yeah there is your ancestor motion bonaparte maxwell my old relative used to be the biggest landowner in this area and of course became famous as the place for billy the kid was shot by pat garrett this is amazing that we're here probably touching my mom he was the largest ever private land holder in u.s. history. here it is really the kids tombstone. he was such an anti-hero they actually locked him up in prison even in death. you know they escaped many times from prison and he escaped and become immortal american myth. i see that he was only twenty one they called him the boy bandit king. the boy band of the king well this is genius isn't it lives on in the all the people that we love and adore today the american characters like donald trump is kind of

a boy branded king of the twenty first century. i guess the sympathy for him is that he was essentially orphaned thirteen and we know how. the wild west we know what the wild west was like is a very dangerous place so he had to hook up with some bad guys you know some some gunslingers and he himself was alleged to have killed eight people including a sheriff so that's what he was executed for by pat garrett right here on your ancestors property and you also see it like the actual two stone is incased in some metal a metal frame because the first time it was stolen it was taken to graham berry texas where is found twenty six years later and that town was quite interesting because it's a town where real bad guys lived real outlaws who had faked their deaths but they were real living there think no charlatans kings pop or.

geniuses billy the kid kind of encompasses all those qualities you know he's a great american hero and we see today the american entrepreneurs and politicians steve jobs doll and trump they all come from billy the kid the other theme that holds to billy the kid is that of course there are many many many conspiracy theories that he in fact was not killed and that he went on to live and there are even up to just a few years ago they want to exuma him and take some genetic testing and see if it's actually him and so you know just like elvis yeah. they never die just they never die they just become immortal even to the modern times where all the nine eleven victims never really died it was all staged fake all those plane crashes the same with all the sandy hook like we always have this thing of like these tragic big huge epic events never actually happen people don't like to accept. and so they mythologize their heroes and they never die

and with billy the kid this is a quintessentially american hero who forged a path in the west and one to war with the authorities and became a mortal and became a myth and became a proto typical boy outlaw king that is the character that is repeated every generation rock n roll in america reinvented elvis reinvented donald trump reinvented the boy genius to outlaw king i'm tearing up here you know i really feel an affinity i guess because of my old ancestors land and such a stark old moment happened here. you know it's moving yes so we've you know seen walter white we saw all the gangster lore of las vegas we saw we talked to your friend chaz there the author of. inspired by many of the outlaws in american

history to commit a crime here we have billy the kid he is still an anti-hero and like that ghost guy you know we continue to make money off him there are activists trying to get him pardoned to this day by the governor but obviously if they pardon him he's no longer a bad guy and new mexico can no longer make money off to this day people are always pushing the law and some get caught some go to jail but some become heroes well i'm going to go look at the like four or five other at tombstones and this cemetery here you know did i'm going to spend some time in philly ok have fun but i see some folks i left them shotgun shells and cigarettes it seems like a fitting tribute this reminds me of a parallel in paris where i spent some time at the tombstone of jim morrison another american character outlaw the lizard king who died

romantically tragically in paris and buried along with some of the greatest authors of all time jim morrison claim to be a great poet many people argued that point and yet he's buried with some of the buried of some of the greatest poets ever in european history and. i have to boy if he has spare carried him to. poetic greatness in the end. acts you want to come check this out. this is your ancestors tombstone you got to read this wow. bonaparte maxwell a native. casket illinois a fur trader and trapper who by industry good fortune and trading became sole owner in eight hundred sixty four of the largest single tract of land owned by any one individual in the united states maxwell founded the first national bank of santa fe

new mexico and invested two hundred fifty thousand dollars to build the texas pacific railroad dynamic charitable lavish one of the great builders of the american west sentence one of the great builders of the american west. i love it and i have to pay tribute to my ancestors. and i'm thinking of stacy i should be buried in this graveyard someday oh my other a relative saying to be here a lot of maxwells a few macs and believe the kid timothy maxwell kaiser i could get up by going to talk to the new mexico thirty's about this so he helped to build the texas pacific railroad your other ancestor hugh maxwell in pennsylvania actually built the first turnpike through pennsylvania so that whole maxwell that maxwell part of you is an american entrepreneurial spirit or builders yeah i like that well we're going to

take it into the twenty first century and i'm very excited very moving to meet all this and be part of this get it right i'm crying inside. we're we've got a lot of work to do still you know this trip has gone to a ship heading to the swamp and it's really about rediscovering one's roots and understanding what needs to still be done and taking the the maxwellian global imperative into the next phase well unfortunately he was one of the great builders of the american west america no longer has builders we have private equity sort of extractors and that is extracting assets extracting wealth from all our assets and like leaving a carcass as kind of a locust sort of model. some say is of builder so he does build things a lot older he's a developer you know we're traveling across the country as we have been doing we

staying in a lot of hotels a lot of guys who are building stuff and there are old rose building bridges and these are workin guys and really puts me back in touch with my my roots builder you know i started my career on wall street. as an extractor now i'm getting more in touch with my side as a builder that was interesting being out here in the very remote new mexico last night in our cheap motel there were a lot of cowboy boots left outside the rooms and you saw the guys in the elevator and they had really really really caked on mud boots on and it looked like they were doing something yeah one guy was heading out to the rink that put in a full day's work he said it's almost tough because you've got to artificial knees but you know he was off often running heading back to go to the work site and that's what this country is built on grit grit well let's go look at somewhere this grit and maybe get some grit some kind of hungry that's

a good idea we're not quite down to the south yet. so do you feel like part of the american west. very much so. i think this is a pilgrimage for me personally that has been fulfilled to go back to this to say this gravesite. you know that's always interesting that we are all more connected than way then we think we all have families we all have friends we all have connections to history and the more connected you are the more mentally healthy you are you know mental disease comes from. disconnecting from going away from the connections that make up who you are so for me it's very satisfying to see oh this is part of my ancestral history and here i am i'm on this journey and i'm intersecting with this part of my history as party american history

so i'm connecting you know all multiple different ways the history of new mexico the history of the united states the history of the old west my personal history the history of this gonzo american pilgrimage so it all oh comes together at a very sad. it's a fine way because it's all very connected that way. it's. american stone. here in amarillo texas. it's the cadillac ranch. no misses work and life came from rome out here like alfalfa about their manufacture in detroit or a worm or yeah i have no idea that cadillacs are far out of this is the most unusual car accident ever happened and any interstate ever doesn't get any more gonzo business sorry my paint job you.

gone you're out of room i write you can you tell jacket just in here i'll become part of the art installation and it is easy and i know we go. do i have to stand here now for the rest of my days that is so gonzo i think i ruined your jacket but on the positive front you are immortal now you are. no problem. for all contingencies and in reno has time for nothing. callin on these cadillacs tries. to hurt like this disco there's some truth in it was the internet i was driving down the road what happened and it was

a dirt road selling turquoise on the side of the road i saw the turquoise i saw your image and one of them it was as big as my girl who was in the taco rolled over the highway like a tumbleweed where the whole surface was cracked like the face of a. my grandmother gave me a five dollar bill and i bought some candy corn and i shared it with my friends at school and then they threw rocks and then i threw rocks at this one i heard you speaking with a southern accent i feel a little bit of the other news coming down a day really not that. i think i inhaled too many humans from spain yeah that's got to be a problem here all that paints you this is not the regulation that is or. this is texas. i just want to get me one of these cadillacs and drive away.

she'll be a. student that's been my life for most. of the. day. it was the set of my life who speculate that me or the now with jamie has a hunk of those. now at the five the. hell are you i'm only for that matter i see let him make me forget me or the only measure of how comforting closer he got to grab me is because he sees when i look.

forward to seeing something quite remarkable in the night twenty nine. we're watching a country britain test bed in a nineteenth century bubble really for. almost two hundred years they're going to crash into the twenty first century as if they're just being teleported into the twenty first time. with just manufactured and sentenced to public will. when the ruling close is protect them so. when the crime. lifts and we the woman. we can all middle of the

room sit. in the real news room. so we're crossing texas and of course when you cross texas is a lot of desert and there's a lot of distance between exits. so our sponsor avro was very concerned about us and sent us this bottle just wish we could fill with water but i forgot to fill it with water that will float on the other side of the desert. do you think about the cadillac ranch is it an example of building they will come. within our walls art and art is one of those

parts of any working community society that is the central and if there's one thing really hugely different then the us versus europe is that in europe they understand the value of art in the. community it what it does to lift the community in america they don't see our as being communally uplifting in any way and it's been relegated to the margins and that's not funded and artists are looked down upon as opposed to europe worse complete opposite and yet that clearly was a mecca for people going on pilgrimage to go see this cadillac ranch middle of nowhere texas so they were coming to that i might add that there were italians there were some germans i think i heard some swedes so you know they were being drawn from europe it was inspiring it did look like an american stone hands are equivalent to what our modern society values which is the great american car

when america was a great many people think. you know we're crossing america feels huge out west for sure but the other thing is that it just seems a lot calmer than anything you see on twitter or social media so i kind of feel like social media is where the crazy people go that that makes people crazy it is where the crazy people go. because people are normal outside of twitter that's an interesting thing about it is that these usually powerful people will respond to trolls who have five followers and they'll get into these flame wars and people that are knows where they are you know there's people sitting in a barbershop somewhere in wichita falls texas with nothing to do so they they're in a flame war with nouriel roubini or. bill gates or something they goes on for

a bed then they block one blocks the other and it's over but yeah there's no boundaries as though. wall separating these people and that does smack a bit of americana you know. the absence of a rigid class system although that's changing of course but this all the egalitarian is of democracy openness. is there on twitter and it's being shut down of course because the powers that be paid. to get out terrorism and democracy so they don't like the fact that people are some bling you know ways americans have the right to assemble but that means the right to dissent that means the right to overthrow and that can't be tolerated so twitter is being shut down facebook is being now managed by. you know global government forces who want to keep the dialogue within

a certain narrow range and social media is not just an extension of corporate media . the same thing happened to the internet it started off extraordinarily open and free john perry barlow was writing about it is the true democratic domain and that it got basically corporate ties. their song for soccer got pulled over by the cops. did what it's about my god it's our. guy again yeah. that's al. i guess. they really are. feeling so as not being harassed by the sheriff's. we're going to check out american infrastructure because that's how america owes me greed of course this bridge was actually in use until two thousand and one and of course like everything in america is haunted by this guy going to learn

a suit when a man that kind of looks like mitch firestar. are you doing this here what he's doing on this rickety old bridge that's haunted where the heck are you mad it's own man what are you guys doing here with this get up this is a pure america. colonel sanders meets tom waltz meets don ho yeah i'm here just inviting some clients in the energy markets oh right of course the hardest working man i was there you go to one of them jump off yes i know fracking industry and it makes not one of their clients though those fracking bonds are underwater also matters like oh my god look at it pretty powerful i still think that oil prices are far too high right now because if you look at what's going on around the world in china and elsewhere there's no demand so that means oil prices will come down i see oil going back into the twenty's at some point and then fracking becomes so you spend you spend x. but you're only getting back like less than three cents on the dollar that you're

spending to create these money jobs that mitt america is a great oil nation again where big oil where up there with russia in saudi arabia so you're saying it's a figment of our imagination and it will evaporate overnight well i think that there's a lot of things that are a figment of our imagination and they're about as murky as that water is so i mean when the when the rubber hits the road i think there's going to be a bit of a problem and people are starting to realize that you can't really trust the media because they lie about everything and the politicians are equally as bad so typically in an economy gets this this joint and it ends up causing some social unrest and one thing gaps and are you seeing out as well we've got the greatest wealth inequality in the history of this planet right now and that dispersion is not good when you see something like that you know and you've seen in europe you've seen anti-semitism on the rise in paris with the fire bombings of the synagogues of course we had a horrific shooting in the united states in that synagogue recently and of course

everybody trying to blame donald trump you are from new york which is a very liberal town city and you're jewish how do you feel as an american jew living in this country do you feel this do you feel any sort of anti-semitism rising do you blame donald trump many people are suffering for. trump derangement syndrome so they're trying to blame trump for everything and that the anti-semitism as you know i live between the united kingdom and here has been on the rise in britain for quite a while this isn't because of donald trump and it's not because of donald trump politics i mean i think like if you go back to the one nine hundred thirty s. when hitler came to power you know we saw similar things and what we're seeing now with the social justice warriors and they want to get rid of some of the disney characters and disney stories is akin to the book burnings that they had back then i mean because look you can't rewrite history you should learn from history and it's really important you get into a very dark place and you start to do that when you suppress free thought and free speech it is fascism because i agree with you i'm tolerant i mix up thing i am

diverse intil you disagree with my opinion at which point i become a violent intolerant fascist and be you because it's ok because you must be a nazi if you don't agree with me so i can beat you i can do anything to you violence is acceptable and i think that it's disgraceful how you have politicians in washington like maxine waters or like the former attorney general that are saying you've got to kick them you know you've got to go out and get in their face and harass them so you mentioned the authorities and some parallels with the thirty's of course that came about after the treaty of versailles after world war one reparations had to be paid from germany and they were a dry county in and it set up a disaster in two thousand and eight my question to you is did sixteen seventeen trillion dollars give away to wall street creditors was that equivalent in a way as reparations to wall street that then set up this huge backlash you know i think that the bailouts and you know that i wrote my book because of the bailouts

and i disagreed with the bailouts and if you remember back to the one nine hundred eighty s. when you had the resolution trust company that took the s n l's and actually put bankers in prison i mean i think that's what should have been done bankers should have gone to jail the reason why i wrote my book was because when it. and when the credit crisis hits next time which it will don't say you know it's going to be worse because what you're going to do is take down the entire financial system because all you've done is kick the can down the road to the point at which now we're going to have a crisis like you've never seen before globally which could lead to world war three now how to make america great again because one thing we've also noticed crossing the country is like when we saw max's ancestors' lands he helped build the union pacific railroad he helped finance that part of what made america such a powerful nation was not only our bountiful landscape but the fact that we invested in the country and in infrastructure now the model is one that you know

very well as a private equity guy it's more that private equity extracting all the wealth and assets and equity and not building anything we don't build anything anymore and how do we do that the big problem as as you rightly point out is that financialization and using debt to buy your shares back and pay the c.e.o.'s we pay all the little you know the people that work for you in the in the upper echelons of the company and basically screw over the shareholders and screw over all your employees like amazon for example what happens is you're creating grotesque asset bubbles in the stock market the bond market in the property markets and all of these bubbles are going to explode simultaneously this time and it's kind of like a nuclear sort of thing that sucks the air out of the rest of america because the asset bubbles you talk about are on the coast there in san francisco la branchless washington d.c. and new york and aging of atomic weapons we're in vegas and we're at a bar where they used to watch atomic weapons explode in the desert as entertainment so are we living in an era where these financial atomic weapons and

explosions that you're talking about as they go off it's just covered as entertainment that's the problem you've got the propagandists at the mainstream and traditional media that are pushing forward what they are basically are their political tools moving forward nearer scripted narrative. that most of america just acts like in a boat kind of way and goes. like a very texas relevant metaphor. exactly seen all the cows we drive around here it's amazing here they said it so the barbecue. did oh i haven't had any barbecue going to have anything serious get some brisket join us on the ground. you know i need to correct spectacles this is my theory aren't you have jimi hendrix purple haze which one do you think that i think you'd be my friend yeah purple haze there you go. yeah you're ready for the journey let's go how would you want to talk about twenty dollar oil. dollar oil we don't want to come back and see you hanging

from this bridge. i. know you guys are going to get me arrested. because the swarms of the blue of them so moving. to build your school or local was
