Economic Ponzi Scheme, 1857 Depression Comparison
The current U.S. economy is characterized as a "Ponzi scheme" propped up by cheap money and market manipulation. A historical comparison is drawn to the depression of 1857, which followed the influx of wealth from the 1849 Gold Rush, suggesting that a major market reset may be imminent.
Gold Price Drop, US Dollar Backing and Canadian Analysis
A significant drop in the price of gold is analyzed. While some attribute it to margin calls, a Canadian CTV report is mocked for claiming investors are fleeing to the U.S. dollar because it is "backed by the Federal Reserve," while gold is "backed by nothing."
