go on believing that will never change this obesity epidemic that industry has been influencing very deeply the medical and scientific establishment. some of what's driving the obesity epidemic it's called for both of. a mass casualty this is the kaiser report the show that goes there. say hey we have been tracking inflation right for the past few months is looking worse and worse worse well. we have on our hands feeding the racket starving the
11:33 am
racket feeding the racket is essential banks feeding the grift of this whole global ponzi scheme fia ponzi scheme has been going on for 50 years now since 9071 and a big coin is starving the racket we're going to start off with this story out of korea this is next on which is a $30000000000.00 gaming company and nick carter tweets a link to their statement on why they bought $1717.00 because m one posting isn't just for coiners and gold bugs $30000000000.00 korean kugel aamer do it too and with government spending and debt levels so high even a small rise in interest rates would make paying down the debt even more difficult than it already is so central banks have been increasingly monetizing the debt printing money to loan to the government in the form of buying government bonds at low interest rates since january 2020 the u.s. has printed 40 percent more u.s. dollars than previously existed we are not privy to conversations at central banks or departments the treasury but we foresee no end to this in the near term and then
11:34 am
they go on to say while we can't predict what interest rates will do we can see that the inflation is going to eat away our treasury writes us one $100000000.00 at the bottom because you know this is the echo of the 1971 day when gold window was closed by richard nixon we went on or off the standard and within a few decades as nomi prins writes about her book collusion all global central banks were colluding on this money print things game that would devalue everyone's currency their purchasing power and then starting with michael saylor of micro strategy here in the united states. his company and now there are almost 40 companies and now companies and asia are launching what you would call speculative attack they're calling the central planners and the central bankers bluff they're saying ha ha we see you here printing trillions and we're going to buy pickling
11:35 am
with that and we're going to defund you similar to what soros did in 1903 to the bank of england but this is done now on a global scale a multi 100 trillion dollar scale and that's why big claim price is going no 50607000 well many have said that we're in a similar situation to the great depression in the great depression of course also saw geo political game theory happening in beggar thy neighbor i think it was the u.k. who actually pulled themselves off the gold standard 1st then are revalued gold in order to diminish their own debts and try to fight the deflation so you're seeing the same thing on the other side here as rapid money printing just excel rates and in an all female world it's difficult to protect yourself as a as a company with hundreds of millions sometimes billions of dollars on your balance sheet so how do you protect yourself we saw with tesla's earnings report just in the past week we saw that obviously they made a lot of money it was
11:36 am
a good decision that they made to convert some of their you know it was like $1700000000.00 worth of their balance sheet that they converted to bitcoin and that has helped keep their earnings up but their interest i think so he said next on and korea mentions that they're not privy to how central banks and treasuries plan on what they're doing with this money printing or whether or not it will ever end they predict a while and but there was a member of parliament in canada who released a video of him questioning the central bank head of you know the central bank of canada and he notes that the trudeau government is borrowing 3000000000. dollars a week you'll never guess how much the central bank is printing per week so he asked the central banker how much quantitative easing they were currently engaged in and the guy made it to $3000000000.00 a week and this canadian member of parliament was like how convenient because we're also borrowing 3 value no week right so again this is confirming on
11:37 am
a global basis from different governments and different politicians are waking up to the fact that the central banks are printing with the stated goal of helping the unemployed and to stimulate the economy. and as politicians and corporate c.e.o.'s are pointing out that stated goal is increasing unemployment and increasing the loss of purchasing power and increasing the plight of poor the poor but it does help those who are asset holders they are becoming fabulously rich so the split between rich and poor is growing spectacularly and in that video it's amazing because the politician points out the obvious failure by the central bank of canada to make any sense he says that they have a 2 percent inflation target in the video on the politician says you've already blown past 2 percent and you're causing real painful inflation everywhere and the
11:38 am
central banker simply keeps repeating like a monkey on drugs you know the same talking points right they they have no cognitive ability to understand their program to do this they they might as well just have a rhesus monkey with i think a rhesus monkey would do better than these these these bots these genes in bought well certainly as you mentioned asset prices are indeed going up creating the accounts hellion are classed in canada it's quite extraordinary we've reported that us house prices have been up 16 percent in the past year thanks to all the money printing in canada. it's a 32 percent so the average price increase in some provinces are $100000.00 over the year the median price so you are choosing and a group of winners that are in the lucky house club you know they get they happened to be old on off when prices were not this high before all the money printing began
11:39 am
and so they own the assets and they you know it consolidates their the wealth and income gap that the wealth gap and most importantly in this article that edward harrison for example links to the housing boom is ripping apart the financial fabric of canadian life young adults increasingly feel shut out of home ownership in big cities even as their parents can't stop talking about how much money they've made as owners so you have that intergenerational gap that we've warned about for over 10 years now here on kaiser report but the problem especially is that there are some really big winners like anybody the boomers who own property in toronto or outside of vancouver any of these big cities they're able to extract they take that he locks you know the home equity loan. out of their property take some equity out and give it to their children to get on this property that are that's going up by 30 percent a year so that you're gifting them $100000.00 a year income in money printing nepotism plus despotism is all we've got going on
11:40 am
around the world and all these different it's so obvious now to everybody including the rank and file fall fashion that the money printing causes the poverty increases the wealth and income and and increases the unemployment and the social misery that comes with it so what we've been saying now for a least 5 years you know pointing out we've had bankers and academics and students and we've been talking about this for 5 years and 5 years ago was considered to be a syria or a heterodox theory now it's become an accepted wisdom. the fact you know that's what investigative journalists do you don't even need to be an investigative journalism journalist to find this out we're going to look at this tweet from ben ask ron who is an m.m.a. fighter boxer had has had his head punched in a few times and even he even though he's been punched around quite
11:41 am
a few times and live she tweets curious if this will be reflected in the c.p.i. they want you to think that inflation doesn't exist rolling eyes rolling eyes rolling eyes a moshi big quine and that is would cost to build a deck so they look at the average lumber prices using 2400 board feet which is 200 square feet april $22936.00 to build a deck now cost you $3696.00 which is what i guess us fourfold if i could do some math here right well here's the thing the last 20 years china has was operating as a wage sink right all the wages jobs went to china and their cost of labor was $1.00 fraction of what it was in the in north america but now that that's caught up you've got wage parity between china and the u.s. so you don't have that wage sink anymore so now the cost for stuff the average person down there at the box store and energy and food is up sharply and bored to
11:42 am
build houses it's simply now going to spill over the dike that's been put in place to try to hide the fact that they were doing a policy of money printing to help our friends on park avenue that has gone on for 20 years while they outsource the job to china now we've got wage parity so that wage saying that wasn't the ability to understate inflation for years is done and now the numbers that are going to come in are going to show real quarter to quarter c.p.i. sure in a way inflation and all the policy makers are going to a run you won't find him there. won't be dead they're simply going to run away be they're going to blame some magical existential threat that they'll pull out of their hollywood had and do little films about but we know that this was completely and entirely avoidable as we've been saying for 5 years now you know that there's
11:43 am
always those economists are c.e.o.'s or business people that once they retire then they admit like oh my god it's all a fraud they never do it while they're collecting their huge salaries that people in the health insurance racket so here we have and you and i have been questioning whether you know this is the 50th birthday of an all feet out world will be in august of 2021 we went off the gold standard in august of 1971 so this feels like what we're seeing from the stimulus programs with huge amounts of fiscal stimulus over the past year this is extraordinary over the past 20 years we've had massive amounts of central bank loose policies giving credit to the elites of wall street but now it's like. it seems like as it's crumbling globally indeed globalization is setting in that you get biden set to unveil $1.00 trillion dollars spent and american social safety net so there seems to be you know ok it's all over
11:44 am
hey in the last few moments of this ponzi scheme well he's only these crumbs so i mean there are some good policies like they're you know they're giving a lot for child care but on the other hand aslan's like spewing money for university students which will support the obviously racket of the holy education system here which is overpriced and all these administrators so basically they're like very highly paid government sector workers at these universities just nailed. times square 3 card monte trick ok after the 3 card monte guy rips the tourist off for all the money they have they let them win the last $20.00 hands before they wore away big losers and in the mind of the punter he's like aha i want to show here's joe biden is clinton biden neoliberalism ravaging trillions from the middle class creating
11:45 am
a huge number of the new before and on their way out there saying here catch this tickle between your teeth and you can keep it thanks joe swell guy very swell indeed oh yeah he's well he's fallen for sure hey we can swell or inflate this segment we've got to take a break when we come back more on the show don't go away. so it's seemed wrong. but old rules just don't hold. any good news yet to see. these they become active. and engaged with equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.
11:46 am
welcome back to the kaiser report imax keyser time now to turn to james turk of gall money dot com full disclosure i am an investor james tarak welcome back thanks max size great do is you all right we're going to pick your brain on some big issues here are stock prices are at all time highs property prices are rocketing by double digit percentage points commodities are on a tear why are we getting so much monetary and fiscal stimulus if i looks like we are in boom times i don't get it playing too much money printing by central banks around the world basing currency and as
11:47 am
a consequence what you're seeing is the early stages of a flight out of the currency into real things so the policymakers tell us something different right they say well what are 6 the what do they tell us exactly how do they how do they get away with us they tell us what they will lend us to hear it unnecessarily tell us the whole story and all of this money printing that's going on means that there's a lot of inflation in the land and we're starting to see that you know lumber prices food prices everything pretty much across the board you know people are looking for alternatives to national currencies and that's why the stock market's going up as well max that it's better to own stocks than to own something dollar denominated because the lease at the end of the year. that the stock well have tangible assets the value of which will go up and dollars for a few dollars a deposit in the bank you don't earn enough interest income to us at the loss of purchasing power because inflation so put your money into things dollars are nominated assets they hear the words why margera money now almost every day i see
11:48 am
somebody talking about it michael burry of course wrote the big short hours he participated in the big short on wall street they made a movie about it he was writing about this comparing the current situation to why mark germany and then he. disappeared from twitter the 9 years of boom time inflation that ended in hyper inflation is what happened there and all the time why marjah money the central bank was saying that the month the inflation was transit sorry that the money printing had nothing to do with they stock prices skyrocketing to new highs is the comparison to why marjorie what is a pretty pretty dramatic comparison as it warrants and i think it is warranted max and you know i think we're on the same path because what's happening is why more germany was spending money the government was spending money they were turning to the central bank the right spike in order to print the currency and that's what
11:49 am
they did and it's the same thing is happening now in the united states but there's a fundamental difference the economy in weimer germany was a cash currency economy another words at the end of the month companies used to pay their employees with pay packet with rice mark bank notes stuff didn't nobody have a checking account back then the deposit currency you money on deposit in the bank the system was mainly in the businesses and individuals in the united states today we have a very different type of kurt curse the system most transactions are done with deposit currency is a very sophisticated banking system so you're not going to see piles of notes like occurred in. germany or zimbabwe you're going to see an inflation like occurred in argentina or brazil where they had very sophisticated backings banking systems and everyone had bank accounts instead of printing paper the central bank does bookkeeping and as zeros to the government's checking account which the government
11:50 am
then spends so it's it's hyperinflation were on the road type of inflation is a question of whether they get off of it before the currency is destroyed or whether we go over the cliff south of the federal reserve and the government says that they've got a 2 percent target on inflation but they also admit that i'm. we broke through 2 percent where they're having sex for a percent shadowstats that's a farce tracks the real inflation if you were to unwind all they had donica just nonsense the testicle mirages that are put in there to hide it tells us that inflation is really over 10 percent 12 percent now in fact and we see commodities as you point out lumber doubling and tripling in price copper new all time high fall for new all highs and yet the language that comes out of the central planners is they say quote we are fighting deflation how do they how does that how do they even misuse that word to that degree tends to listen to what they say watch
11:51 am
what they're doing i think that's the key you know they talk about things being tresses very well the 1970 s. were chance of tory but yet inflation for 10 or over actually 15 years that was just a meeting. it's the same thing is happening now but we're just at the beginning of this max that's the scary thing and the federal reserve yesterday said they're going to continue printing $110000000000.00 a month of new currencies being created every month by the federal reserve so looking at some of these corporations what's going on on the corporate level micro chip shortages are hitting production of all sorts of goods from on will be also smartphones i saw that for just reported numbers for the quarter they said they're going to reduce the fasti by 50 percent because of a smart chip. reduction we're seeing shipping shortages develop as stimulus checks to america and pour into china for manufactured goods from china where we see widespread supply shortages in 2021 so
11:52 am
it's not an ancillary impact of this money printing seems to be a supply shortage is this. going to also develop or we're going to see some rationing of goods and things like that sands well let's hope they don't ration in goods because. rice fixing in rationing and that is a step backwards and it's going to kill the economy even worse than basing the currency the shortage has come from the problem that you need a sound money in order to form economic calculation properly so when a company plans for something they need to have a sound. monetary unit in order to do their investment planning you can't do that easily place their economy and you know the way to to to do that is to hire an accountant who lived through the argentinean hyperinflation well understand how the problems that arise when you're actually inflationary environment another
11:53 am
element of course max is that a lot of people would rather support things or hold things rather than sell them food prices because they know that to read replicate them at a future date is going to cost a lot more so it's a sherry economy you do see a lot of shortages occurring it's not that the stuff doesn't exist it's just that people rather hold onto it because at least they have something of value rather than a depreciating currency right you mentioned sound money and as far as they've been talking now for over 15 years they've been i think james to hooked on a socket and james tarakan thall is talking about sound money and all this farce has been sound money for a long long time and it's a sameness that what a lot of people miss is that when you are navigating the territory of an economy you need to have at least one fixed point you know if you're sailing on the ocean you need a north star when you're building a house you need a 12 and foot standard measurement. to fill your house
11:54 am
here in this economy and the global economy as i think everyone there says that's not gold backed we have a sign fillet and ideology based currency and then an ideology based definition of what constitutes g.d.p. i guess ideology and ideology out. and it's become a ludicrously a random basis when i hear of a day powell all these people talk now it's like word salad is coming out of their mouth grounded and yes i can eat cummings poem or something that makes no frickin sense james now you're exactly right and you know it's very it's a very keen point that you bring up about having a unit. in money the unit is called a numerary for example during the british empire the newer air was the british sovereign gold coin which weighed point 2435 ounces of gold it doesn't say under british sovereign debt it's one pound because everybody knew that a british sovereign was one pound as the same thing originally with the framers of
11:55 am
the cast to sion when they created in the mint act of 1792 the eagle and the double eagle everybody knew it an eagle was that everybody knew it a double eagle as it was it was the new where we don't have a numerary anymore max and that's the problem that applies i mean not to some people would equate this with a certain conservatism and thought because they like to go on these wild stanch and some bad how we could all live on a beautiful island paradise called shangri-la are all people are self actuating in real time and. but that the result now is that nobody's getting civil rights nobody is getting human rights nobody's participating in representational government anymore it's completely in complete malevolent anarchy in the u.k. in the us and around the world there's
11:56 am
a total societal breakdown james for this very reason am i exaggerating that exaggerated because when the currency is no good the only way you can force that currency into circulation is through laws penalties and in force mint and regimentation and that's what we're seeing we're losing our freedoms we're losing our liberties in order to make this bad currency circulate you know again we're going further and further down this road we're going to end up like venezuela if we don't get off this road so you've hit the nail on the head there because the money so bad. to get people to use it is this through coercion and effectively state violence and yes we're seeing in the united states now as more and more incursion by the state and with a very violent extremist autocratic edge to accept the problem is they're trying to people to accept complete garbage as a numerary as a unit of account as something worth working for and predictably the results are
11:57 am
becoming untenable if not downright insurrectionists now let's talk about the broader economy a little bit. at the end of the 1st quarter the bank of america argue that the 40 year bond bull market was over that it's even possible when the central bank has so they said the bond bull markets over you know people have been saying this for least 15 years you know that it's been the widowmaker people say all the bond markets finished but at some point. if in fact us currency is as garbage as as are saying the bond market well in fact the but the bull market will in fact. and that would that would be the end of a lot of assumptions in terms of how the economy works but are you willing to delve into the deep end to make a call here about the plan markets and i think the bull market in the bond. bonds has already ended the other reason why it's continued to go on longer than would
11:58 am
normally be the case is we don't have a free market anymore you know financial repression is the policy of central banks around the world and they're buying all of these bonds. to keep interest rates. and. if it wasn't for such a bad thing all of these bonds interest rates and bonds would be much much higher we saw a little last year you know the bond vigilantes of the 1970 s. some people said are quiet now well these rather quiet is because they're being overrun by central banks so i think you know getting back to what we were talking about in currency and avoiding things that are dollars are nominated avoid dollar denominated bonds avoid dollar denominated bank deposits the avoid anything dollars are nominated tangibles or near tangibles like stocks of companies that 110th of wells i think that's the only safe s. are going forward from here in til we turn around and get off this road toward
11:59 am
hyperinflation all right james are going to have to have a 2nd segment this is just to get thanks to ban on kaiser apart thanks max and that's the idea for this edition of kaiser report with me max kaiser and stacy herbert want to thank our guests james turk of called money dot com until next time .
12:00 pm
the headlines in r.t. this cheese the evening half a year of isolation he was seeking to open its doors to tourists but only for those who are saved jobs approved by brussels also to the us government marks will press freedom day by focusing on the rights of journalists in other countries we look at america's own record on media freedoms and finds all imprisonment a way to straighten citizens returning home from its india we hear from some who feel they have been abandoned by their government. or extremely disappointed. someone is losing a family member. so i think extra. people.
