Improved productivity is great, but not if it’s priced to gouge people. If corporations expect 20 % and 30% margins on a yearly income cycle, all the productivity in the world is not going to solve the problem. The problem is greed. Corporate greed, wanting to make 20 to 30% or more per year as an average gain is criminal when wages are stagnant or effectively at a net negative growth in relation to inflation.
@volakis1966 it's more than just that. Unions, regulations, osha, etc all play a part as well. Then you have the actual workers themselves. It's hard enough to find good workers who aren't aging out. Then you factor in the mindset that they must have higher wages just because. It's weird how everyone wants to blame the "mega corporations" as if that's the focal point of everything. The majority of these places are actually franchised and not making billions of dollars. For instance you're local Walmart or burger King is likely owned and operated by local people. However, everyone sees the name and assumes its one giant entity.

I grow vegetables for myself to make "stuff.". Ordinary people producing stuff at home, and not being heavily extracted by gov and by BlackRock, is sustainable. All these suburban lawns should be haying for horses and other livestock, and ultimately, the horse manure, adds to soil fertility. You see invasive vegetation everywhere that has to be landscaped. All that unwanted vegetation can be fed to goats, or cut straight to garden mulch. Growing vegetables is a soul remedy to the high fructose corn syrup dystopia.
I agree. I hate lawns. I'll know it's bad in the US when HOAs let people dig up their front yard to plant food and let them have chickens in the back yard. Ask North Koreans how well people survive on grass. Answer? They don't. Grass and hay are animal feed, only.

Not that that matters anyways, an extra 200 billion on 30 trillion is literally fractions of a single percent of debt increase... AKA, basically unnoticeable. If you actually cared about the US debt, you'd name something that actually matters and drastically affects US debt like social security or Medicare/Medicaid or half a dozen other federal programs that actually affect the US's federal debt count. But, of course, you don't care about things that actually matter, because you're trying to make a narrative that we're spending "insane" or "ridiculous" amounts outside of the country on things that don't affect Americans, and that that's why we're in such a tough financial spot.

His assessment that politics is run by advertising free stuff to the voters seems inaccurate to me.

Given the persisting global economic crisis, it's essential for individuals to focus on diversifying their income streams independent of governmental reliance. This involves exploring options such as stocks, gold, silver, and digital currencies. Despite the adversity in the economy, now is an opportune moment to contemplate these investment avenues.
Knowledgeable Investors know where and how to put money during a crisis in order to reduce risk and maximize returns. See a market strategist with experience if you are unable to manage these market conditions.
This speaker has a very comprehensive understanding of economics, inflation, money, and government principles and policies. A deep understanding of issues that impact the global economy.
It was mainly the lockdowns that did that. The "money printing" certainly contributed to greater income inequality indirectly by driving asset markets higher. Some people like Raoul Pal argue that the ongoing currency debasement is mainly done in order to offset the demographic issues that plague not only the US but all industrialised countries.
This needs to be a debate because many of the points made have simple and factual answers as to the psychology of nations based on socioeconomic status.

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage. - Alexander Fraser Tytler 1747-1813

I’m curious as to why in the first 5 mins Tom mentions Trump and Biden and how neither is giving a plan to stop the spending yet he did not mention Bobby Kennedy who has mentioned in his campaign all the issues he’s going to fix including the spending.
Except Trump massively increased the deficit and Biden massively cut it. Under Obama, we had steady economic growth, low inflation, and the deficit reduced every year. If he had a 3rd term, we would be paying down the debt.
@@garythecyclingnerd6219 the last two presidents had increased the deficit by more than all previous presidents combined and its pretty much half and half. Federal spending has not slowed down but the growth of the real economy has and the farther the two separate the more apparent the issues will be.

Speaking of GMOs like they don't come with strings attached is very misleading. Just look at Monsanto and how aggressively they pursue royalties from their breed of rice. If you plant and grow their roce seed, your field essentially belongs to them. That's not to say nothing of the unknown health concerns stemming from GMO foods.
After their contracts ends, they can always stop using Monsanto's seeds and go back to old varieties... but, there's a reason why the average farm doesn't.

Dear Nerd Bro, Nobody CARES about how much money you have. WE WANT HOUSES. We want to own a home that we can pass on to OUR KIDS. The Middle Class is DONE in America.
You can have one Go buy land and go build your house People are so out of touch. You think what’s going on since 1950s was the “American dream” lol you were sold a lie by bankers wake up You are a completely dependent, low economic productivity. The bankers don’t care to sell you anything anymore You need to go buy LAND to pass down not a “house” you didn’t even build that’s shit to begin with
This truly is about 95% of what matters today. Very complex in terms of what is driving costs and unaffordability, but the main problem is simple. Until costs plunge by 50%+, the American dream is legitimately dead. I don’t see how more politicians don’t see this aside from being completely out of touch.
That "program", social security, is a Contract between me and my government. I kept my part thru 50 years of military service and gainful employment. Uncle Sam must keep his word.
The US is keeping its word for you 50+ year olds... its trying to STOP it for future generations before they get vested into the program though... and for some reason, they won't.
What happens if you vote somebody in and the person ends up being a liar and does exactly the opposite of what they campaigned on? That's what happens all the time. So, voting is not the answer because people change all the time. They're coerced they're bribed, they're blackmailed. There's all kinds of reasons.
You have to look at Congress and the Senate to see voting is a BS scam many of them are older guys who have been in their seats for decades and guarantee a win all the time,
They should have to actually submit proposal ma to the public, we approve them & then if they don’t follow through they go to jail. You should go to jail if you promise the public one thing and do another. Oh wait, that would imply accountability.

The government raided the Social Security Insurance fund. The government won't negotiate lower drug prices with drug companies, because drug companies buy our politicians with campaign contributions. The guest failed to mention this.

@@JE-bd3wu George W. Bush White House Archives- How much has the government taken from the Social Security fund? The Government Has Borrowed $1.7 Trillion From The Social Security Trust Fund. The government has borrowed the total value of the Trust Fund to pay for other government spending.
Social Security didn't start with a loaded trust fund. The fund (there are two funds, one for disability and one for retirement) goes up when there is a surplus in payments in vs payments out, and down when there is a deficit. The money being paid into the system goes to the people getting paid by the system. I think people misunderstand the trust funds. They are just a buffer. There isn't a pile of cash in the funds. There are government obligations. So, really, it's not separate from the money printing problem. It's part of it. "Raiding" isn't what most people think it is in this case.
@@JE-bd3wu Social Security ran surpluses for many years, the money was supposed to be put aside for population increases in the future (now). But instead of putting it aside they rolled it into the general funds so they could give tax cuts to the rich. The truth is that social security and medicare pay for themselves and aren't the problem. It's actually you that's ignorant here and an embarrassment to humanity.
I'm so glad Tom interviewed Friedberg. He is my favorite on the All In. This brought me in and gave me a chance to watch Tom - love the show. I'm definitely subscribing and I want to hear a lot more interviews from Tom. Maybe try Michael Saylor next? In terms of David, I love how David thinks. He's a free thinker and really what our country needs. If David Friedberg said the same thing on 10 other podcasts, I'd watch every second of those other podcasts like I did this one. I wish he'd be more vocal and debate harder in every All In Podcast because when David is involved, those are the best ones. I'd really love for David to touch millions of others by doing more 1-1 interviews as well. He is an incredible and powerful voice. He is extremely rational and well studied with history as well as very in tune with innovation. I just can't get enough David Friedberg. Maybe he should write a book as well.
Friedberg ihas a very logical thought process. I enjoy his thought process. He has a tendency to give you his thoughts in terms of A leads to B, B leads to C which fits the way I think and absorb information. Very enjoyable. His research too is quite amazing and worth hearing about.
@Banmuyuan And the Bankers are able to print money out of thin air. Is it any wonder the oligarchs rule us? It's insane that people allow a small cabal to control the monetary system and enslave the rest of us in debts that we can never pay.
The preponderance of Gov't spending that created this mess is unconstitutional. The idea a constitutional amendment would solve anything is ludicrous. The constitution is only as good as the people who make up the society it serves. If the people are capricious, reckless and ill informed no constitution will protect them from gov't or much more; themselves. An example: The seizing of bank accounts during the Canadian trucker protest was later ruled unconstitutional by the Canadian supreme court. Didn't stop it happening and no punishment was meted out for the violation.
RFK Jr. is sick and he's only tempting you. He's only gaining momentum because he's the 3rd person, an alternative, but he is the last person you should be behind. Think smart and realistically: Biden, for now.
RFJ Jr. is a cook. Plenty of other politicians that have "presented" "Proposals" on how to "get the debt problem under control"... the problem is: once they get into office, they never actually do anything they "proposed". The entire modern US political historical record has been rife with such "candidates". They all fail, just like RFK Jr. would if he was elected.
@02:07:55 Its not that GMOs are bad necessarily, its that some of the biggest disasters that happen to us have come from human intervention by a centralizing authority and on an industrial scale. The real GMO skeptics are skeptical of the claims that GMOs are "safe", because such a claim will only play out in time. We won't know the negative effects, if any, of those GMOs potentially for decades, so people should be skeptical of the "safe" claim. It's like how Fauci couldn't have known if the jab was safe or not, yet he loudly and proudly proclaimed that it was. Well it wasn't, and all the alternative treatments which were decried as conspiracy theories and doctors were silenced over them ended up being correct. I'll never give up my horse medicine. Be skeptical of things that have only been around in the short term. The negative effects sometimes take decades to play out. Just look at how bad vegetable oils and high fructose corn syrup has been for us.

"some of the biggest disasters that happen to us have come from human intervention from central authority on industrial scale" 👈🏽 💯 This was so obvious during the covid, like why force mRNA vaccines on people when millions pros & non pros are skeptical 🫤
Every breakthrough technology is a double edged sword by nature. They’re paradigm shifts that inevitably destroy precursor industries and replace them with new ones. If you recall he laid out his worldview on these kinds of technologies an hour before the GMO discussion and essentially said top down gov regulation cripples their growth and that these technological leaps are worth the risks as humans have historically fine tuned them over time. We don’t use lead pipes anymore, we don’t use asbestos in insulation, we rotate crops now instead of destroy the topsoil, we pasteurize milk, we have expiration dates on food, we have workers rights, etc etc. as technology becomes more groundbreaking it undoubtedly comes with higher risks but there’s no reason to believe we can’t combat them and we certainly shouldn’t willfully retard the trajectory of humanity out of fear of the unknown. Even our most prehistoric ancient hominid ancestors left the canopies of the trees and become bipedal. It’s not only philosophically unsophisticated to accept a certain threshold of technology as being the idea human condition it’s literally inhuman to do so. Our entire biological and civilizational trajectory is defined by rapid and extreme adaptation and innovation. Any reasonable and thinking person approaches new concepts with skepticism but GMOs have been on the market for 50 years and as he pointed out have contributed to a surplus in food resources globally and has aided entire swaths of the population. He used the gmo “golden rice” example to illustrate this fact. The same is true with vaccines and RFK has recently shifted societies understanding on them to a great extent but even he concedes that the risks, though present are minuscule relative to their net positive. He’s the biggest public advocate for pharmaceutical transparency in the country and even he doesn’t delegitimize the vital role they play in modern society. In fact every time I’ve ever heard him talk about vaccines he always makes a point to tell the interviewee/audience that him and his kids are all vaccinated.
In fact if i recall correctly RFK has never sued a pharmaceutical company to cease production or distribution of vaccines he’s only ever sued against willful deceit/coverup and refusal to acknowledge adverse symptoms and compensate victims.

To achieve this and cause a crash it needs to be done quickly. To achieve this quickly requires funding. To take on funding requires debt, which when transformed to revenue will balance everything out. That's my thoughts
Our taxes are going to Ukraine to fund American industries, however, that money goes into the pocket of oligarchs. Very little goes into production and jobs for the little people and some fat cat is on track to be the next billionaire. That is the problem. US taxpayers fund the RISK while fat cats REAP the PROFITS. That model is WRONG.
Why do I never hear from economists about the huge waste of tax payer money that goes to supporting other countries like Israel and Ukraine? The amounts are enormous, spent on warmongering, supporting regimes, and its led by the lobbists in Washington who in turn, are getting ungodly wealthy on the back on average Joe.
Because most of that money doesn't go to those countries, it goes straight to US companies with military contracts who make the weapons that we then send to those countries. The corrupt politicians are getting their share of those profits so they will always vote to "send money" to those countries.
Because it's such a small %.. waste? Absolutely.. and I hate it as well, our foreign aid to dozens of countries is bullshit and we pay most of NATO, the WHO and so on.. but we've gave ukraine 200 billion in 3 years, of 34T debt that 200B is only 0.7% of our debt. So it's nothing.. BUT 200B shouldn't be going to help americans
The fact we give these countries so much money actually artificially props up the value of our fiat currency. Once we give someone a free billion dollars, they spend that money and the people that they purchase from also spend that money. It’s a joke way to maintain value though.

David Friedberg is the best. I respect his opinions enormously. And the work he’s doing to increase the productivity of agriculture will probably save millions of lives over the long run.

Improved productivity is great, but not if it’s priced to gouge people. If corporations expect 20 % and 30% margins on a yearly income cycle, all the productivity in the world is not going to solve the problem. The problem is greed. Corporate greed, wanting to make 20 to 30% or more per year as an average gain is criminal when wages are stagnant or effectively at a net negative growth in relation to inflation.
@volakis1966 it's more than just that. Unions, regulations, osha, etc all play a part as well. Then you have the actual workers themselves. It's hard enough to find good workers who aren't aging out. Then you factor in the mindset that they must have higher wages just because.
It's weird how everyone wants to blame the "mega corporations" as if that's the focal point of everything. The majority of these places are actually franchised and not making billions of dollars. For instance you're local Walmart or burger King is likely owned and operated by local people. However, everyone sees the name and assumes its one giant entity.
Wrong. It isnt the profit margins, when ice cream went from $0.30 (1960s) to $5.00 (now). That isnt profit margin to blame dingus. MSNBC is rotting your brain

I grow vegetables for myself to make "stuff.". Ordinary people producing stuff at home, and not being heavily extracted by gov and by BlackRock, is sustainable. All these suburban lawns should be haying for horses and other livestock, and ultimately, the horse manure, adds to soil fertility.
You see invasive vegetation everywhere that has to be landscaped. All that unwanted vegetation can be fed to goats, or cut straight to garden mulch.

$30 Trillion in debt… but weve got hundreds of billions for Ukraine and Illegal immigrant benefits.
We haven't even given them $200 billion yet... so, no... we don't have hundreds of billions for them yet. Not that that matters anyways, an extra 200 billion on 30 trillion is literally fractions of a single percent of debt increase... AKA, basically unnoticeable. If you actually cared about the US debt, you'd name something that actually matters and drastically affects US debt like social security or Medicare/Medicaid or half a dozen other federal programs that actually affect the US's federal debt count. But, of course, you don't care about things that actually matter, because you're trying to make a narrative that we're spending "insane" or "ridiculous" amounts outside of the country on things that don't affect Americans, and that that's why we're in such a tough financial spot.

His assessment that politics is run by advertising free stuff to the voters seems inaccurate to me.

Given the persisting global economic crisis, it's essential for individuals to focus on diversifying their income streams independent of governmental reliance. This involves exploring options such as stocks, gold, silver, and digital currencies. Despite the adversity in the economy, now is an opportune moment to contemplate these investment avenues.

Printing money during COVID was a catastrophe that transferred wealth in terms of real assets from the poor to the rich
It was mainly the lockdowns that did that. The "money printing" certainly contributed to greater income inequality indirectly by driving asset markets higher. Some people like Raoul Pal argue that the ongoing currency debasement is mainly done in order to offset the demographic issues that plague not only the US but all industrialised countries.

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.

I’m curious as to why in the first 5 mins Tom mentions Trump and Biden and how neither is giving a plan to stop the spending yet he did not mention Bobby Kennedy who has mentioned in his campaign all the issues he’s going to fix including the spending.
Except Trump massively increased the deficit and Biden massively cut it. Under Obama, we had steady economic growth, low inflation, and the deficit reduced every year. If he had a 3rd term, we would be paying down the debt.
@@garythecyclingnerd6219 Biden is on track to break Trump's atrocious inflation record. Biden is cooked. Fighting over those 2 is absolutely INSANE
@@garythecyclingnerd6219 the last two presidents had increased the deficit by more than all previous presidents combined and its pretty much half and half. Federal spending has not slowed down but the growth of the real economy has and the farther the two separate the more apparent the issues will be.
@garythecyclingnerd6219 this is a fantasy. I am not a fan of Trump, but no where does the data indicate we would be 'paying back' the debt if Obama's policies had only been extended 4 more years. He would have had covid to deal with, and would have turned on the money printer, jacked inflation and increased the rate of dollar debasement.

Go buy land and go build your house
People are so out of touch. You think what’s going on since 1950s was the “American dream” lol you were sold a lie by bankers wake up
You are a completely dependent, low economic productivity. The bankers don’t care to sell you anything anymore
You need to go buy LAND to pass down not a “house” you didn’t even build that’s shit to begin with
Not just any house, affordable and in a decent location.
Don't fall for that trap.
This truly is about 95% of what matters today. Very complex in terms of what is driving costs and unaffordability, but the main problem is simple. Until costs plunge by 50%+, the American dream is legitimately dead. I don’t see how more politicians don’t see this aside from being completely out of touch.

What happens if you vote somebody in and the person ends up being a liar and does exactly the opposite of what they campaigned on? That's what happens all the time. So, voting is not the answer because people change all the time. They're coerced they're bribed, they're blackmailed. There's all kinds of reasons.
Your describing our political system today and for the last 50 years
They tell us one thing and do another
You have to look at Congress and the Senate to see voting is a BS scam many of them are older guys who have been in their seats for decades and guarantee a win all the time,
They should have to actually submit proposal ma to the public, we approve them & then if they don’t follow through they go to jail. You should go to jail if you promise the public one thing and do another. Oh wait, that would imply accountability.
You have three choices and two have them have already run the government so you know what they will do which has put the US where it is today! So the only choice is RFK Jr which is going to give the country back to the people.
The government raided the Social Security Insurance fund. The government won't negotiate lower drug prices with drug companies, because drug companies buy our politicians with campaign contributions. The guest failed to mention this.

@@JE-bd3wu George W. Bush White House Archives- How much has the government taken from the Social Security fund? The Government Has Borrowed $1.7 Trillion From The Social Security Trust Fund. The government has borrowed the total value of the Trust Fund to pay for other government spending.
Social Security didn't start with a loaded trust fund. The fund (there are two funds, one for disability and one for retirement) goes up when there is a surplus in payments in vs payments out, and down when there is a deficit. The money being paid into the system goes to the people getting paid by the system.
I think people misunderstand the trust funds. They are just a buffer.
There isn't a pile of cash in the funds. There are government obligations. So, really, it's not separate from the money printing problem. It's part of it.
"Raiding" isn't what most people think it is in this case.
@@JE-bd3wu Social Security ran surpluses for many years, the money was supposed to be put aside for population increases in the future (now). But instead of putting it aside they rolled it into the general funds so they could give tax cuts to the rich. The truth is that social security and medicare pay for themselves and aren't the problem. It's actually you that's ignorant here and an embarrassment to humanity.

Its not that GMOs are bad necessarily, its that some of the biggest disasters that happen to us have come from human intervention by a centralizing authority and on an industrial scale. The real GMO skeptics are skeptical of the claims that GMOs are "safe", because such a claim will only play out in time. We won't know the negative effects, if any, of those GMOs potentially for decades, so people should be skeptical of the "safe" claim.
It's like how Fauci couldn't have known if the jab was safe or not, yet he loudly and proudly proclaimed that it was. Well it wasn't, and all the alternative treatments which were decried as conspiracy theories and doctors were silenced over them ended up being correct. I'll never give up my horse medicine.
Be skeptical of things that have only been around in the short term. The negative effects sometimes take decades to play out. Just look at how bad vegetable oils and high fructose corn syrup has been for us.
100%. The scary thing about this guy condescending to those in FL etc he claims who are just defending the meat industry … I’m a vegan and stand with DeSantis on this! … we won’t find out what lab grown meat and food does to us till 20 years later.
"some of the biggest disasters that happen to us have come from human intervention from central authority on industrial scale" 👈🏽 💯
This was so obvious during the covid, like why force mRNA vaccines on people when millions pros & non pros are skeptical 🫤
Every breakthrough technology is a double edged sword by nature. They’re paradigm shifts that inevitably destroy precursor industries and replace them with new ones. If you recall he laid out his worldview on these kinds of technologies an hour before the GMO discussion and essentially said top down gov regulation cripples their growth and that these technological leaps are worth the risks as humans have historically fine tuned them over time. We don’t use lead pipes anymore, we don’t use asbestos in insulation, we rotate crops now instead of destroy the topsoil, we pasteurize milk, we have expiration dates on food, we have workers rights, etc etc. as technology becomes more groundbreaking it undoubtedly comes with higher risks but there’s no reason to believe we can’t combat them and we certainly shouldn’t willfully retard the trajectory of humanity out of fear of the unknown. Even our most prehistoric ancient hominid ancestors left the canopies of the trees and become bipedal. It’s not only philosophically unsophisticated to accept a certain threshold of technology as being the idea human condition it’s literally inhuman to do so. Our entire biological and civilizational trajectory is defined by rapid and extreme adaptation and innovation. Any reasonable and thinking person approaches new concepts with skepticism but GMOs have been on the market for 50 years and as he pointed out have contributed to a surplus in food resources globally and has aided entire swaths of the population. He used the gmo “golden rice” example to illustrate this fact. The same is true with vaccines and RFK has recently shifted societies understanding on them to a great extent but even he concedes that the risks, though present are minuscule relative to their net positive. He’s the biggest public advocate for pharmaceutical transparency in the country and even he doesn’t delegitimize the vital role they play in modern society. In fact every time I’ve ever heard him talk about vaccines he always makes a point to tell the interviewee/audience that him and his kids are all vaccinated.
In fact if i recall correctly RFK has never sued a pharmaceutical company to cease production or distribution of vaccines he’s only ever sued against willful deceit/coverup and refusal to acknowledge adverse symptoms and compensate victims.

Our taxes are going to Ukraine to fund American industries, however, that money goes into the pocket of oligarchs. Very little goes into production and jobs for the little people and some fat cat is on track to be the next billionaire. That is the problem. US taxpayers fund the RISK while fat cats REAP the PROFITS. That model is WRONG.
Friedberg is the man. Thanks for your wisdom brotha
Absolutely fantastic David....I am understanding you very well explained....thank you soo much!
Why do I never hear from economists about the huge waste of tax payer money that goes to supporting other countries like Israel and Ukraine? The amounts are enormous, spent on warmongering, supporting regimes, and its led by the lobbists in Washington who in turn, are getting ungodly wealthy on the back on average Joe.
Because most of that money doesn't go to those countries, it goes straight to US companies with military contracts who make the weapons that we then send to those countries. The corrupt politicians are getting their share of those profits so they will always vote to "send money" to those countries.
Because it's such a small %.. waste? Absolutely.. and I hate it as well, our foreign aid to dozens of countries is bullshit and we pay most of NATO, the WHO and so on.. but we've gave ukraine 200 billion in 3 years, of 34T debt that 200B is only 0.7% of our debt. So it's nothing.. BUT 200B shouldn't be going to help americans
The fact we give these countries so much money actually artificially props up the value of our fiat currency.
Once we give someone a free billion dollars, they spend that money and the people that they purchase from also spend that money. It’s a joke way to maintain value though.
If you want to maintain super power status then you got to give freebies. If we don’t, some other power will. Create a vacuum, some other power will fill it in, and quickly.

Voters will never vote for less. DC will never limit or stop its spending. The solution is to pass and ratify a statutory constitutional limitation on spending through the Article V convention mechanism in the Constitution. 19 of the 34 required states have already done this and if you will help educate folks about this option it could be a viable solution. Thanks
The solution is to force the legislature to pass a bill that bans ALL sitting members of congress from seeking re-election should they exceed the budget.
Remove corperations from govt . Rfk Jr.
@@monkeysezbegood Better off removing government from corporations
David Friedberg is the best. I respect his opinions enormously.
And the work he’s doing to increase the productivity of agriculture will probably save millions of lives over the long run.
But he’s wrong when he says our economic situation is improved by government intervention. Some, who didn’t earn it, are better off, but that comes at other people’s expense.
Watches this all the way thru, it was so much more interesting than I thought it would be. 👏 Thank you
Great explanations, thanks for this
Anyone with a brain can understand this...the government should never be allowed to have fiat debt
Ponzi scheme
It’s really not hard to grasp. Folks who would NEVER allow themselves and their family to fall into debt have zero problem with the government going into tremendous debt. The US government is a rental car.
Most people have no idea where or how government gets or utilizes money. Its like a child getting money from Dad at the carnival.
21:49 yeah until these greedy corporations decided to produce more and still increase prices. Greed has to be stopped.
So stop buying what the corporations are selling! End of corporation, end of problem.
You believe that corporations were less greedy in 2019. Then in 2021 corporations became extra greedy. Then in 2023 through 2024 corporations became less greedy again on a month-over-month basis?
Any scientific backing for these wild claims? How are you measuring "greed" and how many additional units of greed do corporations have compared to pre-pandemic levels of greed?
Bible says that in the end times the desire for money/wealth (greed) will be infinite.
@@LegalAutomation It has nothing to do with greed, businesses need to make a profit otherwise what's the point, when the fed creates a lot of money that action devalues the dollar so businesses have no choice but to raise their prices to make a profit
Greed is a two way street, isn’t it. Who is funding these “greedy” people? Why don’t they stop funding them?
My brain acts most like the two people on this show. Thank you for putting together a good show!
Comparing one fiat currency against another, and saying one has gone up in value against the other, is like being on a sinking ship in the ocean and looking across at another ship that is sinking faster, and thinking you are being lifted up. In this scenario something with intrinsic value, like gold, can be compared to dry land, which is not sinking.
More valuable than gold would be to buy the currency of the sinking ship that comes from the country where the oil that powers those ships comes from.

The question is does the money printing make the war inevitable, or is the desire for the war why they print the money? I think it’s the latter.
seems so cyclical.
wars themself cause mass deficits due to gov spending, debt etc.. however wars also stimulate economies and post war reconstruction efforts stimulate exports... and the cycle goes on.. and on.. and on...
draw a timeline of US wars and budget status it's interesting.
something like this:
1939 1944 1949 1954 1959 1964 1969 1974 1979 1984
|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|------------|------------|
|--WWII--| |-----Korea-----| |---Vietnam---| |---Gulf War---|
|---Deficit---| |---Surplus---| |-----Deficit-----|---Surplus---| |---Deficit---| |---Surplus---|
It's more likely that they print at least some of the money as a consequence ultimately of demographics (as Raoul Pal and others have argued for a while now) - to compensate for lower workforce participation, which has been trending lower for 50 years. And the money printing now is part of the debt refi cycle that Michael Howell has been talking about for ages. Of course not denying some of the money printing is also in aid of the military-industrial complex and their kleptocracy
@@mwilliamson4198 money printing is inflationary, not deflationary. It does not compensate for low economic participation, it makes those issues worse.
Wait a minute! Does this guy think there is a politician who ACTUALLY gives a shit about the debt? Funny stuff!
Obviously they do. It’s in the interest of politicians and plutocrats to preserve the financial solvency of the US.
@@garythecyclingnerd6219
Not necessarily. If the US cripples (similar to the soviet union) there will be an insane amount of almost free investments. A handful of people would actually benefit massively. When most people lose wealth some get a huge part of that lost wealth. I see i it quite similar to the energy preservetion
Yes. RFK. You haven't been paying attention. Do better.
@@garythecyclingnerd6219 Not when their funders who have placed them are aiming to collapse the US economy to cause chaos to make it easy for complete capture.
@@japorto100 I can’t overstate how patently evil and stupid you have to be to believe that blowing up the the world’s biggest economy and reserve currency will be beneficial to you.
Love David 👏, you Tom and Mr Churchill, great show
I learned a lot from this conversation! Thank you!
The Saudis didn't renew our PETROL DOLLAR Contract that we've had for 75 Years
😕
This is fake news and it never existed in the first place
ofcourse because of Brics
What contract? All of Social Media repeats this but Nobody seems to be able to produce a copy. It seems they ALWAYS accepted other currencies.
You mean the handshake agreement, they broke immediately?
The Saudi’s are not our allies.
Great video.
I was a process control engineer (just retired 2/21/24) I would always stress test my projects just to make sure it would work under all conditions.
Also depending on the government.
But I found away of earning more income despite my Retirement. $47k weekly returns has been life changing, after so much struggles.
wow this awesome 👏 I'm 37 and have been looking for ways to be successful, please how do I make such weekly??
@@babytruca02Maria Angelina Alexander I really appreciate her efforts and transparency.
My outlook on money changed when I realized someone making $200K can retire broke & someone making $80K can retire a millionaire. With the current market movement.
You're correct!! I make a lot of money without relying on the government.
Investing in stocks and digital currencies is beneficial at this moment.
I heard a CNBC news host spoke highly big about this name and her strategies, how she has been helpful to many people. Been trying to reach her since.
...into a BRICS wall.
Which is failing lol. The Saudi’s didn’t even actually get off the dollar.
LOL Facts
Peso is a more likely our new replacement, you know, cause that solid southern border.

@@garythecyclingnerd6219 how many more countries are on board since a couple years ago
David is amazing and always look forward to his perspective
I think the most important part of this whole discussion was in the last 15 minutes about civil discourse and being willing to talk/associate/interact with people who may not think exactly like you. We've lost that lately, and we need to recapture it. It's okay to disagree, and you can like people and enjoy their company without having to be alike. That's how we learn.
