The Hidden Tax Known As Inflation

What’s Missing?

Which definition describes the “public servant” part of a politician’s duties?  It doesn’t, and it doesn’t for a very simple reason.  Politics has NOTHING to do with serving the public.  It’s about self-interest and POWER.  Once you understand the mind of a politician, all of their actions become very clear indeed.  Once they get power, then they want MORE power and when they’ve got more power……………….they want even MORE, just like any other addict.

What DO They Do?

What do politicians do for a living?  Well, surely they run their (respective) countries and ensure our security and well-being………..right?  WRONG!

Here’s what they REALLY do.  They do three things really, really, REALLY well:

1. Spend other people’s money

2. Borrow other people’s money

3. Invent money based on nothing

Of the three, the third one is probably the most detrimental to your well-being (both financial and physical).

Not thrilled enough to simply take money from one group of people and give it, at THEIR discretion, to other people (whomever will vote for them), they will then BORROW money from other countries (such as China) to fund even more of their absurd policies and promises (promises that that invariably break).

Finally, when they can’t borrow any more money, they will simply print the stuff (or the digital equivalent nowadays).

Inflation

Inflation is NOT when businessmen simply put prices up because they are greedy.  Nothing could be further from the truth, thought THAT IS EXACTLY what politicians want you to believe.

The FACT is, inflation is a direct result of increasing the amount of money in circulation, devaluing what is already in circulation and therefore forcing prices upwards.

Like all other parasites (mosquitoes, tape-worms etc.) politicians, at least, todays variety, can ONLY ever harm you.  Watch them closely and don’t believe a WORD that they say.  You can guarantee that everything they say is aimed at their OWN well-being, NOT YOURS!
