NOTICE: New episodes have been published exclusively on the YouTube Channel. Stay tuned for further updates on when the show will again syndicate everywhere. Until then enjoy this special release. THE CRISIS OF CONFIDENCE This time last week the Yen was on a meltdown that many believed marked the end of the Japanese currency. However, it was able to step back from the ledge, perhaps with a little help from The Fed and the BOJ. Meanwhile, the internet was in frenzy after a clip went viral showing an economic advisor for the Biden Admin stumbling through an explanation of why the government is not able to simply print money … or can it? In our debt based financial system we are all playing musical chairs, until there is a crisis of confidence. This week Brent Johnson and Jon Kutsmeda discuss how much longer we can expect to hear the music, and who will get the last chair standing.
