Banks must now report cash withdrawals or deposits of $10,000 or more. Furthermore, banks must report to the government any financial behavior on your part it arbitrarily deems \"suspicious\" or \"unusual.\" The World Economic Forum and World Bank are touting the creation of an international digital currency, an increasing number of businesses and venues in the U.S. have become \"cashless\" and the devaluation of the dollar has been in full swing in recent years. Swiss America CEO Dean Heskin says we need to be aware of the campaign against cash due to current and coming policies and prepare for what is to come through our podcast, THE SECRET WAR ON CASH, powered by Swiss America.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-15T08:20:22.976464+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-secret-war-on-cash-6603370"},"episode":{"title":"War, Inflation, and the Debt Train Nobody Can Stop","slug":"war-inflation-and-the-debt-train-nobody-can-stop","published_at":"2026-05-15T11:25:01+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-secret-war-on-cash-6603370/war-inflation-and-the-debt-train-nobody-can-stop","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-secret-war-on-cash-6603370","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/war-inflation-and-the-debt-train-nobody-can-stop--72011134","audio_url":"https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72011134/secret_war_on_cash_ep_271_a.mp3","summary":"In this episode of The Secret War on Cash , Dean Heskin and Chris Agelastos examine how the war involving Iran is already increasing costs for U.S. businesses and why the price hikes seen so far may be only the early stages of a broader inflation wave. The discussion looks at reduced oil flow, delayed shipping effects, higher transportation costs, and the way those pressures spread into groceries, travel, construction materials, and everyday household goods. The episode also turns to the larger structural problem behind the headlines: America’s expanding debt burden. Dean and Chris explain that even as war-related inflation pushes higher, the debt and interest problem continues compounding in the background, making it harder for policymakers to control inflation without worsening other parts of the system. Key topics include: war-driven price increases for businesses and consumers delayed supply-chain effects from lower oil flow why small businesses often raise prices first the compounding effect of inflation and debt why interest-rate pressure no longer solves the problem cleanly how these trends fit the broader “Secret War on Cash” thesis Brought to you by Swiss America.
