FFR 36 - Getting Out of This Financial Mess

In our last podcast, we discussed the impending and ongoing financial crisis—the $6 trillion time bomb tick-tocking over our head. And, while we wish debt and the promise of crazy inflation was the only problem we face, it is unfortunately but one of the problems. The way Jason Hartman sees it, there are three big threats to our financial life and freedom to be wary of. The first is the financial services industry, which you may know as Wall Street. The second is the government, which has been hijacked via people like lobbyists and does little to stop the financial corruption on Wall Street, instead televising trials that do little more than offer a slap on the wrist. Finally, the Federal Reserve contributes to the financial problems of our country by continuing to print outrageous amounts of money. It sounds hopeless, but Jason Hartman has a few ideas that begin with focusing on what is happening in the real, actual economy. The real demands of 6.5 billion people living on this planet.
