In Episode 1421 I discussed both the Estonian E-Citizen Program and Ecuador’s new Digital Currency and asked a simple question, could digital currencies and the concept of E-Citizenry be used to create a virtual nation. I think this is a valuable thought experiment and I have some ideas I want to share today.  The goal is to get a discussion going about what can be done, vs. what can’t be done.  What might work vs. why nothing can work. As part of this I created a forum thread to discuss a Virtual Nation’s Constitution would be like.  There has been … Continue reading →

A Video You Should Watch and Correction to an Error

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

This post is really the correction of two errors.  One a simple oversight and the second an actual mistake. The first one is in reference to Episode 1426.  In that episode I discussed a bit more about the fear mongering around ISIS and the fact that the US created ISIS and armed and funded them.  That much of that started in Lybia and that it is why ambassador Stevens was left to die by our government.  That Stevens was more a arms dealer than an ambassador. Nothing about the above is incorrect, the problem was I mentioned a video that … Continue reading →

Episode-1427- How Much Land is “Enough”

Please Note – there was a major math error in today’s show which will create a future “Jack Was Wrong Segment”.  I don’t know why but in this show I said 208 x 4 was 2,496.  This is clearly wrong the correct number was 832. This should of made the tree counts 80 at 10 feet and 40 at 20 feet spacings.  This is what happens when you do math in your head on the fly I guess, given 208x4x3 is 2,496 I guess I was thinking in yards and talking in feet.  In a round about way I guess … Continue reading →

If You Consider Holding Bad Cops Accountable, Cop Hating, Do you Recognize the Formula you are Following?

The Survival Podcast Posted on by

I have often been accused of “bashing cops” and being a “cop hater” because about once a week on facebook I will post a video or two of abusive officers caught in the act.  In general I don’t even say much about my view when I do these posts, I simply link to the article like any other I might post. The most recent example is this article Police chief ‘shocked’ by cop interfering with man recording arrest on video. You can read the story and watch the video for yourself. The short version is cops are busting some folks … Continue reading →
