Governments Sold Their Nations Into Debt Slavery During Covid


How many times have we heard that oil prices and inflation are increasing the cost of governments’ borrowing?  How many times have we heard that this is because of events in the Strait of Hormuz? 

You may be surprised, or not, to discover that they are not telling you the full story.

Oil prices and inflation are proximate causes, economist Peter C. Earle says. The real problem began several years ago during the so-called covid pandemic. [Read More]



50 Survival Lessons From the Great Depression - The Horrifying Things Americans Did When Money, Jobs, and Hope Disappeared

Editor’s Note

We publish this piece in the August of 2026, as the machinery of global commerce groans and sputters, as hollow men in expensive suits speak of “corrections” and “adjustments” while families count pennies in dimly lit kitchens. The photograph you see above - those gaunt men hunched over bowls of thin soup, their eyes fixed on some middle distance between hunger and dignity - was snapped nearly a century ago, yet it could have been taken yesterday in any tent city stretching like a scar across the American landscape. We do not traffic in false nostalgia here, nor in the cheap comfort of historical distance. The Great Depression was not a sepia-toned folktale; it was a meat-grinder that chewed through 25 percent of the working population, that evicted grandmothers into snowbanks, that turned proud men into beggars and children into scavengers. The bones of that era still jut through the soil of our present moment - visible to anyone brave enough to look. What follows is not a curiosity shop of antiquated customs, but a field manual written in blood and hunger, a record of how ordinary human beings refused to break when the world snapped in half. Read it. Memorize it. The wolves are already at the door. [Read More]



Silver Price Tripled In A Year: What Happens If It Keeps Going?

In January 2025, silver traded as low as $30 per ounce. Yesterday – just twelve months later – it surpassed $93, recording an all-time high. This isn’t a short-lived spike driven by speculation alone – its surge follows tightening physical supply, rising industrial demand, and growing geopolitical influence over critical materials. Its late 2025 rally – shooting from $45/oz on 28 October to $83 just two months later – initially looked like a short burst before dropping immediately after.

But since the New Year, the price run-up has continued, and momentum feels stronger than ever.  So, what’s driving it, and what really happens if it keeps going up? Can the same structures that have kept silver subdued for decades still function if the demand for the physical metal continues to accelerate? [Read More]

We are Entering Collapse Mode - A. Swedger


Ladies and gentleman, we are officially entering collapse mode in the United States. The systemic corruption we see within our government is collapsing confidence in the FBI, Donald Trump and the very government itself. And now the Dollar itself is collapsing when priced in physical precious metal. Platinum was up $192 per ounce today, while silver was up $7.50 per ounce to $79. This is it folks, this is the collapse of the purchasing power of the Dollar and it virtually guarantees that the majority of Americans will never again have the ability to hold real wealth in their hands.
