"Our monetary system is out of control, we no longer have the ability to manage it. Central banks around the world have no tools left and it's going to do what it's going to do. And we're just bystanders at this point, watching the train wreck. This is no longer one of those inevitable things, it is now an imminent thing. And that's what makes it such a terrifying time... you shouldn't wish living through something like this on your worst enemy."
