Anyway, getting back to the things that are going on here in America. The process that a lot of us elders, I guess is what we would consider to the young people today. They haven't got a clue. All they know is that I suppose when they get out of their public pool system, is to get a job at McDonald's or someplace. It's that industrial age idea, like I keep saying, that somebody's out there to provide them with a job. Although when our forefathers came over here, they were looking for anything, of course, they were looking for jobs as well. The objective would be to keep beans and weenies on the table while you're trying to figure out what position you're going to play in society, what kind of business you're going to open up. or something along those lines. But nothing like what we're looking at. Today they are so brainwashed. You know, okay, we gotta go to college. And as somebody was pointing out, okay, we got all these degrees, spent all this money on college, and there's still no job. One of the colleges, I think it was Yale or somebody, was getting sued because they guaranteed their college graduates that everybody would have a job within a year from graduating from Yale. and of course nobody was getting jobs so people started to sue dead dropped sentence was well do you have a job yeah I work at McDonald's well there you go we promised you you would have a job you see solid deception and of course they're not teaching anything in these schools today that would benefit people in life and any by any stretch of the imagination it it's incredible anyway back to you Art so What would you, if you were going to suggest something to somebody, what path to take for example, what path would you advise after witnessing, I'm not sure of your age, I think you're in my age group, but what would you suggest for young people today, what path would you suggest that they take? I think I'm probably the last person to give that kind of advice because it knows I've been a major screw up most of my life, but you know for me it's a case of find something you like focus on it and be the best you can have it right and you know don't worry about if somebody else is better than you are because you're going to be better than others others are going to be better than you nobody's going to be the best at any one thing but find something you like work hard at it excel at it be the best that you can be and you know just just There's no easy way in life, and if you're waiting on somebody to give you something, you're going to be waiting for an awful long time because by the time somebody gives you something, it's really not going to be what you actually really wanted, and probably not going to be what you needed. And this whole concept of you've got to have a degree, no you don't. All you have to do is have a desire to learn. and excel. And if you have those two things, there's nothing you can't accomplish. I was a ninth grade dropout. I dropped out of the ninth grade. And I worked in McDonald's. It was one of my first jobs. I worked on a dairy farm. I did all kinds of different work. I worked in a textile factory where we made t-shirts. I did all kinds of different things until finally one day I found something I really enjoyed which was construction. There you go. And go to college to learn how to use a speed square and all of these other things. I just simply walked onto a job where I needed a job. And I walked onto a job site and I knew I can run a skill saw, I can do a hammer, I can read a tape measure, I can use a torpedo level, I know these things. And the guy gave me a job and I started out pumping lumber for the carpenters. Back then, and don't take offense in this, folks, but back then in those days, you were called a boardnegger. And what you did was the carpenter would tell you what he needed, the lumber, and you still did it, be it a two by four, a two by two, a one by six, a piece of plywood, whatever. And you would carry the lumber to the carpenters, and that's what you did. That's how I started out. And after about about, I don't know, 891. I got bumped to a carpenter's helper and it took me about a year later I became a carpenter and I just worked my way up until eventually I was supervising my own crew after about four years. Yeah well I was just going to say it takes about five years to get in the groove and after that you're qualified. When I first came to Cameo, Idaho you have to imagine man I got out of the trucking business sold off all the equipment. And the only thing I came out here was my tools. And I wasn't really sure, you know, it was a whole big change in life for me because I spent 20 years building a trucking company. And now I wasn't sure what I was going to do. Well, because of being in the trucking business, you know, I had some mechanic skills. So I went down into town and I rented a shop, a building. And what I intended on doing was working on big trucks because that would be my forte, obviously, after 20 years. But what we ended up working on was lots and lots and lots of four wheel drives. So we ended up working on cars. And you know folks, I'll tell you I was scared to death. I didn't know if this was going to work out or what. But I just put what I had learned in my life to use. And before I knew it, we had vehicles parked all around us. And we had more work. The shop was full. We could put seven cars in the building at a time. And the shop was full and people lined up outside. And at the time, I had the shop open for five years. And at the time I didn't know it, but I was putting two other businesses down in town. I had no idea what was going on. I was just doing what I needed to do. And in all those years, those five years that I was there. We had one vehicle come back, one, and the only reason it came back is because one of the rocker studs had pulled out of the head on a new engine, which had nothing to do with us at all, but we still had to fix it. Here's the thing, Gil, you and I come from a much different time period. You know, and when I got into construction, I had no idea that this was going to be my lifelong thing. Of course, I still stayed with the restaurant. Because my mom and I both owned it. We owned the restaurant together for quite some time. But my primary, my main field of expertise was in construction. And I'm not an expert by any means. It's just that was what I focused on. But the one thing I learned, and you found this out because you said you moved in all you took was your tools. Well, I learned when I got into construction, you apply yourself and you really learn the trade. All you have to do is have your tools. And if you have your own tools and you have that skill, you can go anywhere and get a job. And I'll tell you what, I spent 27 years. Now, the only thing I will admit to is I am over 50. That's all I will admit to. I won't go any further than to admit I've seen a half a century come and go. Okay? But I spent 27 years calling me homeless. Okay? All I had was my backpack and my tool belt. And I traveled this country for 27 years and I was never, no, never without work. No matter where I went, I could always find a job because I knew that I had the skills that I could walk onto any construction site anywhere in this country and get a job. Right. Because I had the skills. I had no college. I was a ninth grade dropout with a criminal record. But because I had a skill and I had my tools. I could go anywhere in this country and get a job. And I spent 47 years just traveling and working. Today's mental position is I'm Joe, I'm here, pay me big money even though I don't have any skills. What have you done? Nothing. I haven't done anything. But I'm here to get that $15 an hour or what have you. That's today's mentality. Well, that was the issue that we had with my nephew when he was I think he was about 17 or 18, fresh out of high school, didn't have any kind of work experience or whatever, and he had people offering him jobs left and right because they knew me, they knew his mother, they knew my family because my family was then in that area for about 10 generations, so we come with a long history in that area. and they knew he was fresh out of high school, they knew he needed a job and they were going to offer him a job to help him get started but he kept turning down the job and I asked him, I said, Ricky, why are you taking these jobs? Well, they're not offering me enough. I said, what are you talking about? The guy just offered you a job starting pay and this was about 15 years ago, starting pay ten dollars an hour. Oh, that's not enough. I need at least fifteen before I think about it. I'm like, dude, you've got to know what you're doing. You're not bringing anything to the table. Yeah, what did he bring to the table? Nothing. It took him about two years of it. And finally, him being told, pack yourself and get out. We're not going to afford you anymore before he finally took the job. When he was finally faced with the becoming homeless, He finally took a job at $10 an hour and in two years he was making $20. You have to begin somewhere. Like I say, that's America's mentality today. Just give me the money. I've always joked around and said that America's ultimate job. You work Monday through Friday, you get $30 an hour, you show up at 11.30 in the morning, take a half hour lunch break and go home. and pick up your check on Friday. You know, I actually, if you can believe this, I put a guy to work one time, a kid, you know, I thought, okay, a kid, he seems a little bit, you know, somewhat ambitious. So one day we're in the shop and I gave him a $100 bill, I said, I need you to run up to the parts store, grab us some parts and bring him back. I said, okay. So he left and of course I was busy and Bobby and my other guy, we were busy and you know, after a while I said, hey man, What happened to that kid? He said, I don't know man, but I could use the part. So here he comes wandering back two hours later. I said, man, where in the hell have you been? Oh, my girlfriend works at this store. So I stopped to visit with my girlfriend. What'd you do? Was that a girl? What'd you buy you over there? Alright, fine. Give me the part. So we put the part, you know, and the part was like a $30 part or something. And then it wasn't until the next morning I realized he didn't give me my change. So the next morning I said, hey man, where's my change from yesterday? Oh well I spent it. I said what? You spent the change. I said okay man, I said well you can consider your ass terminated. He said well can you go ahead and give me my paycheck? I said well you've only been here for a couple of days and you've already spent more than you've earned so I think we can just call it good right here and just get your ass out the door. I mean really man that's the kind of people you're dealing with today. Here's another one. There was a time I was between jobs. And I moved because I had just recently married and my wife didn't want to move to where I was living so I had to move to... And so, of course, I had to quit my job and move and so now I'm kind of between jobs. Well, I took a job at a restaurant just until I could find something in construction. Right, you got to do something. I took it for fun to get paid. But, you know, I'm a pretty good cook, so I'll take this job as a cook until I find something in construction where I can be happy. And I was there for about three months, and the crew leader got fired for stealing. And because I had proven myself, they offered me the position of crew leader. I was okay, fine, whatever. And one of the craziest things is you got some young snot-nosed boogerhead. You know, you tell them, okay, I need you to go out in the lobby and do the trash. And you know, it's not like you have the same person do it every time. You get this person does it this time, okay, you do it this time, okay, you do it this time. And you kind of like everybody gets a chance to, you know, to do the garbage. Right. Clean the lobby, whatever. The dining area, lobby, whatever you want to call it. So you look at one and you say, okay, you're not doing anything right now. Would you do me a... So, give me a biggie and go out and do the lobby real quick while we're slow so we get it done and out of the way before we get hit with our next brush. And this little young boogerhead looked at me and said, that ain't my job. You know my answer to that is, your job is whatever I tell you to do and that's why you're here. We're here, we pay you for your time. and you've agreed to do what we asked you to do, you have no job description so just do what you told her to leave. I fully understand what it is that you're saying, that's not my job. Well, okay, what is your job? They tend to pick out the favorite things, the things that ain't quite so common is what they do. Well, you know, it's like, what do you mean? Well, I'm a cook. You're a cook. That means you can't clean. That's what you're telling me. Because you're a cook, you can't clean. Well, the truth be known, the cook is responsible for a lot of things besides cooking. Yeah. But I mean, this is the mentality of a lot of these. That's not my job. They want the money, but they don't want to look. Exactly. That's exactly where they are. Like I said, they'd be happy to come in at 11.30, take a half hour lunch, go home. I'd be back Friday to pick up their paychecks. That's where America is. Anybody think you are? No work ethic anymore, Matt. Yeah, no there's not. This is what the public pool system has brought to us. Kids are waiting for their parents to die for the ones that are left so they can inherit whatever they work for but they have no intention of working. I have an older son, I'm ashamed to admit this, but I have an older son. I got a divorce early on. And of course I'm in Minnesota, you know, I got trucks, I got a big shop, I got all this going on. So he came and visited a time or two, but all he was interested in, you know, running around, you had a car and you go see his friends. And one day he realized that, you know, I was selling everything off. And he said to me, he said, you know, I thought that I might inherit that. I said, I bet you did. But I said, I've tried to get you involved in what I do here. and all that's involved, I said we're talking hundreds of thousands of dollars here and you've shown no interest whatsoever but I should just hand it over to you? Just give it to you and watch you drive it into the ground? Yeah. I've offered you many opportunities to get in here and to shop. If you can't work on the trucks, know how to dispatch them, how to find a load, any of that stuff, all I would be handing you is a meal ticket for as long as it lasted. I had some friends of mine one time. There was an older couple, they were getting up in the years and they wanted to retire and they had twice as many trucks as I had. And they turned it all over to their son and they bought a little condo down in Orlando, Florida and they were just going to do that little retirement thing that they dreamed about for so long. In one year, in one year, the son had everything so screwed up they lost all the trucks, they had to come back to Minnesota and drive for somebody else and to make the money to pay for their condo in one year. So that was an indicator to me. Anyway, appreciate your call, John. Thanks for calling in. You know, this is the mindset of America. You know, this is what we're looking at. You know, people don't put any value in anything. They just want instant gratification. I mean, right here, right now. You know, I remember a time in my life, this is what kept me going. I'm sure maybe some of you had the same experience. At one point in my life, I was a very young man. But at one point in my life, you know, I'd left home and you know, I'm gonna go out and do this and I had a little job working at the gas station for a guy named Mr. Sullivan, which was a pretty cool guy. But I remember coming home to my little mobile home that I had rented and I was so proud of. Opening the refrigerator door and all I had to eat was a bottle of ketchup. That's it. And I thought to myself, man, I don't think this is working. So, shamefully, I went and asked my mother, is it okay if I... I moved back home for a while because this wasn't working out. The money wasn't there. So I went back home. I spent another year there. And then the second time when I launched, I was up and moving. I was up and gone. But, you know, there again, if you don't have a family to go back to, and there's no family foundation, you know, like I've mentioned it many times, you know, the family farm. should always be there in case you go out into the world, doesn't work out, you can go back to the family farm and take care of business. Always have a place to go, but you know people, they don't have any stability today. There's no stability whatsoever. There's people that bought houses that are making payments on it, that are losing their jobs. Families have all fallen apart. There's no place for anybody to go, so everybody's moving, moving, moving, moving, and they're renting things, and it's all a temporary, well it's not even closely related to stability, period. not even close. And so, you know, it's like, well, like this neighborhood, I'll get up and move out. You know, so there's no reason for you to vote for anything, complain about anything. You know, I'll just, I'll just move. And you go from one neighborhood to the next to the next. This is the world that they've created. There is no stability in mankind's life at this point. Everybody's totally disconnected from everything that they really need. Totally disconnected. They think they need a job. Not really, man. You need to do something for yourself. I've mentioned a million times, you know, I can't imagine. I wish I could talk to her because by the time I found out my God rest her soul, my grandmother had passed away on. There was 66, 67, somewhere 66, I think. But my mother explained to me one time, yeah, you know, back here in the profession, you know, they had the victory gardens and they had this, you know, your grandmother used to make lampshades to make a little extra money. I couldn't imagine what the hell kind of money she was making, making lampshades. Today if you were asked about lampshades, nobody would even know to go. Where to find a lampshade? Maybe Walmart or something. But here my grandmother made lampshades to keep a little extra money for whatever. I have no idea how much it paid. I can't imagine that it was a whole lot. But they're willing just to do whatever you can do or have to do. You know like Art was talking about there for a few minutes. Talking about oh man. I deserve $15 an hour. You know you don't deserve anything you haven't done anything yet You haven't brought anything to the table now if you get in there you start off the ground You know they realize oh man this guy really knows this stuff. You know here's a man Here's something I did in life When I lived in South Carolina, I went and applied for a job up in the Naval base up in Goose Creek just outside of Charleston They needed a painter. I said, I can paint. I'm thinking in my mind, hey, paintbrush, paint, what's the big deal? So they gave me the job. So of course, I did like every other dummy does, who doesn't know anything about painting, I stick the paintbrush in there, wipe all the paint off, and I'm painting away. And the guy comes over and he says, man, how long have you been painting? And I said, oh, about 20 minutes now. And of course, this job paid good money. So they called me back into the office and they said, well how much experience do you really have? I said, well you know I needed a job man, I just, you know, but one of the other, you know, a little more of a pro painter if you will, he was giving me some tips on how to paint and you know, do it, go down the line, you know, without getting paint all over everything. And he says, I'm sorry man, we're going to have to let you go because we thought you were a painter and we need somebody who can paint faster and better and all this. But, you know, learn a few things, come back and see us. We just need somebody a little higher on the ladder. And I appreciated what they told me and they appreciated the fact that I was going to say anything I could do to get a job. I just needed the money. But they could tell right away, I had no skills when it came to painting houses and this kind of, because that's what we were doing. We were painting houses on the military base. You have to be willing to try and do something for anybody. I listen to a driver going down the road one day, he's talking about, yeah man, I used to belong to the union, I drove for XXX, a freight company, and you know, maybe they paid me $30 a second. But I got laid off and you know, it's been six months and my you know My uh, unemployment ran out and this happened off So I had to get a job driving truck for some private carrier and I'm not making as much money And I picked up the mic. I said, you know, at least you're doing something It's better than nothing But for some reason, you know, the America has this mentality, you know, like our point is out and it's not limited to anybody Oh Well, I'm not going to do that unless you pay me, you know, 20, 30 dollars an hour. I need a job, but I'm not going to take it unless it pays this much. You know, I don't know if people realize there's not, you know, this little wage and the minimum wage that we just got. I mean, have you been reading the statistics? Obama was, you know, helping out America, man, he's going to raise the minimum wage. Well, there's little small companies out there that are trying to struggle by matching Social Security. paying unemployment taxes, paying the wages of the driving unit, and then he has to go raise his prices. Okay, here's where America is right now. There's been over a million plus, you know, a million five hundred thousand jobs lost because of the wage, minimum wage increase. We lost a million and a half jobs. Oh, well, how did that happen? Well, I'll tell you how it happened. It happened because those little businesses that were on the fringe barely getting along because they're trying to meet all the requirements of the government Well when you show something up just a little bit farther man, it tends to create a collapse And so really what took place was a million five hundred thousand businesses just I can't hold water no more So really you think Obama did us a favor of any kind was attack the little guy. That's it Because again, like I said earlier the the people who Let's go to Henry real quick and give him a send there. Good morning, Henry. Good morning. I'm going to have to disagree with you this morning. I don't think that going to be fine is our pride. Our natural resources belong to all of us. These international corporations have moved in here and taken over our natural resources. What made you think that I would have people go out and work for Volarize? Well, I mean, do something. At some point in the ballgame when they're pumping the third one, you have to say, no, there's not going to be any more work. What we need is to shut down our ports. this country and stop the resources out of this country manufacturing here. If they had the manufacture being taken out of our country, how do you pronounce it? No, if we had to manufacture all the things that are being imported, not exported. What? If we were manufacturing the things that are being imported, not exported, we definitely want to export. No, we were manufacturing our raw materials that are being exported out of this country by the billions in those factories over in NAFTA that we paid to move over there. The fellow that was working in that, now working down at Lowe's for $10 a You see what I'm saying here? I do. The thing is, the trade-off here was supposed to be, if you wanted to manufacture in this country, what do the people get out of that, those raw resources? They do belong to us. The Indians here where I live get a check every month. It's called an annuity check because they belong to us. Well, you're going to get a real good. Now they're here taking us 110%. And shouldn't $10 an hour won't feed your family. And they're stealing the richest kind of planet Earth. It belongs to us. Well, I tell you what, if there's nothing available, I would work for $10 an hour. That's what it took. I picked oranges and I've done everything you can imagine. But the bottom line is, we're being stolen. Yeah, I agree with that. But you know, here's what we've witnessed. What we've witnessed is we came in, they built up this industrial complex and the unions and all the, you know, everything that took place, now all the industrial has left and we're all sitting here with this industrial mindset. that does not exist anymore, that somebody owes us a job. And so we need to shed that off and start doing things for itself. Like you're saying, I agree, if I want to sell things overseas, that's what I will do. But the import, like right now, we're feeding all our food that we're eating right now is mainly imported. And if we were growing that food and we had our own farm, we wouldn't need the importing. And it's all the Chinese crap that's coming into this country that's importing and coming in and coming in. So they're flooding us with crap from other countries. Exactly, but what do they build in that crap out of? Our natural resources out of this country and taking it over to China. It's the equivalent of buying this country from the Indians with glass beads. Yeah, we're paying for the bullets that they're shooting at us. I understand. I really do. Well, and another thing. the depression my grandparents uh... my dad was involved in the pressure my grandpa but but what's the jenya family farm really equate that to today either because they had far more access to our natural resources with what they did in the people who need you know i've got a job but he could step up right start a bit way it could happen but i've said for years you have to pick a location but you can't be people you know the biggest thing is that they will be a little one point for the material of the uh... online as you pick a dot on the for $140,000 doing now issue two. In fact, we just had a conversation on that. Why are the Amish out building public than you used to see? Screwing us across the portion, it's going to screw regime. Can it make, you know, make money to actually generate revenue? And that's why you're seeing them out there. It's not that they want to go out and all want to get off the farm. They have to find us and continue to make, make up their own communities. We have to be thinking the same way. How does the invader operate? They drop oil and then the oil spreads. get to the point and this is the thing, because immediately somebody says, well, we might have to fight or they do this. Yes, you're going to have to fight. You know, that's why people don't like me, because here's how it works. Do you have something that's of value? Yes. Do you have people who covet what you have that is of value? Yes. Are they going to try and steal it? Yes. Why worth fighting for? Well, I was just reading yesterday, the state of Utah. gave the federal government till I think it's January. Yeah, gave them notice. They want their two thirds of their land back that the federal government is filling. Basically, the equation is the same here for the state of Idaho. The federal is controlling two thirds of the state of Idaho and it's time for the states to start taking back control of those resources that Henry's talking about and using them for ourselves because they're being wasted. They're being wasted. They're being given a way to take everyone over to the interests. And maybe somebody will elect a governor, although I wouldn't be part of that election process, but if somebody would put a governor and say, you know, the hell with the feds, let's start doing something for ourselves and start creating atmosphere. Hey, we want you people to start little businesses. I don't know, maybe making wicker chairs or golf balls, tennis shoes, whatever the hell it amounts to, and start building a state that is productive. Instead of giving away two-thirds of the state, the other third gets whatever jobs are available and the rest of them can suck mud and stay on a welfare or some kind of assistance, what have you. That's the system that the feds have created. So until the time that somebody wakes up and said, look, man, we need to take our state back, apparently Utah's on the track, take those two-thirds of resources back and start utilizing them, to be productive because all the states that we're looking at right now, name one state that is productive at any level.

We're down here the... well, we're past the bottom of the hour. And you're listening to the morning intel report. Fine, let me get here. Okay, why don't you? Okay. You know, the kind of things that America is facing today is, you know, it's been a... the gradualism. For example, I was in the transportation business when the whole transaction of loading live food, I call it live food, right out of the fields, out the farms here in this country, and hauling it into the market, and then we made a transition where now we run down to boat docks and get it off the boat, you know, coming in from Chile, South America, wherever, and then those go to the market. So you see lines of trucks sitting there waiting at the boat docks. for food to come in. We're being fed all the things that we've outlawed in this country, all the DDT and all this. They've circumvented and got past that by importing from other countries. And we have no idea what kind of feces they're growing that food in. But we're sitting here eating it on a daily basis. This goes on and has been going on for a very long time I remember when they sold emptied out all the grain elevators along the Mississippi I don't know if any of you remember that but I do because that particular year that particular season There was a lot of rain in the Mississippi River is way up and it's so Far up I forget how many feet it went up here, but the barges and the boats of the Tugs couldn't get underneath the bridges So they had a hell of a backup and what took place was they started loading trucks out here to Cargill in Seattle. And they had pictures of it in the newspaper where trucks were lined up for miles trying to get the beans and the corn and the wheat off the trucks or they were putting those on barges and shipping them over to Japan and wherever the hell else they were going. At one point in this country we had a year's food supply for every American in America. Now they don't even have the equivalent of a half a loaf of bread for every American. You know what happened to you? You know if you look at the history, I mean read the Bible there. What was everybody concerned about? Oh food! Oh the droughts and all you know the food supply back back during the 30s 1930s. What happened in the Ukraine? Well the Ukraine had plenty of grain and wheat, corn, all those things. 30 million people died of starvation while those elevators were full. They were guarded with soldiers Wouldn't let people get to the food supply. I would say that not going to be solved like and if it's like what they did with the ending they can and then they come in and they take the notion that they have the right to land they've regulated you right out of your property right right exact and until we can access our resources which belong to us if I want like if I want to go out the woods and pick mushrooms or now they want you to get a Well, it's those that have been in positions of power for a decision making process of some kind that have, well you know, I mean how stupid is it when somebody stands there and says, wow man we got to get rid of all this money because if we don't, we won't get our allotment for, you know, they'll cut us down because last year we got two million dollars and if we don't, we didn't spend it all so now we got to spend it so we can get another two million dollars. I mean look at the logic in that, the line of thinking. Well, if they gave you $2 million and you only spent $500,000, I would say you don't need any money for another three years. Another three years. But no, we'll go ahead and waste this so we can get another allotment. Well, we have to do a step back and take a look at reality. The reality is all of this country is inheriting the people. If I can't, and you can't regulate me without violating our bill of rights, how could we ever... Well with that said, who is in a position to delegate power to anybody? Exactly correct. And if this country was run with absoluarsment of the bill of... Well it's people that said, you know, it's like signing your contract. Give up your rights, sign here, and it allows me to slap you in the face every five seconds for the rest of your life. We never gave this government... So at one point is America going to stand up and say, hey we've had enough of this crap? Well, it'd be like the Russians when they're standing in lines about two miles long to get a little they might figure it out. Well you know, here's the thing, okay we're looking at right now the ruble is collapsing again. The last time it collapsed, you know, they had cartoons, you know, people rolling wheel barrels full of rubles in to buy a loaf of bread that was not available by the way. Because there was no grain and wheat and those kind of things. So it didn't matter how much money you had, you couldn't buy anything because it hadn't been grown or planted or what have you. We'll witness the same thing. We've talked about it many times. The grocery stores are on a three-day rollover. That's what they're on. If I was to get on the microphone and say right now, hey man, big food shooters, nothing else is coming in. Grab what you can. Poof them, man. They'd be empty in an hour. Well, this whole thing with the Russian government, with the Russians' economy going bad and this trouble with the rule, that's all a sham too. Because for the last 10 years, the Russians and the Chinese have been by and started another international currency. And you know, the dollar is the problem. We're the ones. Yeah, they are trying to collapse the dollar. I understand that. And then if they accomplish that, are we going to be using Rubles again? Or what are we going to be using? Frank's? Mark's? What? You know, it's a... But you know, for the general population, they don't care. Because they don't get to see that. They just every month they get that check with a number on it, you know, that promise to pay. And they're happy. Exactly. And I'm going to jump out. Alright, thank you for your call Henry. The things that have been done to America at this point are so overwhelming. It's incredible. How do you educate a population that is unwilling to listen? How do you do that? It can't be done. I've got another caller, make it quick. We've got Ed in Texas there. Good morning Ed. I don't know if Dad's still there, but the whole thing about the grain not being there, being grown, the Ukrainian at the time, it was grown. The only problem was as soon as it was harvested, it was exported to pay off their natural debt to the bankers that they had gotten into the agreement with. Right, they stole it from the country. That's the problem with having your currency based on something like that. It's the same problem that we're seeing with the oil. That's why approval is collapsing right now. Well, that's it. Your currency right now is based on oil. That's where it's at. They've shifted from gold to oil. That's where the world is today. And you could say, well, you could just as well say as much as gold is going down in value, apparently so is the oil. Yeah, yeah. Here's my problem, like I said. listening in the Patriot movement when you bought your gold for $230 an ounce? How are you losing a penny $100 an ounce right now and that's not even more than that. Ask yourself this, just real quick on the, where the losing, he was making money hand over fist and now in this country is poor, you're able to exchange that piece of metal and trade it for $1,200 worth of digits? Show me one of your other pieces of paper out there you might have been told to invest in that you can do that with right now. How many times did we warn people about 401ks? You know they've run that collapse racket on 401ks three times? They're right back into it and then they steal it completely? Yeah, you put $100,000 or $500,000 in, we're gonna give you $20,000 or $6,000 and you better be happy because otherwise we could take it all. I invested all the... Yeah, shut up. There are certain things that are foundational stuff you need to think about. We just transit, like I was saying. The thing is, Grains and commodities, or any commodity, when they go from real commodities, from actual, tangible, physical wealth, a paper which contaminated commodities. That's why commodities are not the place to go now either, because it's all this fiction with no substrates. There's nothing behind it. Go ahead. you can't get into futures because futures is a fiction in the first place. Exactly. It's an estimated growth. Right. It may or may not happen. So it is not a stable investment. It never is. What? Because drought happens, light can happen, anything can happen to that. It's just like the oil fields. Well, we've got an estimate, we can estimate that we're going to find this much more oil. Have we found more oil fields? No. We do know that to a degree the planet reproduces it. But you know, there's no guarantee that it's going to be reproduced as fast as we, the demand is. So the oil in and of itself is a joke, but the oil in and of itself is a pump up at an elevated market, just like the, uh, We talk about the diamonds being one of the bones propped up in elevated markets. If you take a look at oil prices, you know, we're not paying much more for oil than we were in the past. What it is, is all the state and federal regulation taxes, it's more the feds and the space. in most cases. Once you take off all those, all the regulation taxes and everything they put on it, we are not paying, we're paying what, $1.25 per gallon per gas in most states just Just for the gas. Everything else on top of that where you get these four or five dollar marks are the state taxes. When you've seen it cut down to be like a dollar 25 where you can actually buy for that at the pump, you realize that you're only paying like 25 cents a gallon per gas like you used to. But your pay, all this extra stuff on top of it is the state regulation and EPA BS that we've got to pay. I agree, that's the part that nobody sees, it's not something that they can see. So now here we are in America, we were having a discussion here the other day, transportation cost has obviously gone down. Gas here right now I think is 255 gallons. So that's down about a dollar or something. Okay, so you think that they you think it's a cut you think that groceries would be cheaper or products would be cheaper No, they're not going to come down Nothing is going to come down the cost of transportation can fall through the floor But the prices for the roof for the food and all this is not going to come down So if anybody's waiting for that to take place you have a long wait my friends because they are getting exactly what they want for their products and And sadly enough, whether it's genetically modified food or garbage in a box, it really isn't worth consuming to begin with. And that's in retrospect is causing all of the obesity and diseases that we're suffering from today. You know, now the big push is gluten. Gluten free this and gluten free that. Well, you have a government says, oh, we got to do something about all these fat people, but they are not attacking the people that are producing the food. They're attacking the people that are fat. I mean, but you couldn't expect anything less from an idiot government. That's the way it is. So here we are in America today thinking, oh man, the prices of gas going down. What a relief. There's no relief there, my friends. You'll have to witness that in the past they gave you this and took that. I mean, look at this Obamacare. What do you think that's all about? Insurance companies are collapsing. People are losing their health insurance, all this. What do you think is taking place there? Well, we're going to give you some free medical care. There's nothing free about it. It's the highest and biggest tax hike in American history. I love that one too, Joe. Yeah, it's free health care, but if you don't get it, we're going to charge Yeah, exactly. If you can't afford to get our free healthcare, we're going to penalize you with more taxes. That's right. Makes a lot of sense, right? It's free. How come I have to afford it? What do you mean? I'm still paying for it? Yes, you are. And if you can't pay for it, we're going to charge you more. What sense does that make? It doesn't make any sense. There's nothing going on right now that makes any sense whatsoever. The idea, my friends, for those of you out there listening, is to ground yourself. Don't worry about what's going on in the world. Ground yourself. Get what you need and prepare for whatever is going to take place. But you have to grind. If you go out and get lost in all the shuffle, everything that's going on, the health care program, you're going to worry about, well, I don't have $1,500 to pay on a fine that's present I couldn't afford to be given. That makes sense, right? People can't afford to pay into their free health program, so we'll find them for more money that they didn't have. What did we see coming? Gee, I don't know. I remember back when the people living on welfare and stuff had a better medical plan than anybody they could afford to buy any kind of medical or something. And so now under, what, Obamacare, they will be supplied with medical care, and what was their fine? How much do they have to pay if they don't pay? That's like a gentleman that I know, he got a divorce years ago and he didn't pay his child support, etc. So he goes down, he had something happen so he gets a disability, social security, whatever. So here you have the system paying him his social security and disability, whatever. And then one day he gets a note in the mail, he said, hey man, you didn't pay your child support, so we're deducting, you know, I don't know, $600 a month or something, whatever it was. And I thought, well hey, that's kind of cool. You didn't pay anything. Now they're paying you and they're saying we're taking back our money. Did it cost him anything to begin with? No. It didn't cost him a dime. The same person that's paying him is paying themselves with the same check. Now I don't know what kind of a magician they have in Washington there But to me that doesn't make any sense Okay, we're gonna come and take your Social security we're gonna you're gonna pay this child support Okay, man, I've been hurt my feelings. You're gonna use the money that you're giving to me to pay you Okay, good go for it, but that's the kind of things that are taking place We're up here at the top of the hour gentlemen. I got another hour here out of the mark if you have time to stick around Okay. This is especially critical. If you're talking about rebuilding, we have to set the standards. We do. Well, anywhere else in the world, people understand how to do this. Only in America, through a public pool system, has been a complete failure. Have we seen this programming to failure, which is what's going from wash our hands off and get out with being free. Everybody's going to have to do their part. The music here in a moment, I think. That's the Republic. That's the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen, the Empire is on the run. And we're on the march, night and day. Hey, by the way, the new ad for Jeff talking about those breakable gold pieces, right? Guys? This is a Vite! What? Does everybody know why they call them paces of Vite? Why? Do a little history, guys. There's a homework assignment. We'll talk more about that tomorrow, but let's just put it this way. The key word is eight, and like, separable and uniform in weights and measures. You could... Oh, wait a minute. It will be iced paces if you broke it up. And like what they're talking about, what Jeff's offering right now, guys. Right. We're gonna go. Thank you, sir. All right. Thank you, Mark. And, folks, stay tuned. I'll be taking the next hour here for Jeff Eddard here on Mike Liberty and all that jazz. And we'll be right back. I want you to listen to me. I'm gonna say this again. I did not sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. Never told anybody to lie. Not a single time.
