now, peter, you were right. it has gotten worse. do you think it's going to get even worse from here? well, absolutely. you know what we're experiencing now is the tip of an inflation iceberg . there's a lot more beneath the surface and you know, when jerome pow began using the term, transitory. i said at that time that he was incorrect, that maybe he was lying, that there is no way. it was transitory that it was here to stay. and that it was getting much worse. it took him a long time to finally acknowledge that the inflation is not transitory or though at this point, he's pretending he's going to do something about it. in reality, the feds going to do nothing but make it worse. and it almost like de paul was actually saying, well, maybe trans story was the wrong word. let's find another word for temporary and that's what we'll say. but the fact is that claim was just justifying continued efforts to pump free money into the economy as the fed has done over and over and over again. what has been the effect of that specially througho

is peter shift of euro pacific capital. now peter, we want to start here by playing a clip of your prediction for inflation this year. take a listen. i think it is going to get worse before it gets much worse. well, i mean, the inflation pipeline is pretty full. in fact, if you look at the p p, i numbers that came out today in the 1st 10 months of the year. producer prices are up 8.3 percent annualize that for the full year and that's 10 percent increase, which is quite a bit larger. i think consumer prices are up maybe about 6 percent during the same time period. now, peter, you were right. it has gotten worse. do you think it's going to get even worse from here? well, absolutely. you know what we're experiencing now is the tip of an inflation iceberg . there's a lot more beneath the surface and you know, when your own power all began using the term, transitory. i said at that time that he was incorrect, that maybe he was lying, that there is no way. it was transitory that it was here to stay. and that it was getting much

george you some right that excellent peter. i think that's exactly what the russians saying, which is that we have been saying the same thing to you over and over again starting from 1991. when a go or assurances from the west of the west will not expand into space left. i believe the withdrawal so ok and you know, with complaint again and again the west is treated complaints with content and just say, you know, you lost the cold war, you know, then the brakes. and now that the geopolitical situation has changed very much in an adverse fashion. where was this so playing this game of coming up with these silly, legalistic arguments like, well, every country has the summer and right to decide its own security arrangement. and in any case we, we never promised you anything. and even if we didn't promise you anything, we didn't put it in writing. and in any case, there was a defensive alliance. how much it made span all the way to central asia. the chinese all is still a defensive alliance. and so coming up with this kind of nonsen

so many of peter take his houses are standing empty. come, my dear, i haven't been able to contact the tenant of this place for 3 months in this apartment. the tenant has been out of work for 3 months so far. i can't get anything from him yet. allow this rent or moved out after not paying for 6 months because of the corona pandemic. lego, the place has been empty since then. and enters. enters peter che got might be complaining, but he's doing very well compared to his tenants who face extreme hardship. he's a man of 2 faces. he might leave the tenants alone for a few months, but then he'll send a gang around to settle, matters by force. meanwhile, the residence of maternity remain at the mercy of him and his fellow slum lords. escaping poverty can seem almost impossible. one way is through a good education and that doesn't necessarily mean a business or medical degree. deafness and imagination, for example, can be very useful. and then very much in demand in one rather magical place on the outskirts of cape town. ah, and to vote, love

so pub, francis has celebrated the annual christmas eve mass in st. peter's basilica despite a shop rise in cove. at 19 cases. the traditional midnight mass was actually held at the earlier time of 7 30 in the evening. and it focused on the plot of workers and the world's pool. ah, the choir echoes over a reduced crowd to the 2nd deer in a room. an estimated 2000 people attended the pope's traditional christmas eve mass compared to only 200 last year. the 85 year old pontiff focused his message on addressing global poverty, saying that people who are indifferent to the world's poor offend god include saying you that is the sign. a child, a baby lying in the dia, poverty of a manger. humans had just a poor child wrapped in swaddling clothes, with shepherds standing by monday by 30 i thought that his way god is in little noisy. ah, francis also used his 9th address to remind people that serving others is more important than spending a lifetime in pursuit of success. but the corona virus pandemic still cast a shadow over the service. ah, just minutes before the mass began in italy announced

i'm peter developed from and you were discussing 20212022. ah. okay, let's go back to john in paris. you know, one of the events of 2021 that i found really quite fascinating was this rather ridiculous democracy summit. the virtual one i think of. everyone remembers here and you know, it all of this talk about a democracy, but for me it was just, it was a very, very much an ideological show to data maintain, had gemini, because is the, it was presented as, you know, a confident western lead world. i with, with that while back by their ideology, the course they don't call it neo liberalism, but you know, they call it democracy, rule of law, all of this type of thing. but i actually thought it was more of a, a virtual presentation out of desperation. but they're losing at their losing control. okay. and they're trying to maintain a narrative here. and of course, you know, i mean, you know, everybody likes puppies. everybody likes democracy. i mean, you know, it's, it's one of the, it's ridiculous facade for me. and it was a ridiculous exercise, but

peter chan. hong always great speaking to you. thanks so much. nicole. as 2021 draws to a close, we're looking back at some of our notable reports from the year when at them the falling piece by terry schultz on how military's are exempt from international agreements on cutting greenhouse gas emissions. there's a dirty little secret, almost every country's keeping, except it's not that little. in many cases, a nation's armed forces are its biggest single emitter of greenhouse gases. but how big is secret that's allowed under both the kyoto and parents climate agreements. both deals have exempted military forces based on the argument that adversaries could to do strategy using emissions data. but with climate catastrophes on the rise, environmental activists insist any credible carbon reduction plan must include these hidden figures, the size of the fuel use dependencies, huge and they've got huge supply chain. so obviously it's gonna make a big difference if they're invoked or not involved. and these emission reduction targets i am lindsey cottrell is a
