Remember Dorothy from the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz? What many people don’t know is the film was based on L. Frank Baum’s book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, a political allegory for American politics. It was about the demonetization of silver in 1873. The Yellow Brick Road represents…
Lately, I’ve heard a lot of nonsense fueled by apathy, misinformation, inflated egos, willful blindness, propaganda, and distractions galore. So here’s my attempt to empower you with some facts I know about history, so that you can read and interpret current events from a new and improved perspective, and you…
Bitcoin has a market cap which is less than Tesla stock, so its price can move swiftly in any direction. Gold has a $9 trillion market cap, and that doesn’t include gold bars stored in the vaults of 100+ sovereign nations. Sovereign nations are not buying Bitcoin; gamblers and other…

It’s right in front of us, but we do not see. I’m not talking about the coronavirus or the bailout packages or the stay-at-home orders. Nor am I talking about the banking issues, small businesses going bust, mega corporations in trouble, or all the unemployed. The “Titanic” (fiat financial system)…
While the pandemic is the main focus of the media now, there’s something else going on behind the scenes (the impact of U.S. dollar losing its status as world reserve currency). The U.S. has been insolvent for a long time now. Technically, America is bankrupt, but the world is still…
The Dow Jones was extremely volatile Monday thru Friday. In percentage terms, it was the worst week since the 2008 financial crisis. Down 4000 points, it had the largest weekly drop ever. Although I have been worried about a stock market crash for a long time now, and everyone was…
