"More Signs on a Dying Empire" by Jon Forrest

Jon Forrest Little: More Signs of a Dying Empire

Palisades Gold Radio:  9-1-2022

Tom welcomes back Jon Forrest Little, publisher of 'The Pickaxe' to the show. Jon discusses how the world is fracturing into two economic sides. There have been fifty-seven wars since World War II, and they have all largely been disasters.

The United States has spent trillions on these conflicts, and now the dollar itself is at risk. China and Russia are studying U.S. economic policy carefully. Every time the government bails out a particular sector or engages in additional conflict, the credibility of the dollar system wanes.

China is connecting seventy-five percent of the world's population, along with fifty percent of global GDP. The United States and IMF prefer to provide debt-trap financing to other nations instead of being a benefactor.

The U.S. is reliant on the petrodollar, but now, even the Saudi's have pivoted toward Russia. Nations are beginning to transact in gold and are bypassing any sanctions.

Western central banks never talk about gold, unlike those in the East. We will have a new Bretton Woods unless the West chooses to remain in denial.

Everything is going to come down to who controls and has access to energy. Russia is good at managing foreign relations, and many countries want to move away from Western systems.

U.S. foreign policy starts out diplomatic, but often escalates to forceful coercion. We see that now, domestically with, 87000 new tax collectors. The Fed is pretending to act tough on inflation, but it's all a cover to raise rates.

These creatures at the Fed are creating inflation and causing most of the problems via currency debasement. The climate emergency is another method for enforcing additional control on the population.

The Chinese lockdowns are due to energy issues. Governments want these authoritarian tools. They want the population always in a state of fight or flight. This way they can't think as they're too busy responding to fear.

We need an informed population, not one that is being spoon-fed. The current sound-bite daily debate is woefully lacking substance. Get yourself out of the system and find a community that you can build around. Find the sources that already question things and distrust the mainstream.

Those in power today aren't even bothering to hide the corruption anymore. This is normal for the endgame of empires.
