According to TechFlow, on May 10, Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, criticized the Federal Reserve and central banks for manipulating interest rates on social media, calling it "price fixing" similar to a Marxist centrally planned economy. He said that such currency manipulation harms the economy and deprives individuals of their autonomy.
Former Congressman Ron Paul also criticized both parties in the United States for increasing government spending, especially the $1 trillion military budget, warning that debt and surveillance measures are pushing the United States toward centralized control.
Kiyosaki believes the solution lies in rejecting fiat currencies and turning to decentralized assets such as Bitcoin, gold, and silver to protect personal wealth from a government-controlled financial system. He believes that only by embracing decentralization can Americans escape the risk of socialist takeovers brought about by economic manipulation.
