on the lockheed stuff:
1. who else would buy fucking missiles and fighter jets than a government, so of course 90% of their profit comes from that.
2. who else would build those weapons for a cheaper price? like if thats the market price then thats the market price...
I’m only 10 mins in but the only mention I heard of 90% was a food company. What do you mean missiles and fighter jets?
@@kennythawsh 6:27 ''90% of revenue comes from the us government''
@@nonserviam4813 i timestamped the exact moment
Also it would make sense for people in congress to be invested in companies related to what they do since that’s what they know best
there are other countries
I think destiny here might be too focused on the numbers game but the blatant clash of interest from politicians in power positions is astonishing and needs questioning even if its 1 dollar.
“The blatant clash of interest from politicians in power positions.” One of the dumbest, least readable phrases I’ve ever seen.
Even if it’s one dollar? How did you graduate from grammar school?
Honeywell!?! Lol you mean the fortune 100 company that does an insane amount of stuff for both residential and commercial applications? Thermostats, alarm systems, controllers, encoders… would imagine most people with an etf own some Honeywell, you need a little more evidence to say that’s suspicious guy. This guy would call DuPont “a paint company”. Like yea man, but there’s a little more to it
honeywell is like J & J big.
Most of the large tech companies do military contracting.
Good day to all my fellow Dalibanis ❤️

wasn't the betterhelp thing that they say they are signing you up with real therapists but their terms of service basically says they don't vet any therapist and if they aren't a real licensed therapist it's not their fault for connecting you to them
Hmm, I’m gonna need Drebin to explain *THE WAR ECONOMY* for me again.
I'm sorry but Destiny's "it's just 5k/50k etc." take about congress people owning stocks in those companies is just a none argument.
It's an ethical problem no matter if it's 1 or 1 million dollars.
Sure the more the worse, but it's not suddenly fine just because it's only 5k.
Inb4 it's not life changing
Did he say it wasn’t an ethical problem? Pretty sure he just said it wasn’t that influential to someone who’s already got more money than most people could spend.
Destiny basically doesn't believe that conflict of interest is a real thing.
Is this ownership of direct stock? Or do they hold $500,000 of index funds and those funds hold $15,000 of their money in defense contractor stocks?
@@astrorob6985 I'm not sure, when his reaction is "wait a sec, it's only 5k ahahAHAHA and even at 50k this is nothing", then I'm not too sure if he actually thinks it matters, ethically or practically.
Conflict of interest isn’t just about the amount it’s about appearances too. We should try to avoid even the appearance of a conflict with this sort of stuff. I also think congress gets swayed with more than just the stocks there’s campaign donations and the PAC system that’s not really accountable at all. Finally there’s jobs waiting for these people in the private sector. Are they being swayed with promises of jobs for family, friends, and themselves? Even if it’s just a promise for when they leave office?
It’s fine to question whether we are over blowing the case for how “bought out” congress is, but the fact remains even 15 grand in stocks doubling or tripling is a nice pay day for someone with less than 2 mil in net worth (presumably a bunch of that isn’t liquid like homes in DC and in their state) and even if you think it’s not it doesn’t mean the Senator or house member doesn’t feel that way. We simply have no way of knowing if there’s a conflict or not when even the tiniest appearance of one exists. I think beyond reproach is not an unreasonable expectation for the top law makers in the country.
If you thought your surgeon might profit from harvesting organs would you think “well they make so much money as a surgeon why would they risk it” or would you find a new surgeon just in case? Sometimes we can and should demand more.
Yes sir agreed Congress should not be allowed to hold stocks. If your serving your country you should be self sacrificing and accept your wage as is. None of them should be millionaires etc unless this occurred before office. It’s sickening. Love the comment
What makes you important or meaningful enough to society in the world that large for you to “demand” anything?
Let me tell you something as someone who works in contracting for the Government. I will need some citations needed and I got zero for cases where Lockheed didn't compete for their contracts. For those of you who don't know jackshit about how these things go, I will tell you that the ones that went to jail or paid fines are the ones that broke the law. The major defense contractors do not do this as they have no need to. When Lockheed wins a bidding for a new weapon system, like say the F-35, the competition occurs during the first bid, because they are the only ones who own the rights to F-35s. After they beat out other contractors for designs, they will be the only ones who can supply new F-35s if say a war breaks out or the Government expands it. So it is fucking dumb to say that they didn't compete it during the war because things they already had competed and had monopolies on producing were suddenly sold more during the war. There is no way Lockheed could get away without doing competition for the initial award because other contractors, like Boeing, would fucking sue the Government for not giving them a fair chance, and they would win. What you are seeing is some internet "expert" trying to connect dots to make a case but really only has like 50% of the material he needed, so he conflated some other shit that looks bad if you don't understand anything about how contracting works and just get attached to the "Government spent big bucks on X, where is the competition." Don't believe me, just look at how he conflated 1k investments to making themselves rich by investing in Government contractors. He is very consistent throughout this video. He finds a few bad apples, then tries to find as many similar apples that aren't as rotten or look to be as rotten, then says look at how big this pile of rotten apples is. He did it with the minor investors in Congress 1k vs 150k and he did it with major defense contractors who have monopolies on items being the same as selling cheap ammo from China and underbidding everyone, which is winning the initial contracts and then being the sole provider getting follow on orders vs. breaking the law to win the lowest bid.
State department does way more than most people think.

When is 3 coming out
@@Jorgec224 I think they will release it when
@@Jorgec224 isn't Nathan technically the 3rd?
lmao @1:36 there's some damn good trigger discipline
23:50 I mean regardless, they rly shouldn't be able to invest in those companies in the first place.
Of all the "winners" of the war in Afghanistan, I think years from now, China will have been one of the ultimate winners too. They wasted no time in swooping in to "support" Aghanistan after the mess. That was a golden opportunity, and since they'd had their own eye on all the natural resources, just like all the others (not the least of which is lithium), they get to pretend to be their new best friend now - and will get plenty privileges out of that, for sure.
That’s “breakfast” guy. I hate that he’s been recommended to me
Destiny can be quite petty and snide with his comments.
This video is describing the American empire
People in chat dunking on Better Help. My irl therapist worked with them, so that is one.
Not sure what Destiny means with his take on NATO in Libya, my understanding is that NATO is a defensive pact, what NATO country was Libya attacking?
big ol nothing burger, didn't event mention big pharma and poppy fields
Iran, China and Russia won the Afghanistan war, there’s your analysis, gz.
Destiny there is also the cost of SCALING weapons. The first weapon will be EXTREMELY COSTLY. So will outfitting a nation not in war. 💀 So thus a jet cost 30 million...but if you go to war, you have the blueprints and design to take that to scale...those million dollar jets become the cost of a car. When you do millions of them. 💀 Same with all weapons. A peacetime force is ALWAYS more costly. But being prepared is worth more than all the money in the world. As the old wise saying .."it is better to have and not need, then need...and not have."
And war dogs was the government opening up bidding to “small business” since everyone raged about no-bid or contracts going to big corporations.
These stories are far more complex and more fucked up.
King of minimizing
I’m absolutely convinced Johnny here is a state department hack
That doesn’t necessarily mean he’s wrong on everything but his Russia video came out pretty quick, pretty bold assumptions too
Which state department?
His original video on Ukriane sounded to me, like he was just reciting Russian propaganda.
@@loganvanderwier8866 “Russian propaganda”
At this point everything is Russian propaganda. The sky is blue? Russian propaganda bro
What I’m primarily hinting at is the fact that this his channel is obviously high production and that video came out quick
He’s also obviously very much pushing a certain agenda on his channel. A glance at his videos would have you asking my same question too
@@1CE. Like I mean he legitimatizes Putin's arguments about Ukraine not being a real independent nation
"Government contractors get paid money by the government to sell the government things it needs."
Soy! Soy! How could they do something like this!?!?
Completely missed the point
You guys think destiny will retire with his twitch account getting nuked?
He might, he says he'll still stream for the next year for 4 hours then he'll reach his goal amount to retire.
His Twitch was banned? When was this? Why?
Nah, he’d just be at home ranting about the same shit and playing games by himself, why wouldn’t he monetize it
I think he should. The dude has put his time in I don’t know what else he needs to say. I’m sure after a year of his own pursuits he will come crawling back.
Nah he'll just switch to streaming on UA-cam full time
Destiny can go full racist now that he's banned from Twitch
Small government global empire
5 mil increase: live changing
389 mi decrease: slap on the wrist
sounds about right...
5 mil increase to someone making 2 mil.
380 mil increase to someone worth multiple billions
What a fucking disingenuous comment. The guy illegally made billions and only lost 400 million. It was absolutely a slap on the wrist. And it was a 27 mill increase from 3 mil which is 10x. I wouldn't call that life changing but it's a far cry from a 5 mill increase
"what did we get?" The most advanced weapons and logistics systems in the world, it really is insane comparing US military tech at the start of the war to the end of it, everything from self healing gas tanks to drones that can stay in the air for days while monitoring areas with AI to scan for enemy movement and buried IEDs.
Lulz 5x your income per year isn't life changing. What's up with this dude?
*it's life-changing for a pleb not an already rich person
The wars floated the US economy for 20 years that why the stock market go up every thing else go down why do people listen to destiny
thinking we spent alot of money back on that war, knowing 50% of all current cash has been printed after that war LOL.
this sentance doesnt really mean anyhing lol
@@youtubefiend1183 it does if you have intellect, calling out proportionality, guess you missed that
@@lafondawilliams lol it does not. It literally means nothing. Your statment says nothing of value. But jerk your self off about how smart you are :)
just to clarify for you. For any amnout of money, you need context and time si very important context. And relation of the nominal value of money to price of goods is another really important context. Without those 2 things it means nothing. So no mather how much money was printed you can deflate the the todays $ value for the value in the Afghan war and you can see what the actual price was. It is not 100% precise. But it gives you an idea. So i dont know what you trying to prove here. but you have 12 year old's understanding of money and inflation.
Dallahu snackbar!
21:03 what kind of toxic, bullshit take is this? "is it really worth talking about corruption/ insider trading if its only a few thousand dollars?"
What the fuck?
In the example its literally a rounding error hence its a waste of time. There will always be bad thing x, if the bad thing x is so marginal you cannot see it with a jeweler's eye and the damage is so miniscule that its essentially non existant, who cares?
@Mekehl What do you mean by corrupt? How has it "devoured" our government (considering "capitalist" western nations are way less corrupt than dictators of the east)? When was the US not "devoured" by capitalism?
"If I had to guess" "I could be wrong" so beta.
Very underwhelming tbh.
This "glorified security guard" schtick is so tired. They don't hire joe schmoe off the street for military operations, these guys always ex military, and more often than not, ex special forces.
