When we work and we get our money, and suddenly, a group of people come up to us and say…
“If you spend that money you earned today, we’re not going to do anything. But if you spend that money next month, we’ll fine you for 0.5% of that money. And if you keep waiting around and spend that money next year, we’ll fine you for 6% of that money.”
Sounds a lot like the mafia, doesn’t it?
That’s exactly what our governments are doing by continuously printing money and creating inflation!
They’re debasing our dollars, euros, yen, etc!
They’re ‘fining’ us for keeping the money we earned in our pockets!
