Future Government? It’s Time to Handover to the Next Generation

Posted on September 6, 2021 by davidsprott

I would never try to tell the younger generation what to do. But just imagine for a moment how a worldwide organization could emerge, almost overnight.

Why listen to Bill Gates on How to Avoid a Climate Disaster!

Posted on February 22, 2021 by davidsprott

Bill Gates is not a climate scientist. He’s not a politician. He has a “lot” of money and investments that could be seen as conflicts of interest. Why on earth should we listen to him? This post is also available … Continue reading →
