Every major economic system in history looked stable — right up until it wasn’t. Feudalism. Mercantilism. #Capitalism. Each collapsed when its constraints became binding. The new Macro Watch video considers whether today's system, #Creditism, is any different.

Why Economic Systems Collapse Economic systems don’t collapse because ideas change. They collapse because constraints change — and the old system can no longer function. History shows this pattern again and again. I analyze this process in my new Macro Watch video.

Capitalism didn’t fail ideologically. It failed financially — under constraints it could no longer survive. That’s how Creditism was born. Now Creditism is approaching its own limits. I explore what this means in a new Macro Watch video. #Creditism #Capitalism

The Federal Reserve has adopted Perpetual QE — just under a different name. This short clip explains why the Fed’s new policy is effectively a Fed–Big Bank swindle, paid for by taxpayers. #QE #Fed

QE Again and Forever! The Fed says this isn’t QE. But if they’re buying debt, expanding reserves, and propping up markets… what else do you call it? Perpetual money creation is here. The only question now: who benefits — and who pays? ♾️💵 #MacroWatch #QE #RMPs #Fed #FOMC

The Genesis Mission looks strikingly similar to what I argued for years ago in my book The Money Revolution. This AI-generated podcast, compares today’s policy initiative with the framework I proposed for securing the next American century.🎥 Watch here: https://t.co/4sybORI0Xg

This podcast compares the Genesis Mission with the ideas I proposed in my book The Money Revolution — large-scale public investment, AI, data, and national capability working together to drive long-term growth. 🎧 Listen here: https://t.co/4sybORI0Xg #AI #NationalSecurity

There’s a bubble. Should you sell? Valuations are extreme, especially in many AI-related stocks. In my video There’s a Bubble — Should You Sell? I explain why I’m not selling — but also why perhaps you should. Learn why:

AI will transform the economy. That doesn’t mean prices can’t overshoot. In November, I asked the uncomfortable question in a Macro Watch video: There’s a Bubble — Should You Sell? I'm not selling, but perhaps you should. Read more: https://t.co/17BEWcN0vF #AI #TechStocks

When the Genesis Mission was announced, the parallels to my book The Money Revolution were striking: large-scale public investment aimed at future technologies in cooperation with the private sector. Read the book's Introduction here: https://t.co/QrQ30QqGvS #GenesisMission

The Genesis Mission isn’t just an AI initiative — it’s a national growth strategy. By linking national labs, government data, and the private sector, the US is building the platform for the next technological leap. Read more: https://t.co/zzRqEIAurY #Tech #AI

The Fed says its renewed Treasury purchases are “not monetary policy.” But when Bank Reserves must grow $20–25B every month just to keep the system stable, balance sheet expansion is no longer temporary. This is structural money creation. Learn more:

The Genesis Mission reflects a simple but powerful idea: the US can accelerate scientific discovery by connecting government data, supercomputers, scientists, and the private sector on a shared platform. This approach is not only pro-innovation — it’s essential for long-term

The Genesis Mission is bringing together companies across the entire AI-industrial stack — from NVIDIA and Microsoft to quantum computing, critical materials, and grid infrastructure. (See image more private sector partners below.) That breadth is exactly what’s required to

The Fed is warming up the printing press — whether by choice or necessity. The only question is how quickly it will be forced to act. Learn more from Macro Watch: https://t.co/SlZPua1tQU #QuantitativeEasing #QE #Fed
