Is America’s affordability crisis real—or are we being gaslit into believing everything is fine? A new CNBC All-America Economic Survey shows high prices are now the number one reason Americans are spending less, echoing results from Fox, NYT, and other outlets. Yet political leaders and media cheerleaders insist the economy is “great” and concerns are overblown.
In this episode, Chris cuts through the spin and focuses on what actually hurts households: food, housing, insurance, utilities, and other bare necessities people can’t avoid. We break down why prices haven’t come down, why the claim that “deflation is always bad” is a myth, and how decades of reckless government spending, debt, and Federal Reserve money creation have steadily hollowed out the dollar.
From Biden to Trump, Bush to Obama, the trajectory hasn’t changed—debt has exploded, the dollar has lost over half its value in 30 years, and Americans are paying the price at the checkout counter. Featuring hard data, media accountability, and Ron Paul’s blunt diagnosis of the real cause behind the crisis, this is a no-nonsense look at why “more government money” won’t fix what government broke.
