Economic oppression is what I can best describe it.
Since currencies were unpegged from the Bretton Woods agreement gold standard in 1971, the value of fiat cash has been steadily gone down hill. But the story really begins with the day the US Federal Reserve was instituted by a cadre of leading bankers back in 1912ish. A system designed to funnel wealth from the working people into the pockets of the rich elite.
Fiat currency is never meant to be a store of wealth, as long as our authorities can keep printing more out of thin air, the wealthy who own hard assets get wealthier as our cash savings is inflated away.
I've been putting my long term cash savings into gold and silver over the last 12 years having foreseen these troubling times coming.
That's a good insight and vision you had then and still have now, thinking long term is underated, I love that you took action when it mattered.
