"It's Not Just About Finance"

Rising Inflation = More Violence in the Streets

Most people don’t want to hear this but in 2021, When the Great Reset and Food Shortages Hit Home, you should expect more violence in the street.

It’s not rocket science.

But prices around the world are climbing, and rising inflation is putting a brake on the global economic recovery.

Want proof?

Look at the record price increases in copper, houses, iron ore, and lumber (just to name a few).

As a result, inflation raises fears that everything you’re your savings accounts to the job market will suffer long-term damage.

Why?

As prices for goods rise, the price of services increases.

And the result is people who work in services have to pay more for everything they buy.

Again, that’s not rocket science.

But, to best understand this you should “Follow the Money” and especially the chain of money along the way.

According to the Wall Street Journal:

Manufacturers, reluctant to pass the full cost of inflation to their customers, are seeing their profit margins shrink, threatening their ability to hire back workers or to expand their businesses.

According to the World Food and Agriculture Organization:    Rising Food Prices in the month of May was the most in more than 10 years.

Translation: Rising commodity prices are an early indicator of surging prices throughout the economy.

But let’s give credit blame where credit blame is due…

For the most part, the sharp rise in prices now is being driven by governments in the developed world.

And it’s a direct result of flooding their economies with stimulus money at a time when a range of goods are in short supply.

The bottom line?

 

Why More Violence in the Streets?

In the past, food inflation has triggered popular uprisings in developing nations.

Why?

It’s where people tend to spend a greater portion of their incomes on food.

As rising prices drive more people into the streets – protesting declining living standards, inflation, government corruption, crime, and violence – governments will crack down, escalating tensions further.

All of this plays perfectly into our call of a “Commodity Super Cycle” that could last for 20 years.  (Read about it HERE)

So, instead of worrying about more violence in the street – caused by inflation – learn more about how to protect your purchasing power (HERE).

And stay away from the violence.

Remember, the 1% NEEDS the 99% to be wrong in order for them to make fortunes…at your expense.

Share this with a friend.  They’ll thank YOU later.
