You might recall an article I wrote a few years ago addressing John Williams, his hyperinflation lunacy and manipulation of the gold market by hacks like Williams. 
Dismantling John Williams' Hyperinflation Predictions
The analysis was so compelling even Kitco's senior gold analyst made a point to reach out and congratulate me on my work.
Imagine that. The senior analyst for a gold company making applauding my analysis exposing the gold pumping scene.
Kitco Senior Gold Analyst Agrees with My Views on Gold
Although I intended to blast Williams a few years earlier than 2011, I simply had no time. Even still, the release of this landmark article positioned me as at least the first if not the only person in the world to have irrefutibly debunked Williams and his ridiculous claims. The ironic thing was that I didn't even need to point out what a joke his so-called "inflation data" is.
You see, Williams sells what he calls "economic research." That's his business. The only problem is that economic data is free and widely available in the U.S. The challenge for Williams is to somehow get people to believe his economic research provides a unique angle worthy of a paid subscription. 
This is where marketing to gold bugs comes in. By making factual claims about changes in the way government data is collected and then pulling an "Alex Jones" or "Peter Schiff-like" spin, you can market your "conclusions" in an economic newsletter to the conspiracy nut jobs, much of which include gold bugs.
This approach works well when you're dealing with cult members, especially when they lack an adequate understanding of economics and the capital markets.
Williams was rewarded for his propaganda early on, by becoming known unofficially as what I would refer to as the chief economist of the gold pumping doomsday crime syndicate. 
Regardless what Williams claims, I cannot imagine any sane person with above average intelligence ever paying attention to, much less paying for a subscription to Williams economic nonsense.
I actually consider his manipulation of economic data to fall into the category of fraud, unless he is a complete nut and actually believes his nonsense.
Golden Dreams & Delusions: The Story about Gold You Haven't Heard (PART 1)
At some point you should ask yourself why no one else managed to debunk Williams' nonsense. 
As you can imagine, Williams had no response to my criticisms at any point after the release of the 2011 article, most likely because he realized he's way out of his league and would not be able to dance his way out.
This lack of response was similar to the rest of the clowns who have conned millions into the poor house with their fear porn.
Some of you might also recall that I was also the first person to debunk the hyperinflation fear mongering.
Addressing More Myths About Gold And Silver
Why Hyperinflation Isn't Coming To The U.S.
In fact, to this day, not a single gold dealer, gold pumper or anyone else I have exposed has so much as challenged my claims about gold, the U.S. dollar, the U.S. economy, the U.S. stock market, the bond market, U.S. Treasury bonds, inflation, interest rates, the euro, the EU, trade, healthcare, China, and everything else I have discussed; not Peter Schiff, not Jim Rogers, not Marc Faber, not anyone because they know they are outmatched. You cannot defeat the facts.
When you state facts without having an agenda, the only other characteristics required to ensure victory is complete honesty and integrity.
Top 20 Gimmicks and Lies of Gold Charlatans
It's always good to look back and review things from the past because doing so gives us a better perspective. With that in mind, let's go over a few videos from John Williams and others.
The "Greatest Transfer Of Wealth Opportunity" Hoax
As you watch each video you should try to take yourself back to the year the video was made. You should think back to the sentiment and what was going on at the time. Doing so should provide you with a good perspective.
This next video shows what can happen to a person who drank the the kool-aid served by gold charlatans.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry, as this man drags his daughter into the doomsday mythology surrounding gold and silver.
Williams made the rounds of the gold crime syndicate, having appeared on most major TV networks, from CNBC to CNN. Notably, Glenn Beck often cited Williams when delivering his fear-mongering speeches orchestrated to get his sheep audience to buy gold from the scam company, Goldline. Beck made millions of dollars in a short time as a whore for the scam gold company Goldline. Beck & Co.: Cashing in through Scare Tactics
When you include other endorsements and ads for gold dealers, Beck probably cleared tens of millions of dollars for lying. In the end, this money came from people who lost their ass buying gold.
Many of the people who bought gold as a result of the fear mongering propaganda Beck promoted will never recover financially. Some of them do not even realize this yet. They are still living in a delusional state thinking they will become rich once hyperinflion strikes and gold soars to $10,000. By the time the come to terms with reality, it will be too late. By that time gold will be selling for $400.
The money brought in by Beck and FOX for gold endorsements and gold ads ultimately came from the suckers who bought gold based on false information and psychological manipulation. They were conned. Manipulation of Gold and Silver Prices
Beck kept every single penny of this money. Peter Schiff has kept every nickel he made selling gold and silver, as well as his
useless books. Jim Rickards, Eric Sprott, Mike Maloney; the list is nearly endless. There are many other scum bags who benefited financially at the expense of the suckers. The money these individuals made was based on deceit and fear-mongering.
Gold Charlatans Strike it Rich While their Sheep Get Fleeced (Part 1)
Even if you were not a victim of this scam, it should enrage you if you care about humanity.
This is why I was banned by the so-called "alternative media." I didn't tow the con artist line (I've discussed why I was banned by the so-called "mainstream media" elsewhere). As a result, the public was and continues to be faced with con men and idiots who represent the best interests of themselves and the media.
Understanding the Proper Use of Gold and Silver
Folks, I want you to remember that the guys towing the line of the gold dealers are constantly claiming a crash in the US stock market, US dollar and US economy is imminent. These scum bags are playing this fear-mongering emotional game as a way to receive mass exposure from the gold charlatan network. 
By receiving constant interviews, clowns like Williams and many others (like Gerald Celente) gain access to millions of idiots, some of which will subscribe to their completely useless newsletters, books and other products associated with the doomsday mentality.
This scam has been going on now for many years. I first exposed it back in 2009. The Gold Price Paradox
There are various shills pulling this stunt, from Jim Rickards, Nomi Prins, David Stockman, Paul Craig Roberts and Ron Paul to Chris Martenson and hundreds of other low level shills.
I believe what these people are doing is fraud. And it's costing millions of people who have fallen for this scam their life savings. The only problem is that it will never be labeled as fraud by authorities so long as the victims continue to remain brainwashed and delusional because they will never file complaints to the authorities. This is one reason why the gold charlatans continue to indoctrinate their cult members with a continuous batch of new propaganda. Throughout the scam, their weapon has been fake news. This is the fake news no one else is talking about. I've been exposing it for several years but very people few seem to get it. Moron of the Month: John Williams
