"The Collapse of the Republic" Martin Armstrong
Martin Armstrong: The Collapse of the Republic
Palisades Gold Radio: 6-23-2022
Tom welcomes back to the show, Martin Armstrong. Martin discusses his economic confidence model and his study of historic economic patterns. Studying all the historic booms and busts, he developed a model around investor expectations.
Every inflation wave is different, and this one won't be fixed by raising rates. This one is based on shortages and not a speculative boom. They don't want to admit that the lockdowns started the collapse in the supply chain. There is no economic understanding with politicians as they all operate with blinders.
We're going to see more unrest in Third World countries due to energy costs. People will vote from their recent experience.
When Trump became elected, populism became the enemy. Politicians are threatened by nationalism. The truth is, most of them hate democracy. The heads of the E.U. are appointed and governments in that union are subservient. It doesn't really matter who gets elected. These people would love to impose a similar system here in North America.
The causes of hyperinflation are usually fairly complex. For Germany in 1922 they couldn't repay their reparations, so they confiscated 10 percent of everyone's assets for a bond. However, this action caused citizens to rapidly diversify out of the state currency.
Usually, hyperinflations are the result of a loss of confidence. He describes how the capture of a Roman emperor created a loss of confidence in the government and began the debasing of the currency.
He discusses his model and how it's indicating a shift in the types of government from Republics to more direct democracies around 2032. Republics represent their own self-interest, and that eventually is their downfall. He expects another collapse around 2032.

Xi Xinping Said America Is Finished. Congress, Take The Hint!
Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black / Sovereign Man) September 25, 2026
Chinese President Xi Jinping landed at Joint Base Andrews Wednesday for a three-day state visit, and Donald Trump was waiting for him at the foot of the red carpet. That’s highly unusual. US presidents typically receive foreign leaders at the White House.
In fact, with the exception of popes, no president had met a foreign leader on the tarmac since 1962, when JFK went out to greet British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan.
China Needs a Time Machine. America Just Needs a Pen
Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black / Sovereign Man) September 22, 2026
Song Jian was very good at math. He was one of China's top missile scientists, and his specialty was the equations that steer a rocket to its target.
In 1978 Song traveled to Helsinki for an engineering conference, where he came across researchers applying the same kind of math to human beings. Their idea was that a country's population could be steered toward a target number, just like a missile.
