Garrett Goggin, editor and analyst known for his deep insight into precious metals and macroeconomic trends, joins Steve Barton on In It to Win It to deliver a powerful breakdown of the financial storm brewing beneath the surface of the global economy. Garrett explains how mounting U.S. debt, now over $37 trillion, and the fading trust in the U.S. dollar as a “risk-free” asset are reshaping capital flows into gold and silver.

info_outlineJohn, founder of Shadow Government Statistics, joins Steve Barton on In It To Win It to reveal how U.S. economic data has been distorted since the 1980s. He explains that government-reported figures on inflation and GDP are manipulated using methods like substitution and hedonics, significantly understating the real cost of living and economic hardship. According to John, actual inflation is over 10% and true unemployment hovers around 27.5%, with official statistics designed to serve political ends, particularly around election times.
John also warns that the Federal Reserve’s pandemic-era policies unleashed decades’ worth of monetary stimulus in just months, setting the stage for prolonged inflation. He urges Americans to protect themselves by investing in physical gold, calling it a shield against the economic instability ahead. This interview is a wake-up call for anyone seeking to understand the true state of the U.S. economy.
