What Can You Do to Support Sound Money?

We'd be better off with sound money. But how do we get there? It's a political question, and unless they are well-funded, most people feel pretty powerless when it comes to making change through the political process.  Maybe that's because we need a better approach. In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek memo, host Mike Maharrey presents an alternative - a bottom-up approach that avoids Washington D.C. He presents this strategy in the context of policy to promote sound money. Mike also discusses the recent Fed meeting.

Between a Rock and a Hard Place

The Federal Reserve is between a rock and a hard place. It needs to cut interest rates because this debt-riddled economy can’t function in a high-rate environment. But it can’t plausibly cut rates with price inflation still far above its target. As Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of Money Metals’ Midweek Memo, the Fed is damned if it does and damned if it doesn’t.
