Ep.2: Benjamin J Butler – The Future of Government in the Era of Public Institutional Collapse
In a wide-ranging discussion with Benjamin J Butler (https://x.com/englishfuturist), we discuss the growing distrust of our public institutions, the future of government, environmental sustainability, systemic corruption, and the real way forward: bypassing the catchy slogans to truly address the real problems. Inflation as a permanent issue versus the natural state of the economy being deflation. And as always, how to position portfolios with all this in mind.
