Daniel Lacalle: An Economic Warning America & The World Can’t Ignore!

Andrew Brill welcomes renowned economist Daniel Lacalle, PhD, to discuss the unsustainable trajectory of the U.S. and major global economies, which are already experiencing a private-sector “hidden recession.” Lacalle, Chief Economist at Tressis, unpacks how massive government spending and loose central bank policies are inflating short-term GDP growth while creating long-term risks, including persistent inflation, unmanageable public debt, and debasement and potential loss of confidence in the U.S. dollar, as reflected in the S&P 500 and the price of gold. He highlights the growing disparity between strong headline figures and the struggles faced by everyday citizens, as inflation disproportionately affects the lower and middle class and small businesses. Lacalle advocates for pro-growth private sector policies and warns that only by curbing debt and inflation can a sustainable economic future be secured.

This man knows his stuff, one of the best guests I have listened to. He cuts through the bullshit we’re being told and explains what is going on under the hood. Excellent show.

Daniel is a great and wise guest with a good moral compass. Thanks for having him on.

Clear, concise (as always) explanation of government overreach and the subsequent egregious spending we are all paying for in our daily lives. This irresponsibility has contributed to the shrinking of the middle class.... The legs on which a country stands.... Effectively we are all being knee-capped! Much appreciated. Thank you for your time.

LaCalle is an underrated and astute observer.

Term limits are the only answer. Twelve years maximum. This would allow Senators to actually do what’s best for the country in their second term instead of positioning for themselves to get reelected again. Hopefully the house of representatives would catch on and do what’s right. Until this happens, nothing will change.

Excellent analysis. Almost didn't listen when I saw he was a PHD in Ecconomics. He could replace 400 PHD's at Fed. The problem is clear but many needed to obsfucate policy.

[Weetorp]

He speak so damn annoying. Mhm? right? yes? no? huh?

[RipoffRadar]

No matter who has the US $ or how much of it, it's all American debt, bc the US $ doesnt come into existance until the US treasuries sells bonds, meaning the value & equity of every $ that exists has already been hawked. How many times can the same $1 be borrowed with interest? US treasury borrows it at 5% interest, than the banks borrow the same already hawked $, then the business or homeowner borrows the same already twice hawked $, so there is no new money coming in, meaning there is absolutely no wealth creation
