ECONOMIC INFLATION:
The way I see it is that regardless of the currency utilized (gold, silver, fiat, crypto, etc), economic inflation is still economic inflation. ANY economic inflation over previous economic inflation, overtime, eventually becomes exponential economic inflation. If an entities' wages, benefits and investments do not keep up with the true cost of inflation, then the entity falls behind in buying power and becomes poorer. A nation will eventually fail as will a global economy will eventually fail with ever increasing economic inflation because most people do not have wages, benefits and investments that keep up with the true cost of inflation. Math is still math.

He said in the video, about 1:25 into the video, 'our Creator endowed us...."; The thing is though, 'God' does not actually exist except for just as a concept. A concept cannot endow anything. Brainwashed delusional individuals who believe a magical sky daddy actually exists. In no way should these people be leading a State or a Nation. In fact, maybe they should be removed from office for being mentally deficient since they are so delusional.
(copy and paste from my files):
GOD DOES NOT ACTUALLY EXIST EXCEPT FOR AS A CONCEPT:
For those who claim God actually exists (besides as a concept), consider the following:
a. An actual eternally existent absolute somethingness truly existing.
b. An actual eternally existent absolute somethingness that has consciousness, memories and thoughts truly existing.
People who claim God actually and eternally exists basically are claiming that 'b' above is correct but yet simultaneously seem to be saying that 'a' is impossible to occur.
'a' above can exist without 'b' existing but 'b' cannot exist unless 'a' exists. Even per the scientific principal of Occam's razor, 'a' is more probable of being really true rather than 'b'.
I am one step away from proving God's existence, but am unable to find any actual evidence to do so. And nobody I've talked to seems to have any actual evidence of God's actual existence either. All humans appear to have are 'Theories of God'. Some humans appear to go their whole life basing their life upon their specific theory of God. They even at times kill other humans based upon their own theories. Many give their God human characteristics and cannot even prove the existence of their God much less the characteristics given to their God. Some have circumstantial arguments for a God's existence, but others have circumstantial arguments for no God existing. Not one has any actual factual evidence that their God actually factually even exists. Hence, at this time in the analysis, God does not actually exist except for as a concept created by humans for humans. Humans have personified Nature and called that personification "God". It appears many of them are delusional and are believing in fairy tales as if those fairy tales were really true. Instead of what is claimed "God creating man in God's image", it's more likely that "Man created God in Man's image".
Further consider that if the emotional parts of the brain override the logic and reasoning parts of the brain, people can be made to believe basically anything at all as being really true. Plus modern science has already proven that humans can have visual and audio hallucinations that are very real to that individual. All the more reason for critical thinking being needed and to follow the facts wherever those facts might lead.
In addition, while modern science does not know what consciousness actually is yet, memories and thoughts appear to require a physical correctly functioning brain to have those items occur. Where is God's brain? Where are God's memories stored at? How are God's memories stored and retrieved? How does God think even a single coherent thought?
If inside of this space time dimension we appear are existing in, then where?
If outside of this space time dimension we appear are existing in, then where is the interface between that dimension and this dimension? No such interface has been discovered as of yet as far as I am currently aware of.
* Note: Since this is a search for the real absolute truth concerning God, Intelligent Designer, Pre-existent Consciousness, etc, feel free to copy and paste this elsewhere to further the analysis and discussion.

@jondoerr6527 And I also have no obligation to agree with you either. But then, let us also consider what most Americans consider to be the real facts:
a. This latest shutdown occurred BEFORE the Democrats took over Congress. Trump shutdown the government while his own party was still in power over the Congress, the Senate, and the Presidency.
b. Even 'if' the Democrats passed a bill with wall funding in it, AND the Republican controlled Senate passed that bill, AND President Trump even signed that bill into law, that does not automatically open the government back up. Trump and Trump alone shut this government down, and Trump and Trump alone is the ONLY one who can open this government back up. Nobody else in this nation can do what Trump can, even Trump admits to that. Trump owns this shutdown and even said he would own this shutdown in public. It's on the official record, at least if facts truly matter to you.
c. So, while you may have your opinion that you are entitled to that Democrats own this shutdown, the actual facts seem to indicate otherwise. Trump and Trump alone owns this shutdown and Trump and Trump's supporters are making America 'less safe' and 'less great' by what they are currently doing. Some might have an opinion that they are idiots for doing so. Others might have an opinion that they are just highly incompetent. And yet others might have an opinion that they are both idiots and incompetent. And yet others still might have an opinion that Trump is intentionally trying to destroy America. It's 'great' to be able to have opinions about topics and be able to freely share those opinions, even if we disagree, but then again, facts are still facts, or so they seem to be.

@jondoerr6527 Yep, thanks and I agree. When intelligent people are found here on the internet, especially in public forums, it's like finding a gem among the weeds.
As we appear to be individuals in a larger society of individuals, we each have our own perspective of how we all should exist. But, who decides and by what authority do they and they alone get to decide? The natural tension between doing what's best for the individual versus doing what's best for the larger society of individuals, and the various individuals and societies in existence, and who decides and by what authority they and they alone get to decide, is the cause of much strife, suffering and death in this world. But, being individuals in a larger society of individuals, we all have to exist someway, somehow while we do all exist.
But I currently believe that if people honestly answer the following questions, it would help them decide which political party to support, if any even at all:
a. How exactly should we, individually and as a society of individuals, exist while we do exist?
b. How exactly should the young, old, ill and needy be taken care of, if even at all?

@honkhonkler7732 Rich people and certain businesses, have also hidden their money outside of the USA, in addition to investing those resources in other nations besides the USA. Those are also ways America's wealth is being stolen from America. Money cannot even trickle down if it's not in the country to even trickle down.
And then with economic inflation, it's like a hidden tax. Prices go up but people's wages and benefits don't keep up with the true cost of inflation. Quantity of items bought often goes down for a certain amount of money. And Quality often suffers due to various reasons. People are spending more money and getting less for it. It's a huge transfer of wealth.
As far as the Fed goes, to some extent they are only following the laws that they are supposed to follow. It's corrupt politicians who write corrupt laws is where the issue is. Hence, 'We The People' need to rise up and put better politicians in office, so as to have better laws.
But then again, good laws or bad, corruption or not, the current ending is the same, even and including for the wealthy and the corrupt:
Current Analysis: Long Term: (Short Version):
* Species stay on this Earth: They all eventually die and go extinct.
* Species leave this Earth: They all eventually die and go extinct.
(No exceptions at this time).
1. Everybody will die one day from something.
2. Everybody will forget everything they ever knew and experienced.
3. Everybody will be forgotten one day in future eternity as if they never ever existed at all in the first place.
(OSICA)
* Life itself only matters to life itself, only as long as life itself still exists. It's just that life itself is not always going to exist, at least not from this Earth. For every moment that passes, one less moment being alive AND one moment closer to being not alive.
(Or so the current analysis would indicate).
* We can take comfort in knowing that certain entities will still get what is coming to them in the end.
