"They have painted a picture of disaster for the nation." This is an old interview but very relevant. It's a long interview, but my favorite part starts at around the 10 minute mark where he predicts our economic woes saying "it's certainly going to be some kind of crash." [12:15] He also speaks about those people who have a vested interest in rolling back America's social welfare programs, rolling back American government to what we had in the Hoover era. [12:40]. He is talking about a bait and switch situation where American government is manipulated by wealthy determined individuals are seeking to create a situation where the United States can no longer afford Social Security and Medicare, as a pretense for ending these programs by "eliminating the tax base." This is a must hear.
