I bought my first house at 20 in 1977. I paid $32900. Two years out of high school. Went to trade school and worked nights for two years. Bought the the place I’m in now in 1983. Never owned a new car till 2000. Paid cash for it. Worked my a?! Off (two jobs) for 40+ years as a mechanic had my house and property paid off at 52. Retired comfortably at 62. This college thing is the biggest scam out there right now.
I did the same thing, worked the summers and weekends during high school. Started working the trades right after high school and continued till retirement. Bought my house three years after high school, still live in it. Made sacrifices like living out of town and working long hours. My dad taught me good work ethics and glad he did. Retired at 63 and living comfortably now.
My wife and I started out in a house trailer, worked 2 jobs each, did with very little, drove total junkie cars, no restaurants unless we worked there! With all that said I think after observing some of my friends spend their time and resources on alcohol, weed, cigarettes, bowling, etc., that was the biggest stuff we avoided and were able to retire young. Sorry to ramble
Yes regarding the college thing. 150,000 of debt for a head full in inaccurate mush!! Just educated idiots that STILL know nothing correct or how to do anything. Doesnt matter how much "they fill your head with" if its all completely wrong. These kids are being duped!!
College is a scam for most people. I agree with you. PS: I am 71, owned 3 homes now and I still work my behind off. I have a work ethic, which too many of our youth have failed to inherit or achieve.
It’s a rich man’s life anymore. Athletes, actors/actresses, government officials and lawyers get paid way too much for the amount of homeless VETERANS we have. There should be absolutely no VET without. What they have been through and done to keep US safe and free.🇺🇸🙏

Good morning Mike. I’m a subscriber from Georgia. I usually don’t comment and usually just sit back and enjoy your videos but I’m so thankful this morning for the results of the election. Just wanted to reach out and say thank you for your content. Pennsylvania and Georgia stepped up when we needed it most. It’s refreshing this morning to realize that all the God fearing people came together to stomp out a terrible movement in our great country. I’m 57 years old and do a lot of same things you do while also managing an aggregates mine. I love my country and my Savior and I appreciate your channel! There is still something about working hard and giving thanks to almighty God and hearing my national anthem that gives me chills down my spine. God bless the Hunt Man and you and all of your family!
I have been a registered democrat all my life. At 72 years young, I too am feed up with these leaders. I have never voted a straight ticket, but after this election is over, I will be changing to republican. I have been feed up for many years. I was just visiting San Angelo Texas last week. I noticed more homeless people roaming all neighbor hoods. Homelessness has increased here in western Kentucky. My neighbor is behind on their house payment by 2 months. He works all of the time, but still losing ground. With three young children, the mother is unable to work. I voting for Donald tomorrow. I didn’t see Mrs Harris on the primary ticket. I feel like that Obama has been running this country via Biden.
i owe no mortgage, no credit card debt, no automobile debt...period!!!! i have money in the bank and a personal stash as well. i do not have a college education but worked with my hands for 40 years. i agree with you totally, mike, and thank you for the stand you take and the voice you put with it!!!!! may God bless you and yours and sustain you.......g
My Dad was a Philadelphia Democrat, cop, just out of the Navy. He loved the Democrat Party until Reagan ran for President and he became a Republican. He was a staunch Republican and supported Donald Trump. He died in August 2024 at 93 years old and before he got to vote again for Donald Trump. But tomorrow I will cast my vote for Donald Trump. He would have been thrilled seeing RFK Jr align with Donald Trump, as well and JD Vance, Tulsi and Elon!!!
NAFTA killed us, I live in Central NY our mills were shut down or down sized. We had an Air Force base that NEADS is still currently operating. They closed the base and we lost about 30,000 people in our city. I watched grown men cry at Rome Cable when they were fired after working 30-40 years and lost their retirement, 401K eventually their homes. I turn 60 this month, the last 40 years I’ve thought of everything lost and it continues. Trump and his new future cabinet is the closest we’ll get to fixing this country.
I’m about 60 miles west of you. Town of about 7k. We had 7 factories (3 big ones) and an Army base. Today we have ONE factory. Army base is gone. Our second biggest employer is…… Walmart
I meant to comment on this video last night, but I have to say I AGREE with everything you said! I worked my butt off starting at 8 years old, cutting grass for people that could not get their kids to do it. I did everything I could to make money. I graduated in the spring of 1977 and bought my first car that August, a 1977 Cutlass Salon with every bell and whistle I could get. I turned 18 in October, and yes, I needed dad to sign to say I could spend my money on the car. Anyway, I just turned 65 last month. Anyway, we got married in 1985, and we were poor, but we always got the things we needed. We love watching your videos and your family. We also love seeing Hunter on the videos, even when we have to spot him by the house waiting on you, LOL! Until next time, stay safe, and may God bless your days as He always does ours! Donald and Lisa
Am I the only one who votes and walks out thinking some uninformed ignorant fool is going to cancel out my vote by not having a clue as to what they’re doing?
Nope, I think that too, but I'm also hopeful more people are waking up to see just how much the media covers and lies for a certain party, and that our government is really corrupted. I hope Trump gets so many votes that they can't rig the numbers. Already seeing some county's in certain states trying to pull a fast one. You know people are waking up when you see some blacks, hispanics, Muslims, Jews and Amish supporting Trump like never before! I'm not a GOP fan boy, but I did vote Red down the party line, and any Judge that was (D) appointed I said no on keeping them. Democrats have gone off the rails and someone needs to get us back on track. I'm MAGA for life, if you ain't a MAGA supporter you are a traitor in my book.
I am a Vietnam Vet. I passed by a house last Saturday that had signs all over the yard for Kamala, plus one in the middle proclaiming the home owner was also a Vietnam Vet. I guess I know whose vote I am cancelling. Happy to do it.
Like you said all you need to do is just look around and see what is going on. Obama sure didn't help things. Joe came in and really screwed things up. What's her face as no idea how to do anything. Can't answer a simple question. Like you said she wants to give more money away they don't have. What are they thinking. Answer is they are not thinking of the long-term out come. Trump might be a real jerk but i still think he is a better option than she ever will be. God help us.
the US today is a different country than in 1984. different population, different people, different culture, different values. its like a different world. But so is Canada and Australia, and the UK and France and Italy and Germany.... What we call "The West", with its values, traditions, religion, people and culture is almost gone. its been replaced by something else.... most of us are now minorities within our own countries and culture. many places is the US or Australia or the UK or Canada resemble Gaza, Islamabad or Damascus.. sad.
It's not gone, but as always, society develops, sometimes for something bad and sometimes for the better, but regardless, it always gets better over a longer period of time, we can sometimes wish to go back to a time that once was when we were younger but it is the new generations who decide the future, not us older generations, we have had our time and our opportunity to shape society and we have done that but that is history and others are taking over now, deal with it
I was 1st in line yesterday to vote. Got there 2 1/4 hrs ahead of opening at 1. Voted for Trump primarily and a few others. Let's just admit that this debacle CAN'T be "fixed" but about all that can be done is to try and get this somewhat under control. As far as Trump, there are things about him I don't like, but I believe in my heart he can and will help this country, but not alone. He has good peoplecready to step up and do their part. We've needed a business person in charge vs. a "politician" agreeing with everyone on everything to not upset a few instead of doing what needs to be done for the betterment of this failing country. Folks, we as a country are in a real shite hole and the current administration and what's threatening the horizon sure ain't the answer. It's going to come down to 1 thing. Do you hate or dislike Trump more than you care about this countries future and YOUR kids and grandkids future. If you don't care about your future family's future than just throw in the towel, because we WILL be done for 😢😢😢😢
Yeah, I don't like weak and insecure convicted felons making important decisions about our country. The fact that Trump's a rapist is just more reason not to vote for him.
I built my first home in 1980 at age 23 and it cost me $50,000 for the building lot and $70,000 to build a 2,700 sq-ft home. That same house today is over $1,000,000. Granted I did the framing, window installation, insulation, Shiprock (plaster back then), etc. I had a $50,000 mortgage at 12 3/4% and it was tough for sure. I love your common sense analysis of things and it resonates with me whole heartedly. As you know I'm Canadian but if I were voting as an American, I don't have any faith in Kamala. Simply put, she has been at it with Biden for almost 4 years. What's going to change under her leadership, oh wait she's going to keep taking direction from her so called same experts. On a different note how did the ceremony go? Have a blessed week :)
Yep, but I don't think Mike wants to take on the doner class, uniparty, and the lobbiest that work for them and spread golden handshakes throughout the halls of Congress.
Great articulate description of where we are right now. When Donald Trump gets elected, I will tell my Democrat friends "your welcome" because I helped save our country for all Americans. God bless you and your family 🙏
God Bless America 🇺🇸!!! We as a nation have spoken that we are tired of unsecured borders, high prices and an unsafe nation. May God right our nation and make us “Great Again”. Keep up the great videos!
I was in my early 20s. My 1st home cost me 34900. I got a life insurance policy to cover the house if something happened to me. My next home cost me 39000 less than a decade later. The home I'm in cost us 80000. The facts are that in all cases we were debt-free. No one gave us anything and we had to come up with the down payment. The interest rate on my home was over 13%. So, I am tired of hearing about the problems this generation voted in that made the economy so bad. How many times had we stated that the policies of these folks voted in would ruin the nation? Yet, somehow we who did the work and scrimped and saved are given something that is a load of BS. How many folks are going to lose their homes becasue of the policies of those in power becasue of home insurance and huge increases in taxes? All becasue of those that wanted a mentally challenged individual and not the Orange Man. 😠
@@ginmar8134 And you think Kamala is going to lower YOUR taxes? Trump and Elon Musk are going to cut the size of government. That alone will amount to a tax cut. Lower energy prices through increased production. No electric car mandates. When Trump cut tax rates before, revenues collected went up. cutting more regulations will make a difference too. Finally, remember this; You do not tax corporations and come out ahead. They just pass those increased expenses along to the consumer.
Our Government shouldn't be able to go into deep deep debit they can't pay back! The system needs a serious correction! Mike is 100% right ! We either fix it now or we suffer and fix it later! We can't pass the Buck anymore!
@ginmar8134 Are you serious? They pay property tax everything else is a tax write off! Look at all the people they employ! You make 0 sense! Democrats Republicans independents all follow the same tax laws! If your not happy start a LLC S corporation and get the same tax benefits as Mark Cuban and Trump gets!
Mike, I watch you because you are real. Sadly, my health has deteriorated so much that doing most things is nearly impossible. Yet, I've lived long enough to know real folks who are good and the ones who are shysters. The facts are that our government hates us because we are finding out so much they have done to enrich themselves at the cost of the nation. I could tell you stories about our failed judicial system, unions, etc that it seems so many just ignore or simply dismiss. How many times in the recent past have we been called liars becasue we told folks bad things were going to happen if they did "X". Yet, we were ignored and told to sit down and shut up or they would make an example out of us.
Mike, my dad told me back in junior high school "You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make them drink..." I have had that bit of advice resonate in various situations throughout my life. This is one of those situations. Voters will vote for who they typically vote for 95% of the time, and while I too hope Trump is re-elected, there are a lot of democrats that will be voting for Kamala whether they like her or not. However, there are promising signs that he will prevail... but like a friend of mine said, I don't think she will win the election, but the democrats will do everything they can to ensure Trump isn't elected. Our Country has been on the wrong track for many years and I sure hope we can turn things around now while we have this opportunity. Love the channel, your advice and ideas, keep them coming! You guys take care up there!
Graduated in 1978 went straight into the Army for 3 years. Did a semester of college then took a faster path and went to Computer Learning Center in downtown Philadelphia, PA. Got married in 1985 and bought my first home in 1986 at age 26 for $52,000 and first new car in 1987 for $6,500 (Plymouth Reliant). Worked in IT for 40 years, paid off my second home in 2007 at 47. Retired at 63 in 2023, raised six kids with 12 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. My kids have the same work ethic and path. However, my one daughter I paid cash for her college degree as a Social Worker from Slippery Rock University of PA who has earned her Masters Degree as well; something way more useful than Gender Studies. I do not see this type of direction in most of Millennials, Gen X, and Gen Z.
I couldn't agree more with the thoughts you laid out, Mike. I have voted for Republican candidates since I was eligible, with Ronald Reagan being the first. I am a veteran of 13 plus years and did not even feel financially confident buying a home in any of the states where I was stationed/lived in. I had to leave active duty and spend several years in the civilian world to develop the proper income for that privilege. A leopard can't change its spots, as the saying goes, and we will only get more of the same money sucking activity we endured for the last four years if the vice president is elected. I have heard the argument that she was not in charge, so it was President Biden who actually accelerated the financial and national security spiral. I must inject the vice president is complicit in all that happened. She was in the room when major policy decisions were made. For the Democratic party, there is now some sort of awakening to the problems that must be corrected, and they are trying to force the vice president on us as the savior, yet, again, we come back to the adage "a leopard can't change its spots" and the problems they created can only be resolved by a passionate, non-political business-minded individual such as former President Trump. This is the choice. Let's pray for the best outcome here, for a prosperous and secure nation sooner rather than later.
Another great video Mike. I'm 77, graduated high school in 1966, got in a couple of years of college (didn't graduate), join the Army and stayed in for 23 years. In the process of living on next to nothing, money wise, got married and helped raise two daughters. We bought our first and only house in 1988 for less than $50,000. I agree with you 100% on your political views. Every vote count's and everyone that is LEAGELY able to vote needs to do so. Every vote count's weather it is for city, county, state or federal, we get who or what we vote for. Harris with her false promises and outright lies will help destroy this great nation. Everyone in my family will be voting for President Trump .
I am Fired up Mike , so I ordered two bags of fire starter. My wife and I voted Friday. We do not believe SHE Offers anything to the country. Thanks for saying what you really feel.
Voting for Kamala after 4 years of Biden isn't going to help anything or change nothing for the better. It's kind of like shitting your pants and then go change your shirt.
I'm kind of late in viewing and responding to this video but Mike you're Spot on in your thinking. I've worked in a few different fields from Grocery Retail/Wholesale, the Auto industry ( Retail, Commercial and Government Contracts) and and finally retired in a government position. What surprise me the most when transitioning from retail supply side to government was the amount of WASTE in the government sector . I had a very substantial budget for my department and I prided myself in keeping my fleet in top shape. When it came time to review our budgets I was always struck that no matter how well the fleet was maintained and operational , Even though I had for instance 3 pieces of equipment in top notch shape, my budget required me to buy new to satisfy the budget or lose my expense . In other words buy it whether you need it or not it's part of the budget! Our government operates on this principal that if you have a budget for it but don't need it buy it anyway ! THere is no telling how many abandoned buildings the government owns and not in use but they still maintain the idea they have to keep them instead of returning them to the open market. Since wwII our government had found out that war is profitable and there's no telling how many congressmen are investing in the industry that supplies that machine. I've always said it takes a businessmen to build a successful business but only government can cripple it with regulations and laws. Sorry to be so long winded but I think you understand my own disappointment in our current situation.
I'm glad you went back 40 years but i would also argue the rise in living costs has massively went up over the past 4 years. This is why these days most young people 18-35 years old live with their family members and people over 65 can not retire. This should not be America. If they didn't force Trump out 4 years this would not be the case!
I agree with you 10,000 percent Mike, but one thing no one takes into consideration is how dumb people are with their money now a days. out parents and grandparents would never buy a home that has a payment that's 50% of their income or a car 2-3 times their yearly income. i believe we could control a lot of this inflation if people were not so stupid with their money and didn't try to keep up with the jones at every turn. its not the root cause but its defiantly a huge factor for sure. Have a Great day and here's to tomorrow and making America great again! Trump 2024!
I think pretty much the way you do. I just don't like big government. Big government causes all the problems that we have now. When we have small government, and things are left up to the private sector; businesses grow, inflation goes down, jobs are created from expanding businesses, people have more money. Things are much better. I also don't want our rights taken away. But before a lot of this can happen, we have to get an government administration to make some changes in our government policies. Right now, in our case, a lot of changes have to be made. Biden and Kamala have been a disaster and Kamala hasn't said anything about how she is going to fix the economy. Only a lot of word salad. If you have paid close enough attention, you will have noticed that Obama has been right there behind the scenes. When Obama went into office he was worth about 3billion. When he left the presidency, he was worth 54 trillion. That's 54 times more than any other president. You have to ask yourself, how can this be? I think with Biden's health decline and Kamala's record, I think Obama is still up there calling the shots. I think that Trump is going to be our only chance at getting our government back to some control that will work for us, the people. I've prayed so much for our country. I love our freedoms,our Constitution, and I want it not for myself, but for all and future generations so that they can have some of the same. Thank you Mike Morgan for speaking out with your honest opinion. It all makes just perfect common sense. Again, I appreciate you and thanks!
I bought my first house in 1974 at the age of 24 paid 37k for a 3 bdrm 1.5 bathrooms with an unfinished basement with a 10k sq ft of yard on a culdesac. I think it sold for 62k that my wife got after the divorce. I also worked 2 jobs one at a bank and the other as a convenience store night manager. I inherited "The Money Pit" from my parents after they passed and every time I fix one thing I find 15 more to get done all seemingly urgent. lol I just find it hard to keep up and it is not getting easier but the current mtg is 122k and it is supposedly worth 705k from my mtg comp wanting me to increase my loan. Thank you no! Keep up the good info and you are mostly correct as far as the economy. It really doesn't matter as the overall message you gave was the belief that you see where the country is going. I also share your look to the future but that is why we all have our own life that brought us to our current path. A one take great video!!
@@Ikkeligeglad selected, not elected, last one was stolen and they are doing their best to steal this one. How many States will suddenly stop counting with Trump ahead by a mile and all of a sudden at 4am a big delivery of Kamala votes will appear,.
@@Ikkeligeglad was he? Or was he moved in, to try and get O'bummer's third term? Funny, about harris they couldn't tell you what a woman was, now "she'll be the first female president". This group, the democrats are out of their ever living mind... On your videos Mike. Keep on speaking your mind. We need more people doing so.
There are a lot of people that feel just like you Mike and I am one of them. The big machine put Kamala out there without one vote from the people. We must elect Trump or our country may go bust before we get another chance. Congress should be required to spend less than we take in. We have to live within our means and the government should also. I can coast to the end also but I have children and grandchildren to worry about. All the best from Greensboro NC. VOTE TRUMP
Nothing but a super major crisis will change anything. The gov will continue printing paper, calling it money, and expect you to take it in exchange for labor or product. We need a gold standard.
I watch your channel for its entertainment value. Not to hear you spout your opinion. I would prefer you to state your opinion on your couch in your own living room instead of trying to convince the entire viewership to agree with your opinion. That’s not going to happen. You’re only going to reinforce the beliefs of those who already agree with you. That is only MY OPINION. Given with all due respect.
Those that don’t have debt end up paying for those that cannot pay their debts, they give credit cards to people that don’t earn enough to service that credit card or bank loans.
Yea like student loans, they will lend a kid 200k with no income for them to go to college for whatever they want, they wouldn’t qualify for a used car loan
Productivity/pay ratio is another issue. Production is up 248%, while pay has increased only 146%. Debt is slavery. If you owe someone, they control you.
Mike great video. I feel the same. I graduated from H.S. in 1978 then went to Diesel school. I swung a wrench working on cars in my parents garage for people since I was 15. I bought my first truck new 1978 K20 chevy (4 x4) and including tax the truck was $7450. 00. It's amazing. We have bigger issues ahead with supply chain problems. I've had long conversations with manufacturers and young salespeople. I talk about the issues at hand not having a skilled work force to replace all the guys that are retiring that are my age. I am the generator sales and rental business here in New Jersey. We do some big generators for campuses hospitals large facilities meeting generators that are 2000kw and larger. Machines like these are 2 million dollars a piece end up depending on what you order both from Caterpillar in from Cummins; If I put an order in for a machine that size today, the wait time is usually about 22 or 23 months. There telling us right now from either company. They don't have the workforce to run enough plants to make enough of the big engines that go in is giant machines to handle the demand. A whole topic the educational workforce could be had by you. For the last thirty or forty years everybody was told that if they didn't go to college they couldn't make a good living or wouldn't amount to anything. No, everybody went to college, got useless basket weaving degrees, that are useless in the workforce. And now they have tons of college debt. Most of the high schools have gotten rid of their trades classes even cosmetology classes for women getting into the certain other businesses that are using everyday life. Things like welders, electricians, plumbers, carpenters, every one of the unions all over the place have programs in place and recruiting begging people to come and work and they'll pay for school. They'll pay to train you and give you a guaranteed job and a serious wage. This is 30 years worth the missing workforce won't be repaired or recovered in our lifetime. It would take a concerted effort of our educational system, the government, and people to think about things that need to be made. As I was growing up in Cleveland Ohio I watched over the years as the machine shops one of the time we're sold and auctioned off and the old Bridgeport lathes were shipped overseas to China and so went those jobs that we're all successful and that supported the auto industry in northern Ohio and Michigan. None of these educational Courses are ever available in high school anymore. All the current trade schools that are open right now are packed and can't train enough kids fast enough for the demand. I can't get switch gear, I can't get Transformers. They're all telling me months and months to wait for things that I need for my industry. I have paying customers with briefcases full of cash that can't even spend it with me because I can't get them what they need. And this is nationwide from every manufacturer. It's just a mess. This supply chain issue is the next big problem without having a work force to replace me. I have no idea how Kamala going to build all these houses when there's nobody to build them.Try calling the contractor and find out how long it takes to build a new home nowadays. Ok I talked enough. Im with you 100% in your thinking. Keep up the good content. My best to the family. Mark Johnson President Atlantic Power & Equipment
Mike….only one more day of useless political ads on tv. Praise the lord. Maybe we can get back to trying to get happy about day to day living together and being useful people?
I'm with you Mike you are spot on. I just can't rap my head around the people out there that can't see the forest through the trees. Ever since Covid I can't believe the stupidity I'm sorry 😢 but it sure brought it all out.
Absolutely agree 100% with you on that! There are some die hard democrats that would vote for Osama Bin Laden himself if he ran on the democratic ticket and those kind of people drag us all down!!
Hello Mike my name is Larry and Even though I watch RUclips videos your's being one I very seldom comment on them but I felt I had to comment on this one and just to say you are spot on in what you said. I am 10 years older than you so I am retired. I am from Wisconsin so a swing state like you and I traveled all over the USA when I worked for GP a paper mill so there were times when I did not vote as I just did not care. But now that I am retired I guess maybe I spend to much time watching TV so I have paid I lot more attention to this upcoming election. PS. I refuse to watch national media although I quit watching them maybe 10 years ago I do watch a lot streaming stuff like RUclips and Rumble. Back in the late 60s my father used to tell us don't trust the government as they are crooked or his favorite line was if they are a politician if their lips are moving they are lying to you but Donald Trump is different as he is a business man not a career politician. That's why even though back in the day I did vote for H Ross. As he to was a business man though I knew for him running as an independent was going to be tough I felt I had to cast my vote for him not these career politician's. Even though Trump is running as a GOP I don't feel that he is a true Republican witch is good.
Oh wow I'm 667 comentor and yes I'm superstitious...i believe you were experiencing great consternation concerning your comments.... You are spot on on all of them too...i have some very educated friends / retired professionals who have voted for Harris...these are people whom i love to the moon and back and ive known them for over 60yrs... I know the race is to close to call but from what I'm watching and hearing and these are people who do this for a living...from what I have digested from them Trump may have already WON...I know I know tomorrow is election Day I'm a traditionalist so I'm voting tomorrow....but Tuesday numbers of Republican voting should humble the democratics but it won't... This is NOT Trumps first RODEO like you I believe he will work hard for us... I pray to God everyday for a lot of reasons and included are prayers for Our Country 🙏
Mike, many thanks to you and your fellow Pennsylvanians who did the right thing on Election Day to put the U.S. back on the right path. You are great Americans !
Did the $25,000 down payment grant get passed? The Downpayment Toward Equity Act was introduced in Congress in 2021. As of November 2024, it has not yet been passed into law.
They are just trying to buy votes with no thought on what it will do to the economy and the national debt. We need to mandate economic courses in High School so by the time kids can vote they actually have a basic understanding of how money works.
Mike, 👋👋👋 great job and on point!!! I'll try to keep this brief. Speaking of wasting or not using our money wisely. Why do we have approx. 750 military bases in over 80 countries? Close them down and bring the men and women home to lock down our borders. Why don't we have bullet trains from Maine to California (i don't know why anyone would want to spend money in California)? I rode on a bullet train in Japan in 1985 that went over 200 mph and my drink never moved on my table. The bottom line of this reply is why doesn't Wash. DC take care of America first - infrastructure, health care, etc? We haven't seen hard times but I'm afraid it's coming!!!
I will pay good money to anyone on the inside who can send a video of Pelosi having a private temper tantrum meltdown tomorrow evening! TRUMP VANCE 2024 🇺🇸
I've been working the "early voting" polls in PA, and will be at the polls from 9am to close. It is encouraging to see so many young people energized to vote for Trump and his team. The 18-25 crowd isn't as stupid as some people think, they have more to lose than the rest of us. I'll be up all night watching this unfold. Say a prayer, repeat. Lets go!
Yesterday I unsubscribed from another channel because they were Harris supporters. I'm not going to listen to anyone who supports the mess we've had for the past few years. At this point it's good vs evil and we have to take a stand! Thanks for being brave and speaking out about this.
Mike, you're correct with the numbers but you're over simplifying the macro economics. Here are just a few of the complications you are overlooking. Too many parents push their kids into college without looking at the return on investment resulting in increased student demand and inflated tuition. House square footage and options has increased over the years. Households eat much more outside of the home. Vehicles have too many options driving up cost and complexity for insurance and repairs. In general, you cannot underestimate the average consumers WANT to spend.Etc. etc.
@@OutdoorsWithTheMorgansYes, that's also an issue. That's the point I'm trying to make with only a few sentences. It's more complicated than you originally stated. Another example is Healthcare which also expanded quite a lot since 1984. We now have prescribed meds and services with such buildings on nearly every block. (Or tampons in boys restrooms???) Complex issues require complex solutions. But don't fear, I'm with you patriot. I'm not blind to the radical beliefs of platitudes of hope and joy. Nor do I blindly support comments from a buffoon. But logic directs me to the lesser of two evils. We're counting on your neighbors to pull us in a new direction. No pressure...👍
He said 36 trillion less then no money. 😂 thank you for saying the quite part out loud. Homeless man has 36 trillion more than the government! @42 years old. This was my first and last vote!
It's interesting that when a bank gets in trouble with a borrower that can't pay they sometimes work out a plan where payments are suspended for a time with no interest to allow the borrower time to get back to work or recover from sickness, etc. Why not tell the creditors of our country that the country is "sick" and that we will need 4 years without interest or payments. After that we will resume payments. During that 4 years, the country will curtail spending and use the money we raise through taxes that is not committed to social security and a couple other things to reduce the debt. ALL politicians will serve their terms at minimum wage with no special benefits. Lifetine free benefits after they retire, get unelected or leave for any reason are limited to the average of regular workers. No more of politics as a lifetime job with unlimited benefits. Presidents get one 6 year term only to prevent unending campaigns for reelection. Term limits for all politicians with pay at minimum wage. Jail for any corruption. And some fiscal restraint. We stop funding other countries.
I can guarantee you wages are not keeping up with rising costs. One of two things will happen Tuesday (or when it's decided) If an 'R' wins the 'D's' will riot. If a 'D' wins the 'R's' will put their heads down, work some OT to pay for the rising Taxes.
I liked your video, the explanation on the rimes and reasons that the state of your country is currently in. I could write pages on agreement and disagreement for the explanations, but as I'm from Scotland I feel i don't have the right. However I would like to give just a couple things said to me in the past that I feel you may take onboard, an old friend told me, if I had 7 truck and 2 were idle then the 5 working trucks will be able to cover the cost of the 2 idle trucks, but if you have 5 idle trucks then there is no way the 2 working trucks can cover the costs, which leads to borrowing costs to keep thigs going which is false. Therefore it's a matter governments all over the world take on borrowing as a short term fix, but in fact they are making it worse for the hard working public. My second point is, if I have a chain with all the links being equal in size and strength then each link shares the load equally, but when you get a link that is much bigger in size and strength (Banks) then the rest of the chain becomes weak and is at the mercy of the big link. You cannot have the normal work force not working and depending on banks to bail them out.
I have heard that line since 1992 when I was 14 years old. The same thing was said, and we are all still Americans. If you don't like the results, leave.
@@megamike4357 Am I hearing an "American" tell an American it's not ok to disagree with results and hope for change? Sounds pretty un-American there, Mr. "American".
Agreed… MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION OF OUR LIVES AND YOUR CHILD’S, AND GRANDCHILDREN’S. A vote for Kamala is a vote for the NWO and 3rd world Communism coming to your doorstep.
@clamdigr no, that's not at all the point I was making. I was stating the phase has been said for every election. I did als say If you can't handle the outcome, maybe look in the mirror. You might realize how selfish you are.
Hello Mike, WOW, that was like me giving a talk to myself in the mirror. I knew you were our kind of people, seeing her reaction, when Melissa found that Bible in the dump trailer you bought years ago. Jesus Christ said that "The LOVE of money is the root of all evil." But seeing the train coming and being able to get off the tracks are two different things. Two things: You have just been inducted into my personal League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. It is a small list of very worthy people. We see what you see. I recently heard a man say; "People can vote themselves into socialism but history tells us they have to shoot their way out." God forbid! Know this; you have family south of Pittsburgh, but we've never met. Shalom/gw. PS. We are Christians. Shalom is a Hebrew word asking God to give you all of the blessings he could possibly imagine. I've been using it as a closing for 30 years.❤
Mike, I loved your comparisons of prices of the '80s to '24s. If you want to go a step farther, look at the prices a farmer can get for a bushel of corn (56 lbs) in the 80's compared to today. Our local elevator is giving $3.51 today, that's lower than the '80s. Their basis is 0.75 (basis) below the CBOT (Chicago Board of Trade). Soybeans basis is -0.99, at $9.05.
Yet it has been the USA that has used OUR TAX MONEY to foot the bills for ALL OF THE WORLD! We ask where our tax money has gone. It sure is not back into our hands! American Veterans receive less care than ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS! And where has FEMA, and other government agencies been in helping those folks affected by hurricane Helene??? The United States is the LAUGHING STOCK of other world governments!!! In my 68 years I would have NEVER GUESSED that we would be in this situation!
Mike, I’m definitely voting for Donald Trump. I agree with you 100%about the media. You are right about Harris not answering questions. She just says a bunch of words and all around the question. I enjoy your channel very very much and I also enjoy hearing your opinion. I’m not going anywhere, I look forward to your next video. Thanks Mike for being you.
Well Mike, I was just a little disappointed when I went into vote,, I couldn’t find your name on the ballot,, so I did the next best thing, I voted for Trump,,, thank you for your great videos and thank you for your honesty, I know you kept saying,”this is just my opinion”, well your opinion was dead on,,,, in my opinion…
I graduated in 83 and agree with you 1000%. I'm a double transplant guy and my working days are over. I worry about my son daughter in law and two grandsons future. I hope I never find out just how high they can tax us. 40% is way to much already. I'm excited to see how the Trumps team changes. But I too am a realist. Madison and Milwaukee have millions of voters. That makes it tough. Thanks for doing this Mike.
They made a turbo in 4 cylinder I thought they were six cylinders but idk your must be right because you don’t speak on stuff you don’t know about but I bet it was nice ima look them up
1983-1988 t-bird was available with a 2.3 liter, cast iron inline 4 cylinder with turbo. I retired from the AF in 87 and wanted one of those so bad, but with new wife and family, retired and new job in the works the paid for 83 Accord looked better.
@ damn I thought they only put turbos in six cylinder vehicles that’s how much I know but 83 was when I was born I’d like to get one but they are probably few and far in between
@@MrSteeDoo ahhhh the typical Democrat speaks. You can go back to the beginning of this administration and you could spend hours listening to the democrats accuse Republicans of what they're doing. It definitely applies with your statement. Harris has the intellectual capacity of a 10 year old. That incompetent fool Biden has the intellectual capacity of a 5 year old.
Hi Mike. You're right. It's a" machine of being indebt." Personally. I don't think ANYONE can fix. It's going to interesting. How it all pans out. We'll see. I still respect you Mike as a person. We'll see the outcome. Say Hi to Melissa, Melissa's dad, Eva, Hunter, Levi, Tyler, & Hannah. Have a good Monday evening the 4th. 🥰🙂😉👍❤️💜🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
We are 55 years into our current monetary system. This system started in 1970. This system is based on debt. Debt creates money. Debt also counters capital. Most monetary systems last around 70 years. Ours may last that long. If it does the last 15 years will be more eventful and exciting than the first 15 years which finished around 1984. It is fairly probable one day debt will swallow all of the capital. The system will then collapse. You do not learn this in economic or history classes in university or colleges.
Great video and information, Mike. They want us to own nothing and be happy. One of the many things Chris and I like/respect about you is your thirst for knowledge, truth and doing the work to find it. It isn’t always good news not comfortable news. The list is long on how they’ve done all of this. I graduated high school May 1984. Chris I discuss often on how everything has changed since. Too large of government partnered with their spending and money printing, partnered with people wearing rose colored glasses.
Thanks for the insight Mike, I wholeheartedly agree with you. I voted a early a couple of days ago, I urge those who haven't voted to get off the couch and go to the polls tomorrow and cast your vote for Freedom, vote for Trump!
Some of my coworkers are paying for a $80k truck, 50k car, and a $350k DR Horton Home on a half acre. Begging for overtime to make payments. I’m glad I live simple and debt free. I couldn’t imagine being in the amount of debt people are in.
Over 2K comments so if you actually get to read this… Mike, you’re spot on - HOWEVER - you are looking at symptoms, not root cause. I started to read “The Harbinger” by Jonathan Cahn and am 2/3 through. I PROMISE YOU that if you read it, you’ll never forget it and you will understand why the world is the way that it is now. Love y’all, Marcus back in Chesapeake VA.
My grandson is a United States Marine at the age of 20. I can't mention his job in this forum, but I pray daily that Trump is his Commander in Chief...not Harris, so his chances of being deployed to "hot spots" around the world are not as likely. I know how I'm voting.
America has a chance now to rebuild,a nation for all the people standing together means a solid crust with all the cracks fixed, remember we are all brothers and sisters from Adam and Eve,
We desperately need Voter Reform . In my opinion to have the right to vote one should in some capacity be a CONTRIBUTOR to the System . A man who rises at 4:00am to milk then on to tend the fields and feed 1000s should have a stronger vote than an Inner-city Welfare recipient ....... THIS is why our Democracy is failing !!!
I bought my first house at 20 in 1977. I paid $32900. Two years out of high school. Went to trade school and worked nights for two years. Bought the the place I’m in now in 1983. Never owned a new car till 2000. Paid cash for it. Worked my a?! Off (two jobs) for 40+ years as a mechanic had my house and property paid off at 52. Retired comfortably at 62. This college thing is the biggest scam out there right now.
I did the same thing, worked the summers and weekends during high school. Started working the trades right after high school and continued till retirement. Bought my house three years after high school, still live in it. Made sacrifices like living out of town and working long hours. My dad taught me good work ethics and glad he did. Retired at 63 and living comfortably now.
My wife and I started out in a house trailer, worked 2 jobs each, did with very little, drove total junkie cars, no restaurants unless we worked there! With all that said I think after observing some of my friends spend their time and resources on alcohol, weed, cigarettes, bowling, etc., that was the biggest stuff we avoided and were able to retire young. Sorry to ramble
@@kevinmiller956 My parents always said, no one has ever died from hard work. Kids today to lazy to get out of the house and scared when they do.
Yes regarding the college thing. 150,000 of debt for a head full in inaccurate mush!! Just educated idiots that STILL know nothing correct or how to do anything. Doesnt matter how much "they fill your head with" if its all completely wrong. These kids are being duped!!
College is a scam for most people. I agree with you. PS: I am 71, owned 3 homes now and I still work my behind off. I have a work ethic, which too many of our youth have failed to inherit or achieve.

Good morning Mike. I’m a subscriber from Georgia. I usually don’t comment and usually just sit back and enjoy your videos but I’m so thankful this morning for the results of the election. Just wanted to reach out and say thank you for your content. Pennsylvania and Georgia stepped up when we needed it most. It’s refreshing this morning to realize that all the God fearing people came together to stomp out a terrible movement in our great country. I’m 57 years old and do a lot of same things you do while also managing an aggregates mine. I love my country and my Savior and I appreciate your channel! There is still something about working hard and giving thanks to almighty God and hearing my national anthem that gives me chills down my spine. God bless the Hunt Man and you and all of your family!
Thanks for the comment. Appreicate you being here
I have been a registered democrat all my life. At 72 years young, I too am feed up with these leaders. I have never voted a straight ticket, but after this election is over, I will be changing to republican. I have been feed up for many years. I was just visiting San Angelo Texas last week. I noticed more homeless people roaming all neighbor hoods. Homelessness has increased here in western Kentucky. My neighbor is behind on their house payment by 2 months. He works all of the time, but still losing ground. With three young children, the mother is unable to work. I voting for Donald tomorrow. I didn’t see Mrs Harris on the primary ticket.

NAFTA killed us, I live in Central NY our mills were shut down or down sized. We had an Air Force base that NEADS is still currently operating. They closed the base and we lost about 30,000 people in our city. I watched grown men cry at Rome Cable when they were fired after working 30-40 years and lost their retirement, 401K eventually their homes. I turn 60 this month, the last 40 years I’ve thought of everything lost and it continues. Trump and his new future cabinet is the closest we’ll get to fixing this country.
Rome Cable was a good customer of the company I worked for on Grand Island NY. The impact of The De-Industrialization of America was and is huge.
My oldest was born on Griffiss AFB. Hell of a cold December that year!
I’m about 60 miles west of you. Town of about 7k. We had 7 factories (3 big ones) and an Army base. Today we have ONE factory. Army base is gone. Our second biggest employer is…… Walmart
Mike you are one of a few who have the guts to speak up for common sense and what is right. Don’t sweat the small stuff.
I used to come to Rome from San Antonio to perform aircraft work and stay at the Beeches Inn. Loved my time there…..it’s all closed now.
I meant to comment on this video last night, but I have to say I AGREE with everything you said! I worked my butt off starting at 8 years old, cutting grass for people that could not get their kids to do it. I did everything I could to make money. I graduated in the spring of 1977 and bought my first car that August, a 1977 Cutlass Salon with every bell and whistle I could get. I turned 18 in October, and yes, I needed dad to sign to say I could spend my money on the car. Anyway, I just turned 65 last month. Anyway, we got married in 1985, and we were poor, but we always got the things we needed. We love watching your videos and your family. We also love seeing Hunter on the videos, even when we have to spot him by the house waiting on you, LOL! Until next time, stay safe, and may God bless your days as He always does ours!

Am I the only one who votes and walks out thinking some uninformed ignorant fool is going to cancel out my vote by not having a clue as to what they’re doing?
Nope, I think that too, but I'm also hopeful more people are waking up to see just how much the media covers and lies for a certain party, and that our government is really corrupted. I hope Trump gets so many votes that they can't rig the numbers. Already seeing some county's in certain states trying to pull a fast one. You know people are waking up when you see some blacks, hispanics, Muslims, Jews and Amish supporting Trump like never before! I'm not a GOP fan boy, but I did vote Red down the party line, and any Judge that was (D) appointed I said no on keeping them. Democrats have gone off the rails and someone needs to get us back on track. I'm MAGA for life, if you ain't a MAGA supporter you are a traitor in my book.
Nope, that's exactly how all voters feel on both sides haha
You’re not alone.
I am a Vietnam Vet. I passed by a house last Saturday that had signs all over the yard for Kamala, plus one in the middle proclaiming the home owner was also a Vietnam Vet. I guess I know whose vote I am cancelling. Happy to do it.
Like you said all you need to do is just look around and see what is going on. Obama sure didn't help things. Joe came in and really screwed things up. What's her face as no idea how to do anything. Can't answer a simple question. Like you said she wants to give more money away they don't have. What are they thinking. Answer is they are not thinking of the long-term out come. Trump might be a real jerk but i still think he is a better option than she ever will be. God help us.
Can't count either Bush as conservative!
True. They were both globalist warmongers
I am ashamed that I used to support those "new world order" , globalist a$$holes.
the US today is a different country than in 1984. different population, different people, different culture, different values. its like a different world. But so is Canada and Australia, and the UK and France and Italy and Germany.... What we call "The West", with its values, traditions, religion, people and culture is almost gone. its been replaced by something else.... most of us are now minorities within our own countries and culture. many places is the US or Australia or the UK or Canada resemble Gaza, Islamabad or Damascus.. sad.
It's not gone, but as always, society develops, sometimes for something bad and sometimes for the better, but regardless, it always gets better over a longer period of time, we can sometimes wish to go back to a time that once was when we were younger but it is the new generations who decide the future, not us older generations, we have had our time and our opportunity to shape society and we have done that but that is history and others are taking over now, deal with it

I was 1st in line yesterday to vote. Got there 2 1/4 hrs ahead of opening at 1. Voted for Trump primarily and a few others. Let's just admit that this debacle CAN'T be "fixed" but about all that can be done is to try and get this somewhat under control. As far as Trump, there are things about him I don't like, but I believe in my heart he can and will help this country, but not alone. He has good peoplecready to step up and do their part. We've needed a business person in charge vs. a "politician" agreeing with everyone on everything to not upset a few instead of doing what needs to be done for the betterment of this failing country. Folks, we as a country are in a real shite hole and the current administration and what's threatening the horizon sure ain't the answer.
It's going to come down to 1 thing. Do you hate or dislike Trump more than you care about this countries future and YOUR kids and grandkids future. If you don't care about your future family's future than just throw in the towel, because we WILL be done for 😢😢😢😢
Yeah, I don't like weak and insecure convicted felons making important decisions about our country. The fact that Trump's a rapist is just more reason not to vote for him.
I built my first home in 1980 at age 23 and it cost me $50,000 for the building lot and $70,000 to build a 2,700 sq-ft home. That same house today is over $1,000,000. Granted I did the framing, window installation, insulation, Shiprock (plaster back then), etc. I had a $50,000 mortgage at 12 3/4% and it was tough for sure. I love your common sense analysis of things and it resonates with me whole heartedly. As you know I'm Canadian but if I were voting as an American, I don't have any faith in Kamala. Simply put, she has been at it with Biden for almost 4 years. What's going to change under her leadership, oh wait she's going to keep taking direction from her so called same experts. On a different note how did the ceremony go? Have a blessed week :)

Thank you Pennsylvania!
God Bless America 🇺🇸!!! We as a nation have spoken that we are tired of unsecured borders, high prices and an unsafe nation. May God right our nation and make us “Great Again”. Keep up the great videos!
I was in my early 20s. My 1st home cost me 34900. I got a life insurance policy to cover the house if something happened to me. My next home cost me 39000 less than a decade later. The home I'm in cost us 80000. The facts are that in all cases we were debt-free. No one gave us anything and we had to come up with the down payment. The interest rate on my home was over 13%. So, I am tired of hearing about the problems this generation voted in that made the economy so bad. How many times had we stated that the policies of these folks voted in would ruin the nation? Yet, somehow we who did the work and scrimped and saved are given something that is a load of BS. How many folks are going to lose their homes becasue of the policies of those in power becasue of home insurance and huge increases in taxes? All becasue of those that wanted a mentally challenged individual and not the Orange Man. 😠

Why would I believe that?You do know that trump was president once before, right?@@ginmar8134
@@ginmar8134 And you think Kamala is going to lower YOUR taxes? Trump and Elon Musk are going to cut the size of government. That alone will amount to a tax cut. Lower energy prices through increased production. No electric car mandates. When Trump cut tax rates before, revenues collected went up. cutting more regulations will make a difference too. Finally, remember this; You do not tax corporations and come out ahead. They just pass those increased expenses along to the consumer.
Our Government shouldn't be able to go into deep deep debit they can't pay back! The system needs a serious correction! Mike is 100% right ! We either fix it now or we suffer and fix it later! We can't pass the Buck anymore!

Democrats Republicans independents all follow the same tax laws! If your not happy start a LLC S corporation and get the same tax benefits as Mark Cuban and Trump gets!
Mike, I watch you because you are real. Sadly, my health has deteriorated so much that doing most things is nearly impossible. Yet, I've lived long enough to know real folks who are good and the ones who are shysters. The facts are that our government hates us because we are finding out so much they have done to enrich themselves at the cost of the nation. I could tell you stories about our failed judicial system, unions, etc that it seems so many just ignore or simply dismiss. How many times in the recent past have we been called liars becasue we told folks bad things were going to happen if they did "X". Yet, we were ignored and told to sit down and shut up or they would make an example out of us.
Mike, my dad told me back in junior high school "You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make them drink..." I have had that bit of advice resonate in various situations throughout my life. This is one of those situations. Voters will vote for who they typically vote for 95% of the time, and while I too hope Trump is re-elected, there are a lot of democrats that will be voting for Kamala whether they like her or not. However, there are promising signs that he will prevail... but like a friend of mine said, I don't think she will win the election, but the democrats will do everything they can to ensure Trump isn't elected. Our Country has been on the wrong track for many years and I sure hope we can turn things around now while we have this opportunity. Love the channel, your advice and ideas, keep them coming! You guys take care up there!
Graduated in 1978 went straight into the Army for 3 years. Did a semester of college then took a faster path and went to Computer Learning Center in downtown Philadelphia, PA. Got married in 1985 and bought my first home in 1986 at age 26 for $52,000 and first new car in 1987 for $6,500 (Plymouth Reliant). Worked in IT for 40 years, paid off my second home in 2007 at 47. Retired at 63 in 2023, raised six kids with 12 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. My kids have the same work ethic and path. However, my one daughter I paid cash for her college degree as a Social Worker from Slippery Rock University of PA who has earned her Masters Degree as well; something way more useful than Gender Studies. I do not see this type of direction in most of Millennials, Gen X, and Gen Z.
I couldn't agree more with the thoughts you laid out, Mike. I have voted for Republican candidates since I was eligible, with Ronald Reagan being the first. I am a veteran of 13 plus years and did not even feel financially confident buying a home in any of the states where I was stationed/lived in. I had to leave active duty and spend several years in the civilian world to develop the proper income for that privilege. A leopard can't change its spots, as the saying goes, and we will only get more of the same money sucking activity we endured for the last four years if the vice president is elected. I have heard the argument that she was not in charge, so it was President Biden who actually accelerated the financial and national security spiral. I must inject the vice president is complicit in all that happened. She was in the room when major policy decisions were made. For the Democratic party, there is now some sort of awakening to the problems that must be corrected, and they are trying to force the vice president on us as the savior, yet, again, we come back to the adage "a leopard can't change its spots" and the problems they created can only be resolved by a passionate, non-political business-minded individual such as former President Trump. This is the choice. Let's pray for the best outcome here, for a prosperous and secure nation sooner rather than later.
Another great video Mike. I'm 77, graduated high school in 1966, got in a couple of years of college (didn't graduate), join the Army and stayed in for 23 years. In the process of living on next to nothing, money wise, got married and helped raise two daughters. We bought our first and only house in 1988 for less than $50,000.
I agree with you 100% on your political views. Every vote count's and everyone that is LEAGELY able to vote needs to do so. Every vote count's weather it is for city, county, state or federal, we get who or what we vote for. Harris with her false promises and outright lies will help destroy this great nation. Everyone in my family will be voting for President Trump .

I'm kind of late in viewing and responding to this video but Mike you're Spot on in your thinking. I've worked in a few different fields from Grocery Retail/Wholesale, the Auto industry ( Retail, Commercial and Government Contracts) and and finally retired in a government position. What surprise me the most when transitioning from retail supply side to government was the amount of WASTE in the government sector . I had a very substantial budget for my department and I prided myself in keeping my fleet in top shape. When it came time to review our budgets I was always struck that no matter how well the fleet was maintained and operational , Even though I had for instance 3 pieces of equipment in top notch shape, my budget required me to buy new to satisfy the budget or lose my expense . In other words buy it whether you need it or not it's part of the budget! Our government operates on this principal that if you have a budget for it but don't need it buy it anyway ! THere is no telling how many abandoned buildings the government owns and not in use but they still maintain the idea they have to keep them instead of returning them to the open market. Since wwII our government had found out that war is profitable and there's no telling how many congressmen are investing in the industry that supplies that machine. I've always said it takes a businessmen to build a successful business but only government can cripple it with regulations and laws. Sorry to be so long winded but I think you understand my own disappointment in our current situation.
I'm glad you went back 40 years but i would also argue the rise in living costs has massively went up over the past 4 years. This is why these days most young people 18-35 years old live with their family members and people over 65 can not retire. This should not be America. If they didn't force Trump out 4 years this would not be the case!
$1,585 tomorrow for a root canal & has to be paid upfront!
Thats a steal (which region of the nation?) lol
Paid $1,285 for a root canal and the tooth still had to be pulled ended up being about $1,600.
Ouch and ouch!
Hold out your vote kamala might have a free root canal program.
@@6bt_str86No kidding I'm in Florida and just had a root canal a couple weeks ago and it was 2600.
I agree with you 10,000 percent Mike, but one thing no one takes into consideration is how dumb people are with their money now a days. out parents and grandparents would never buy a home that has a payment that's 50% of their income or a car 2-3 times their yearly income. i believe we could control a lot of this inflation if people were not so stupid with their money and didn't try to keep up with the jones at every turn. its not the root cause but its defiantly a huge factor for sure. Have a Great day and here's to tomorrow and making America great again! Trump 2024!
Absolutely correct!
Very good Mike
I think pretty much the way you do. I just don't like big government. Big government causes all the problems that we have now. When we have small government, and things are left up to the private sector; businesses grow, inflation goes down, jobs are created from expanding businesses, people have more money. Things are much better. I also don't want our rights taken away. But before a lot of this can happen, we have to get an government administration to make some changes in our government policies. Right now, in our case, a lot of changes have to be made. Biden and Kamala have been a disaster and Kamala hasn't said anything about how she is going to fix the economy. Only a lot of word salad. If you have paid close enough attention, you will have noticed that Obama has been right there behind the scenes. When Obama went into office he was worth about 3billion. When he left the presidency, he was worth 54 trillion. That's 54 times more than any other president. You have to ask yourself, how can this be? I think with Biden's health decline and Kamala's record, I think Obama is still up there calling the shots. I think that Trump is going to be our only chance at getting our government back to some control that will work for us, the people. I've prayed so much for our country. I love our freedoms,our Constitution, and I want it not for myself, but for all and future generations so that they can have some of the same. Thank you Mike Morgan for speaking out with your honest opinion. It all makes just perfect common sense. Again, I appreciate you and thanks!
I bought my first house in 1974 at the age of 24 paid 37k for a 3 bdrm 1.5 bathrooms with an unfinished basement with a 10k sq ft of yard on a culdesac. I think it sold for 62k that my wife got after the divorce. I also worked 2 jobs one at a bank and the other as a convenience store night manager. I inherited "The Money Pit" from my parents after they passed and every time I fix one thing I find 15 more to get done all seemingly urgent. lol I just find it hard to keep up and it is not getting easier but the current mtg is 122k and it is supposedly worth 705k from my mtg comp wanting me to increase my loan. Thank you no! Keep up the good info and you are mostly correct as far as the economy. It really doesn't matter as the overall message you gave was the belief that you see where the country is going. I also share your look to the future but that is why we all have our own life that brought us to our current path. A one take great video!!
We did it....❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 47th president Donald J Trump
"If you want to count Biden as a president"😂😂😂😂😂
Was he elected?
He was.
So he must be the President no mater if you like him or not.
@@Ikkeligeglad don't like him, yes he is the sitting president, I just thought the comment was funny ok. Ok
@@Ikkeligeglad selected, not elected, last one was stolen and they are doing their best to steal this one. How many States will suddenly stop counting with Trump ahead by a mile and all of a sudden at 4am a big delivery of Kamala votes will appear,.
@@Ikkeligeglad was he? Or was he moved in, to try and get O'bummer's third term? Funny, about harris they couldn't tell you what a woman was, now "she'll be the first female president".
This group, the democrats are out of their ever living mind... On your videos Mike. Keep on speaking your mind. We need more people doing so.
@@Ikkeligeglad Not by the people.
There are a lot of people that feel just like you Mike and I am one of them. The big machine put Kamala out there without one vote from the people. We must elect Trump or our country may go bust before we get another chance. Congress should be required to spend less than we take in. We have to live within our means and the government should also. I can coast to the end also but I have children and grandchildren to worry about. All the best from Greensboro NC. VOTE TRUMP
I hope bad new doesn’t come after tomorrow
Nothing but a super major crisis will change anything. The gov will continue printing paper, calling it money, and expect you to take it in exchange for labor or product. We need a gold standard.
Good to hear that an western PA resident is voting for Trump!
At 71 I know of what you speak , you are exactly right. I too am debt free by design. You lost 60 low information voters. Pray for Trump
Mike, we need your state to make this thing a slam dunk.
For Kamela
That's not going to happen .@@Ikkeligeglad
I watch your channel for its entertainment value. Not to hear you spout your opinion. I would prefer you to state your opinion on your couch in your own living room instead of trying to convince the entire viewership to agree with your opinion. That’s not going to happen. You’re only going to reinforce the beliefs of those who already agree with you. That is only MY OPINION. Given with all due respect.
@@Ikkeligeglad KJP, is that you?
@rickbottoms7838 it's a easy fix don't watch the videos that you don't want to watch everyone is entitled to express their opinion
War is defined as ...WHEN OLD RICH MEN SEND YOUNG MEN TO FIGHT AND DIE SO THEY CAN BE RICHER AND MORE POWERFUL.
Thank you Morgan Family and all the Pennsylvania voters for delivering yesterday!!🇺🇸
Anything the government touches will increase in cost, period.
Those that don’t have debt end up paying for those that cannot pay their debts, they give credit cards to people that don’t earn enough to service that credit card or bank loans.
Yea like student loans, they will lend a kid 200k with no income for them to go to college for whatever they want, they wouldn’t qualify for a used car loan
Productivity/pay ratio is another issue. Production is up 248%, while pay has increased only 146%.
Debt is slavery. If you owe someone, they control you.
Mike great video. I feel the same. I graduated from H.S. in 1978 then went to Diesel school. I swung a wrench working on cars in my parents garage for people since I was 15. I bought my first truck new 1978 K20 chevy (4 x4) and including tax the truck was $7450.
00. It's amazing. We have bigger issues ahead with supply chain problems. I've had long conversations with manufacturers and young salespeople. I talk about the issues at hand not having a skilled work force to replace all the guys that are retiring that are my age. I am the generator sales and rental business here in New Jersey. We do some big generators for campuses hospitals large facilities meeting generators that are 2000kw and larger. Machines like these are 2 million dollars a piece end up depending on what you order both from Caterpillar in from Cummins; If I put an order in for a machine that size today, the wait time is usually about 22 or 23 months. There telling us right now from either company. They don't have the workforce to run enough plants to make enough of the big engines that go in is giant machines to handle the demand. A whole topic the educational workforce could be had by you. For the last thirty or forty years everybody was told that if they didn't go to college they couldn't make a good living or wouldn't amount to anything. No, everybody went to college, got useless basket weaving degrees, that are useless in the workforce. And now they have tons of college debt. Most of the high schools have gotten rid of their trades classes even cosmetology classes for women getting into the certain other businesses that are using everyday life. Things like welders, electricians, plumbers, carpenters, every one of the unions all over the place have programs in place and recruiting begging people to come and work and they'll pay for school. They'll pay to train you and give you a guaranteed job and a serious wage. This is 30 years worth the missing workforce won't be repaired or recovered in our lifetime. It would take a concerted effort of our educational system, the government, and people to think about things that need to be made. As I was growing up in Cleveland Ohio I watched over the years as the machine shops one of the time we're sold and auctioned off and the old Bridgeport lathes were shipped overseas to China and so went those jobs that we're all successful and that supported the auto industry in northern Ohio and Michigan. None of these educational Courses are ever available in high school anymore. All the current trade schools that are open right now are packed and can't train enough kids fast enough for the demand. I can't get switch gear, I can't get Transformers. They're all telling me months and months to wait for things that I need for my industry. I have paying customers with briefcases full of cash that can't even spend it with me because I can't get them what they need. And this is nationwide from every manufacturer. It's just a mess. This supply chain issue is the next big problem without having a work force to replace me. I have no idea how Kamala going to build all these houses when there's nobody to build them.Try calling the contractor and find out how long it takes to build a new home nowadays. Ok I talked enough. Im with you 100% in your thinking. Keep up the good content. My best to the family. Mark Johnson

Same here in Canada. 1 in 4 can’t afford to eat properly. The idiot in charged doubled our debt and ruined our country.
Thank you Mike for your this video,👍
Thanks for watching
Mike….only one more day of useless political ads on tv. Praise the lord. Maybe we can get back to trying to get happy about day to day living together and being useful people?
I'm with you Mike you are spot on. I just can't rap my head around the people out there that can't see the forest through the trees. Ever since Covid I can't believe the stupidity I'm sorry 😢 but it sure brought it all out.
So many people are spoon feed.
@jaymontgomery3330 that's why I call them the dumb-masses
The problem is greed from top to bottom.
We are screwed because of low information voters. They literally have no clue what's going on. It's so sad they vote and drag us all down.
That’s what the machine wants, keep you uninformed
Absolutely agree 100% with you on that! There are some die hard democrats that would vote for Osama Bin Laden himself if he ran on the democratic ticket and those kind of people drag us all down!!
Thanks for helping us win 2024!
Hello Mike my name is Larry and Even though I watch RUclips videos your's being one I very seldom comment on them but I felt I had to comment on this one and just to say you are spot on in what you said. I am 10 years older than you so I am retired. I am from Wisconsin so a swing state like you and I traveled all over the USA when I worked for GP a paper mill so there were times when I did not vote as I just did not care. But now that I am retired I guess maybe I spend to much time watching TV so I have paid I lot more attention to this upcoming election. PS. I refuse to watch national media although I quit watching them maybe 10 years ago I do watch a lot streaming stuff like RUclips and Rumble. Back in the late 60s my father used to tell us don't trust the government as they are crooked or his favorite line was if they are a politician if their lips are moving they are lying to you but Donald Trump is different as he is a business man not a career politician. That's why even though back in the day I did vote for H Ross. As he to was a business man though I knew for him running as an independent was going to be tough I felt I had to cast my vote for him not these career politician's. Even though Trump is running as a GOP I don't feel that he is a true Republican witch is good.
Oh wow I'm 667 comentor and yes I'm
superstitious...i believe you were experiencing great consternation concerning your comments....
You are spot on on all of them too...i have some very educated friends / retired professionals who have voted for Harris...these are people whom i love to the moon and back and ive known them for over 60yrs...
I know the race is to close to call but from what I'm watching and hearing and these are people who do this for a living...from what I have digested from them Trump may have already WON...I know I know tomorrow is election Day I'm a traditionalist so I'm voting tomorrow....but Tuesday numbers of Republican voting should humble the democratics but it won't...
This is NOT Trumps first RODEO like you I believe he will work hard for us...
I pray to God everyday for a lot of reasons and included are prayers for Our Country 🙏
Charting corporate profits over the same time period might make your head spin.
A great day for America, Amen 🙏
Mike, many thanks to you and your fellow Pennsylvanians who did the right thing on Election Day to put the U.S. back on the right path. You are great Americans !
Did the $25,000 down payment grant get passed?
The Downpayment Toward Equity Act was introduced in Congress in 2021. As of November 2024, it has not yet been passed into law.
They are just trying to buy votes with no thought on what it will do to the economy and the national debt. We need to mandate economic courses in High School so by the time kids can vote they actually have a basic understanding of how money works.
Mike, 👋👋👋 great job and on point!!! I'll try to keep this brief.
Speaking of wasting or not using our money wisely.
Why do we have approx. 750 military bases in over 80 countries?
Close them down and bring the men and women home to lock down our borders.
Why don't we have bullet trains from Maine to California (i don't know why anyone would want to spend money in California)?
I rode on a bullet train in Japan in 1985 that went over 200 mph and my drink never moved on my table.
The bottom line of this reply is why doesn't Wash. DC take care of America first - infrastructure, health care, etc?
We haven't seen hard times but I'm afraid it's coming!!!
This proud American and Vietnam Veteran is voting for Donald John Trump !!! ---------> T🗽R🗽U🗽M🗽P -- 2024
I will pay good money to anyone on the inside who can send a video of Pelosi having a private temper tantrum meltdown tomorrow evening! TRUMP VANCE 2024 🇺🇸
Same goes for Hillary and Kamala
She was probably so drunk last night she can't get out of bed.
I've been working the "early voting" polls in PA, and will be at the polls from 9am to close. It is encouraging to see so many young people energized to vote for Trump and his team. The 18-25 crowd isn't as stupid as some people think, they have more to lose than the rest of us. I'll be up all night watching this unfold. Say a prayer, repeat. Lets go!
Yesterday I unsubscribed from another channel because they were Harris supporters. I'm not going to listen to anyone who supports the mess we've had for the past few years. At this point it's good vs evil and we have to take a stand! Thanks for being brave and speaking out about this.
Quit being so sensitive and emotional, you're the exact problem with this country lol
Mike, you're correct with the numbers but you're over simplifying the macro economics. Here are just a few of the complications you are overlooking. Too many parents push their kids into college without looking at the return on investment resulting in increased student demand and inflated tuition. House square footage and options has increased over the years. Households eat much more outside of the home. Vehicles have too many options driving up cost and complexity for insurance and repairs. In general, you cannot underestimate the average consumers WANT to spend.Etc. etc.
Don’t you think the biggest driver of tuition is student loans where they lend kids basically any amount of money?
@@OutdoorsWithTheMorgansYes, that's also an issue. That's the point I'm trying to make with only a few sentences. It's more complicated than you originally stated. Another example is Healthcare which also expanded quite a lot since 1984. We now have prescribed meds and services with such buildings on nearly every block. (Or tampons in boys restrooms???) Complex issues require complex solutions. But don't fear, I'm with you patriot. I'm not blind to the radical beliefs of platitudes of hope and joy. Nor do I blindly support comments from a buffoon. But logic directs me to the lesser of two evils. We're counting on your neighbors to pull us in a new direction. No pressure...👍
Oh no i hope I didn’t walk into something I don’t want to because who likes bad news
He said 36 trillion less then no money. 😂 thank you for saying the quite part out loud. Homeless man has 36 trillion more than the government! @42 years old. This was my first and last vote!
You are spot on. I am sure you have heard this “you should run, along with Mike Rowe for President”
what did we get for all that debt, id say bigger government so nothing good
It's interesting that when a bank gets in trouble with a borrower that can't pay they sometimes work out a plan where payments are suspended for a time with no interest to allow the borrower time to get back to work or recover from sickness, etc. Why not tell the creditors of our country that the country is "sick" and that we will need 4 years without interest or payments. After that we will resume payments. During that 4 years, the country will curtail spending and use the money we raise through taxes that is not committed to social security and a couple other things to reduce the debt. ALL politicians will serve their terms at minimum wage with no special benefits. Lifetine free benefits after they retire, get unelected or leave for any reason are limited to the average of regular workers. No more of politics as a lifetime job with unlimited benefits. Presidents get one 6 year term only to prevent unending campaigns for reelection. Term limits for all politicians with pay at minimum wage. Jail for any corruption. And some fiscal restraint. We stop funding other countries.
I can guarantee you wages are not keeping up with rising costs. One of two things will happen Tuesday (or when it's decided) If an 'R' wins the 'D's' will riot. If a 'D' wins the 'R's' will put their heads down, work some OT to pay for the rising Taxes.
💯
Yup, Republicans will take the mythical "high road ", roll over and take it like a beat dog.
I liked your video, the explanation on the rimes and reasons that the state of your country is currently in. I could write pages on agreement and disagreement for the explanations, but as I'm from Scotland I feel i don't have the right. However I would like to give just a couple things said to me in the past that I feel you may take onboard, an old friend told me, if I had 7 truck and 2 were idle then the 5 working trucks will be able to cover the cost of the 2 idle trucks, but if you have 5 idle trucks then there is no way the 2 working trucks can cover the costs, which leads to borrowing costs to keep thigs going which is false. Therefore it's a matter governments all over the world take on borrowing as a short term fix, but in fact they are making it worse for the hard working public. My second point is, if I have a chain with all the links being equal in size and strength then each link shares the load equally, but when you get a link that is much bigger in size and strength (Banks) then the rest of the chain becomes weak and is at the mercy of the big link. You cannot have the normal work force not working and depending on banks to bail them out.
I'm a little late to this vid but I am glad I watched it. I think you nailed the sentiment for us North Americans perfectly.
This is the most important election of our lifetime. Republicans who stay home elect Democrats. Get out and vote. Take five people with you.
I have heard that line since 1992 when I was 14 years old. The same thing was said, and we are all still Americans. If you don't like the results, leave.
@@megamike4357 Am I hearing an "American" tell an American it's not ok to disagree with results and hope for change? Sounds pretty un-American there, Mr. "American".
Agreed… MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION OF OUR LIVES AND YOUR CHILD’S, AND GRANDCHILDREN’S. A vote for Kamala is a vote for the NWO and 3rd world Communism coming to your doorstep.
@@megamike4357You are obviously voting WRONG but that is your right.
@clamdigr no, that's not at all the point I was making. I was stating the phase has been said for every election. I did als say If you can't handle the outcome, maybe look in the mirror. You might realize how selfish you are.
Mike: Truth such as yours will eventually be recognized!
Hello Mike, WOW, that was like me giving a talk to myself in the mirror. I knew you were our kind of people, seeing her reaction, when Melissa found that Bible in the dump trailer you bought years ago. Jesus Christ said that "The LOVE of money is the root of all evil." But seeing the train coming and being able to get off the tracks are two different things. Two things: You have just been inducted into my personal League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. It is a small list of very worthy people. We see what you see. I recently heard a man say; "People can vote themselves into socialism but history tells us they have to shoot their way out." God forbid! Know this; you have family south of Pittsburgh, but we've never met. Shalom/gw. PS. We are Christians. Shalom is a Hebrew word asking God to give you all of the blessings he could possibly imagine. I've been using it as a closing for 30 years.❤
Mike, I loved your comparisons of prices of the '80s to '24s. If you want to go a step farther, look at the prices a farmer can get for a bushel of corn (56 lbs) in the 80's compared to today. Our local elevator is giving $3.51 today, that's lower than the '80s. Their basis is 0.75 (basis) below the CBOT (Chicago Board of Trade). Soybeans basis is -0.99, at $9.05.
Something you forgot, the issue is a worldwide problem not just in the USA. Time to think the USA isn't the world.. unreal
Yet it has been the USA that has used OUR TAX MONEY to foot the bills for ALL OF THE WORLD!
We ask where our tax money has gone. It sure is not back into our hands!
American Veterans receive less care than ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS!
And where has FEMA, and other government agencies been in helping those folks affected by hurricane Helene???
The United States is the LAUGHING STOCK of other world governments!!!
In my 68 years I would have NEVER GUESSED that we would be in this situation!
I’m convinced there are more of us than them! Hopefully tomorrow reflects that 🤞
Mike, I’m definitely voting for Donald Trump. I agree with you 100%about the media. You are right about Harris not answering questions. She just says a bunch of words and all around the question. I enjoy your channel very very much and I also enjoy hearing your opinion. I’m not going anywhere, I look forward to your next video. Thanks Mike for being you.
Well Mike, I was just a little disappointed when I went into vote,, I couldn’t find your name on the ballot,, so I did the next best thing, I voted for Trump,,, thank you for your great videos and thank you for your honesty, I know you kept saying,”this is just my opinion”, well your opinion was dead on,,,, in my opinion…
I graduated in 83 and agree with you 1000%. I'm a double transplant guy and my working days are over. I worry about my son daughter in law and two grandsons future. I hope I never find out just how high they can tax us. 40% is way to much already. I'm excited to see how the Trumps team changes. But I too am a realist. Madison and Milwaukee have millions of voters. That makes it tough. Thanks for doing this Mike.
They made a turbo in 4 cylinder I thought they were six cylinders but idk your must be right because you don’t speak on stuff you don’t know about but I bet it was nice ima look them up
1983-1988 t-bird was available with a 2.3 liter, cast iron inline 4 cylinder with turbo. I retired from the AF in 87 and wanted one of those so bad, but with new wife and family, retired and new job in the works the paid for 83 Accord looked better.
@ damn I thought they only put turbos in six cylinder vehicles that’s how much I know but 83 was when I was born I’d like to get one but they are probably few and far in between
@ thanks
Mustang SVO had the same 2.3L turbocharged engine
Super Couphad a turboed 4
I had one in a Ford Probe
Also had a Probe with the 3.0 v-6
no I don't share your same opinion but I still watch Mike and Melissa
You voted for George Soros, not Kamala. She's not in charge of anything. You should know that by now.
Good to hear I'm not alone thanks Mike. TRUMP will have his work cut out for him. But I'm wondering what happens after his term?
trump is too lazy and stupid to fix anything.
@@MrSteeDoo ahhhh the typical Democrat speaks. You can go back to the beginning of this administration and you could spend hours listening to the democrats accuse Republicans of what they're doing. It definitely applies with your statement. Harris has the intellectual capacity of a 10 year old. That incompetent fool Biden has the intellectual capacity of a 5 year old.
Hi Mike. You're right. It's a" machine of being indebt." Personally. I don't think ANYONE can fix. It's going to interesting. How it all pans out. We'll see. I still respect you Mike as a person. We'll see the outcome. Say Hi to Melissa, Melissa's dad, Eva, Hunter, Levi, Tyler, & Hannah. Have a good Monday evening the 4th. 🥰🙂😉👍❤️💜🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
We are 55 years into our current monetary system. This system started in 1970. This system is based on debt. Debt creates money. Debt also counters capital. Most monetary systems last around 70 years. Ours may last that long. If it does the last 15 years will be more eventful and exciting than the first 15 years which finished around 1984. It is fairly probable one day debt will swallow all of the capital. The system will then collapse.
You do not learn this in economic or history classes in university or colleges.
Got my Trump flag up- our country needs him!! Tomorrow -the whole world is watching.
Great video and information, Mike. They want us to own nothing and be happy. One of the many things Chris and I like/respect about you is your thirst for knowledge, truth and doing the work to find it. It isn’t always good news not comfortable news. The list is long on how they’ve done all of this. I graduated high school May 1984. Chris I discuss often on how everything has changed since. Too large of government partnered with their spending and money printing, partnered with people wearing rose colored glasses.
Thanks for the insight Mike, I wholeheartedly agree with you. I voted a early a couple of days ago, I urge those who haven't voted to get off the couch and go to the polls tomorrow and cast your vote for Freedom, vote for Trump!
Some of my coworkers are paying for a $80k truck, 50k car, and a $350k DR Horton Home on a half acre.
Begging for overtime to make payments.
I’m glad I live simple and debt free. I couldn’t imagine being in the amount of debt people are in.
Over 2K comments so if you actually get to read this… Mike, you’re spot on - HOWEVER - you are looking at symptoms, not root cause. I started to read “The Harbinger” by Jonathan Cahn and am 2/3 through. I PROMISE YOU that if you read it, you’ll never forget it and you will understand why the world is the way that it is now. Love y’all, Marcus back in Chesapeake VA.
If you back up 40 years from1984 you see the same thing
This morning we are celebrating that DONALD TRUMP is our 47th PRESIDENT!!! Praise to Jesus Christ!
Amen !
My grandson is a United States Marine at the age of 20. I can't mention his job in this forum, but I pray daily that Trump is his Commander in Chief...not Harris, so his chances of being deployed to "hot spots" around the world are not as likely. I know how I'm voting.
America has a chance now to rebuild,a
nation for all the people standing together means a solid crust with all the cracks fixed, remember we are all brothers and sisters from Adam and Eve,
I still don't know how that happened. Incest?
Thank you Mike for helping save the country 🇺🇸
We desperately need Voter Reform . In my opinion to have the right to vote one should in some capacity be a CONTRIBUTOR to the System . A man who rises at 4:00am to milk then on to tend the fields and feed 1000s should have a stronger vote than an Inner-city Welfare recipient ....... THIS is why our Democracy is failing !!!
