Global Currencies Madness:
When central banks and politicians “manage” global currencies, we can expect:
It has happened before and it will happen again…
Last Century Madness:
Current Monetary Madness:
Japan has created a national debt that exceeds 1,000 Trillion yen, about 250% of their GDP. According to the IMF, Japan’s debt is “unsustainable.”
The US national debt (official only) currently exceeds $19 Trillion, up from $398 Billion in 1971, $5.6 Trillion in 2000, and $10.1 Trillion in October 2008. National debt has increased at a compounded (exponential) annual rate of about 9% per year since 1971.
Does anyone expect the debt will be repaid, reduced, or even stabilized? I think it is clear that the debt will be rolled over and increased until it must be inflated away or defaulted. This is political and central bank supported monetary madness. Exponential increases inevitably end badly.

Central Bank Monetary Madness:
Exponential debt increases appear normal in a central bank controlled financial world that benefits the political and financial elite at the expense of the middle and lower classes. QE, ZIRP, and NIRP (negative interest rates) are recent examples of central bank responses to their self-created problems of debt based fiat currencies, exponential increases in debt, and uncontrolled deficit spending by governments. Fiscal and monetary madness prevails!
