Economics for the Rest of Us

You feel it. The economy is rigged. Here's why.

Prices keep climbing. Your paycheck doesn't. You're told the economy is "strong" but your grocery bill says otherwise. McIndustries breaks down the economics they don't teach you — inflation, the Fed, sound money, Bitcoin — in plain language, for people with real jobs.

You're not imagining it. Your dollar buys less every year.

Since 1971, the US dollar has lost over 87% of its purchasing power. Wages haven't kept up with the real cost of living. The Cantillon Effect means new money benefits those closest to the printing press first — and you're last in line. McIndustries exists to explain exactly how this works, and what you can do about it.

The ideas that explain everything.

Every piece of content is designed to give you clarity on the economic forces shaping your life.

The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; the second is war. Both bring a temporary prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin.
