Even having assets is now protection from a taxation system aimed at taking your acquired wealth. What happens if in 5 years time you are forced from your 4-bedroom home as a sole occupier? This is communism; it starts and it builds (but not back and not better!)
It is nothing but Corporate Fascism.. The corporate capitalism has been allowed to grow unchecked the result is inequality and the plundering of the planet earth.. The earth is no longer a livable place. They have become more powerful than you can think..
@OBrien333 I know one guy who lived in a publicly subsidized mansion , rode in a publicly subsidized limo , flew in the worlds most extravagant airplane (also publicly subsidized) was protected by a publicly subsidized security force and he didn't pay a fucking penny in taxes while occasionally boasting about it but then hiding his tax returns .
The "transfer of wealth" occurred before inflation really took hold. When the country was locked down, small and mid size businesses could not operate(many no longer exist) while mega corporations were left generally unaffected. People were given far fewer options with respect to how/where to spend their money, and major corporations not only had the cash reserves to weather the storm but were also not expected to play by the same rules as other businesses. This resulted in record profits for companies like Amazon and Wal-Mart among others. Billionaires-with the help of daddy government-made out like bandits. So while you're correct about inflation effectively acting as a tax on working people that ultimately benefits the extremely wealthy(not to mention the government with respect to interest rates on various loans and lines of credit), the transfer, or fleecing of the working class, has basically occurred in two acts, with inflation being the second.
I'd add a third act of all of the quantitative easing (which was act 1) since the financial collapse. All of the money printing (and for the pandemic too) went to the ownership class. The stimulus during the pandemic was explicitly to guarantee property owners received their rent (guaranteed profits), large corporations would have their products purchased, etc. Laws could have been written very differently, like not having to pay rent during the crisis, etc.
@@eduardos8895 thanks to a formidable propaganda machine along social ostracism if you dared question anything : psychological harassment of the masses, since the leverage of social medias (along mainstream medias that are now owned by a small clique since the "concentration" of the 1990's), allowed them to do so.
I learned all this too late, because I was busy building real world skills which I value. It's utterly depressing discovering how the entire financial system really works.
@Dino Sauro No dude. There are no humble jobs or humble people deserving more. The ones who are smart or are wise and get education or plan their lives should have more money than the lazy ones who just want a job. Not just "they should" but that it is biology, if it's not like that we go against nature, and more than anything else humans are nature. What has to change is the system with central banks and dirty politicans bribed by dirty billionaires. Having a good idea should allow to get a loan at the bank to start a business, the same if you have an income and want to buy a house or a car etc
Two points: 1st is the pandemic didn't cause the economic problem. People's fears and their responses to the pandemic caused the issue. 2nd is that we're not mad at the rich for being rich. We're mad at them and our politicians for the unadulterated corporatism that is now a signature of what used to be capitalism based democracies.
Instead of people…you should have been more specific…governments caused this problem. They should have let people and businesses sort things out for themselves during the pandemic.
covid caused the economic crisis was a revised narrative put in play almost immediately. Covid not government measures that were shown to not be effective as other solutions. Create the problem, offer the solution. There's a lot I don't know but if I had to guess, I'd say the proverbial captains of this ship saw the iceberg, didn't tell anyone else, told the waiters to keep serving drinks until it was too late and the iceberg was visible to everyone. Not only that but in the timeframe between the captain's seeing the iceberg and the vessel crashing, they managed to engineer a lovely narrative to exclude themselves from any fault or accountability. And almost by a miracle there's an empty boat adjacent to the first boat called the great reset 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You're asleep the pandemic was engirneed to cause the problem wake up there the ones causing the problems if you can't see that then your eyes are wide shut truth is stranger than fiction they live
“Don’t blame the billionaires, blame the game,” but what if the billionaires own and direct the game? Unlimited wealth = unlimited power, the game itself is an illusion.
This is misinformation. She touched on this idea for a moment in the video about politicians who pass laws in their favor, but not everyone is like this.

They certainly do to a large degree. You think anyone actually gives a flying one about some useless politician's book? That advance is just a vehicle to disguise a payoff, much like a seat on the board of a company when they leave office. An air of legitimacy to a corrupt practice.
I so appreciate how perceptive you are. It's so easy to get people riled up against a person perceived as an enemy. I DO think that kind of propaganda is done on purpose to deflect attention on what's truly broken. And I am grateful to you, Sorelle, for your mission to put power back in the hands of the people by educating them on how this broken financial system works. You ought to mention that the Federal Reserve just prints money as it likes - while if WE do it, it's called "counterfeit" and punished as a crime. Another video, perhaps?

You are correct about inflation. Locally in TEN years, 2 bed houses have increased in (market) value by 100k GBP. The properties are untouched and in worse condition but going for stupid prices.
Homes in the greater Toronto area have gone up 1mil in the last 10 years. Even tear down homes are going for a million here. The crash will be epic, almost 2029.
The problem with the ‘new money’ created is that it goes directly into repo markets, free money for the banks and the stock markets. Only a pittance was sent to the people and labeled ‘relief’. If a significant amount of the real money ‘printed’ (on computers) had touched our hands in an impactful way, you’d never see a slow down in buying. I know bc I was in a very fortunate situation with my husband being a veteran getting paid at 💯 disability but we still qualifying for the boast. For us it was wonderful but for most, it barely scratched the surfaces and dried up very quickly. It was an obscene amount of free money that was created and waisted; and now we’re being gaslit to think we had a real hand in spending it all and creating inflation.
I agree it makes a Huge influx of commercial value towards something without giving it a set point of said value, instead it changes with everyday that passes it seems almost as if crypto currency and NFTS Were Possibly Made Only To Fail For The Ones Buying It But Not The Ones At The Top Who Own The Business And Can Sell It At Their Own Value With It Then Decreasing Dramatically As It Then Blows Over To The Next Pyramid Scheme -JACK
Regardless of who the money funnels through, Blackrock and the boys get paid for every single transaction. ALL capital market monies absolutely funnel through the WEF friendlies, with the rest of the 1% subjugated to them. The predominant huge controlling middle class has been getting squeezed out for decades and we knew it was, and exactly why it was. Now it’s gone but it was the way to kill small biz, like the pandemic has done, and inflation/recession will continue to due. Poverty is the biggest influencer to the subjugation of the masses, along with famine. Too many coincidences, UBI, digital ID, tracking systems, and now we all MUST BUY corporate run products and services… forcing the transfer of wealth away from the 99%. Avoid corporate consumption, open small biz without gov or becoming incorporated…community private lending and trade and coordinated labour force. Pay taxes and work hard for your community. Just sayin’
if that was the case ,then inflation would be worse than already is ,same goods and services plus 6 trillion in debt for the people to spend in the market = inflation on consumer goods would be way higher ,the reason that barely scratched the surfaces was the printing money in the first place ,theres no free lunch ,no free money ,its debt and youre gonna pay it now for years
Yeah, simple solutius are briliant, but they have this small issue that in reality they dont work, because reality is to complex for "catch-all" single-cut rules. For example "all regulations are wrong" is a pseudo-religious dogma chanted by neoclassics, but some regulations are needed - food quality, traffic rules, legal system,... Or - after events like Katrina - let free hand solve it, no help, that would be anomaly? These simple rules sound so nice, but then it hits reality. And reality is not a 2D chart.
I don't know why this is so hard to understand for most people, it is kinda obvious. I talked to a lot of people about this, and they just can't make the connection. It's like they are standing in a dark room and we try to light up the room, but even if they manage to hit the switch they only realize there is a disconnect in the circuit, so they remain in darkness.
Cantillon Effect. Those closest to the money printer are enriched. Love your analogy. I actually used the exact same analogy at a speaking event regarding Bitcoin a couple weeks ago. I stated that if there is only $100 in existence and you wanted to buy a steak that cost $10, that would mean that the steak takes 10% of the money supply. So if the money printer created $900 and gives it to a friend, how much would that steak cost? The answer, all $100 of your dollars as everything is to a degree priced as a % of the money supply. When people grasp this, that money is a measure of value, not actual value, then eyes will open.
I’ve been working in social enterprises my entire career. I agree we can’t just blame billionaires, but as an entrepreneur one of the greatest joys is being able to pay people a living wage and treat them with respect. You don’t make billions of dollars by paying your labor force dignified wages. I’ve never understood the greed gap. Life is too short to be a greedy ass hole. Share the monetary love y’all.

Well.. vote Democrat. So these billionaires can control everything. That's what Biden is pushing for. NWO WEF One world government. They still won't pay taxes and Americans with even a modest paycheck will become the 1% paying taxes... oh wait.... inflation. It's already started
I live in a country where: - the government taxes my wage between 30 and 45%... - The rich barely pay any tax at all... - The lazy that don't work receive a monthly funding from our government... Guess I'll blame all three these group!
Thank you Sorelle for explaining inflation in terms anyone can understand. Swaying people to hate the wealthy is what governments do well because very few people are willing to even talk about money, let alone learn how it is created and how it works. That ignorance is costly over the average persons' lifetime which is why so many people start poor, live poor and die poor, bequeathing nothing to their heirs, who only repeat the cycle.
@Résumé Also she doesn´t mention where that inflation is coming from and that during teh start of teh pandemic inflatiuon was really low. When I watched the last of her videos where she recommended to buy bitcoin to avoid inflation I knew it was a grift.
@@steam_bigh8899 actually I don’t mind Elon trying to get us on another planet. It’s the people like bill gates being the largest farmland owner in the US and wants everyone to eat grass instead of meat.
@@stephengirling7859 Welp, misspelled. Happens. My time thinking has been pretty much well spent so far. Can't complain. If you spent the same amount of time thinking about other people's finances thinking about yours, maybe you wouldn't even have to check anyone else.
Inflation is the cost of today's goods at tomorrow's prices. When your consumption exceeds your savings and investments, you will eventually go broke. This is what governments have engineered throughout the world.
This is why people being pleased with raising of the minimum wage is so cringe. They actually think that will make them wealthier, when it's just the opposite.
Be very very wary when a large corporation voluntarily agrees to increase base pay for their low ranking employees. It's about control and putting the small competitor out of business. In the end, the consumer loses and the corporation wins.
Finally someone who isn’t preaching the eat the rich mentality. Thank you for actually taking time to explain the intricacies of how money works. Bravo

I’m near retirement age. After working 40 years I think my superannuation (I’m Australian) is in jeopardy. Taking into account the current circumstances of the economy and potential for conflict growth affecting it further in the only way it can; detrimentally (I’m a veteran too). I don’t have diversity in stocks or shares and distrust the risk being promoted online. However, I find your analysis refreshingly honest and illuminating. Keep up the good work and I hope we all prosper despite the challenges ahead.
Thank you for this video Sorelle, Well although the world is falling apart I still believe that there is a hope as people we can make the world a better place.
Sorelle, thank you so much. I am unsure my daughters are listening to me. But they will listen to you. The real magic is that most people don't understand this.
New subscriber here! You're putting in words some things I thought were the actual case, but couldn't quite put my finger on them. Looking forward to learning lots more from your channel, and Thank you!
@Drumcula I do agree but she has given us a deeper insight into a portion of a truth that is often obscured. We may not get to the full picture, but at least we are trying. We'll never get to any truths unless we try and are willing to dispel our preconceptions as needed. I welcome anyone who is brave enough to dive a little deeper and explore the rational along the way ✨️
Thank you. This was intelligent and informative. I can also see the issue with billionaires not being directly in charge of printing more money, BUT then gaining enough cash and power to influence the game even more in their own favour. Let's also not forget that many billionaires gain that cash through pure greed and exploitation as well, Amazon's owner comes to mind.
There is no economic system tailored to fit the financially challenged ideas of wealth distribution. Nor should the wealthy be obligated to slow down for them. Prosperity is a right given to all. Wether or not they learn how to use it is their decision. But to call the financially shrewd unfair and penalize them simply because they understand economics and take legal advantage of it is the real crime. It is because of the wealthys works that opportunities for the less financially savy to grow. That's capitalism. It makes better products and services and a larger variety at a lower costs, while creating more jobs. It's only the greedy that want to monopolize and change it, making a less efficient product that doesn't support consumer needs and even and more expensive.and they use the ignorant to get their change needed.
But the corporation don't like it, they need to you to buy. The world economic system is built on consumption. Whether your eat all those things you buy or put them in a garage full of useless trinkets doesn't matter. The message that is constantly preached, the message that is so ubiquitous that it is seldom questioned is want more, buy more. Economic growth depends on greed to fuel the growth and it's a system the requires growth or it fails. Only problem is nothing grows forever.
True but the race car driver loves the game and chips in to keep it the way it is or even worst bribe the owners to rig it more in his favor. It's a vicious cycle. As long as greed and ego exist, humanity will keep getting more corrupt until the day it decides to put an end to itself and that may happen very soon, the great reset might be that tipping point.
Stunning video, from messaging to editing, everything is insanely well done. As for the message, I could not agree more. Whenever "the rich" are finger pointed at as the culprits it puts entire populations in victim mentality, which is the worst thing to be doing. This creates abominations like communism and nazism. The sooner we collectively understand that it is the system that is rigged, without the finger pointing, the sooner we can heal as a world. Of course it's easy to point blame on others, it seems like it would also come with an easy solution, but it's so far from the truth. I adore you guys for being such a voice of reason, sanity and ultimately healing. I think you'll be studied in textbooks decades from now. Love you so much!
@@douchebag0073 what I would say here is not "the rich" because that is a blanket statement that includes all rich people. Sorelle would be considered rich as well, but she didn't have any say in that. Words are tremendously important, much more than we may even consider. So with my world view I would make a point to rephrrase your statement into: "some of the rich people who wanted more power" or "some people afflicted with money sought more power to consolidate their gains, as their world view implies that otherwise they would suffer great consequences". "Some people with a lot of money wanted even more because they became addicted to it". As you can see, this is much more nuanced and leads to less feeling of separation. Those "rich people" are not some misterious aliens that came to this planet in search of money. They are a product of our society. A society that is built on unhealthily systems. Who is to say that you or I would have made a different choice were we to live in their shoes, with the same upbringing and conditioning? This was my point in the previous comment. As long as we point fingers, looking for the scape goat, this problem will perpetuate till eternity, because the core of it is untouched. We go round and round in circles. And these circles produce unspeakable horrors, justified by the perpetrators as "seeking justice" because it was "the rich" that rigged the game. Not that we all blindly agree to give our power and free will to a broken system. Not that we chose every single day to disregard how powerful we can actually be (which also comes with some pretty hardcore shadow work) and instead, we again and again choose to be soothed by the idea that we are just the victims and we have absolutely no responsibility in this. This is why I think @SORELLEAMORE will be mentioned in textbooks in future decades. Because she sees the actual mechanism and she is bringing education and awareness, to empower people to take responsibility for this society that we are all co-createing. She is part of a mass movement of radical responsibility and I fucking love that I was born to live in these epic times and witness history in the making. Lots of love to you fellow human! Xx
I noticed you made an unnecessarily long reply to my comment, I guess to dissuade a response from me. I suggest you also read Nicholas Penn's comment as well. I find it comical that you chose to critic my grammar to reply to my comment, and BTW you misspelled the word mysterious. Money is a tool and has no real value, it was soley created to control the masses. Perhaps you may be correct, and I would have made similar choices had I had a similar upbringing as those of the well to do, but that would still not validate my greed or those of the rich. Furthermore the working class are the victims, in the 70's the average CEO pay was equivalent to 20× the average employee, today the average CEO pay is more than 320× the average employee. Also legitimate inflation, in most cases, is temporary issue not a perpetual one as the ruling class would have the working class to believe.
@@douchebag0073 dear one, I did not mean to critique your language and your response is very welcome. I think what I am saying is getting lost in translation 😄 by the way, English is not my first language and considering I think I did pretty well there🥰. I do not mean to justify any wrong doing from those you classify as "the rich". My parents are working class and so was everyone around me. I grew up in Romania, a former comunist country who is now getting pillaged by "the rich". At the same time, my ancestors were war refugees and some were political prisoners for having been perceived at one point by the communist agenda as "the rich". Yes, I agree those people are continuing to rig the game in their own interest, but what I merely wanted to express is that I think it is time we start to look a bit deeper at the causes. Why is it that in our current system, 90% of those who get in power end up rigging the game more? They are the product of our society, are they not? They come from our school systems, from our belief system, from our own traumas. I guess my take on it is a more philosophical and yours is more looking at the way things are from the pragmatic understanding. I think there is room for both. The other thing I would like to add here is: this is just a written comment. The voice in my head reading this is loving and kind and I have no control over what the tone of voice you will perceive at the time you read this, as it is all very much up to your beliefs and mood at the time. I wish you a beautiful day and thank you for your comments as they gave me the opportunity to express something that I had been contemplating for a long time. All the best!
Well, that explained the real estate bubble. I was wondering about that. I always figured that the 1% were pointing at the super-rich to avoid people noticing that they're the ones making the rules in the first place. What I'm never sure about is whether the 1% understand that inflation harms those who can't keep up or whether they actually really think that it somehow works out because of rising tides or something. They other thing I hate is how they go on about the beleaguered middle class as if low-income people can somehow manage but the middle class (I assume they're talking about middle-income earners, not the professional class) are helpless and don't know how to budget.
The real estate bubble was driven by banks writing mortgages. When commercial banks make loans they create money. In normal times this is the REAL source of inflation. Blaming the Fed or the government is a popular distraction. Strictly speaking, most governments debar themselves from money creation; what they actually do is borrow money stagnating in the financial sector by selling bonds and spend it into to real economy. Much of this results in real production of goods. When banks create mortgages they create credit. Pushing this credit into a limited stock of housing standing on a limited amount of available land inflates those assets
In history, the king rarely starves with his people. He decides his right to comfort means more than their right to life. History has always been and will likely always be that way.
Been a subscriber for two months, your content is superb. This video is probably the best of the lot. Inflation is almost like tax on tax minus the goods received.
The Irish President says the selfishness of the wealthiest people and the great division of wealth causes the current financial crises. Yet, he earns more than the US president although he only presides over less than 1.5% of the US population. He will also have a huge combination pension from his parliamentary positions and his presidency. What does that make him?
First misrepresent, then distract and finally give them a new boogie man. There's incredible effort going into keeping folks confused. Congratulations! You're killing it!
The government officials and the central banks benefit the most. The government officials get kick backs from printing billions. The central banks get interest on top of all that money printing that is printed from air.
Politicians are in the 1% group. And remember every human is consumer. As an example, McDonald's sells hamburgers people are willing to buy. People buy from amazon, & Microsoft If people stopped buying, there would be no company
An explanation for why assets increase at such a greater rate than inflation would be enlightening. Where does the excess in cash come from that drives the price of the inflation fighting assets comes from? Something must be sold to transfer the value to the new assets classes. Keep up the excellent presentations! THX

Excellent and concise analysis. I would enjoy hearing your views on Capitalisms vs Socialism especially since so many kids in college and university are being told by their professors that capitalisms is the cause of many or the evils in the modern world.
I enjoyed this video and found it super informative so thank you! One part that I would like more context / information on from your economic perspective is how impactful corporate or billionaire lobbying is and how that potentially plays into the equation of who’s at fault (if it does at all in your view). I’m not looking for a catch-all scapegoat for everything or anything like that - undoubtedly modern politicians deserve quite a bit of blame for often self-serving or otherwise spineless / out-of-touch responses to social needs… but their actions also often appear to be in response to lobbying efforts or donor funding which is where, at least for myself, a primary frustration with the rich lies: they’re not just the sports car driver that playing within the rules of the game set forth by politicians… but rather it seems like they are actively pressuring the politicians to change the game itself to ensure continued individual prosperity, you know? Anyway, sincerely appreciate the informative content as always! Would love to hear your opinion / expertise / thoughts on the topic and how it pertains to this video down the road someday!
I feel tight in chest to know that Ive got a lot to figure out financially but feels a little releif to know and learn all aspects thoroughly, because of your knowledge and clarity
Sometimes I hate to say “I told ya so” but I did tell the people I know. I told everyone the pumping of money into the economy under the guise of a “stimulus package” would comeback to bite us. But what do we do? Continually vote in the same lame politicians that want to destroy our economy, making us poorer and the wealthy richer. The very people they blame, besides the ultra wealthy are themselves, because somehow being a politician these days equals wealth. And then what does the world do? Look up to them as if they are heroes. It’s an Enigma…..
There's no way many politicians should be worth more than a handful of millions of dollars depending on how long their career has been but when you see they are worth 50 - 100's of millions then you know they are all up in the insider trading, tax fund theft and generally writing legislation for their own benefits. I'd argue there's very few good people's among the world's politicians.
@@chrishermans Correct! They gave too much money but then shut down the country so no one could work, unless your in healthcare or another “essential.” It was intentional. Globalization is coming.
"stimulus" made from money created out of thin air is as real as trying to empty a swimming pool by filling buckets from one side of the pool and dumping it in the other. You can't stimulate the economy by devaluing the currency via bescumbering dollars into the ether.
The app for investing in Art was not relevant for non-US citizens. Also it’s very risky and you most likely won’t withdraw you money. Plus everything is in USD which can crush in value any time
Inflation didn’t steal money. The people who decided it was a good idea to print and print money and stop production created inflation intentionally. They knew what would happen it wasn’t no accident. Why is it every government solution to every problem benefits either government funding or big business? Just by chance? I don’t think so. I don’t know who pulls the strings but it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that the world is being direct by big business, including banks & government. Which are so intertwined as to be almost the same entity. And don’t forget the justification for handing the power of money over to private business was to give a stable dollar yet there hasn’t been a year yet in my country that the dollar didn’t lose at least 2.5% in value.
Wow! nice job of breaking down a complex issue into basic, easily consumable economics. Love the part about assets -- this should def be an area people invest to protect themselves from times like these
Sorelle, you explain inflation so well. To hear we are having high inflation is one thing, but to understand it the way you have has opens my eyes to a clear understanding. I love you videos, insight and you vision. Thank you.
How does printing more money make the economy more stable? People still have to work. It's not like the extra printed money is being given away for free.
Good basic explanation of inflation for nonprofessionals (laymen). However, the economy is a complex dynamic system. So, you really should at least also explain, how cost-push inflation differs from demand-pull inflation (and this asset-price inflation). Then how taxation (and transfers) might mitigate some of the (pareto)effects (you imply). This historical increase of central bank liquidity ("Quantitative Easing", transmission mechanisms, etc.) after the 2008 financial crisis, could (and should) have been handled very differently. So, you're quite right. This has been the greatest "transfer of wealth" (ripoff) in history. I said that over a decade ago. Now, in this hight dept situation, increasing rates might well become (finalise) a financial massacre, on a larger scale.
I’ve learned so much about economics from you. Just finished a Econ class in college and didn’t have to really study the entire semester. Got a ‘B’ btw. You make finance so digestible, so I have to give to props. Also, I would love to meet you one day. I don’t know if you fancy fan meetups, but I would definitely attend.
Thank you for making these videos in the most unbiased way, leaving the viewer with suggestions instead of absolute claims (even though I would agree with those claims), but this way, I can show your videos to "normies" and they won't reject them right away
As someone without a lot of money, I have felt this pretty hard. Groceries are so much more than they were a year ago. But most people know this. And yet the guys that got us in this situation are still in power.
Generally speaking, democracy is just plutocracy with extra steps. The plutocratic elites own the politicians, which makes them directly responsible for their (monetary and fiscal) policies. So yes, we can and should blame the billionaires.
Thanks Sorelle. Perfect work. You address cause and effect very well. Please don’t stop exposing the elitists. This is a perfect storm for Klaus to execute das digital ID and UBI, and the rest of his nightmare. You are touching on pieces of the the big picture. Lots of 1984 stuff being introduced (ie. Toronto’s Google Sidewalk Labs IOT and carbon footprint tracing… smoke and mirrors… you know.) Stay well and thanks kindly.
To be fair, a timeshare Picasso is pretty based. Pitchforks are very affordable, and listening to rich, out of touch capitalists about how to fix the fallout from rampant global capitalism is like asking the arsonist to grab a firehose.
Why is Wealth Inequality a problem? This question is never addressed, it's just asserted that it is a problem with no explanation or justification. There will always be inequality, everything is unequal right from the moment you are conceived. Pursuit of equality has always led to awful results. But the idea that "Wealth Inequality" is this great evil can now be expressed without any question...
1 thing I've always noticed... It's always the lazy, inept people that have continually made one shitty choice after another throughout their lives that put them into the shitty situation they find themselves...and instead of looking in the mirror and taking accountability for their shitty situation they want to blame the evil rich people of this world. The wealthy people of this world play by the same rules you and I do...they just play it better and work harder at being successful. Kudos to them for EARNING it.
Best quote of the video: "If you don't own assets, inflation makes you poorer. If you own a lot of assets, inflation makes you richer"

The "transfer of wealth" occurred before inflation really took hold. When the country was locked down, small and mid size businesses could not operate(many no longer exist) while mega corporations were left generally unaffected. People were given far fewer options with respect to how/where to spend their money, and major corporations not only had the cash reserves to weather the storm but were also not expected to play by the same rules as other businesses. This resulted in record profits for companies like Amazon and Wal-Mart among others. Billionaires-with the help of daddy government-made out like bandits. So while you're correct about inflation effectively acting as a tax on working people that ultimately benefits the extremely wealthy(not to mention the government with respect to interest rates on various loans and lines of credit), the transfer, or fleecing of the working class, has basically occurred in two acts, with inflation being the second.
EXACTLY 🎯
Yep. Chess move... "Check"
The worker class mostly supported this
I'd add a third act of all of the quantitative easing (which was act 1) since the financial collapse. All of the money printing (and for the pandemic too) went to the ownership class. The stimulus during the pandemic was explicitly to guarantee property owners received their rent (guaranteed profits), large corporations would have their products purchased, etc. Laws could have been written very differently, like not having to pay rent during the crisis, etc.
@@eduardos8895 thanks to a formidable propaganda machine along social ostracism if you dared question anything : psychological harassment of the masses, since the leverage of social medias (along mainstream medias that are now owned by a small clique since the "concentration" of the 1990's), allowed them to do so.
I learned all this too late, because I was busy building real world skills which I value. It's utterly depressing discovering how the entire financial system really works.

@Dino Sauro Some jobs are more valuable than others. It's just that the rewards don't follow that ethos.
@Dino Sauro No dude. There are no humble jobs or humble people deserving more. The ones who are smart or are wise and get education or plan their lives should have more money than the lazy ones who just want a job. Not just "they should" but that it is biology, if it's not like that we go against nature, and more than anything else humans are nature.
What has to change is the system with central banks and dirty politicans bribed by dirty billionaires.
Having a good idea should allow to get a loan at the bank to start a business, the same if you have an income and want to buy a house or a car etc
Two points: 1st is the pandemic didn't cause the economic problem. People's fears and their responses to the pandemic caused the issue. 2nd is that we're not mad at the rich for being rich. We're mad at them and our politicians for the unadulterated corporatism that is now a signature of what used to be capitalism based democracies.
^ Wonderfully articulated.
Instead of people…you should have been more specific…governments caused this problem. They should have let people and businesses sort things out for themselves during the pandemic.
covid caused the economic crisis was a revised narrative put in play almost immediately. Covid not government measures that were shown to not be effective as other solutions. Create the problem, offer the solution. There's a lot I don't know but if I had to guess, I'd say the proverbial captains of this ship saw the iceberg, didn't tell anyone else, told the waiters to keep serving drinks until it was too late and the iceberg was visible to everyone. Not only that but in the timeframe between the captain's seeing the iceberg and the vessel crashing, they managed to engineer a lovely narrative to exclude themselves from any fault or accountability. And almost by a miracle there's an empty boat adjacent to the first boat called the great reset 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The problem with the ‘new money’ created is that it goes directly into repo markets, free money for the banks and the stock markets. Only a pittance was sent to the people and labeled ‘relief’.
If a significant amount of the real money ‘printed’ (on computers) had touched our hands in an impactful way, you’d never see a slow down in buying. I know bc I was in a very fortunate situation with my husband being a veteran getting paid at 💯 disability but we still qualifying for the boast. For us it was wonderful but for most, it barely scratched the surfaces and dried up very quickly. It was an obscene amount of free money that was created and waisted; and now we’re being gaslit to think we had a real hand in spending it all and creating inflation.
I agree it makes a Huge influx of commercial value towards something without giving it a set point of said value, instead it changes with everyday that passes it seems almost as if crypto currency and NFTS Were Possibly Made Only To Fail For The Ones Buying It But Not The Ones At The Top Who Own The Business And Can Sell It At Their Own Value With It Then Decreasing Dramatically As It Then Blows Over To The Next Pyramid Scheme -JACK
I cannot tell you how many times in the political world I have heard that this inflation was caused by consumer spending....
Regardless of who the money funnels through, Blackrock and the boys get paid for every single transaction. ALL capital market monies absolutely funnel through the WEF friendlies, with the rest of the 1% subjugated to them. The predominant huge controlling middle class has been getting squeezed out for decades and we knew it was, and exactly why it was. Now it’s gone but it was the way to kill small biz, like the pandemic has done, and inflation/recession will continue to due. Poverty is the biggest influencer to the subjugation of the masses, along with famine. Too many coincidences, UBI, digital ID, tracking systems, and now we all MUST BUY corporate run products and services… forcing the transfer of wealth away from the 99%. Avoid corporate consumption, open small biz without gov or becoming incorporated…community private lending and trade and coordinated labour force. Pay taxes and work hard for your community. Just sayin’
if that was the case ,then inflation would be worse than already is ,same goods and services plus 6 trillion in debt for the people to spend in the market = inflation on consumer goods would be way higher ,the reason that barely scratched the surfaces was the printing money in the first place ,theres no free lunch ,no free money ,its debt and youre gonna pay it now for years

Yeah, simple solutius are briliant, but they have this small issue that in reality they dont work, because reality is to complex for "catch-all" single-cut rules.
For example "all regulations are wrong" is a pseudo-religious dogma chanted by neoclassics, but some regulations are needed - food quality, traffic rules, legal system,... Or - after events like Katrina - let free hand solve it, no help, that would be anomaly?
These simple rules sound so nice, but then it hits reality. And reality is not a 2D chart.
Printing money is like pissing your pants.

It's like they are standing in a dark room and we try to light up the room, but even if they manage to hit the switch they only realize there is a disconnect in the circuit, so they remain in darkness.
Cantillon Effect. Those closest to the money printer are enriched. Love your analogy. I actually used the exact same analogy at a speaking event regarding Bitcoin a couple weeks ago. I stated that if there is only $100 in existence and you wanted to buy a steak that cost $10, that would mean that the steak takes 10% of the money supply. So if the money printer created $900 and gives it to a friend, how much would that steak cost? The answer, all $100 of your dollars as everything is to a degree priced as a % of the money supply.
When people grasp this, that money is a measure of value, not actual value, then eyes will open.

Inflation is the cost of today's goods at tomorrow's prices.
When your consumption exceeds your savings and investments, you will eventually go broke.
This is what governments have engineered throughout the world.
Great way of putting it: "Inflation is the cost of today's goods at tomorrow's prices."
People forget that it’s governments that have the biggest assets
This is why people being pleased with raising of the minimum wage is so cringe. They actually think that will make them wealthier, when it's just the opposite.
Be very very wary when a large corporation voluntarily agrees to increase base pay for their low ranking employees. It's about control and putting the small competitor out of business. In the end, the consumer loses and the corporation wins.
It's much better when pay raises are forced by workers demanding better pay from their employer. I.e. unions

Thank you. This was intelligent and informative. I can also see the issue with billionaires not being directly in charge of printing more money, BUT then gaining enough cash and power to influence the game even more in their own favour. Let's also not forget that many billionaires gain that cash through pure greed and exploitation as well, Amazon's owner comes to mind.
End the Federal Reserve!
There is no economic system tailored to fit the financially challenged ideas of wealth distribution. Nor should the wealthy be obligated to slow down for them. Prosperity is a right given to all. Wether or not they learn how to use it is their decision. But to call the financially shrewd unfair and penalize them simply because they understand economics and take legal advantage of it is the real crime. It is because of the wealthys works that opportunities for the less financially savy to grow. That's capitalism. It makes better products and services and a larger variety at a lower costs, while creating more jobs. It's only the greedy that want to monopolize and change it, making a less efficient product that doesn't support consumer needs and even and more expensive.and they use the ignorant to get their change needed.
WEF: "You will own nothing and you will be happy".
Politicians love these lies. It makes perfect sense now.
But the corporation don't like it, they need to you to buy. The world economic system is built on consumption. Whether your eat all those things you buy or put them in a garage full of useless trinkets doesn't matter. The message that is constantly preached, the message that is so ubiquitous that it is seldom questioned is want more, buy more. Economic growth depends on greed to fuel the growth and it's a system the requires growth or it fails. Only problem is nothing grows forever.
True but the race car driver loves the game and chips in to keep it the way it is or even worst bribe the owners to rig it more in his favor. It's a vicious cycle. As long as greed and ego exist, humanity will keep getting more corrupt until the day it decides to put an end to itself and that may happen very soon, the great reset might be that tipping point.
Stunning video, from messaging to editing, everything is insanely well done. As for the message, I could not agree more. Whenever "the rich" are finger pointed at as the culprits it puts entire populations in victim mentality, which is the worst thing to be doing. This creates abominations like communism and nazism. The sooner we collectively understand that it is the system that is rigged, without the finger pointing, the sooner we can heal as a world. Of course it's easy to point blame on others, it seems like it would also come with an easy solution, but it's so far from the truth. I adore you guys for being such a voice of reason, sanity and ultimately healing. I think you'll be studied in textbooks decades from now. Love you so much!
Thank you so much for saying that!
The rich created the system and change the rules on the fly, to benefit them, remember the Wall Street Bets event.
@@douchebag0073 what I would say here is not "the rich" because that is a blanket statement that includes all rich people. Sorelle would be considered rich as well, but she didn't have any say in that. Words are tremendously important, much more than we may even consider. So with my world view I would make a point to rephrrase your statement into: "some of the rich people who wanted more power" or "some people afflicted with money sought more power to consolidate their gains, as their world view implies that otherwise they would suffer great consequences". "Some people with a lot of money wanted even more because they became addicted to it". As you can see, this is much more nuanced and leads to less feeling of separation. Those "rich people" are not some misterious aliens that came to this planet in search of money. They are a product of our society. A society that is built on unhealthily systems. Who is to say that you or I would have made a different choice were we to live in their shoes, with the same upbringing and conditioning? This was my point in the previous comment. As long as we point fingers, looking for the scape goat, this problem will perpetuate till eternity, because the core of it is untouched. We go round and round in circles. And these circles produce unspeakable horrors, justified by the perpetrators as "seeking justice" because it was "the rich" that rigged the game. Not that we all blindly agree to give our power and free will to a broken system. Not that we chose every single day to disregard how powerful we can actually be (which also comes with some pretty hardcore shadow work) and instead, we again and again choose to be soothed by the idea that we are just the victims and we have absolutely no responsibility in this. This is why I think @SORELLEAMORE will be mentioned in textbooks in future decades. Because she sees the actual mechanism and she is bringing education and awareness, to empower people to take responsibility for this society that we are all co-createing. She is part of a mass movement of radical responsibility and I fucking love that I was born to live in these epic times and witness history in the making. Lots of love to you fellow human! Xx
I noticed you made an unnecessarily long reply to my comment, I guess to dissuade a response from me. I suggest you also read Nicholas Penn's comment as well. I find it comical that you chose to critic my grammar to reply to my comment, and BTW you misspelled the word mysterious. Money is a tool and has no real value, it was soley created to control the masses. Perhaps you may be correct, and I would have made similar choices had I had a similar upbringing as those of the well to do, but that would still not validate my greed or those of the rich. Furthermore the working class are the victims, in the 70's the average CEO pay was equivalent to 20× the average employee, today the average CEO pay is more than 320× the average employee. Also legitimate inflation, in most cases, is temporary issue not a perpetual one as the ruling class would have the working class to believe.
@@douchebag0073 dear one, I did not mean to critique your language and your response is very welcome. I think what I am saying is getting lost in translation 😄 by the way, English is not my first language and considering I think I did pretty well there🥰. I do not mean to justify any wrong doing from those you classify as "the rich". My parents are working class and so was everyone around me. I grew up in Romania, a former comunist country who is now getting pillaged by "the rich". At the same time, my ancestors were war refugees and some were political prisoners for having been perceived at one point by the communist agenda as "the rich". Yes, I agree those people are continuing to rig the game in their own interest, but what I merely wanted to express is that I think it is time we start to look a bit deeper at the causes. Why is it that in our current system, 90% of those who get in power end up rigging the game more? They are the product of our society, are they not? They come from our school systems, from our belief system, from our own traumas. I guess my take on it is a more philosophical and yours is more looking at the way things are from the pragmatic understanding. I think there is room for both. The other thing I would like to add here is: this is just a written comment. The voice in my head reading this is loving and kind and I have no control over what the tone of voice you will perceive at the time you read this, as it is all very much up to your beliefs and mood at the time. I wish you a beautiful day and thank you for your comments as they gave me the opportunity to express something that I had been contemplating for a long time. All the best!
Let's be real. It's from panic and fear "to help everyone in the crisis." (Each crisis is created to make a good economy.)
Really enjoyed this, but what is the solution? Fine art investing?
Well, that explained the real estate bubble. I was wondering about that.
I always figured that the 1% were pointing at the super-rich to avoid people noticing that they're the ones making the rules in the first place. What I'm never sure about is whether the 1% understand that inflation harms those who can't keep up or whether they actually really think that it somehow works out because of rising tides or something. They other thing I hate is how they go on about the beleaguered middle class as if low-income people can somehow manage but the middle class (I assume they're talking about middle-income earners, not the professional class) are helpless and don't know how to budget.
The real estate bubble was driven by banks writing mortgages. When commercial banks make loans they create money. In normal times this is the REAL source of inflation. Blaming the Fed or the government is a popular distraction. Strictly speaking, most governments debar themselves from money creation; what they actually do is borrow money stagnating in the financial sector by selling bonds and spend it into to real economy. Much of this results in real production of goods. When banks create mortgages they create credit. Pushing this credit into a limited stock of housing standing on a limited amount of available land inflates those assets

An explanation for why assets increase at such a greater rate than inflation would be enlightening. Where does the excess in cash come from that drives the price of the inflation fighting assets comes from? Something must be sold to transfer the value to the new assets classes. Keep up the excellent presentations! THX
That may be only a short trem effect not not one that is true over the long run.

Excellent and concise analysis. I would enjoy hearing your views on Capitalisms vs Socialism especially since so many kids in college and university are being told by their professors that capitalisms is the cause of many or the evils in the modern world.
I enjoyed this video and found it super informative so thank you! One part that I would like more context / information on from your economic perspective is how impactful corporate or billionaire lobbying is and how that potentially plays into the equation of who’s at fault (if it does at all in your view). I’m not looking for a catch-all scapegoat for everything or anything like that - undoubtedly modern politicians deserve quite a bit of blame for often self-serving or otherwise spineless / out-of-touch responses to social needs… but their actions also often appear to be in response to lobbying efforts or donor funding which is where, at least for myself, a primary frustration with the rich lies: they’re not just the sports car driver that playing within the rules of the game set forth by politicians… but rather it seems like they are actively pressuring the politicians to change the game itself to ensure continued individual prosperity, you know? Anyway, sincerely appreciate the informative content as always! Would love to hear your opinion / expertise / thoughts on the topic and how it pertains to this video down the road someday!

Sometimes I hate to say “I told ya so” but I did tell the people I know. I told everyone the pumping of money into the economy under the guise of a “stimulus package” would comeback to bite us. But what do we do? Continually vote in the same lame politicians that want to destroy our economy, making us poorer and the wealthy richer. The very people they blame, besides the ultra wealthy are themselves, because somehow being a politician these days equals wealth. And then what does the world do? Look up to them as if they are heroes. It’s an Enigma…..
There's no way many politicians should be worth more than a handful of millions of dollars depending on how long their career has been but when you see they are worth 50 - 100's of millions then you know they are all up in the insider trading, tax fund theft and generally writing legislation for their own benefits. I'd argue there's very few good people's among the world's politicians.
Stimulus works, but only if it is spent on the correct things. Which didn't exactly happen in this case...
@@chrishermans Correct! They gave too much money but then shut down the country so no one could work, unless your in healthcare or another “essential.” It was intentional. Globalization is coming.
"stimulus" made from money created out of thin air is as real as trying to empty a swimming pool by filling buckets from one side of the pool and dumping it in the other.
You can't stimulate the economy by devaluing the currency via bescumbering dollars into the ether.
The app for investing in Art was not relevant for non-US citizens. Also it’s very risky and you most likely won’t withdraw you money. Plus everything is in USD which can crush in value any time
Inflation didn’t steal money. The people who decided it was a good idea to print and print money and stop production created inflation intentionally. They knew what would happen it wasn’t no accident. Why is it every government solution to every problem benefits either government funding or big business? Just by chance? I don’t think so. I don’t know who pulls the strings but it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that the world is being direct by big business, including banks & government. Which are so intertwined as to be almost the same entity. And don’t forget the justification for handing the power of money over to private business was to give a stable dollar yet there hasn’t been a year yet in my country that the dollar didn’t lose at least 2.5% in value.
Wow! nice job of breaking down a complex issue into basic, easily consumable economics. Love the part about assets -- this should def be an area people invest to protect themselves from times like these
Thanks for saying that! We're trying to explain these concepts as easily as we can.
Thank you Sorelle for your well put together videos! It truly brings a lot of value to me. 🙏🏼
Sorelle, you explain inflation so well. To hear we are having high inflation is one thing, but to understand it the way you have has opens my eyes to a clear understanding. I love you videos, insight and you vision. Thank you.
How does printing more money make the economy more stable? People still have to work. It's not like the extra printed money is being given away for free.
Simply amazing ! It explains a LOT of stuff. Thank you so much for sharing that knowledge....
Good basic explanation of inflation for nonprofessionals (laymen). However, the economy is a complex dynamic system. So, you really should at least also explain, how cost-push inflation differs from demand-pull inflation (and this asset-price inflation). Then how taxation (and transfers) might mitigate some of the (pareto)effects (you imply). This historical increase of central bank liquidity ("Quantitative Easing", transmission mechanisms, etc.) after the 2008 financial crisis, could (and should) have been handled very differently. So, you're quite right. This has been the greatest "transfer of wealth" (ripoff) in history. I said that over a decade ago. Now, in this hight dept situation, increasing rates might well become (finalise) a financial massacre, on a larger scale.
The question is what the right step to take and prepare before it comes?
@@alisapecherskaya3727 the right steps is to educate yourself, by reading real experts
@@bzznz can you give some examples of real experts?
how about you making the video?
I’ve learned so much about economics from you. Just finished a Econ class in college and didn’t have to really study the entire semester. Got a ‘B’ btw. You make finance so digestible, so I have to give to props. Also, I would love to meet you one day. I don’t know if you fancy fan meetups, but I would definitely attend.

Thank you for making these videos in the most unbiased way, leaving the viewer with suggestions instead of absolute claims (even though I would agree with those claims), but this way, I can show your videos to "normies" and they won't reject them right away
As someone without a lot of money, I have felt this pretty hard. Groceries are so much more than they were a year ago. But most people know this. And yet the guys that got us in this situation are still in power.
Truth!
Thank you for spelling it out!
Generally speaking, democracy is just plutocracy with extra steps. The plutocratic elites own the politicians, which makes them directly responsible for their (monetary and fiscal) policies. So yes, we can and should blame the billionaires.
We should blame them all, elected sell-outs included.
Thanks Sorelle. Perfect work. You address cause and effect very well. Please don’t stop exposing the elitists. This is a perfect storm for Klaus to execute das digital ID and UBI, and the rest of his nightmare. You are touching on pieces of the the big picture. Lots of 1984 stuff being introduced (ie. Toronto’s Google Sidewalk Labs IOT and carbon footprint tracing… smoke and mirrors… you know.)
Stay well and thanks kindly.
To be fair, a timeshare Picasso is pretty based. Pitchforks are very affordable, and listening to rich, out of touch capitalists about how to fix the fallout from rampant global capitalism is like asking the arsonist to grab a firehose.
Good gracious! Did I just watch a long commercial trying to convince me to invest in crappy timeshare "ott"?
Why is Wealth Inequality a problem? This question is never addressed, it's just asserted that it is a problem with no explanation or justification.
There will always be inequality, everything is unequal right from the moment you are conceived. Pursuit of equality has always led to awful results. But the idea that "Wealth Inequality" is this great evil can now be expressed without any question...
1 thing I've always noticed...
It's always the lazy, inept people that have continually made one shitty choice after another throughout their lives that put them into the shitty situation they find themselves...and instead of looking in the mirror and taking accountability for their shitty situation they want to blame the evil rich people of this world. The wealthy people of this world play by the same rules you and I do...they just play it better and work harder at being successful. Kudos to them for EARNING it.
All of this makes me feel like I'm in way over my head. I wish I had learned this 20 years ago.
How do we know this lady isn't also deceiving us?!?!?
Great topic and production is on point. Thanks for all the hard work.. All the best from Canada. 🍁✌️❤️
My grandpa never went to school. He can’t even write his own name. Thing is, you can not fool him a single cent.
