Washington - We Have a Problem!

But the truth is that gold confiscation didn't go as well as the government hoped. In this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains the gold confiscation order, why the government wanted everybody's gold and why the confiscation scheme fell flat.

The Federal Reserve and the U.S. government have a big problem. The Fed is trying to take down sticky price inflation but it can never win the fight. As host Mike Maharrey explains in this episode of the Money Metals' Midweek Memo, the national debt is part of the problem, and until that is under control, inflation won't be. And here's a dirty little secret -- the central bankers at the Fed know this.

He identifies the real culprit and explains the root cause of the confusion.

This week, Money Metals’ Mike Maharrey talks to Peter Krauth, author of the book The Silver Bull, about a range of topics, including the slow death of the dollar, the future for silver and why he believes poor man’s gold is critical to our modern world. | Do you own precious metals you would rather not sell, but need access to cash?

Tax day was Monday. It was a painful day for some people, but for most, it was no big deal. After all, they got a nice refund. But as Money Metals' Midweek Memo host Mike Maharrey explains, whether they realize it or not, they're getting taxed to death too. In fact, everybody is thanks to the inflation tax.  In this episode, Mike also explains why last Friday's big selloff in silver may be good news for silver bulls.
