Chris Casey advises that individuals should focus on the root cause of financial repression, which he identifies as the debt situation of the states. He predicts this will ultimately translate into an inflation problem for the United States, impacting expectations for social security and necessitating inflation hedges.
“So, what they should be most concerned about is that the debt situation, the states are in. Uh, ultimately translates into an inflation problem in the United States.”
“And so that's really why I think people should do. They should not expect to have certain things they expect right now, like social security, or at least the degree they expect.”
“And they should also position themselves with inflation hedges because that's the only way the federal government will find its way out of it.”
