You might be thinking everythings okay: the stock market is on the rise  jobs are growing  the worst of it is over. Youd be wrong. In The Real Crash  New York Times bestselling author Peter D. Schiff argues that America is enjoying a government-inflated bubble  one that reality will explode . . . with disastrous consequences for the economy and for each of us. Schiff demonstrates how the infusion of billions of dollars of stimulus money has only dug a deeper hole: the United States government simply spends too much and does not collect enough money to pay its debts  and in the end  Americans from all walks of life will face a crushing consequence. Were in hock to China  we cant afford the homes we own  and the entire premise of our currency---backed by the full faith and credit of the United States---is false. Our system is broken  Schiff says  and there are only two paths forward. The one were on now leads to a currency and sovereign debt crisis that will utterly destroy our economy and impoverish the vast majority of our citizens. However  if we change course  the road ahead will be a bit rockier at first  but the final destination will be far more appealing. If we want to avoid complete collapse  we must drastically reduce government spending---eliminate entire agencies  end costly foreign military escapades and focus only on national defense---and stop student loan or mortgage interest deductions  as well as drug wars and bank-and-business bailouts. We must also do what no politician or pundit has proposed: America should declare bankruptcy  restructure its debts  and reform our system from the ground up. Persuasively argued and provocative  The Real Crash explains how we got into this mess  how we might get out of it  and what happens if we dont. And  with wisdom born from having predicted the Crash of 2008  Peter Schiff explains how to protect yourself  your family  your money  and your country against what he predicts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44983722278965,"sku":"ByrdShop_1250004470","price":26.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781250004475.jpg?v=1770807498","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-real-crash","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
