Money Mismanagement Breeds Crisis

Negative yielding interest rates reveal a dysfunctional relationship with money, where individuals pay to lend their funds, indicating a fundamental misalignment in financial value. This distortion illustrates the failure of market mechanisms and the illusion of control by governments, which have attempted to stabilize economies through artificial incentives, such as bringing interest rates to zero. Although intended to support markets, these policies lead to adverse outcomes, including unaffordable housing for a generation and disrupted household formation. Vital societal issues, like immigration and inflation, remain unaddressed, highlighting a disconnect between political narratives and public concerns, in a landscape where open discourse is stifled.
