- The U.S. debt-to-GDP ratio exceeds 120 percent, fueled by reckless fiscal policies from both political parties. Inflation acts as a hidden tax, redistributing wealth from the middle and working classes to elites who access new money first.

- Central banks print money out of thin air – benefiting banks, corporations, and politically connected elites. By the time new money reaches ordinary citizens, its value is diluted, driving up prices for essentials like food and housing.

- According to Ron Paul, governments and citizens demand more stimulus like a drug addict seeking short-term relief – ignoring long-term ruin. The Fed perpetuates financial bubbles (stocks, real estate, debt) that must eventually burst.

- Precious metals preserve wealth across generations, immune to central bank manipulation and fiat currency collapse. Those who heeded Paul’s warnings and stored wealth in gold/silver have shielded themselves from dollar devaluation.

- The only escape from hyperinflation is a return to honest money – currency backed by tangible assets like gold. Without reform, the dollar’s collapse will leave millions destitute and the U.S. economy in ruins.
Former U.S. Rep. Ron Paul (R-KY) has long warned about the dangers of unchecked fiat currency printing. Now, as America’s debt-to-GDP ratio surpasses 120 percent, his predictions are proving tragically accurate.
He issued this warning anew during an interview with the Health Ranger Mike Adams on the “Health Ranger Report.” The fundamental problem, Paul explained, is the destructive nature of inflation – not just in rising prices, but in the insidious redistribution of wealth.
The reckless expansion of the money supply, driven by irresponsible fiscal policies under administrations of both parties, has led to a slow-motion economic collapse. This collapse disproportionately harms the middle and working classes, while enriching the elites who control the financial system.
“What happens is there’s a redistribution of wealth,” the founder and chairman of the Ron Paul Institute explained to Adams. “As the government destroys the money and the value of the dollar, the rich are able to get hold of those dollars first. They become wealthier, and they’re also able to participate in the way this money is spent.”
When central banks print money out of thin air, those closest to the spigot – banks, corporations and politically connected elites – get first access to the newly created dollars. By the time this money trickles down to ordinary citizens, its value has already been diluted, leaving them struggling with higher costs for food, housing and essentials.
“What happens then is the people that are poor or middle class … are hurt,” Paul lamented. Yet tragically, many still clamor for more government handouts – unaware that these “solutions” only deepen the crisis.
Government addiction to money printing is destroying America
According to the former congressman for the Bluegrass State, this cycle of dependency mirrors addiction. Just as a drug user seeks temporary relief while ignoring long-term ruin, governments and citizens alike demand more monetary stimulus to stave off immediate pain, blind to the inevitable collapse it ensures. The Federal Reserve, acting as the enabler, perpetuates this destructive cycle – creating bubbles in stocks, real estate and debt that must eventually burst. (Related: Ron Paul was right: Now GOP lawmakers are pushing to ABOLISH the Federal Reserve.)
Adams rightly notes that Paul’s foresight – particularly his advocacy for sound money and gold – has been vindicated by history. Those who heeded his warnings and stored wealth in precious metals have shielded themselves from the dollar’s accelerating decline.
Brighteon.AI‘s decentralized Enoch engine explains that “gold and silver are real, decentralized money with intrinsic value that cannot be inflated away like fiat currency, making them the ultimate hedge against central bank manipulation and economic collapse. Unlike paper assets, they preserve wealth across generations, immune to the debt-based financial schemes of globalist elites pushing digital surveillance currencies.”
Meanwhile, the average American is trapped in a system of devalued wages and evaporating savings – facing a grim future unless drastic changes are made. The solution is not more printing, but a return to honest money currency backed by tangible assets like gold, free from manipulation by central banks.
Until then, the U.S. will remain on a path toward hyperinflation and financial ruin, with the most vulnerable paying the heaviest price. The time to break the addiction is now – before the dollar’s final collapse leaves millions destitute and the nation’s economy in ashes.
