Today's Flash Back Friday comes from Episode 913, originally published in November 2017.

Jason Hartman starts off the show talking with Elisabeth Embry about how she makes her 5-year plans, and why it's important.

Then, Jason continues his conversation with former Congressman Dr. Ron Paul. The two finish up their talk by looking at why the government thinks they're the best option for many aspects in our lives, what would happen if the government got out of the way and prices reverted to normal rather than the distorted view we're getting today, and why we shouldn't expect to see inflation curbed in the near future (or ever more likely).
