彼得·希夫（Peter Schiff）警告说，美国经济正在迅速揭露，债务高涨，通货膨胀率上升和全身银行风险指向衰退

经济学家和黄金倡导者彼得·希夫（Peter Schiff）在4月18日在Schwab网络的一次采访中发出了可怕的警告，警告说，美国的经济政策正在为灾难性的衰退奠定基础。

Economist and gold advocate Peter Schiff issued a dire warning on Monday during an interview on the Schwab Network, saying he believes the U.S. is headed for a recession that could be worse than the Great Depression.

经济学家和黄金倡导者彼得·席夫（Peter Schiff）周一在施瓦布网络的一次采访中发出了可怕的警告，称他认为美国正前往衰退，这可能比大萧条更糟。

Schiff made the stark predictions as he discussed the economic impact of tariffs, which he slammed as a "stupid idea."

希夫（Schiff）在讨论关税的经济影响时做出了鲜明的预测，他将其视为“愚蠢的主意”。

The economist was discussing the bleak employment and economic outlook for the U.S. as a result of what he described as "tariffs, tariffs, tariffs."

由于他所说的“关税，关税，关税”，这位经济学家正在讨论美国的惨淡就业和经济前景。

Pointing out that the recession President Donald Trump inherited from his predecessor is already "much worse" and is going to get "much worse" as a result of these "misguided tariffs," Schiff said: "This is going to be the worst recession since the Great Depression. It may be worse than the Great Depression. It depends on the mistakes that we make during this recession. It’ll certainly be worse than 2008-2009, the Great Recession, and it’s probably going to include a financial crisis that will be worse than the 2008 financial crisis."

Schiff指出，经济衰退总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）从他的前任继承而来已经“更糟”，由于这些“误导关税”的结果将变得“更糟糕”，这将是自大萧条以来最糟糕的衰退。这可能比我们在这次经济衰退中遇到的误差肯定是差不多的。危机将比2008年的金融危机更糟。”

Discussing recent employment data, which some economists have highlighted as a sign of continued economic growth, Schiff argued that the labor gains were a product of rising distress among Americans, who are juggling multiple jobs and racking up credit card debt just to make ends meet.

席夫（Schiff）讨论了最近的就业数据，一些经济学家强调了经济增长的迹象，他认为劳动力收益是美国人遇到苦难的产物，他们正在兼顾多个工作并增加信用卡债务以维持生计。

However, he stated that all the jobs created last year were part-time positions filled by individuals who could no longer pay their household expenses with a single job.

但是，他说，去年创造的所有工作都是兼职职位，这些职位是由无法再用一份工作支付家庭支出的个人填补的。

"So, they went out and got a second job, but they couldn’t really make ends meet with two part-time jobs either, so they started charging everything on their credit cards. And when they couldn’t pay their credit card bills, they got a third job," explained Schiff.

“因此，他们出去了第二份工作，但他们也无法真正与两份兼职工作实现，因此他们开始在信用卡上收取所有费用。当他们无法支付信用卡账单时，他们就会得到第三笔工作，” Schiff解释说。

According to the gold advocate, many Americans are now working multiple jobs and have maxed-out credit cards, not to improve their lifestyles but simply to survive economically.

根据黄金倡导者的说法，许多美国人现在正在从事多个工作，并拥有最大的信用卡，而不是改善他们的生活方式，而只是为了在经济上生存。

But Schiff claimed that tariffs will worsen inflation by increasing the price of imported goods, leading to a collapse in retail spending, followed by "massive layoffs, bankruptcies, in the retail sector, a lot of defaults."

但是Schiff声称，关税将通过增加进口商品的价格来加剧通货膨胀，从而导致零售支出崩溃，然后“大规模裁员，破产，零售业的破产，很多违约”。

Another major concern highlighted by Schiff is the ongoing capital flight from U.S. financial assets, which he said is driving up interest rates.

席夫（Schiff）强调的另一个主要问题是美国金融资产的持续资本飞行，他说这正在提高利率。

This escalation, combined with the surging prices due to tariffs, could precipitate an “inflationary recession,” according to the economist, who elaborated that without imports, the U.S. economy would crumble within a few weeks.

经济学家说，这种升级以及由于关税的飙升，可能会引起“通货膨胀衰退”，他详细说明，如果没有进口，美国经济将在几周内崩溃。

However, he pointed out that the U.S. is becoming increasingly reliant on goods and services from other countries, and this is a direct consequence of the administration’s economic policies, which have been pushing inflation and capital out of the U.S. financial markets.

但是，他指出，美国越来越依赖其他国家的商品和服务，这是政府经济政策的直接结果，政府的经济政策一直在将通货膨胀和资本从美国金融市场赶出。

Schiff further explained that a previous trend saw monetary policy pushing inflation abroad while preserving asset prices domestically. But he noted that this pattern is now reversing.

希夫进一步解释说，以前的趋势是货币政策在国外推动通货膨胀，同时在国内保留资产价格。但是他指出，这种模式现在正在逆转。

As inflation moves from Wall Street to Main Street, it will affect both low- and high-income groups, impacting their purchasing power and ability to maintain their standard of living, the economist warned.

经济学家警告说，随着通货膨胀从华尔街转移到大街，它将影响低收入和高收入群体，从而影响他们的购买力和维持其生活水平的能力。

"He’s doing it even worse than I thought he would," said Schiff of Trump's handling of the economy.

特朗普对经济处理的处理说：“他的行为比我想象的还要糟糕。”

The economist predicts that if the Federal Reserve resumes quantitative easing, it will spark a rapid drop of 20%-30% in the dollar.

这位经济学家预测，如果美联储恢复量化宽松，这将使美元迅速下降20％-30％。

"It’s going to be an even bigger decline but, for the dollar, the worst thing that can happen is the Fed steps in and goes back to QE to bail out the economy, to bail out the bond market, to stop this coming financial crisis. If the Fed does that, the dollar is going to implode, so it could drop another 20%-30% very quickly," Schiff stated.

“这将是一个更大的下降，但是对于美元来说，最糟糕的事情可能是美联储介入，然后回到量化宽松以救助经济，以救助债券市场，停止债券市场，如果美联储这样做。

"Our entire banking system is insolvent … Every single bank in this country will fail if we have a recession with rising interest rates and that’s exactly what we’re going to have."

“我们的整个银行体​​系都是无力偿债的……如果我们有利率上升的经济衰退，这个国家的每个银行都会失败，这正是我们要拥有的。”
