We’ve never had a year like that in all of US history. What we are doing is literally insane, but most Americans aren’t even aware of what is happening because the mainstream media isn’t talking about it. If you are not familiar with “M1”, here is a definition that comes from Investopedia…

M1 is the money supply that is composed of physical currency and coin, demand deposits, travelers’ checks, other checkable deposits, and negotiable order of withdrawal (NOW) accounts. M1 includes the most liquid portions of the money supply because it contains currency and assets that either are or can be quickly converted to cash. However, “near money” and “near, near money,” which fall under M2 and M3, cannot be converted to currency as quickly.

When new money enters the system, every dollar that you are currently holding becomes less valuable. And if your paycheck does not rise at the same rate that the money supply is rising, that means that your paycheck becomes less valuable as well. It is helpful to think of our money system as a pie. When more dollars are added to the pie, your share of the pie steadily becomes smaller.

It truly is breathtaking. M1 has literally been rising at almost a vertical rate, and it makes all of the inflation that has come before look almost meaningless. Congress just kept passing “stimulus package” after “stimulus package” in a desperate attempt to “rescue” the economy. But in the process they borrowed and spent trillions of dollars that we did not have, and that also helped to fuel our transition into hyperinflation.

The good news is that hyperinflation is not showing up at the grocery store or at Walmart yet. Eventually it will happen, but so far consumer prices are just rising at a pace that is quite a bit brisker than usual. Where we are seeing hyperinflation is in stock prices, high end real estate in rural and suburban areas, and in other areas of the economy that the ultra-wealthy have been pouring their money into.

Our national landscape is already littered with abandoned stores and restaurants, and they are telling us that it is only going to get worse. What is our country going to look like as this process plays out? Of course our authorities will just respond to every new crisis by printing even more money. That is what they did down in Venezuela, and now just about everyone in Venezuela is a millionaire. But most of those “millionaires” are living in crushing poverty because the money is absolutely worthless. Our story is going to end badly too, and every American needs to get prepared to survive in a very painful hyperinflationary environment.
