Gold is repricing trust.
Below is the updated debt-to-gold ratio.
For 100+ years it climbed almost in one direction as fiat replaced discipline.
As @LynAldenContact has shown, gold couldn’t keep up with the telegraph — money had to move faster than metal.
As @saifedean explains, WWI accelerated the break from sound money and ushered in the debt-laden fiat century.
The ratio just turned — but not because debt fell.
Our schools teach us so much about humanity’s failures and so little about its extraordinary achievements. How many hundreds, perhaps thousands, of people like William Wilberforce helped change the world for the better, yet remain largely unknown? Their stories deserve to be known to us all.
Today, in 1759, William Wilberforce was born.
His work helped free at least 800,000 slaves and set in motion abolitionist movements that freed millions more worldwide.

This is one of Saifedean’s most important statements.
Economic growth does not require an expanding money supply as MMT suggests. Growth increases the purchasing power of the money that already exists.
Printing more money transfers purchasing power from those who hold it to those who create and receive the new money first.
That is theft.

BREAKING: Water is wet.
Of course the woman who wanted to recruit an “anti-crypto army” is unwilling to acknowledge the many positive things digital assets have done for affordability and everyday Americans, so allow me to name a few:
-Payroll processing takes 5 days on average today, as you can see below. Stablecoins permit employers to pay their employees nearly instantly. For most Americans living paycheck-to-paycheck, getting paid 5 days earlier is a big deal.
-Warren’s beloved big banks charge nearly 15% to send $200 overseas, and the money takes days or weeks to arrive. Digital assets spare its customers many of the unnecessary fees and can move the funds nearly instantly, any day of the week.
For someone who claims to champion affordability and hates junk fees, she sure loves protecting them. Ultimately, digital assets have made a clear case, but she just keeps voting against them and the rules of the road she claims she wants, because she actually wants to kill crypto.
Builders should plan accordingly.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), the incoming Banking chair, could not name a positive impact of crypto on the financial system.
“I’m still waiting for crypto to make that case,” she told me.

“There are severe limits to the good that the government can do for the economy, but there are almost no limits to the harm it can do.”

One of the most iconic movie scenes of all time. The dialogue remains solid after half a century!
Ignorant question.
What we lose is our right to break away from the dependence on governments' control of our money.
Tyranny gains ever-tighter control over political opponents through digitization.
You either don't understand this or you don't care about it now. But separating money and state is a critically important check against tyranny.
Let's hope we never need to understand it the wrong way. But we should all ensure that it exists for those who suffer under tyrannical rule.

Ninety years ago, John Maynard Keynes dismissed gold as a “barbarous relic” and recommended the pursuit of paper money. Today, we see the inflationary fruit of the poisonous tree. | George Ford Smith

Per, I may have to put this paragraph on my wall.
Our obsession with counting corporate “jobs” risks prompting governments to protect the old economy at the expense of the new one.
People want to make a living, not necessarily have a job. AI could make that easier by freeing us to create value in ways our employment statistics won't capture.
