In this week’s Off The Cuff I sit down with David Collum to discuss:
- The looming fiscal & social crises caused by underfunded pensions
- Is everything in America is now “Too Big To Fail”?
- Investing for a future of secular inflation
- The dangers of cancel culture & the “woke” movement
Never short on strong opinions, Cornell chemist and pontificator extraordinaire Dave Collum joins us this week to opine on a wide spectrum of topics.
Dave is very concerned about the trajectory America and much of the world is headed, careening down a slope that history shows ends in economic malaise, social discord and currency collapse. As a society, we seem to have lost our backbone; every politician is willing to sacrifice tomorrow’s prosperity for today’s quick fix, and the populace only rewards that can-kicking behavior.
When everyone is so unwilling to face consequences they are making a devil’s bargain: receiving a carefree today in exchange for a tomorrow filled with much larger problems that refuse to be postpones any longer. Are we ready for that reckoning?

In this week’s Off The Cuff I sit down with Axel Merk to discuss:
- The implications of yesterday’s announcements by the Federal Reserve
- How much does the Fed truly care about inflation?
- Is the Fed willing to sacrifice the purchasing power of the USD in pursuit of its dual mandate?
- Why resilience remains the right strategy, in both your finances and overall lifestyle
Expert Federal Reserve-watcher Axel Merk joins the program this week to react in real-time to yesterday’s latest announcements by the FOMC and Fed Chair Jerome Powell.
He and I discuss the Fed’s apparent lack of concern about both raising bond yields and building inflation concerns.
As far as Fed Chair Jerome Powell claims, the current easing mode of easy monetary policy is going to continue for a lot longer.
And for those concerned that the repercussions of those policies are having increasingly disastrous effect on the vast majority of the American public, Axel warns that it’s folly to believe the Fed is working in their interests…

In this week’s Off The Cuff I sit down with William Rees to discuss:
- Bill’s coining of the ‘ecological footprint’ concept
- Why he thinks humans have reach a ‘plague stage’ on the planet
- Why our leaders are unwilling to admit to the two problems that matter most
- Bill’s outlook for humanity’s future
We dive deep into the Environment/Ecology “E” of the Three E’s in this week’s Off The Cuff.
Highly-esteemed bio-ecologist and ecological economist William Rees returns to the program to reinforce his warning that the human population is badly in ecological overshoot. If we do not find a way to reduce our taxation of the planet’s resources, the consequences will be devastating.
And sadly, he notes that those “leaders” making policy decisions avoid addressing the issues that pose the greatest threat, because they are politically “sensitive”. Because of this, Bill considers most of the current multi-national agreements focused on dealing with issues of pollution, climate change, species loss, etc are misdirected attempts that aren’t addressing the core problems in the manner or scope needed.

In this week’s Off The Cuff I sit down with Richard Heinberg to discuss:
- Power: Richard’s new book
- How will humans deal with Earth’s limits to growth?
- Can capitalism exist in a de-growth economy?
- How solvable an issue is population growth?
In the final stages of writing his newest book, Power: Limits and Prospects for Human Survival, resource management expert Richard Heinberg joins us to share its principal conclusions.
Richard will be offering a few free chapters of the book in advance of its September launch, paired with an online discussion series. If you’re interested in participating, send an email to desiree@postcarbon.org asking to “sign me up for Power”
This was an excellent discussion, especially because Richard was game for letting me toss him a few “hot potato” semi-controversial questions about capitalism and population management.
That’s one of the benefits of Peak Prosperity’s premium content; we and our guest experts are able to talk more freely about many of these important challenges than we can in public forums. I hope you’ll enjoy the candor here.
