Hello, everybody, and thank you for tuning in to the Liberty Report.

With us today, we have Chris Rosini, our co-host.

Chris, welcome to the program.

Happy New Year, Dr. Paul.

Great to be with you.

Very good.

I hope it stays a happy new year because there was a lot of optimism back in November

when it was decided that we had had enough of Biden in the Biden family and dirty politics.

We don't like that, so we're glad they're going.

But is there anybody working in the dark and still promoting some of those same ideas?

Well, tell you what, I think we better continue to worry about spending because even though there's a lot of good intentions in Washington and it's improved with the election, for some reason, I think the task is huge and we have to deal with that.

And we talked Chris a little while ago about an article that said, I was talking about the

deficit and what might happen in the Trump years.

And they're predicting that it's going to be, it's going to go up $4 billion, billion,

up to $51 trillion, you know, in four years.

So I wouldn't bet all my money on exactly what it's going to be like in four years

because conceivably explosion of problems can occur.

Something might happen a lot sooner than that, and maybe something will

come about that some of these reforms are passed and allow us to limp a long lot further.

But we have a long way to go, and that's why we partner with Birch Goldrew, because they know about this, and we've talked

with them, and we've worked with them over several years now with the idea that the stock

market and the regular market is probably blown up a bit, and that gold is still a good haven.
