Byron King—The Old Right, Rare Earths & Rising Inflation EP20 The Wiggin Sessions

    • Investing

As we get farther away from the ideals of the Old Right, the Progressives in power continue to pump money into the economy and destroy the value of the dollar. 
So, what can you do to navigate rising inflation? How might strategic investments in precious metals and rare earths protect your wealth in the age of Bidenomics?
Byron King is our in-house resource for military and geopolitical matters and the author of the online newsletter Whiskey & Gunpowder. He also happens to be a Harvard-trained geologist who’s gotten to know some of the best mining teams on the planet.
On this episode of The Wiggin Sessions, Byron joins me to discuss what happened to the Old Right and its idea of the ‘citizen representative,’ explaining how men like John T. Flynn, H. L. Mencken and Garet Garrett fought against the early decades of progressivism.
Byron walks us through the evolution of the international monetary system from the gold standard to the petrodollar, predicting how we might value currencies moving forward and describing how Bidenomics is causing our current workforce shortages and rising inflation.
