The Monetary Matrix
On this week's episode we take the Red Pill to see how deep the Rabbit Hole goes.
Is Money the most marketable commodity chosen by the free market?
Or is it merely the token demanded as tribute by the Sovereign?
After initially discussing the Madness surrounding the Drone sightings in NJ, the UK and Germany, as well as the never ending calls for the failure of America due to higher interest rates, we view a presentation I recently gave at the New Orleans Investment Conference to help asnwer the questions above.
The link below will take you to the website for the conference where you can access all the other fantastic presentations that were given.

The Global Monetary System works the same way as a game of Musical Chairs. And when the Music stops, there is nothing more important than grabbbing a Chair.

    @Brent - Yes, I've read "Debt...". What you say makes sense. I don't like it and I don't have to. My question is "how do I put wheels on that?" I'm not sure how to apply this.

    Very Gnostic/Alchemical-Hermetic view of being a wage slave in the West, not saying it isn’t a correct impression, but that the “Matrix” film and post-film cultural colloquialism relies on the notion that we are trapped by a demiurge unbeknownst to us, until we get “red-pilled.”

    People were engaged and YOU were engaged when you made that joke about Peter S. Do that. Educate people with parables, jokes and impossible situations. They will remember you and forget their university boring teachers. Aside from this, most of the video gave the rolling eyes opportunity (if people knew who Peter S. is, they definitely didn't care about the definition of money, only powerful investment filters. Today, people hardly can do that successfully, but watching AI shifting trading strategies becomes better than the Game of Thrones. Last but not least, don't promote yourself too obviously, it's not elegant

  • @ChevyEquinox-e4i

    Oh yeah, Brent. The US Government should disclose the full offensive/defensive capabilities of the drones they're testing over NJ/NY/etc, developed at the cost of millions/billions $$$, just to satisfy you. Makes perfect fucking sense.

  • @nacetroy

    Never saw the film “The International” but when Brent said ‘Umberto Calvini” my attuned conspiracy ears pricked up. Name is too similar to Roberto Calvi, dubbed “God's Banker” likely killed by order of Propaganda Due, aka the P2 Lodge, Masonic and working with the Jesuits of the Vatican. Wonder why the current pope is a communist? Because it’s all dirty and has been since the Jesuits became a controlling force.

    Brent. Your comment about other countries wanting to take over and be the world hegemony? Did you ever consider that they dont? and that all the "evil" out there is made up so that the US gov't can justify continued military/deficit spending OUTSIDE the US, allowing everything to crumble within, so as to keep growing the US Empire? Yeah, think about it.

    Make up a "crisis" and pass pre-prepared legislation. The sheeple in this country are so gullible. "The "FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018" expires on December 20th of this year. So the Federal Government is literally using a terrorism drone mystery psyop against you to manipulate Congress into passing the new H.R.8610 (Counter-UAS Authority Security, Safety, and Reauthorization Act of 2024) which will include appropriations and enhanced government powers to control you, and they're even going so far as to use it to push for acts of war against other countries."

    Yes, as a fellow cynic I apprecite the presentation! My friends and family look at things from the "what I want" point of view and refuse to accept the reality that we're not in control, never have been, and never will be. Focused on the "technology" that surrounds them they trundle along believing that putting someone 'different" in charge will change their situation for the better.

    This system uses DEBT as money. Maybe you can extinguish debt with debt by the velocity of money. But I doubt it. And whatever money is, it has not been chosen by the free market but by the state for tax payments. Money is two different things. 1) Whatever the government you live under say it is 2) Something that will be accepted to trade with other jurisdictions. The US empire is one jurisdiction. And in it, dollar is money. The only interesting thing for "2)" is what is accepted to trade in and out of that jurisdiction. maybe the only REAL, objective money, is what different armed jurisdictions with competing interests will accept as medium of exchange between one another?

    Money is a hoax to steal labor, life, liberty, happiness from one person and transfer that to another. The hoax has many many forms all serving the same purpose, stealing life. Buddhist monks are not allowed to use money because of its duplicitous and evil nature of being a form of theft. Unborn children are sold into debt slavery in America as a theft. Their life is stolen. This is an evil form of child abuse selling people into slavery. Nobody cares. What's in it for me? Evil people do harm for self gain.

    Although its very difficult and takes vast amounts of knowledge regarding accountability, We The People can live separate and uncontracted of the state. But, divorcing the state takes time and lots of legal notices sent to state entities. Its unconventional but also very liberating!!! May I suggest the channels: YouAreLaw and Ace of Coins, previously Privacy Fight. And keep an open mind.

    1. The treasuries the Fed has on its balance sheet were bought before the Fed started raising rates. They're as upside down ie have the same gargantuan declines in the treasury price and unrealized losses as the banks have on their treasuries and balance sheets. The Fed just doesn't report unrealized losses. Bottom line,... higher rates aren't a benefit to the Fed. 2. Do you really think that the taxes on the interest on the deficits pays for the deficits? Or the interest paid on the deficits (received by businesses and consumers) contributes much to stimulate the economy,.. above and beyond the deficits that generate the interest? I mean it's a 20 to 1 ratio,... deficit to interest. 3. Love the Dollar Milkshake Theory,, but,.. using fictional movies as foundations or examples for morals or logic or real lessons of life is a bad foundation. They're not real. You use true stories for foundations,.. because they're really real and happen under the real forces of nature,.. not Hollywood imagination. This presentation is too much symbolism and not enough real earth logic. Stick to common sense and reality. Money is whatever 2 parties agree it is in their transaction.
