Government Debt and Gold
The Scottish historian Tyler was talking about ancient Athens when he wrote the famous quote previously mentioned in his site, The Fall of a Republic, but he could have been talking about the United States in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. For you who understand the current economic situation in the Untied States, Tyler’s progression holds an unsettling ring of familiarity. The national debt – now, well over seven trillion dollars and still growing exponentially – lies at the heart of what is eating up this nation. And that debt most definitely is originated with the electorate and special interests voting themselves largess from the public treasury. The way you understand this dilemma and the way you can protect yourself against the seemingly inevitable historic processes it threatens to ignite will be critical to your financial well-being in the coming years. |
