The following article by Louis Rouanet was originally published at the Mises Institute FedWatch. 
Although today high levels of inequality in the United States remain a pressing concern for a large swath of the population, monetary policy and credit expansion are rarely mentioned as a likely source of rising wealth and income inequality. Focusing almost exclusively on consumer price inflation, many economists have overlooked the redistributive effects of money creation through other channels. One of these channels is asset price inflation and the growth of the financial sector.
The rise in income inequality over the past 30 years has to a significant extent been the product of monetary policies fueling a series of asset price bubbles. Whenever the market booms, the share of income going to those at the very top increases. When the boom goes bust, that share drops somewhat, but then it comes roaring back even higher with the next asset bubble.

Imagine the financial chaos that would ensue if there was a widespread, long-term, power grid failure. Business would literally halt.
Stop and think for a moment about how dependent the financial system is on computers. Banking, stock and bond trading, and the vast majority of our day-to-day transactions, rely on computer networks. Many people don't even use cash anymore. Everything is digital. We even have wholly digital currencies like Bitcoin.
We take these computer systems for granted. In reality, they put us at considerable financial risk. This vulnerability is another reason you should buy gold.
