The Federal Reserve is reportedly considering revaluing its gold holdings from the arbitrary $42 an ounce to current market rates. This move could create trillions of dollars in assets to back the currency and significantly reduce the national deficit. Such a revaluation would align with long-standing goals of the Mises Institute and proponents of "hard money" like Ron Paul.

Professor Peter St. Onge of the Von Mises Institute explains how the transition to green technology is turning Western nations into economic colonies of China and the BRICS nations. China currently refines the vast majority of the world's lithium, cobalt, and copper, granting them a "natural resources veto" over the American economy. The push for environmental optics has resulted in the outsourcing of dirty mining and refining processes to hostile foreign powers.

The Mises Institute and The Federalist report that inflation is a result of currency devaluation and infrastructure shutdowns rather than the war in Russia. The Biden administration is accused of prioritizing "climate fantasies" over energy independence, leading to an estimated $5,200 increase in annual living costs for Americans. Additionally, French President Emmanuel Macron's opposition to self-defense is cited as evidence of a globalist war on human rights.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a 6.2% year-over-year increase in the Consumer Price Index for October, marking the highest rate since 1990. Simultaneously, the Producer Price Index for commodities surged 22.2%, reaching a 48-year high, while home prices approached a 42-year peak. These economic pressures have resulted in negative real weekly earnings for Americans struggling to afford basic necessities.
