This canât continue forever. So, we wanted to ask the question⦠What if we allowed banks to fail? As we explored this idea in great detail, we quickly realized it would lead to the greatest opportunity to unlock value for the average individual in history. And that scares Washington. Allowing free markets to work would upend everything they know and hold dear. Just imagineâ¦
- No more lobbyists pushing rules to protect corporate profits.
- All the money and time saved from cutting out bureaucratic oversight.
- New opportunities in cryptocurrencies and fintech beyond anything weâve seen so far.
And thatâs just the start. All this might sound like a pipe dream, but itâs much closer than most of you realize. Itâs our job to prepare you for this eventuality by helping you navigate a tumultuous future and capitalize on opportunities that put the pandemic lows to shame. SPONSORED CONTENT Sponsored Content [Wall Street Caliber A.I. for the "Little Guy" For years, Wall Street's been using A.I. to gain an edge. Now, a top tech company is "leveling the playing field." For over six years now, they've been developing a cutting edge A.I. algorithm that can predict future stock prices with astonishing accuracy.

To be fair, the former Daily Show host is one of the more reasonable voices in a sea of deafening stupidity. And frankly, weâd question if the Democratic Party would still accept him today. But itâs a recent clip from his Apple T.V. series The Problem With Jon Stewart that caught our attention. Itâs been making the rounds on Twitter (or X, as itâs now called). [The short clip]( takes corporate bailouts to task, and rightfully so. He points out hypocrisy, especially amongst banks, when the government prevents their failure but allows them to pass profits to their shareholders. â[Corporations] socialize their losses and privatize their gains.â There arenât many places that draw bipartisan anger like the financial sector. Everyone knows Wall Street plays by a different set of rules -- ones they abuse for profit without consequence. The philosophical difference between the parties is one of tactics. Liberals want heavier government involvement and regulatory framework to keep banks in line. Unfortunately, we have seen where that gets us. Silicon Valley Bank abided by every statute and still found a way to put itself over its skis. Greed will find a way to worm through any system no matter how large, while suppressing true market potential. The left gives bureaucrats the power to save these institutions and then acts surprised when they abuse it. So, what would a world without bailouts and more free market control look like?

[Click Here for the Full Story.]( [Click Here to Read More...]( The Initial Pain Letâs first explore what would happen if we wiped out the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and insurance protection. Itâs unlikely people would simply pull their money out of the banks because⦠well⦠where would you put it? What weâd likely see is banks reverting to a system backed by assets like gold, much as it had been before the modern era. Depositors would choose institutions who could provide a clear risk assessment of the bankâs holdings. In turn, the average individual would become far more aware and educated about the financial system. If we didnât see similar moves abroad, itâs quite likely money would flow out of the United States to safe harbors like Japan or the European Union, at least initially. There would certainly be some short-term pain, with high net-worth individuals needing to diversify their holdings in favor of owning less risky assets. Plus, there would be a contraction in credit as lending standards increased. Many smaller banks would fold or limit the number of depositors they allowed. This might sound far-fetched. However, given the Federal Reserveâs recent abuse of power, people want to reign in government involvement. So, itâs very possible we see things start at least traveling down this road.

[Save your seat to watch live >>]( [Click Here to Read More...]( Banking Utopia What would the end game look like? The dollar and other government-backed fiat currencies wouldnât just disappear. Theyâre too entrenched, and people trust them. However, like gold, dollars donât have much utility in the real world. We canât eat dollars to stay alive, and gold isnât a great metal for much of anything. Decentralized currencies would likely gain a stronger foothold since their utility is based entirely on usersâ acceptance. And when you have a choice between dollars, gold and Bitcoin, in this new environment, the lower transaction costs and simplicity of Bitcoin makes a lot more sense. Weâd also see banks range in credit quality and facility. Youâd have an opportunity to deposit your money at a behemoth bank that wonât pay you a nickel for your deposits, but isnât likely to lose it either. Or you could choose a riskier bank that might pay you above market interest to gain access to your money. Whatâs almost guaranteed is that the government would have less power and involvement, along with not having to bear the costs associated with managing the financial system. And while some would argue dissolving our current system would lead to chaos, we believe a true free market would create MORE STABLE economic cycles as businesses and capital can adjust faster on their own. Where Does That Leave Us? None of us are likely to see that nirvana in our lifetime. But we cannot and must not continue down this path of government expansion. Itâs unsustainable. The transitions will be slow and incremental, each injecting a fresh round of volatility into the market. Thatâs why itâs critical to analyze investments within a political and economic framework. And that is Dr. Mark Skousenâs specialty. You wonât find him on MSNBC anytime soon. Dr. Skousen is a voracious reader and a key intellect on government and economic policy.
