They call it "monetary policy"... we call it a slow-motion wealth transfer... the $39T debt isn't a bug... it's a feature

But the resistance is organizing... thanks in part to #C4SM @4SoundMoney

This Thursday, 7pm ET Jar @CryptoJar_Net and I are talking with Daniel Diaz @MiningLifeCEO... he's on the front lines of the legislative fight to restore #SoundMoney in America

Join us for an insider's view of the sound money rebellion

Maryland has just made history.

In a stunning 132-0 unanimous vote, the House of Delegates passed HB 1312, advancing legislation to recognize gold and silver as legal tender, while a Maryland Senate committee also moved forward on ending sales tax on gold and silver.

Even more shocking? It’s happening in a "blue state," signaling a massive shift in the national Sound Money movement.

In this episode, Daniel Diaz is joined by Dr. Eric Snyder to break down the "Maryland Miracle," discussing the specific lobbying strategies used to educate legislators, why the repeal of sales tax on bullion is a game-changer for local businesses, and how this victory provides a blueprint for the rest of the country.

Premieres TONIGHT at 7pm EST!

BREAKING: ANOTHER UNANIMOUS WIN FOR SOUND MONEY IN MARYLAND!

The momentum is officially a tidal wave! SB309 just passed out of committee with a UNANIMOUS vote, moving Maryland one step closer to ELIMINATING all sales tax on gold and silver!

Even more exciting: The bill is gaining massive bipartisan support, picking up several new Democratic sponsors as the state unites behind financial freedom and protecting citizens' purchasing power.

Next stop: The Senate floor!

Blocking people when the argument gets difficult is pretty typical behavior from socialists; when the ideas can’t be defended, the conversation gets shut down instead. It’s the same instinct behind attempts to suppress speech when they encounter arguments they don’t like.

The problem with your framing from the start is that it assumes the only options are communism or fascism. That’s a false dichotomy. The classical liberal tradition rejected both systems.

Thinkers like Mises, Hayek, and Friedman criticized socialism and fascism for the same underlying reason; both concentrate economic decision making in the state.

Under socialism the state owns the means of production. Under fascism the state directs and controls industry while leaving nominal ownership in private hands. In practice both systems subordinate the market to political power.

That creates the same fundamental problem Mises identified in the economic calculation argument. Without free market prices emerging from voluntary exchange, planners cannot rationally allocate resources in a complex economy. They have no reliable way to determine relative scarcity, opportunity cost, or efficient capital allocation.

The result is exactly what history shows; shortages, surpluses, misallocated capital, corruption, and eventually coercion to force the system to function.

Socialist systems collapsed under these calculation and incentive problems. Fascist systems suffered the same fate because economic decisions were subordinated to political priorities rather than market signals.

That’s why classical liberals rejected both models. Liberal societies built on private property, voluntary exchange, and decentralized decision making consistently produced the most prosperous and stable economies in history.

So opposing communism does not imply support for fascism. It reflects the classical liberal position that both are forms of collectivism that concentrate power in the state and ultimately undermine economic freedom and individual liberty.

Liberty is fragile, rare, and historically abnormal.

Americans take it for granted precisely because we inherited it rather than clawed it back from terror.

If our light ever goes out, I doubt the world will see another like it.

I’m having an internal argument I don’t have a clean answer to, and I want to put it out there.

Resistance to tyranny is morally justified.
But telling oppressed people to “just rise up” ignores reality.

Even when intervention “works,” outcomes are uncertain.

No foreign power can give another nation freedom.
At best, it can remove an obstacle and hope the people are ready.

That burden can’t be outsourced.

Received my 1/2oz of KAS digital silver for becoming a Pioneer Gold member on the C4SM platform. It was only $100.00 to become a member and I got a 1/2oz of free digital silver. @Stellar should get involved in this.

@4SoundMoney @BobMurphyEcon It’s an amazing interview!

[Citizens for Sound Money @4SoundMoney]

What makes a society truly free? Most people point to elections, rights, or constitutions… but almost no one talks about the foundation that makes all of those things possible: sound money.

Daniel Diaz sits down with renowned economist @BobMurphyEcon to explore how the structure of money shapes the structure of society itself.

Premieres tonight at 7pm EST!

Bitcoin is down $14,000 since I posted this. I sounded the warning and got mocked for it. This is how people react when their bias is challenged. Echo chambers are never a good idea - always consider alternate views.
