How a seed planted 50 years ago could
rescue our nation from financial collapse
What if you planted a seed ... and waited 50 years for the seed to grow and reach its full potential? What would you think about it? Would you be disappointed? Would you say it was a failure?
Not if it was an oak, which can take as long as 50 years to produce its first crop of acorns! And not if it could make a difference for a nation as old as ours!
My name is Martin Weiss, financial expert and New York Times bestselling author, with a very exciting announcement about a "seed" that my father planted 50 years ago and is now ready to reap a harvest that could play a role in literally rescuing our nation from financial collapse ...
And YOU are the key! Let me explain.
Citizen-Investors are the key to saving America's economy!
In recent weeks as government spending continued to spiral out of control, I launched a grassroots effort to protest these actions. In a few short weeks, more than 70,000 citizen-investors joined with me to send a strong message to Congress: "Stop the Bailout Madness!"
I personally delivered these petitions and met with key leaders on Capitol Hill to express the frustration and anger from citizen-investors like you. As I stood in the halls of Congress, I knew our work together was connected to the faithful efforts of others who came before us — who have stood in the gap for this nation and demanded financial accountability.
It's citizen-investors like you and me who have faithfully planted our financial "seeds" in this country ... our hard work, our businesses, our investments ...
And it is citizen-investors like you and me who have REFUSED to let big-spending politicians destroy those seeds through massive deficit spending and devaluing of the dollar.
Fifty years ago, my father Irving Weiss teamed together with his generation of citizen-investors to create a grassroots movement that confronted head-on the reckless spendacrats of his day.
Together, they launched the Sound Dollar Committee and flooded Congress with 12 million postcards, letters, and telegrams. And as a result, record deficits were stopped, the budget was balanced and the dollar saved ... for that singular moment in history. They won a great battle. But they lost an even greater war, as wild spending returned, with a vengeance.
And alas, the challenges we face are much greater than those my father faced ...
How the tidal wave of debt is destroying the dollar
As I wrote in my book, The Ultimate Depression Survival Guide, we have come to the end of the line and now face a tidal wave of debt that will destroy our economy. And once again, the key is the U.S. dollar.
There are forces at work right now that will devalue the dollar and destroy America's best opportunity for financial recovery!
Without a sound dollar, there will be no long-term recovery!
Without a sound dollar, the great enemy of inflation robs from the citizen-investor like a thief in the night!
Without a sound dollar, there is a disincentive to work or invest and, as a result, our nation is pulled away into a never-ending spiral of rampant borrowing, speculation, booms, busts and collapse!
Why YOU are the key
These are dark times for our nation — the darkest financial times we have seen since the Great Depression. California is broke, issuing IOUs to its creditors.
The federal deficit is FOUR times worse than politicians and economists were predicting even a few months ago!
Entire industries are in bankruptcy and the bailout-spending madness is pushing the government itself in the same direction.
It's easy to lose hope. It's easy to succumb to fear.
But when I began to see thousands upon thousands of citizen-investors like you joining with me to tell Congress to STOP THE BAILOUT MADNESS, I remembered that seed my father planted 50 years ago.
And then I remembered the lesson of the oak tree.
That's why I'm thrilled to announce that — because of your inspiring partnership with me — we have relaunched the Sound Dollar Committee! This new Committee is unique because it brings together citizen investors by the tens and hundreds of thousands united behind one clear goal ...
To keep spendaholic politicians from destroying the cornerstones of our economy — a sound dollar ... responsible government spending ... and safeguards for citizen-investors in today's hostile economic climate.
The Sound Dollar Committee stands on the shoulders of great American citizen-investors who have addressed the challenges to a sound dollar and economic integrity head-on in their generation. Now, it's our turn and the stakes could not be higher. So I invite you to join with me in this great effort.
Good luck and God bless,
Martin Weiss
