I read this book twice over a period of several years. I kept coming back to it because of it's accessible narrative. The author demystifies complex economic concepts for the average reader (likely honed from years of experience in radio broadcasting). The book is part history lesson and part novel, as the author weaves fictional (cautionary?) tales between his more explanatory chapters.
The book's first half provides a historical backdrop of the U.S. economy, tracing pivotal moments from the establishment of the Federal Reserve through the Great Depression, WWII, and various economic crises. It does a good job of explaining history and setting the stage for understanding today's economic challenges. Later in the book he identifies a series of signals (predictions) which portend a coming collapse. His description of risky banking practices and loans to notably unscrupulous characters like Donald Trump made me laugh...and then realize time has borne out his prediction.
Here are some of his key points:
Although some of Burkett's predictions may seem extreme (such as the collapse of the dollar being orchestrated by evildoers at the World Bank -- as described in his final cautionary tale), many of his signs of economic distress are now visible. His advice on individual financial preparedness, advocating for debt avoidance, living within one's means, prioritizing retirement planning, and engaging in the political process to encourage a stable economy, remains as relevant today as it was over three decades ago.
Overall, The Coming Economic Earthquake is a good read for those interested in economic theory, fiscal policy, and personal financial planning. There weren't too many Christian overtones, despite Burkett's background. I've added it to my permanent financial insights bookshelf along with other topics as The Bitcoin Standard and The Creature from Jekyll Island.
Whether or not you subscribe to Burkett's predictions, the work serves as a thought-provoking analysis of the potential consequences of unchecked economic policies in a world of fiat currency.
Review Post Script
I found the closing below in an earlier draft of my review, written back in February 2022 after my first reading of Burkett's work. I think it still has value.
As I worked my way through the second half of the book, the idea that this book was a "history of the future" was foremost in my mind. Mr. Burkett's writing is prescient. There are far, far too many parallels with what has happened in the 30 years since its publication: bank failures, government bailouts, quantitative easing to fund the debt, and even centrally-controlled digital currencies.
This work makes clear that the world we know today (the world of fiat currency and a debt-based economy) was destined to fail from the outset. We are only waking up to it today. Fortunately, today we have a way out -- pure peer-to-peer currency. Money out of the hands of the banks and governments. Sovereign currency that can't be debased. Bitcoin.
I am now more convinced than ever that adoption of a bitcoin standard is the only thing that can save the world.… (plus d'informations)
