As Our Economy Drifts into Bankruptcy and Financial Crisis, So Does Trust - John Rubino #5286
Summary: As our economy drifts into bankruptcy and financial crisis, we are experiencing a widespread loss of trust. I sit down and chat with John Rubino to dissect this, and it seems that we are within a system and cycle that isn\u2019t working so well anymore. We discuss tax changes, healthcare issues, debt, and some of the factors that are ultimately creating a larger controversy. Highlights: -There has been a major loss of trust\u2014people are perceiving things as either dishonesty or incompetence as we drift into bankruptcy and financial crisis -Don\u2019t try to change the system; leave it -The US and Europe are tax havens in some areas -New York is letting go 70,000 unvaccinated healthcare workers, which is going to create a massive shortage in healthcare workers -When interest rates goes up, that means that market participants demand them to go up before lending money to anyone -The yields on US government debts are starting to rise in response to inflation -Other countries have to pay more to borrow\u2014dollar denominated debt -Many small problems will eventually create a larger energy crisis -Energy and food are quite closely related -Water is also skyrocketing in price\u2014requires energy to get delivered to your home Useful Links: Financial Survival Network Dollar Collapse \u2018Pandora papers\u2019 reveal how world leaders dodge millions in taxes \xa0\xa0 NY deploys National Guard to replace 70,000 unvaccinated health workers\xa0 Facebook\u2019s covid fact-checker is funded by vaccine lobby \xa0 $2.2 million raised for Marine in brig after criticizing Afghan chaos Look at all the millionaires in Congress \xa0(1% of Americans are millionaires, but 50% of congressmen are) Fauci says \u2018too early to tell\u2019 if Americans can celebrate Christmas \xa0 If we have time ...
