For those of us who are not well-connected elites (those of us who
are not in the 1 percent), there has been no relief since The Great Recession.
While the banksters got bailouts and Wall Street and the banksters benefited
from the money printers, retirement savings were wiped out.
More working-age people than ever before are not working. More
young workers than ever before are still living with their parents. More people
than ever before are on the government dole. Retirement funds have been cashed
out and spent on living expenses. Wages have not kept up with inflation — not
the phony inflation numbers peddled by the Fed and the propaganda media, but
real inflation.
Printing-press money is fertile ground for expanding world crisis.
Crisis and war are excellent covers for national and international chicanery.
Boy, we have it!
How can anyone who is paying attention not recognize these signs
for what they are?
In the last days of Rome, the Emperor, Senate, and whomever else
of influence attempted to literally cut their coin currency in half. They
tried, through full faith and credit of the Roman government, to establish the
belief that the currency was worth the same amount as when it was a full-size
coin.
Does this sound familiar to you?
It is time to realize that the full faith and credit of the U.S.
government is simply a machine used to continually cut the currency in half by
producing more currency. How do they do this? They simply increase
"liquidity," which means making loans available — creating debt. And
to Banksters, debt equals money.
Government(s) and their partners, the central banks, are involved
in history's greatest fraud and deception. They are stealing and have stolen
the wealth of the world with bank credit ("dollars") while forcing
the deception upon the people that they work no longer to build real wealth,
but to accumulate depreciating currency.
We "save" in depreciating currency. We buy life
insurance in depreciating currency. And we leave our estates in depreciating
currency.
Did you know that in the progression of time, the U.S. currency is
depreciating toward zero? The public is trained to accept this as "rising
prices" or inflation. But it is more specifically depreciating paper
money.
The only money that doesn't depreciate over time is that made of
precious metals. Gold and silver allow no such monopoly of credit by central
banks. Gold and silver are not only long- term value, they are forever. They
survive the deception and tyranny of political governments that always turn to
dust.
Turning point
The critical point in awareness is reached when the people
en-masse realize that inflation is permanent.
The result is that they quickly exchange cash for
"things," as they did in Greece a few years ago, and in Venezuela.
I've written to you about how Greek businessmen exchanged their devalued and
inaccessible currency for machinery and equipment, and people bought appliances
and cars. Eventually, this results in economic breakdown and social chaos
unless there is barter and a medium of exchange/store of value like gold.
Even Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank,
said in a speech recently, "We are also seeing increased accumulation of
gold as an alternative reserve asset, possibly driven by countries with closer
geopolitical ties to China and Russia." Those countries are also buying
gold instead of foreign currencies like the dollar. But you're not supposed to
notice that.
There are many ways to extend the life of paper money by
controlling information. The monetary authorities suppress the price of gold as
long as they can; they manipulate public perceptions with a fabricated consumer
price index (CPI); they remove monetary indicators like M3; and they constantly
talk about "managing inflation." They control the media; and, yes,
they constantly talk about the debt ceiling and limiting the national debt.
They talk about the trade imbalance.
All this is spurious nonsense, as anyone listening can hear the
money printing presses roll in the background around the clock. Note that the government
and its politicians never talk about the depreciation and loss of purchasing
power of paper money.
Precious metals are the substance of economic survival. They are
the essence of privacy and the preservation of wealth.
The government reacts to its interpretation of public perceptions
which are closely monitored. At some point, a segment of the population will
become aware of the worthlessness of paper money and trigger an alert to the
greater population. By reading this, you are in this group already. Good for
you!
What are some options for you?
If your pension or retirement fund is in the form of computer
symbols in some bank, and it is, you should consider putting a percentage in
gold coins to keep in your possession. It may turn out to be all you have. And
brother, this is not fear hysteria when you understand how fast things can
implode into financial disaster.
When mainstream "personal finance" websites like
Nerdwallet and Marketwatch start publishing pieces asking "Is it time to
become a financial doomsday prepper?" you know it is past time to turn to
gold.
Many things lie beneath the mystique of gold besides greed and
fear. What I mean is that most Americans think of gold in terms of dollars.
This fact demonstrates the unbelievable power of propaganda over our thought
processes. Yet, the time will come again when we will think of gold in terms of
value, not "dollars." This will be a move back toward the restriction
of politicians and an expansion of and a new birth of human liberty.
Governments hoard gold to stabilize their political and economic
power. At the same time, they downplay gold to the people to destabilize their
psychic and make them dependent on government credit.
Gold stabilizes human emotions, dissipates fear of authority, and
promotes individualism and human dignity. Government-created money (credit)
destabilizes emotions, creates fear of unseen authority, creates political
tyranny, and it expropriates the wealth of the people.
Currency is faith itself — a belief system. When you think of
money or currency, you think of green paper, but 95 percent of
"money" is computer symbols in bank computers. More specifically,
your money is a pure psychological entity that evaporates as confidence fails.
Gold is substance. It is hard currency. It is the only hard
currency. Gold stands on its own.
For gold to be all that we say it is, it needs to be in your
possession. We don't mean in your "safe deposit box" at the bank, and
we certainly don't mean in some "trust" account or being held (although
they usually hold no physical gold) by an ETF (exchange-traded fund) that can
go under, as a record number are right now. Precious metals should be in your
private safe with other valuable effects.
Why gold really, though?
You ask what we're really buying precious metals for. The answer
is threefold: As an investment, as a hedge against inflation, or for reasons of
survival should the entire economic system collapse.
It is difficult, if not impossible, to know your mind as you read
this. I don't know your tolerance for capital losses, how patient you are, or
what your cash flow situation is. I only relate to you what I am doing and it
is up to you to decide what strategy and asset class is most suitable.
For example, recently we wrote in The Bob Livingston Letter® about asset protection
in the "natural vs artificial" economy, the best high-yielding stocks
that pay you to own them, and government financial sleight of hand with
accounting and interest rates.
The prospect of their shenanigans reinforces our position that you
should invest in hard assets that will appreciate in value. Gold and silver
valued at low four figures in paper money are now on the bargain counter as
history will record.
Propaganda keeps the crowd asleep. Some find themselves impoverished
— too late to recover... their good life is gone and their pomp and
circumstance now as silent as a funeral march.
When we mention you should look into investing in gold and silver
with reliable companies like Allegiance Gold, it is to preserve and grow your
wealth for future generations of your family. When I ask you to visit them and
download their latest report "A Safe
Investment In An Unsafe World" because their detailed report shows us the simplest and
most obvious way to buy gold — in its physical or bullion form — it is for your
protection.
I wrote for years, "Don't trust the banks. Most are bankrupt.
Don't put your gold and silver coins in the safe deposit box. Keep them at home
and keep them secret. Don't keep more cash in the bank than is necessary to
cover about a month's worth of bills. This is a flashing red alert."
Those alerts became a three-alarm fire with one of the biggest
bank collapses in history.
Therefore in all my years writing The Bob Livingston Letter®, the longest-running
investment and health newsletter in the world today, I have never spoken to you
about a necessity more urgent than what I have presented to you today.
This is serious business. It is also a serious opportunity
to take charge of your assets and wealth, if you pay attention. But, as always,
information is the key. And avoiding misinformation. We research for you so
that you can offset this and preserve assets. Our priority is long-term value
not short-term paper. One is wealth and one is poverty.
Yours for the truth,
Bob Livingston

Gang of Criminals Trying Trump
Dr. Paul Craig Roberts (PCR), former
Assistant Treasury Secretary and international award-winning journalist, is
worried about freedom and liberty. PCR says with the latest arrest and
prosecution of President Trump, freedom and liberty is dead in America.
PCR explains, “What they do makes it clear they have no claim that they
are representatives of justice holding lawbreakers responsible.
They are the lawbreakers — they
themselves. You go to trial and it’s the criminals who are trying you,
and that’s what’s happened in the United States. This is happening to
President Trump. This is exactly what is happening to him. The
Department of Justice, which is a gang of criminals, is trying Trump, and they
are getting away with it.

Recent discussions about the possibility of the US dollar
losing its status as the world reserve currency have raised concerns about the
potential consequences for the global economy.
Some experts argue that if
the US dollar were to lose its status, it could lead to significant economic,
political, and geopolitical consequences.
The importance of the topic
cannot be overstated, as the US dollar's status as the world reserve currency
has played a significant role in shaping the global economy.
Any changes to this status
could have far-reaching consequences for international trade, financial
markets, and geopolitical power dynamics.
Therefore, it is crucial to
understand the potential consequences of the US dollar losing its status as the
world reserve currency, as well as the possible alternatives that could emerge
as replacements."
Bad news for the US dollar…
If it loses its status as the world's reserve
currency, the consequences across the economy, global power and influence,
geopolitics, trade lines, and more would be devastating.

All I can say to those who didn't or won't prepare [expecting gov't to help]-good luck. Don't come knocking on my door when you're in trouble.
Democrats are skating on thin ice with these indictments of President Trump. They know their cases, especially the one put out by Biden’s DOJ, are flimsy. They are trying to condemn a former president for holding onto documents, something both Barack Obama and Joe Biden did
President Donald J. Trump was officially indicted in a federal courthouse on the false charge that he, the President of the United States, mishandled documents that he, the sole elected member of the Executive Branch, had the singular and total authority to possess in any manner he pleased
Biden's $5M Bribe Caught On Voice Recording-few in lamestream media seem to notice---rats of a feather I guess.
Most everyone we know is sick n tired of BS dem-communists & the leftist stuff they push-may they all rot in hell.
