When is Debt Good?
While one of the main talking points of Schiffgold is the great damage of national debt, there does exist a positive place for debt in the world. National debt is a problem because it forces the people to bear a risk that they have no desire for or understanding of. The people’s lack of care […]

Warsh Vows a Leaner, “Strictly Independent” Fed as Gold Brushes $4,800
In his Senate confirmation hearing on April 21st, Federal Reserve Chairman–designate Kevin Warsh pledged nothing short of a philosophical reset at the world’s most influential central bank.
