It s actually sad that crypto was ruined by greedy speculators and
sleazy crypto wallet companies lending out and spending other people s
money.
Government regulation only focused on taxing the consumers, not on
keeping the wallet companies honest.
Celebrities and government insiders on the take.
Strangely I suspect regular people will not see the irony in a year when
the fed replaces physical cash for government crypto currency.

Europe needs grain in the Ukraine!
Europe needs grain in the Ukraine!
Europe needs grain in the Ukraine!
Europe needs grain in the Ukraine!
Europe needs grain in the Ukraine!
Do my shit
Cargill, an American investment group (privately owned by an Oligarch
family) that owns Ukraine s biggest grain terminal on the Black Sea.
Wears its' 'woke' on it's sleeve despite a deep record of corruption,
bribery, violence, and intimidation: https://www.cargill.com/ Cargill
has a controlling stake in a Ukraine concern called Neptune, which owns
the country s largest grain terminal outside Odessa, and almost
everything surrounding it.
Biden tweet from May:
My administration is invoking the Defense Production Act for the third
time in less than a week to help Cargill deliver the materials needed to
maximize the production of infant formula. We're using the full power of
the federal government to ramp up production and increase supply.
Cargill was the company that partnered with Bill Gates to make lab grown
meat that was promoted all over the liberal industrial complex. Cargill,
PepsiCo, and Nestle still do business with Russia.
Headline: Cargill allowed to continue in Ukraine. Biden official
'Yes, we did talk about food shortages and it s going to be real,' said
US President A Biden offical said, 'They re basically too big to fail at
this point. And yes, I know how that sounds.'
The point of all this: Ukraine's partitioning. Cargill, Putin and Poland
will inherit the earth. Americans pay the bill. Europe freezes and
starves.

This is the point in time where the dad tells the children about a
parallel history lesson about the CIA installing a puppet military
government in Honduras to benefit the slave labor needed for the United
Fruit & Cuyamel Fruit Companies in the early 20th century.
No one will point out what the Clintons were doing in Haiti or why Obama
was enabling Muslim Brotherhood in North Africa.
I love America but I'm just going to say that our leaders are up to evil
exploitation globally and I'm afraid Americans will pay the price soon.
It's never evil corporations or investment groups that pay the price. I
mean - think about recent examples where five prime ministers were
killed after refusing to distribute covid-19 vaccines. No one on earth
wants to talk about that either. And when I bring it up, it's met with
long faces and distant eyes. Like the great Leonard Cohen once said,
'Everybody Knows'.

FTX now claiming they were hacked. SMH
Positioning themselves to say the money was stolen by cyber thieves, not

#160 Seriously. How many marriages ruined? I have seen horror stories
perusing reddit. Millenials "managing" their parents money.
"I don't know how to tell them they lost everything."
Unfortunately this will lead to suicides, physical abuse, substance
abuse, etc. The housing collapse is already started even if the normies
are playing hear-no-evil, see-no-evil. Did I mention a guy had a house
for sale in my neighborhood for 500k (a lot for Metro Detroit) for about
a month, then the sign came down. We assumed someone bought it. Later I
checked zillow and it says the house is off the market. Zillow estimate
$179k. OOOF If it was a flipper, the flipper got burned. We saw this in
2007-8. Beyond that, all those layoffs are going to result in a housing
market with desperate sellers and swelling inventory.

I'm already getting black friday mailers. No special products. All
prices are the same, as in no deals whatsoever. Q4 is going to be VERY
BAD for retail. I'm assuming retailers are going into it with low
expectations knowing that sales are down, prices are high, interest
rates are high, balances are maxed. Nothing enticing for the consumer.
What I find appalling is when the retailer puts sinage that shows the
old price with a line through it (a fake, high price), then the regular
prices below it. What a deal! We'll see though. People are always
surprising me these days.

#163 "Your house is your piggy bank!"
"Pull cash out of your house now!"
As if people are actually pulling out cash. They owe all that money
back, now at 3x interest rates. And GOD HELP those with arm loans. You
would think people would learn. In the meantime, I am watching the
stock market skyrocket lately for no apparent reason. Elections stolen.
Earnings down. Inflated prices. We are living in an abstract world -
like a perverse cartoon. My plan remains: stay the course, focus on self
and family, keep on rocking, keep on saying NO to all the forced
dystopia.
At one point, people will actually start feeling real pain and they will
wake the F up from their stupor. The people who stole their way into
power who are rubbing all our faces into their feces better run.
Speaking of those people - the con artists of the 21st century who buy
power with other people's money then escape justice because they were
"Democrat megadonors"... how much more of this are people going to put

Glyphosate in our processed food. Hey Siri, why are so many young people

"Greed-to-risk ratio" - I like that. Remember Greenspan with "irrational
exuberance"? He's shockingly alive - seemed like he was 102 20 years
ago. Imagine what is running through his head now as we have a labor
participation rate of 61.6 percent in 2022 (actual statistic, see link
below). Almost 40% real unemployment. People who think recession is
coming are in for a huge surprise. It's here and getting worse and the
dummy young people won't even work. HOW DO THEY EXIST? If there's some
magic formula outside of government handouts they should share it. Did
someone find the Arc of the Covenant and are they passing out Manna from

PS My goofball uncle and aunt. I'm 100% sure they thought I was nuts
when I told them about the housing market, the food shortages, the
crypto, etc. They are in their 70's but have the ear of their arrogant
PHD, marxist, millenial loser kid (in his 40s). Anything outside of CNN
is a wild right-wing conspiracy theory. Well, I saw them last weekend
and they said to me, "everything you told me is true- send me youtube
links we want to find out more." I was LOL'ing out loud in my mind. I
told them about WEF and how "Build Back Better" was a globalist slogan
and they both yelled, "NO!" at the same time. The normies are getting
red-pilled. I guess $6 for eggs and milk will do that.

Consensus mechanisms:
ensure next block is only one version in blockchain
AND
keep adversaries from derailing system
(90% of currencies use Proof of Work protocol e.g. bitcoin, ethereum..)
A block will only be valid if it hashes to a value smaller than the hash of
the most recent block. By design, mining difficulty increases with time,
securing the blockchain (security through obscurity OR via the richest person
who can afford the computing power)
Currencies like Bitcoin use a protocol that has a mechanism which adjusts
difficulty to be commensurate with the computing power participating in the
mining process. The nodes available are the computing power determining the
hash rate. (There really is no guarantee that the node with the highest
computing power will find the nonce first - due to randomness)
A higher hash rate only means that the node can make attempts faster to find
the nonce for the next block.
Thus enter Byzantine Failures (pun intended)

Saw that yesterday. Very alarming.
There will be no scarcity with a Fed crypto when it comes to "minting"
or mining. Likely: The scarcity exists with the end user relative to
what their social credit score is.
The CBDC will be to cash what cash was to gold circa 1971.

#169 I'll have to add The Peripheral to my list. I tried Tulsa King the

episode and see what happens. May get good?
But Chlo Moretz, the star of Peripheral was in Badass 2 and was great
in it. She's a good actress and very good looking too; kind of looks
like a young Kim Catrell to me. Good for her to score a lead part.
$1 Cadbury bars. Oh man. Did you see how big a snickers bar is now? It's

"cursed the darkness and woke in a carb coma surrounded by wrappers."
I can relate if swap the 3 musketeers with pizza.
Those true words are never admitted by any large woman. The words
actually spoken are these, "You don't understand what it's like to be a
woman. I try and try. I do everything but nothing works. I don't have
testosterone or a male metabolism. It's not FAIR!"
Behind ever scenario are hidden bags of shame candy and doritos.
I digress.
I also really loved 24 before it jumped the shark. Really great plots
and great acting, even when all along I suspected that the show was
sponsored by the CIA as propaganda. "Torturing brown people is necessary
for national security."
Gasoline. Not sure if you saw this but the head of Saudi Aramco recently
said this:' Today there is spare capacity that is extremely low. If
China opens up, [the] economy starts improving or the aviation industry
starts asking for more jet fuel, you will erode this spare capacity.
When you erode that spare capacity the world should be worried. There
will be no space for any hiccup any interruption, any unforeseen
events anywhere around the world.'
And finally, a talking head from Fox nails the FTX scenario. I'm
wondering if FTX will get buried in the news cycle despite the fact that
it's several magnitudes worse than Madoff because Democrats and Covid
authoritarians benefited from SBF passing around other people's money.
$32 billion is an insane amount of money and the damage is going to be
epic. I know 'epic' is a word tossed around a lot these days but it
really applies here.

It's not a stretch to see the left arguing for forced sterilization and
euthanasia for those deemed unfit for society (political opposition?).
In Canada, there's no consent needed from parents for children to be
killed by the government medicine. In the US, kids are gender confused
by teachers for gender reassignment. Imagine how children could be
easily coaxed into government-provided death.
The left calls political opposition Nazis. Ironic, isn't it?

Eugenics in America
In the late 19th century, Galton whose cousin was Charles Darwin hoped
to better humankind through the propagation of the British elite. His
plan never really took hold in his own country, but in America it was
more widely embraced.
Eugenics made its first official appearance in American history through
marriage laws. In 1896, Connecticut made it illegal for people with
epilepsy or who were feeble-minded to marry. In 1903, the American
Breeder s Association was created to study eugenics.
John Harvey Kellogg, of Kellogg cereal fame, organized the Race
Betterment Foundation in 1911 and established a pedigree registry. The
foundation hosted national conferences on eugenics in 1914, 1915 and
1928.
As the concept of eugenics took hold, prominent citizens, scientists and
socialists championed the cause and established the Eugenics Record
Office. The office tracked families and their genetic traits, claiming
most people considered unfit were immigrants, minorities or poor.
The Eugenics Record Office also maintained there was clear evidence that
supposed negative family traits were caused by bad genes, not racism,
economics or the social views of the time.
Forced Sterilizations
Eugenics in America took a dark turn in the early 20th century, led by
California. From 1909 to 1979, around 20,000 sterilizations occurred in
California state mental institutions under the guise of protecting
society from the offspring of people with mental illness.
Many sterilizations were forced and performed on minorities. Thirty-
three states would eventually allow involuntary sterilization in
whomever lawmakers deemed unworthy to procreate.
In 1927, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that forced sterilization of the
handicapped does not violate the U.S. Constitution. In the words of
Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendall Holmes, three generations of
imbeciles are enough. In 1942, the ruling was overturned, but not
before thousands of people underwent the procedure.
In the 1930s, the governor of Puerto Rico, Menendez Ramos, implemented
sterilization programs for Puerto Rican women. Ramos claimed the action
was needed to battle rampant poverty and economic strife; however, it
may have also been a way to prevent the so-called superior Aryan gene
pool from becoming tainted with Latino blood.
According to a 1976 Government Accountability Office investigation,
between 25 and 50 percent of Native Americans were sterilized between
1970 and 1976. It s thought some sterilizations happened without consent
during other surgical procedures such as an appendectomy.
In some cases, health care for living children was denied unless their
mothers agreed to sterilization.

Who writes history? Who can say which is true or false?
True history elevates the crimes (against humanity) of the Germans while
downplaying the crimes of the United States, China, Japan, Russia. Note
that the origins of propaganda and eugenics were not Germany, yet where
are the associations made? All evil players should be condemned
regardless of where the writers of history live.
The Armenian genocide and Japanese atrocities are still denied in the
mainstream today.
As the Ukraine tortures and murders it's own people accused of being
sympathizers, the American and European media turns a blind eye and
labels mention of it 'disinformation'.

When groups like the ADL and the SPLC are allowed to label people and
have them essentially destroyed to suit a cancel culture, we do not live
in a free society. Musk WILL live on his knee and will bend to their
