Nearly 20 years after China was admitted to the World Trade Organization, China has not become more democratic or free. And Western capital has ultimately only strengthened China’s communist regime.

“We were fooling ourselves,” says Clyde Prestowitz.

Prestowitz was a leader in the first U.S. trade mission to China in 1982, and he’s served as an adviser to four presidents, both Republican and Democrat. He is the author of “The World Turned Upside Down: America, China, and the Struggle for Global Leadership.”

By investing in Chinese companies with intimate ties to the Chinese regime, companies in the free world have inadvertently strengthened “this anti-free speech, anti-liberty, anti-soul Communist Party,” Prestowitz says. “It’s about fundamental human values.”

There are still companies like American Hartford Gold, that value freedom of speech and honest discourse—and are sponsoring shows like ours.

With inflation on the rise, investing in gold is another option to diversify your assets.

American Hartford Gold is a patriotic, family-owned company that not only sells precious metals right to your front door, they can help deposit gold into a retirement account like an IRA or 401K.

They’ve got an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau, and right now they have a promotion where they will give you up to $1,500 of free silver on your first order. You can just call 855-862-3377, that’s 855-862-3377 or you can text “AMERICAN” to 6-5-5-3-2.
