While Rogers expects governments and institutions to fail, the hosts compare the current situation to the 1857 depression and suggest the fallout may be less severe than Rogers' dire warnings.

The current era of quantitative easing is compared to the 1849 gold rush, with predictions that the eventual collapse will be a significant buying opportunity for real estate and stocks.

This historical parallel is used to discuss modern concerns regarding quantitative easing and the potential for a collapse when virtual money printing exceeds economic capacity.

Dvorak presents his thesis on 40-year and 80-year economic depression cycles, comparing the current era to the 1850s. He argues that the discovery of shale gas and oil in the U.S. is acting as a temporary wealth influx similar to the 1849 Gold Rush, potentially delaying a major crash until 2017. The discussion covers the historical depression of 1857 and a predicted global conflagration in 2020.

Dvorak compares the current economic cycle to the 1850s, noting that the 1857 depression was delayed by the influx of gold from the California Gold Rush. He argues that modern "quantitative easing" is failing to prevent a crash because the money stays with banks rather than reaching the public. The hosts discuss the undemocratic nature of the European Commission and the potential for a major economic collapse in October.

The current strategy of flooding the market with cheap money is viewed as a temporary fix that may push a major collapse from 2013 to 2017. Political implications are discussed, specifically how a Republican victory in 2012 could lead to the party being blamed for the eventual crash.
