Business as usual” will simply not cut it anymore. The “print and spend” policies of the past, the QE lifelines, the liquidity injections, the zero and negative interest rates, the blatant debasement of the currency, the market manipulation and all the direct and indirect bailouts will not work as they did before. 

And it’s not only because the central bankers have overused these “weapons” and have by now exhausted all their options – this is a widely recognized problem that has been pointed out by hordes of economists and countless sensible investors for years already and still remained unaddressed. It is plain as day to any thinking person by now that creating money out of thin air in order to prop up a failing economy

There is no question that gold owners have been finally and spectacularly vindicated over the last months: the “barbarous relic”, the “worthless shiny rock”, as many have called the yellow metal, once again proved its value as a true safe haven. In the face of inflation, intense geopolitical turmoil and widespread uncertainty, investors fled to safety “en masse”, as they consistently, repeatedly and predictably have done for decades (if not centuries), inevitably pushing the gold price to unprecedented heights.

Apart from the significant financial gains that gold investors have seen, true gold bugs also finally reaped the indisputable satisfaction of being proven right and being rewarded for their patience and the strength of their conviction. Those

Over the last years, we have encountered an abundance of alarmist and hysterical “warnings” and admonitions, foretelling the impending doom of the world as we know it. Market corrections have served as an excuse for scaremongers to cultivate panic over a total systemic collapse. Surprising political shifts, like unexpected electoral results, have been coopted to support extreme scenarios, predicting the fall of the current world order. Especially in turbulent times like the ones we are currently living in, anything and everything can be presented as an existential threat by those who wish to exploit and to profit from the base instincts and the beastly fears of the general public.

As individual citizens, as voters and taxpayers we have been so deeply, so consistently, so relentlessly indoctrinated, so blindly radicalized, and so thoroughly and easily subjugated and ideologically manipulated that, by now, it has become terribly challenging for any of us to even entertain any viewpoint or any opinion that is opposed to our own.  It is next to impossible for a single individual to find the strength of character or the moral fortitude to raise doubts, questions or objections against the prevalent dogmatic proclamations (arguments built upon the idea that any statement can be true and valid as long as a figure of authority declares it so – even if common sense or public opinion opposes it). It is nearly inconceivable for an ordinary person to defy

Vortrag mit Apéro am 10. Oktober um 1930 Uhr im MythenForum, Schwyz

Die Verwirrung ist gross, was bringt die Zukunft?

Der Versuch einer Einordnung aus Sicht eines freien und eigenständig denkenden Schweizers.

In Zeiten von „politischer Korrektheit“ ist es wichtig „politisch inkorrekte“ Fragen zu stellen und damit dem „staatlich gelenktem Denken“ entgegenzuwirken. Dieser Vortrag ist mein Versuch Geschichte, Geldwesen, Politik, Finanz und Philosophie so zu ordnen und zu verknüpfen, damit sie einen Sinn im Gesamtkontext ergeben. Dabei stehts im Wissen die Wahrheit niemals zu 100% zu besitzen; mit Demut danach zu streben ist das Ziel. Das Ziel des Abends, so hoffe ich, führt beim Einen oder Anderen zu einem Denkanstoss. Ich bin ein Botschafter des Ludwig von Mises

It’s been a fantastic year for physical precious metals owners and by many accounts, the best is yet to come. All the issues we’ve been warning against for years, including inflation, currency debasement and government suppression of individual financial liberty have started boiling over in a way that is so obvious, that even the most naive citizen can clearly comprehend. 

Despite the efforts by politicians and institutional leaders to convince the taxpayers not to trust the evidence of their own eyes and to persuade them that everything is fine and the economy is as robust as ever, the cracks in the machine are now plain for all to see. 

Consumer prices continue to be on the rise, especially in the real economy (as opposed to the heavily biased government data).

An attempt at an analysis from the perspective of a free Swiss individual

What you’re about to read is the abridged and condensed English translation of a speech I gave in Munich in November 2023. You can find the full speech, in German with English subtitles, here.

It tackles the very difficult, but also very crucial, subject of individual freedom, or what is left of it these days, and it seeks to offer a constructive analysis from a Swiss perspective. 

It is also focused on identifying the roots of the problems and challenges that liberty-minded individuals face today, and most importantly, it seeks to provide practical solutions to them and perhaps, hopefully shine a light on a way out and a way forward.

Article II of II, by Claudio Grass

Collectivism is extremely versatile and very easy for political animals to “sell” to the public and to weaponize. Politics, of course, by its nature is always the pursuit of the Left, if we are to follow strict definitions. It seeks to influence and coerce others and it abhors individual liberties and self-determination. What we know as far-right is national socialism and the rest is international socialism. Either way, it is all collectivism in different shapes and forms. 

Sometimes it takes advantage of the fears and the (often legitimate) grievances of all those hard working citizens that feel betrayed and left behind. It promises them protection, retribution and special privileges in the future – they can have all that and

The post-covid years have brought about an unquestionable acceleration and intensification in the attacks against the Western value system, against basic Enlightenment ideas and principles and against the pillars of the very civilization that gave us all the liberties, the rule of law and the justice system that we enjoy today (or used to enjoy until fairly recently at least).

All-important and self-evident ideas like the concept of meritocracy, individual liberty, freedom of speech and free competition have all been painted as selfish, as misanthropic and shameful by those who wish to destroy the Western way of life. The enemies of Reason have long been trying to replace these values with all kinds of twisted notions, under the guise of “social justice”.

For the longest time, according to conventional and widely embraced wisdom, all responsible and prudent members of society had to have a savings account. All those hardworking taxpayers and all those forward-thinking and sensible individuals that understand the importance of planning ahead, of being prepared for whatever the future holds and of securing a better life for their children, have traditionally been expected to put whatever they could afford aside from their paycheck every month, and to deposit it in that “untouchable” account.

When it comes to the State, however, and all its ministries, branches and institutions, a very different set of rules seems to apply – a much more lenient, flexible and liberal one.

For example, the core pledge of security, protection and stability has yet to be fulfilled: no government has ever delivered on any of these promises socially, economically, geopolitically, or monetarily for any meaningful period of time. No matter how consistently and how faithfully the people keep their end of the deal, those in power always seem to have a ready excuse as to why they failed to honor their own and a confident assurance that they definitely, absolutely and unquestionably will, if you reelect them of

People invest in gold for many different reasons. Many do so out of concern over economic, monetary or political uncertainty. Others seek a hedge against inflation, a way to protect and preserve the real purchasing power of their savings. There are also those who simply seek some peace of mind, a dependable insurance, so that no matter what the future holds and no matter how bad the “worst case scenario” turns out to be, they would still have a solid “Plan B”.

All these are valid, sound and sensible reasons to invest in gold; at least for long-term investors, for those who truly understand the true value and the core purpose of physical precious metals. 

Yet ultimately, all these concerns share a common denominator.

The New Year is usually associated with a new beginning, a fresh start, or a “clean slate”. Unfortunately, for millions of Americans, these are wishes that are bound to remain unfulfilled – for them, the New Year has nothing “new” to offer at all: it will only perpetuate all the same burdens, obligations and worries of the past year and of the ones that came before.

One physical, practical manifestation of this (though it is certainly not a unique, or even a rare, example) is the fact that at the start of 2024, U.S. household debt reached a record high of $17.3 trillion, according to data from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

Across the European landscape, a disquiet rumbles beneath the surface of rolling hills and fertile plains. It emanates from the very backbone of the continent – its farmers. From the tractor rallies of France and Germany to the demonstrations in Poland and the Netherlands, a wave of agrarian protests has erupted, driven by a potent cocktail of frustration, betrayal, and a yearning for stability.

Over the past few years, farmers in Western Europe have increasingly vehemently opposed policies designed to protect the environment, arguing that such measures incur excessive costs. Environmental regulations, lauded as “Farm to Fork” by the EU, are perceived by many as constricting livelihoods and punishing hardworking farmers and producers. Quotas, restrictions, and a
