Move it to -2% by gradually bringing the price of gold down. Inflation is just deflation of the denominator.

I take that back. If our money was real, health insurance premiums would be less than 1/3rd of their 1999 cost: 1999: $6,000 β 21.51 oz
2002: $8,000 β 25.83 oz
2005: $11,000 β 24.73 oz
2008: $13,000 β 14.91 oz
2011: $15,000 β 9.54 oz
2014: $17,000 β 13.42 oz
2017: $19,000 β 15.11 oz
2020: $21,000 β 11.87 oz
2023: $24,000 β 12.35 oz
2026: $28,000 β approximately 6.20 oz
Again, the prices haven't gone up, the dollar has gone down. The dollar is fake money. It has no value. Paying someone in fake money is the same thing as slavery. Against gold, which is the only real money, these premiums have decreased in price by half

The average US family health insurance premium, per KFFβs annual survey:
1999: $6,000
2002: $8,000
2005: $11,000
2008: $13,000
2011: $15,000
2014: $17,000
2017: $19,000
2020: $21,000
2023: $24,000
2026: $28,000
Thatβs up 387% since 1999, about 6% a year.
Inflation over the same period: about 2.6% a year.
Our money is fake, utterly has no value except for us playing "make believe" that it does, and we wonder what's the cause of the "Affordability Crisis" and "K-Shaped" economy.

Only because I had just gotten out of a hot shower could I hit these notes tonight. π
Rodney Crowell wrote βAinβt Living Long Like This,β and Gary Stewart and Emmylou Harris both recorded it before Waylon did.
Then Waylon got hold of it and somehow made it sound like it had been written for him all along.
His version went to #1 in 1980.
Hereβs 60 seconds of cover from the desk.

Neil wrote βCinnamon Girl,β βDown by the River,β and βCowgirl in the Sandβ while home sick with a high fever in Topanga Canyon. Apparently fever was his co-writer that week. π

Dean Dillon + George Strait = Quantum.
Dean said βMarina Del Reyβ was inspired by a bartender he met at the yacht club bar there and had a brief fling with.
Later, when George asked if he had any songs, Dillon played it almost reluctantly β basically telling him, βI donβt think youβre gonna like this.β
George heard it, was astonished, and immediately wanted it for βStrait from the Heartβ. The single went on to become one of his early Top 10 country hits.
Pretty amazing what can come out of one brief encounter. Thereβs a great Dillon documentary on YT.
Hereβs 60 seconds of βMarina Del Rey.β

Merle wrote it after his longtime friend and bus driver Dean Holloway complained after a Los Angeles recording session that he was tired of the βdirty old city.β Merle asked where heβd rather be; Holloway said somewhere in the middle of Montana. Merle turned those remarks into the song and gave Holloway a co-writing credit. They then reportedly cut it in one take, with no rehearsal. And βBig Cityβ wasn't some deep cut either β it became Merle's 27th #1 country single in 1982. Hereβs 60 seconds of βBig City.β

It's not capitalism or a free market economy if the participants are forced to use fake money. That's not an economy. That's a ruse.

I just realized cap gains tax is not for revenue but to keep you from using gold or an equivalent as currency. Am I right @jimiuorio @brian_armstrong @wesbury (And so to keep paying workers with fake money which is the real reason for the "affordability crisis" )

Gold dollar /silver dollar /put your house on blockchain dollar doesn't really matter as long as money is "real" reflects real assets. If it doesn't then it's fake. It's only value is keeping you alive by telling a lie. Ancient Egypt still lives, even more so.

Gold dollar is the only answer. Gold has gone up 15x since 2000 but the reality is that gold has not changed it's value at all. The dollar, which has no value other than the only means to pay your taxes, has decreased because it's only paper with no backing in reality.
The cure for the "K-Shaped" economy and the "affordibility crisis" is to stop paying people with fake money. We need to End the Fed, Gold Dollar, and have a free market in interest rates. It's that simple. It's not free market capitalism if your using fake money.
