This episode pulls back the curtain on one of the biggest lies in modern economics, that welfare helps the poor. In reality, every dollar that enters a government program eventually ends up in corporate hands. The rich use debt to buy assets and generate tax-free income. The poor use debt to survive and never escape it. From SNAP to Medicaid, the system recycles money upward through low wages, processed food, and pharmaceutical profits. We’ll break down how this loop works: taxpayers fund assistance programs, benefits go to workers whose employers rely on those subsidies, and the corporations collecting those dollars … Continue reading →

Bitcoin recently hit an all time high over 122,000 dollars and now has fallen to about 118,000 as I write this.  Long gone are the days of 300, 600, 6,000 or even 25,000 dollar Bitcoin, but you know what hasn’t changed, unit bias bullshit!  I heard it so many times over the years, “I wish I would have listened earlier but I missed the opportunity” and I have always responded with “no you didn’t miss it, you are missing it right now” and that too has not changed. Unit bias is where a person says “but I will never even … Continue reading →

Donald Trump hasn’t even taken power and some on the left are in full meltdown mode.  We literally have young women sterilizing themselves to protect their “reproductive rights”.  Brandon pardoned Hunter to protect himself and suddenly everyone is a legal scholar about the 5th amendment and expect that Brandon will go to prison, when he’s actually headed for an old folks home. The Orangeman is sniping off his own thin majority in the house and his cabinet appointments are a very mixed bag.  Bitcoin is ripping but can’t break the 100K ceiling just yet.  MicroStrategy is on track to own … Continue reading →

Inflation & Interest: The Heat-Humidity Parallel – Epi-3369

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 1:29:09 — 25.5MB)

In the realm of weather, we often hear the age-old adage, “it’s not the heat, it’s the humidity.” This saying, while rooted in some truth, can sometimes feel oversimplified. Indeed, a sweltering 90 degrees with high humidity might feel more oppressive than 95 degrees with low humidity. However, the reality is that both heat and humidity, individually or combined, can be perilous. They combine to create conditions that can lead to severe health risks, such as heat strokes. Drawing a parallel to our economic landscape, the dynamics of inflation and interest rates mirror the heat and humidity analogy. Individually, they … Continue reading →

The Collapse in Front of Our Eyes – Epi-3335

People often expect the collapse of society and the Western empire to occur as a single, dramatic event. One moment, everything is great; then, BOOM, it all falls apart in one fell swoop. This could be due to nuclear Armageddon, total financial implosion, a truly deadly pandemic, or anything else. Essentially, they expect it to unfold like a movie: one big event followed by total chaos. However, the history of empires and civilizations collapsing seldom aligns with this view. More often, collapse is akin to a sci-fi scenario where a ship enters the event horizon of a black hole. The … Continue reading →
