Did you know that the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar has fallen by more than 97 percent since 1913 ?

Last week Peter joined Shannon Joy on her podcast to warn listeners that runaway government spending and a corrupting alliance between state and corporate power are eating away at living standards.
