If you combine:
1. A high income
2. Low monthly expenses
3. Taxable brokerage with S&P 500 focused index funds
4. A paid off used car
5. No desire to impress strangers
...You will become uncomfortably wealthy.
Bitcoin will hit $1M while half the population is still saying “it has no intrinsic value” from the driver’s seat of a financed 2013 Kia outside a Chipotle where the burrito costs $31.47.
Marco Rubio: "For years to come, there are many people on the right...that are going to be having to explain and justify how they fell into this trap of supporting Donald Trump because this is not going to end well.” (2016)
@IPretend2Know@TheAliceSmith Mob rule? Like government today? Mandatory lockdowns, invasion of privacy in private communications, taxation under the threat of incarceration, flock cameras, restricted speech, medical injections to join society, Epstein Island, and the list goes on.
This is TODAYS REALITY.
@IPretend2Know@TheAliceSmith Freedom works in practice exactly how those who understand it believe it should work.
Suffering occurs. It’s not utopia. Tragedies cannot all be avoided. People will be mean to each other at times. Neighbors may violate you at times.
None of that is worse than today’s reality.
I feel like it’s finally safe to say this out loud: The COVID era was a time of staggering overreach and repeated, official betrayal. They took our freedom, our livelihoods, and our trust, and no one has answered for it.
We were forced into isolation, fueling a massive psychological crisis. Beaches, parks, and trails where transmission was virtually impossible were closed, ignoring the crucial role of sunlight and Vitamin D for immune function.
The government and employers forced vaccine mandates, making millions choose between a medical treatment lacking long-term safety data and their ability to feed their families. Meanwhile, pharmaceutical companies were granted total immunity from liability.
If you had a severe vaccine reaction, you were on your own. When people tried to share these stories of big tech silenced them and deleted their accounts.
The architects of these policies, like Dr. Fauci, shifted goalposts constantly. He received a preemptive presidential pardon from Joe Biden, and when recently questioned by Congress, pleaded the Fifth Amendment 111 times.
The biggest failure? We knew early on that metabolic dysfunction was a massive risk factor for severe COVID. Yet public health officials stayed completely silent on the importance of quality food, exercise, and true metabolic resilience.
Instagram deleted my account in 2021 for pointing all of these things out. YouTube deleted multiple videos on these topics.
We all lost something during those years. Whether it was someone you loved, your job, your sovereignty, or your health... I am truly sorry for your loss.
If all of this makes you angry, you’re my kind of people.
Let's make sure this never happens again.
bitcoin:native just pumped $16,000 in ONE WEEK.
Four years ago, an entire Bitcoin was worth $15,500.
I don’t think people comprehend how violent the upside can get.
If you don’t hold the politicians you support accountable—if you think your team should violate the Rule of Law because the other team did—if you think all that matters is winning—then you should expect nothing short of routine corruption from the people you elect.
Novak Djokovic in his documentary on why he refused the COVID vaccine:
"Because I didn't need it. Why should I get the vaccine? I'm healthy, I'm an athlete. I had corona. I had immunity. I wasn't a threat to anyone. There was no reason for me to get vaccinated. It's my freedom to choose which that fundamental right that you have as a human being on this planet — the freedom to choose — which was taken from a lot of people."
Are you going to do something today to extricate yourself and your progeny from central bank debt slavery, or will you get successfully distracted by stupid, inconsequential bullshit, again?
Republicans control the presidency, the Senate, the House, the popular vote, and a friendly Supreme Court.
And they still can’t pass their own agenda or even appear to try. The SAVE America Act sits there collecting dust.
Completely paralyzed. Completely uninterested in winning.
This will be remembered as a generational fumble.
I was incredibly concerned with the debt.
Now I get it.
It’s never going down.
The budget will never get balanced.
Both parties don’t care and if they say they do they are lying.
Fighting about taxes is silly.
We can’t tax our way out of it.
There isn’t enough tax revenue to be extracted.
We are going to print our way out of it.
5% real inflation forever.
What’s 40 trillion in debt if we inflate the gdp to 100 trillion?
It’s the only choice.
Both sides want to keep spending.
My thesis the next 30 years:
The dollar will be worth less tomorrow than today.
The government will promise anything and spend everything.
Plan accordingly.
Flock allegedly spotted this Colorado woman's truck around the time and location of a package theft.
What ensued was a Kafkaesque scene in which she insisted it wasn't her, while an officer who came to her door said he had indisputable proof—but refused to show her unless she admitted she stole the package.
"It is her, it is 100 percent, it is locked in, there is zero doubt," he tells her.
But police dropped the case after she provided her cellphone tracking data, camera footage from her truck, and video placing her elsewhere at the time of the theft
