Famous for coining the term \"Quantitative Easing\" (QE) and publishing the first empirical proof that private banks create money out of thin air through lending, he has spent decades exposing the central planning mechanisms that dictate global finance.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, we discuss the ”Revealed Preference\" framework - demonstrating why we must analyse central bankers by their actions rather than their rhetoric. He explains how central planners use artificial recessions and banking crises as \"windows of opportunity\" to consolidate ownership, why textbook economics deliberately obscures credit creation, and how establishing decentralised local banks can unlock sustainable 10%+ annual growth.</p><p><br></p><p>- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -</p><p><br></p><p>TIMESTAMPS:</p><p>00:00:00 - Central Bankers Are Traitors To Their Countries</p><p>00:01:04 - Why Can't Britain Grow?</p><p>00:06:50 - Princes Of The Yen</p><p>00:11:19 - It Was Always About Control</p><p>00:13:38 - Banks Don't Lend Your Deposits</p><p>00:14:27 - Show Me Where The Money Is Created</p><p>00:16:14 - Every School Of Economics Gets It Wrong</p><p>00:20:14 - Why Would They Do This?</p><p>00:21:57 - Britain Is Close To Central Planning</p><p>00:22:46 - America Once Had 30,000 Banks</p><p>00:27:48 - The Problem Was Identified In 1918</p><p>00:31:18 - Who Runs The City Of London?</p><p>00:33:46 - We Need Thousands Of Small Banks</p><p>00:38:14 - First The Money, Then The Power</p><p>00:44:04 - Every Country Can Have 10% Growth</p><p>00:47:12 - Liz Truss And The Bank Of England</p><p>00:50:23 - We Don't Need Central Banks</p><p>00:52:22 - Were The Austrians Right?</p><p>00:57:35 - They Want Your Savings</p><p>00:59:21 - Europe's New Right</p><p><br></p><p>- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -</p><p><br></p><p>CONTACT PETE</p><p>› Website – <a href=\"http://petermccormack.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">http://petermccormack.com</a></p><p>› Feedback – <a href=\"https://www.petermccormack.com/contact\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.petermccormack.com/contact</a></p><p>› Email – <a href=\"mailto:me@petermccormack.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">me@petermccormack.com</a></p><p>› Instagram – <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/mccormack555/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.instagram.com/mccormack555/</a></p><p>› X/Twitter – <a href=\"https://x.com/petermccormack/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://x.com/petermccormack/</a></p><p><br></p><p>CONNECT WITH RICHARD WERNER</p><p>› Website – <a href=\"https://professorwerner.org/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://professorwerner.org/</a></p><p>› Substack – <a href=\"https://rwerner.substack.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://rwerner.substack.com/</a></p><p>› Princes of the Yen – <a href=\"https://www.quantumpublishers.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.quantumpublishers.com/</a></p><p>› X/Twitter – <a href=\"https://x.com/drrichardwerner\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://x.com/drrichardwerner</a></p><p><br></p><p>SPONSORS</p><p>› IREN – <a href=\"https://www.iren.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.iren.com/</a></p><p>› Arch Public – <a href=\"https://archpublic.com/peter\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://archpublic.com/peter</a></p><p>› Venice AI – <a href=\"https://venice.ai/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://venice.ai/</a> – Code PETER15</p><p><br></p><p>- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -</p><p><br></p><p>LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE</p><p>› Apple Podcasts: <a href=\"https://apple.co/40ruY9K\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://apple.co/40ruY9K</a></p><p>› Spotify: <a href=\"https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu</a></p><p>› Fountain: <a href=\"https://bit.ly/FountainPM\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://bit.ly/FountainPM</a></p><p>› YouTube: <a href=\"https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM</a></p><p>› Rumble: <a href=\"https://bit.ly/RumblePM\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://bit.ly/RumblePM</a></p><p><br></p><p>FILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR</p><p>› <a href=\"https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/</a></p><p>› <a href=\"https://x.com/curttayloruk/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://x.com/curttayloruk/</a></p><p><br></p><p>EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK</p><p>› <a href=\"https://x.com/ConorM04\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://x.com/ConorM04</a></p><p><br></p><p>- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -</p>","author_name":"Peter McCormack"}
