Western governments are “hopelessly and utterly insolvent.” This is easy to see but difficult to fix without massive trauma to many who “own” the politicians. Expect more QE, “printing,” and “helicopter drops” instead of sane and rational action to correct a broken financial system. Silver and gold prices will rise as debt based fiat currencies continue their “swan song” dive toward eventual worthlessness.
It has happened before and it will happen again. Paper dies, silver thrives.
