Schiff w/ David Lin: Gold is the Canary in the Coal Mine

Schiff on Soar Financially: Rate Cuts Will Fuel Inflation

Last week, Peter joined the Soar Financially channel to lay out a clear warning: the Fed’s hoped-for rate cuts won’t rescue growth, they’ll stoke inflation and leave the economy worse off. He connects loose monetary policy to fiscal excess, presidential meddling, and a renewed flight into gold — a classic signal that sound money advocates […]

Inflation: The Hidden Embezzlement

Critics of inflationary policy are correct to describe inflation as a subtle tax, with the heaviest burden falling on the poor.
