Crashes And Taxes Podcast

There are so many things happening on the financial front that are being obfuscated by mainstream Wall Street news. As more things become unsettled and untethered, we're going to see pivotal changes in the economy. And no one is talking about it… From the constant revisions of jobs numbers, to the market's optimism about rates going down, there's a concerted effort to represent the economic situation in a more positive light than it actually is. But the latest trends are giving us a much needed reality check and reminding us that the market isn't as great as the mainstream media is presenting it. Asset bubbles are going to burst, AI is going to further impact jobs, and we still have a massive currency shift ahead of us. Despite what Wall Street is telling you, I believe we're already in a recession, and after the election, we'll start to get the true economic data. In this episode, I give you a market update and share the biggest concerns in the economy right now.

The event that will finally prick and burst the global asset bubble can come from just about anywhere. The unwinding of Japan's precarious carry trade situation might just be the thing to push us over the edge. For decades, Japan's Central Bank has been funding itself by leveraging lower interest rates and paying money at short-term floating rates. The problem is, Japan has now been forced to raise some of their investments to a higher credit risk and a much higher probability of default. The fix could be more damaging than the original problem. We saw the market react to this and the jobs report in July. Wall Street wants you to think that the problem has already rectified itself but those were the rumblings of what's to come. Japan's carry trade situation is far from over, and it will impact the entire economy. Add to that, the US election, the threat of a massive internet disruption and a new pandemic, and you've got a recipe for major upheaval. Why is Japan's carry trade issue a huge warning sign to the whole world? Why should we brace ourselves for some volatility leading up to the US election? In this episode, I give a market update and share what to expect as we get closer to the 2024 Presidential election.

In 2020, The World Health Organization was able to augment its authority and encroach into the rights and medical autonomy of individuals. Now they have the ability (and permission) to dictate the health policy of whole nations. This is the beginning of global governance and the end of national sovereignty, and it will happen under the guise of a strengthening pandemic preparedness. At some point, it felt like WHO could be kept in check, but considering the recent changes, many countries are okay with this happening. Through the amendments to the International Health Regulations, WHO's ability to dictate medical protocols has never been more pronounced and that should concern us all. What does this mean for our medical autonomy? In this episode, I continue talking about the convergence of all things and today I share what's going on with The World Health Organization and why it's problematic.

The economic collapse of The West has been unfolding right in front of our eyes. Dollar hegemony is coming to an end. The various structures that underpin our financial systems are shaky, and we're teetering on the edge of a deep disruption. Look no further than the recent realignment of Saudi Arabia and other unprecedented shifts in the global economy. At the same time, we're seeing the rise of a new power - the BRICS block. This isn't just financial or even political, the major realignment we're seeing is potentially Biblical. Whatever you believe, you should be getting prepared for a reality unlike anything we've ever seen before. Why should we be paying attention to the moves being made by other nations? Why is The West so hell-bent on obfuscating what's really going on? In today's episode, I talk about the rise of a new global power, why it's just the beginning and the prophecies that predicted it all.

When it comes to voting in an election, most Americans believe that there's no way aliens could be legally entitled to a vote. You would be mistaken if you see what's happening right now. What if the federal government is actually creating the legal framework for them to vote through something as seemingly innocuous as government assistance? Is this administration secretly adding millions of voters before November? Is there another pandemic on the horizon? In this episode I talk about some concerning issues around the 2024 elections, and how they'll add to this being a rocky year.

Defer taxes in your highest earning years, pay them after retirement when you're making less and in a lower bracket. That's the conventional wisdom most Americans rely on and why most retirement savings are pre-tax. There's a glaring problem with this, though. In this episode, I share the reality of America's retirement and why we can't afford to rely on conventional wisdom anymore.

The US Dollar has been a currency untethered from reality, and we were able to get away with it….until now. As the world continues to move to the East and reject the dollar, we're headed for an abrupt and excruciating end, and it's coming a lot sooner than many believe. Just like a new bridge, a new currency system is being built right before our eyes. We'll keep believing nothing's happening until the very end of the dollar, only to be cut-off abruptly. The way we've been running things is mathematically unsustainable, and the music's going to stop suddenly. We've hyper-inflated our equity markets, created precarious asset bubbles, continued to spend recklessly and accumulate debt, and we're now trapped. Whatever The Fed does, our currency system and the domination of the dollar will collapse. No matter how good the stock market's doing, remember it can perform well while the underlying currency system is collapsing. Why have the BRICS nations been scrambling for metals? Can The Fed get us out of this situation or is it far too late? In this episode, I share the bad news no one wants to talk about: the rapidly approaching end of the US dollar and currency system as we know it.

If you've been paying attention, you'll notice that there's been a steady stream of articles, cautions and warnings about solar flares, communications disruptions, and tech interruptions. Now that we have a solar eclipse on April 8, those announcements have kicked into high gear. Even though it's going to be a sun blackout for only a few minutes, there's reason to be concerned about what could happen. When you pull together seemingly disconnected data points, you'll realize NASA has been trying to tell us that something drastic could happen, and we should be prepared. What have they been trying to tell us this whole time? Why should we be concerned about it? In this episode, I talk about why solar event disruptions are something we need to start taking more seriously.

America isn't just dealing with strong financial and economic headwinds, we also have pivotal legal issues on our hands. Between the Biden administration ruling on EVs, and Murthy vs. Missouri, the very sanctity of our constitution and Bill of Rights is under threat. Executive agencies can't have carte blanche over consumers, taxpayers and businesses. The government can't decide which opinions it agrees with and which ones to shadow ban. We also can't shift who the second amendment applies to because of the immigration crisis. Slowly but surely, we're nullifying our constitution by changing how we interpret the law. These legal cases prove that we have a huge problem which could truly destroy the fact that our country is for the people, by the people. The first amendment should never be hamstrung, and the more we allow that, the more we descend into lawlessness. In this episode, I talk about 2 important legal updates that we need to be paying attention to.

Lower interest rates are the economic "solution" many people have been hoping for, but it might actually trigger the very thing we're afraid of - total collapse. If you look closely at the state of banking, the last thing we need is an event that causes people to start pulling money out of banks. Banks are insolvent by design. Between the MASSIVE excessive deposits held, their shift from lending to buying short-term treasuries, and the economy's anemic growth since coronavirus, higher rates have held off the economic shift that is coming. However, once the Fed begins their rate cutting phase… we could engineer the very bank run that will undermine our solvency and trigger the end of the Fiat system. The unintentional consequences of lowering interest rates could include the toppling of our economy, so although we might want that as consumers, as Americans, we really don't.

When geopolitical and economic issues collide, it puts pain on the people, but plays perfectly into the hands of politicians. They will shelter themselves in a cloud of economic craziness and shift the story to war. That's what makes this period of history so concerning. As the unprecedented convergence of all things continues to build, this is the most dangerous time the world has seen in decades. War, currency changeovers, solar flares, EMP attacks, and a fast-spreading recession contagion will lead us to the point of meltdown. What are some of the potential crises we need to prepare for? In this episode, I share some hard truths about what happens in times of economic change, and why the world is currently ticking many worrying boxes.

The US economy has been long overdue for a correction. The fact that we escaped 2023 without one has many people believing it won't happen. If you understand economics and the danger of not letting the markets organically right themselves, you'll see why 2024 is the reckoning year. Ultimately, real economic policy will bear out. No matter how much the Fed works overtime to ensure we don't have a recession, it's coming. That's the problem with building your economic house on Modern Monetary Theory, eventually, the house of cards will implode on itself. Why have we avoided a recession up until now? Why will all our monetary mistakes come home to roost in 2024? In this episode, I give a broad overview of the economy right now - the banking crisis, the long overdue recession, and all the other economic tripwires that can take us down.

The government and Wall Street are desperately denying it, but we've come to a place where the economic indicators point to disruption, devastation and an unprecedented reckoning. The economic fundamentals can be hidden but not denied. From the yield curve to lending restrictions and consumer behavior, the pain that is to come will prove that this economy has been on a shaky foundation for a long time. This is happening to this country at our weakest point in history. The viability of American exceptionalism is in question, and that will have painful consequences. What's the one particular metric that should really worry us all? In this episode, I talk about why we won't escape the reckoning this year, and why America will suffer most.

With an eye-watering $8 trillion balance sheet, the Fed is in a precarious situation at the worst time. We have Geopolitical risks, a new (and worse) pandemic on the horizon, and no change in interest rates anytime soon. The government is truly handicapped to take any action if the economy corrects (and it will) and is doomed to continue walking on economic eggshells. In this state, we can't handle any massive events, but there are multiple global events that could send us over the edge at any moment. What does the ECB's stance on interest rates mean for the US? Can we survive a pandemic worse than coronavirus? In this week's podcast, we share what's happening on both the macro and micro level and why it puts the Fed in a delicate position.

When you look at the December 2023 jobs report, and see all the headlines, everything looks positive. It appears things are on an upward trend and we're headed for a soft landing. But if you drill deeper and peel back the layers of data manipulation, months of massaged information, and downward revisions, an entirely different picture comes into focus. This is yet another move to fool the masses and sway the market, and it's working. The truth is, along with everything else going on, the job market isn't as good as the report says. We can't even trust the economic data we're getting which puts us in a dangerous place. In this episode, I go through the jobs report and show you the truth they are desperately trying to hide behind the positive headlines.

Quantitative tightening, and exacerbated liquidity issues, companies feeling the squeeze of shipping disruptions and a higher cost of goods and the market pushing the central bank for six rate cuts… These are just a few issues and disruptions that continue to fly in the face of Wall Street's "soft landing" messaging. The market got way ahead of itself again, and over the next 6 weeks we'll see just how much pressure the financial system has been under. Right now, be skeptical of anyone saying everything's going to be great and really pay attention to the indicators. In today's episode - the first of 2024, we chart all the issues, disruptions and red flags in the economy. We also discuss why we can't expect a soft landing.

Propaganda, delusional optimism and Fed policy is not the reality when it comes to market fundamentals. Yet, that's what's driving our economy and this concept of a "goldilocks situation". It's nothing more than an attempt to lead us astray and destroy our wealth. No matter what anyone tries to convince you, we're not fine, we're not headed for a soft landing. We're definitely headed for a major financial disruption, and we won't escape 2024 without it. Many investors are rushing back into stocks, and it's entirely by design. It's a tactic to uphold the illusion of economic recovery. America has an addiction to cheap, big money. We constantly back ourselves into bad financial decisions and print money to get out of them. This always has repercussions and we can't put them off any longer. The way to win right now? Dig deeper than the mainstream, and seek the truth beyond the lies that are being sold to us. In this 100th episode special of Crashes & Taxes, we give you an overview of where things are, and why it's mission critical to go against the consensus right now.

We're on the precipice of massive global economic disruption that will hit the US the hardest. Yet there are no leaders guiding us through this massive transition. No one is preparing us for what's coming, no one is talking about solutions - they aren't even talking about it to make people aware. Why does this make an already bad situation catastrophic? What can we expect over the next few months as the transition we've been talking about begins?

There's a reason why our economic indicators are so confusing and contradictory and it's currency manipulation. Case in point: the Fed's BTFP initiative. It's a liquidity backstop to put funds in the hands of banks. The problem is: if we keep printing dollars at will, they just won't be worth anything. In this episode, I explain what BTFP is and what it means for our economy.

Never underestimate the media's ability to paint a pretty picture out of a bad situation, because reality is far from that. Unemployment numbers, consumer debt, manufacturing, services - all these are adding up to a massive economic disruption on the horizon.
