QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; I attended your May 1999 seminar in London. I am the person who asked you when would Britain exit the EU. You said not before 2016. Can you elaborate on how you could have possibly foreseen this event coming in June? You have won my full attention. By the way, this is […]

South Carolina: Apple & Donald Trump

February 21, 2016

  Trump took South Carolina with less than 40%. Bush just has the wrong name and should give up. The real reasons to worry are Cruz and Rubio, as both would differ little from electing Hillary. Nothing would pass their desks on taxes that they would not sign next year. So we are in a […]

Money Has Always Been What Was Available

February 20, 2016

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, most of the people in the gold community say you are wrong and gold has always been money. Would you care to respond? ANSWER: If you want to believe propaganda, that is fine.
