that have been unfolding. As time
passes, we’re seeing more shortages, increased prices, and
intensifying inflation. With the government putting out unreliable
figures and doing the opposite of what should be done to resolve
inflation, things seem to be headed downhill quickly.
Highlights:
-We’re seeing shortages, increasing prices, and inflation
-The figures the government is putting out are not completely
reliable
-The collapse of Western civilization seems to be upon us
-In an advanced industrial society, supply chains are complex, and
the people in charge are doing the opposite of what actually should
be done
-International air travel is down 80%
-The world is tipping towards collectivism
-The digitization of the US dollar is also bringing large
changes
-The government may opt to put out wage and price controls
-Who is going to collapse the old economy and move towards the free
economy? It seems that no one is willing to take this step
-During the next 3-4 years, we are in for rough times in the US
