Fed Hike of 50 Basis Points Is Too Little, Too Late For Unprecedented Government Spending

Former congressman Ron Paul available for TV Interviews

Intro: The Fed is attempting to fix an economy after demolishing it with one wrecking ball after another. They choked the supply chain, put a tourniquet on oil exploration and production, and now they think they’ll fix it with a band-aide of a 50 basis points hike? Won’t work. No way. No how. That’s according to our next guest, former Congressmen Ron Paul, who warned that reckless government spending would come home to roost, leaving us with unprecedented inflation and likely landing us back into a severe recession. Welcome, Dr. Ron Paul.

Talking Points: 

  1. Congressman Ron Paul, perhaps an “I told you so” would be in order. You were often the lone voice urging restraint, warning us not to take the road leading to our current destination. Now the Fed is doubling down with 50 basis points hikes instead of 25,  with the stated intent of making this the first in a long series of hikes. Tell us about your warnings that weren’t heeded and what we are realistically looking at in our economic future.
  1. Inflation is one of the most significant issues facing Americans today. For a while, we were able to cut back on luxury items. But with skyrocketing prices on our basic needs to survive, like food and shelter, we may soon be forced to but back on necessities. During the Trump Administration, gas was under $2. Today it’s more than double that and still rising. How did this happen?
  1. Something has to give. It is unsustainable for virtually everything to rise in price with wages not keeping up—especially for those on fixed incomes. Do you believe the government statistics on inflation are accurate? If not, what are the real inflation numbers? 
  1. Will 50 basis point hikes tame the inflation monster?
  1. Instead of cutting government spending, the Fed is raising interest. U.S. Debt is at an all-time high and rising abruptly. What will it take to get politicians to exercise the fiscal restraint you’ve been calling for?
  1. The dollar is weak and eroding more daily from inflation. Market yields are low. Interest rates paid on our money in the bank are virtually nonexistent. Is there anything we can do with our money that could be a better bet than the incredible shrinking US dollar? 
  1. You are a spokesperson for Birch Gold Group, a tangible assets company specializing in selling gold and silver coins. In your opinion, what is the outlook for gold, and is it possible we may soon see record-high gold prices?
  1. Where may we get more information on possible precious metals investments? Answer: At BirchGold.com
