We also know how bad mainstream media is these days in every country. Governments have been threatening and controlling the press for quite some time. Just recently, Russia simply shut down TV stations telling the truth about the Ukraine hiding the level of sheer decadence and corruption that is all over the internet these days […]

There has been the typical strategy to label anything that questions government’s ethics as the “conspiracy theory” so that it may still exist in plain sight. In most cases, there is a tool to further that goal of disinformation to allow corruption to exist in plain sight, yet denied. They use people who spin whatever real […]

QUESTION: Hi Mr. Armstrong: I have 2 questions. I’m 31, and like most graduates of graduate schools, I have student loans. 1) What will happen to our generation who seem to be getting more and more stuck in student loan debt, which is backed by the federal government?  Will the government forgive it?  Or will […]

If a large Company like Google was going bankrupt due to enormous debt does the public actually believe the shares would hyper-inflate LOL! Do you […]

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; I have investigated your explanation of hyperinflation and can see that you are correct in that this is limited to third world and revolutionary governments.
