When we were a founding nation and got our independence in 1776, we won our independence in the world. And we had Gold and Silver as money. Zero inflation. But by 1907 the global bankers (no allegiance to any country) started meetings to get us to form a central bank, which the founding fathers abhorred.
By 1913 they got it pushed thru Congress, the camel got its nose under the tent, with the new world order of the Fed Res Act. Just so the USA could finance wars so the bankers could make money from interest rate loans.
Bottom line. Over time they gradually weaned Gold and Silver money out of our system, over more time people realized the fake money would lose value over time. US Dollars became a Time Wasting Asset.
So people for their savings turned their money into Stocks Bonds and Real Estate. With everything in reverse, Stocks Bonds and Real estate will go down, and Gold probably along with Silver, will go up in value. This deflationary trend has already started with less gold (real money) required to buy houses and so many other things.
If stocks bonds and real estate drop, it would be huge drop in money supply. Things get cheaper. The last time TPTB decided to kill the money supply was in 1982 with a 21% prime interest rate. They wiped out millions of inflation invested people, stocks bonds and real estate went NOWHERE from 1968 to 1982. After which they started dropping rates. And started a new game that lasted until 9/11/01 which ended the game.
Bonds have been dropping, with interest rates rising since 2020.
