2026-07-13 Japan's Fiscal Meltdown, America's Healthcare Crisis & Why a Monetary Reset May Be Closer Than You Think

Author: Dennis Tubbergen July 13, 2026 Duration: 34:19
Is the global financial system approaching a breaking point? This week on RLA Radio, Dennis Tubbergen examines the warning signs emerging from Japan's rapidly deteriorating economy and explains why the United States may be following a similar path. From collapsing currencies and rising interest rates to growing concerns over inflation and government debt, Dennis explores why many economists believe a financial reset is becoming increasingly difficult to avoid. Joining the program is Brownstone Institute founder Jeffrey Tucker for an in-depth discussion on the unraveling of America's healthcare system, skyrocketing medical insurance costs, declining workforce participation, Federal Reserve policy, and the growing appeal of socialism among younger generations. The episode concludes with a fascinating look at the Founding Fathers' views on gold, silver, and paper money—and what their warnings may mean for investors today. If you're concerned about protecting your wealth, understanding today's economic landscape, and preparing for what may lie ahead, this is an episode you won't want to miss. Jeffrey A. Tucker is the Founder and President of the Brownstone Institute and the author of many thousands of articles in the scholarly and popular press and ten books in 5 languages, most recently publisher of Blindsight in 2020. He is also the editor of The Best of Mises. He speaks widely on topics of economics, technology, social philosophy, and culture. For more information about our guest, Mr. Jeffrey A.
