    I still blame the FEDs for this, because in the end they benefit by either buying off the failed banks cheaper or something. The fed can print credit as long as someone will borrow it into existence, but they cannot print product (or production).

      You're right! Now that the market is in decline, I know what I want to do, but I'm not sure which stocks to buy, which investments would yield the best profits, etc. The potential gain is greater due to the risk, and professionals are better at negotiating such exact contracts. Right?

      Very true, I started investing in 2018 with no prior knowledge or expertise, and by the end of 2019 I had earned a profit of approximately $750k. I had simply been following the guidance provided to me by my financial adviser. This shows that you don't even need to be a great investor or put in a lot of effort; all you actually need is a professional to help you.

    The wall street journal had an article a few weeks back that was shocking to me. It broke the American population up into fifths by income. It then looked at % employment between those quintiles. The bottom 1/5th is 36% employed and makes on average $6900 per year but after taxes and social benefits nets $48000 per year. The 2nd 5th had 85% employment and made $32,000 per year. After taxes and social benefit netting $50,000. The 3rd 5th is 92% employed and after taxes nets $61,000. Seems like our government is doing a pretty good job of leveling the playing field. Makes me wonder why people work so hard if they can go on the assistance and live almost as well.

While that may seem like a lot to someone earning and keeping $60k, it's a punch in the gut to have a husband and wife work decade's and pay school loans only to lose such a huge percentage to the govt.

    I hate to say it, but it's probably gonna get worse before it gets better. Even with a new president and republican elections, it's gonna take a few years to save our beautiful country. God help us all, God Bless America 🇺🇸 !

    I could listen to him all day long. He’s one of the very wise we still have left. So let’s appreciate him while we still have him.

    I can never reconcile the fact that collectively we might be everything but individually we are worthless.

    Stalin once said he was going to grind the middle class between the millstones of taxation and inflation.

    It goes way past all that. The great middle class seems to prefer “peaceful slavery”. The sad truth is when tyranny arises within the people fail to recognise it.

    Victor is the best. I sit in the Midwest farming I also operate a Land improvement business and keep a few trucks on the road. I also have a bachelor’s degree in engineering and yes I am one of Hillary’s deplorable’s. Victor puts into words what we have been saying for a long time, what a fine gentleman.

    Excellent video Victor. I also enjoy your contributions to The Epoch Times. I am 66 years old, white, straight, married and a Republican voter. I've worked hard my entire life and have been successful in my career. I obey the laws and support the concept of ":Law and Order:" So you can imagine all the hateful and nasty names that leftists have for me and all of the other "forgotten men and women".
