join me every thursday on the alex sullivan show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports there's this i'm show business i'll see you then. new gold rush is underway in ghana thousands of ill equipped workers are flocking to the gold fields hoping to strike it rich here's a good way out as they are by those that were children are torn between gold and education a family was very poor i thought i was doing my best to get back to school which side will have the strongest appeal.

i am max kaiser this is the kaiser report you know about 3 years ago i think that we invented the term or coined the term neil feudalism i see it all the time now we did it again stacy well certainly you know i had joe biden seems to praise himself and his administration as being f.d.r. like and what i kind of see it as being. more and more comfortable in the last days of empires to assert your imperial powers for your domestic economy so we have the resource curse situation whereby just like in saudi arabia where they just pump oil and they have 5000 maybe 7000 princes and they keep them on really nice lifestyles well now we're getting comfortable just printing printing cash is the same as pumping oil so we had that huge jobs mess right last week and that was 826-6000 jobs added 11000000 were expected by economists and on top of that there

had also banned. downgrade of what had been added the previous month so they said and march that we had added $900000.00 jobs but in fact it was only $700000.00 jobs and yet there are over there are nearly 7 and a half 1000000 job openings right there the app with you know jobs being advertised 7 a half 1000000 across the economy but nobody feels like working so the word of the day is shortage why can't employers find workers there are millions of job openings but no takers and this is from miss talk dot com and he points to this chart from indeed and they show that applicants get out the change in job openings and applications since january 2020 and you see in the orange line there that the openings have. soared and yet applications are declining so nobody's going in to take these jobs but the 2nd chart shows that the biggest job jobs are actually

in manufacturing so it's not like it's just people are like i'd rather stay home and we're not work and i earn more staying home with a $300.00 extra week now for enhanced unemployment benefits and why would i go work at mcdonald's or fast food these are manufacturing jobs as well that are being hit people aren't showing up to apply for those jobs yet is like saudi arabia you know they're part of the biggest component there of the cartel opec yeah and the u.s. is the biggest component in the cartel known as us dollar global hegemony and back of the depression of course there were no jobs and people went hungry here we have millions of jobs and people are still going to go hungry because the inflation that's being on the least his monumental and food is getting out of reach for many people and can also energy costs so whether it's an inflationary depression or do

you place a very depression when you put central planners in charge of the result is always the same total economic malfunction i kind of think as well that the game theory that happened that foresee us off the gold standard in $1071.00 was unfortunate the french were very good at it because they're good at figuring out ways of not ever having to work right and getting paid and the french were watching and understanding what was going on so they called their gold back and the same thing it's like everybody knows that there's an exorbitant privilege to this day on one hand for the elite on the other hand there's the treffen dilemma and that absence basically hollowing out of manufacturing that had to happen post gold standard so but that exorbitant privilege they pretended for a long time here in the u.s. that it was only like we tried to contain it that it was not nationwide it wasn't for 340. 1000000 americans but now it seems to be that they've just like given up that pretense they've just said ok we'll all stay home and live like

a hedge fund manager right oh right exactly true millions of americans now understand how hedge funds live like 10 griffith citadel who has ben bernanke and the board they get these transfer payments from the government free money as 0 percent interest and they used to speculate and if they win they keep the money and if they lose they get bailed out so same thing with millions of americans now they're getting transfer payments from the government or getting checks directly from the government and they use that to go speculate these day trading out and if they lose money they're banking on just getting more checks and of course they will get more checks because they've started this cycle now where they can really stop selling the checks because one it would cause immediate social cohesion risk insurrection and be it would mean that banks go under and the banks of course don't want to go under and they're the ones calling the shots they're still the game theory of whether or not china will continue to send us goods whether they'll

continue manufacturing for us and sending it and you know it also is a similarity to the end of the spanish empire when you know they ruled the we in the latin america south america region and just plundered the gold and the same thing happened there whereby spanish themselves ended up not having to work and they just brought in french people to fill their farms and do things like that and that's where i mean we've already had the exploiting of all our manufacturing jobs and that as we say all the time is innovation and growth and progress happens on the on the factory floor we don't have that anymore but now we don't even have people working in a mcdonald's and figuring out you know customer service or something like there's this is the next level this is like the end of the spanish empire days this is what happened there and. it could be what's happening now. the end of the spanish empire the end of the british empire the end of the roman empire and you have some

similarities and differences but the 3 cities trap we talk about the rise of one nation in this case china and the fall of the ruling at the time this case the united states we've got all those kinds of things happening right now the people who are least informed about this are the americans themselves because the cable news network of course the corporate news it's not in their interest to actually prepare people for this they're just considered to be expendable remember hillary clinton called them deplorable i think what she really meant was that there are expendable so where pumping dollars like the saudis pump oil and i'll show you the data in this headline here fed's q e amid everything meaning our total assets are now $7.00 trillion dollars more than doubled in 18 months since repo market blowout so you know they

started tapering a bit from their may 5th high they've cut back by $50000000000.00 in their balance sheet but wait since the repo market blew out in september $21000.00 this can do fed has added 4 trillion dollars to its balance sheet more than doubling it and 18 months that's how nuts these efforts have been to bail out the biggest speculators inflate the biggest everything mania and create the biggest wealth disparity america has ever seen all of it in the shortest amount of time just for your amusement if you look at the chart of the fed's balance sheet this is during the financial crisis of 20082009 when kaiser report started right around there and look how much it's grown since then it was oh it was such a wee little b.b. it was only 2 trillion dollars. right to be clear if the fed may have tapered slightly at some point remember all the subtle banks around the world are

coordinating their policies and no point over these past 20 years so we have never a day net global taper or decrease in central bank asset purchases so on or give basis only. in terms of such a bank i get purchases on their balance sheets and this of course to get back to me a feudalism is leading to me a feudalism because all of the purchase of all those securities is a transfer payment to the bankers on wall street and their friends and simultaneously driving the price of food and energy so that most people can't afford it anymore because it's causing inflation now and we're going to end up as you say like saudi arabia where the population is expendable right you've got the 5000 princes they have all the wealth and everyone else is essentially expendable and there is no rule of law they're simply autocracy in the us now you've got

a autocracy of central bankers and central planners and everyone else is expendable and they're going to be really struggling to feed themselves so well in the 1st headline i talked about the people the 340000000 ordinary americans like the spanish empire the end of the last days of the spanish empire when they had so much gold that they even forgot how to work until then they had too much gold and it caused inflation then let's compare it to the roman empire with this next bit because the fed's balance sheet so we said it's over 7 trillion $1.05 trillion of it is treasuries that's like monetizing your debt that's queen clipping that's the essential of essentially queen clipping just like the romans dead to finance their wars and their hungry people and give them bread and circuses and that brings me to the other one the bread and circuses of the roman empire. and what to all westerners is a quite common in english speaking language places and particularly like the united

states united kingdom of strategy or canada they love their property problems they love their housing bubbles of course on scandinavian countries too but they have over 2 trillion dollars of mortgage backed securities and. street asks why the heck is the fed still buying any mortgage backed securities the u.s. housing market has spiraled totally out of whack and yet the fed keeps adding mortgage backed securities to its pile now at 2.2 trillion dollars to push down mortgage rates and pump up housing prices so this is the bread and circuses part of maintaining this. you know this last thing is i guess it's like when you're when you're you're well is about to run now right and that is the dollar spigot you might as well pump it as hard as you can that happens with almost all the many oil wells they just pump and pump and pump and whatever they can get out of it they'll

get the drags out of it but this is that the bread and circuses cart of it in my opinion right so these mortgage backed securities are on the balance sheets of the banks and the fed buys them back and they give them a value $0.10 on the dollar but there are distorting the economy so much and people can't afford housing and that's part of the things they won't be able to afford including food and energy had housing authority impossible to get health care really or so they result is impoverishment and that's what we're seeing due to the. talker see emerging in the central planners of the central banks and buying back mortgage backed securities is another bailout of the banks it's a rolling bailout of these insolvent banks that don't have any net book value book value. of all the major wall street banks is negative they have no both value it's a it's a complete farce but the complete farce only somebody has to call it that's how

game theory works the united states u.s. dollar standard post bretton woods was a farce until de gaulle sent a naval chef and got his gold back then and the farce ended somebody has to call it not everybody could live americans living off your house price gains as something new don't merican that's something we saw for a long time in the u.k. we witnessed it like lots of our friends who just extract equity from their house prices which were going up 2 or 3 times the average wage and the united kingdom so if you have a property you happen to have bought it in the eighty's and you are sitting pretty and not having to work but eventually somebody has to work and somebody if you're working you want to you want to make sure i like hey why does everybody else in the world why did these billions of people get to sit around on my hard labor maybe might start asking for our so hard money right but claim is the spec of attack calling time on the central banks people like michael saylor and are going to cause

huge changes ok they will be come back much more coming your way.

welcome back to the kaiser report imax kaiser it's i'm going to turn to alex he's the founder of amber app check it out i also wrote a piece that's really interesting here fast as i'm and communism this is our 2nd little segment here alex walking back and you ask oh all right so now in this piece and he recently tweeted that if theory home is the state sponsored attack on bitcoin so a theory i am is a crypto coin it's not brave calling it's it's got a high so called market capitalization has been around for a while and it's got

a lot of controversy surrounding it your thoughts here is that it is the state sponsor attack on bitcoin ok what was the get into that please well let's let's think about. the state conflict they realized early on that they contradict or not you know the trial it's all growed you know they've they've said all sorts of stuff they've been discredited at the screen it's in it's 10 years they realise that ican get control of the mining you know we saw what happened you know so they could go off that o'clock so students sort of this it can survive all of these different attacks and also to be true the other day because i didn't tweet prior to this one a couple days ago i said i had been well queen. for for like 2 years at least that i can't believe like what's on there at the moment i look at all those late fees like that is that the world lost its mind once again and and i

saw how like what it hears marcus of monaco who are late this is it's ridiculous and i started thinking about. you know what what does a theorem represent and i thought ok you've got a couple nodes who they tried to change because. they couldn't so they decided to. end of their own digital filters of taking up what if hearing is so they go and do that and they sort of they you know get themselves a little wonderfully you know if it's i like to know if it's the opposite of the silicon valley genius because he's got you know he's somewhere on the spectrum and you know people don't understand what he's talking about so he he he seems like he's someone smart of kind of like elizabeth hunch right there in austin and sort of how she and her self to sort of step one is you know create that and then create a bit of a buzz around to quincy excess and say look this is the next a point in trying to sort of co-opt and create all these kind of silicon valley

esque marketing. messages around the world computer raising money for you know that these what we couldn't invest in things before and all this sort of. madness i guess the we see in the last couple of years says it sort of step 2 is you got this silicon valley back which gives it this kind of feeling of regional mystique and security in the light of the rise of test floor and the same stocks and everything that's happening else everything else athenaeum has that you know what happens is millions of people around the well who don't understand money like we said in the previous statement is you know people here will they accept the toilet paper issued to them by a governments and then assume that that's a good place to you know good mechanism through which to measure the part of their label it's just that in question what money it spends they sort of like have this we had a blend of all right here it's like quint but it's like a company complex a look at that it's like a wonder boy there so it's kind of the lendell of this together have no idea what they're buying so they just put

a bunch of capital and sell it and you end up having all these people holding this centrally managed digital that's issued by a group of developers who pretty minded who kept the bulk of that for themselves and then what you get is. the state comes in and says ah this is great you know instead of us having to build a central bank to try to from scratch from scratch this is partner with these guys . let's just take them over and tell them what to do because unlike big coins we can hold the head of the snake and we can tell it what to do we can direct it when we get when we come to that so the best i think a tactic to sort of discredit coin and suits and drive capital away from big crime is through something like a theorem i think i think it's a must strike and it's the best chance the state has to try and fight the court. right well what is clear is that unlike bitcoin it's theory him and

other if theory and like projects like car donahoe they're not be centralized they're not they're not the centralized they're centralized for example on the theory is case something like 25 percent of the servers are on r. and amazon amazon web services so these like $75.00 but you know ok well the fact that the point being that it could be simply taken over or shut down or it's not people the point i think you need to make here is that you're making is that people kind of put it in the same basket as because but it's not it's something really whether it's a theory and work on dano or x r.p. or any of these other coins their closest analog is free up money is just another form of money. 100 percent right and you're suggesting that a bad state actor could easily co-opt this unholy digital fee out money.

substitute and and so now you're thinking though that there's more to it and that. there's actually some grooming going on behind the scenes where they're turning this this young man in this kind of a manchurian scientist digital site computer scientist who they're going to basically can they control and when you do the reason i think you could come to vaca inclusion is that the project is so vastly inferior to pick that it's that the fact that it gets any traction whatsoever you know you need to you need to really put a concerted effort into that from all layers of the power structure oh misspeaking a power structure the economist magazine was out with a cover story on central bank digital currencies and they were hailing them as a composite. live for the global economy you're speaking of state actors and

digital money what do you think of us all as i hear my brother about yesterday now saying look i said i'm in this for financial freedom and so so my brother is a trader and trades traditional you know during that is all the sort of stuff and he and he's sort of you know been clearly dismissive of pick on an old his life now he trades at the beach you know which way the price right. and anyway he's like i'm in a presidential freedom to and i'm going to know united of financial freedom you're in a make dollars which doesn't give you any form of flash freedom because your money is the pendant upon someone's promise said the money that i'm lucky to accumulate the wealth that i'm looking you know it is not the on the promise of an institution a state or organization it is rooted in the 2nd law of thermodynamics says so so so that to me is what separates big calling from all of these other forms of c. outby to therion the it the traditional us the whole opiate the yuan albeit these new digital currency is that they want to shift from the central extract now the

good thing about the central banks is all the central bank there's a recurrence you know we see the ramifications of large scale tech companies having the ability to sense and speech right and speech is the stuff that you just say out of your mouth right so whatever accentuate of this that wherever the magic and organization having has that it's a sense of your human action so there is no wall fundamental form of speech that human action which is the things you do so i always say to people it's like don't tell me what you believe show me a bank account and i'll tell you what you believe right so people do what they believe through their actions and their actions measure through where they spend their money and what they do it on the central bank digital currency the issue and will have the capacity to decide when you should spend how you should spend for what reason you should. and how much you should spend on what it's ridiculously you

know china's trialing their version of they're going to pay and expire each day to your money so that they can stimulate spending. do people not see the trap that the sort of walking into system this is not that is a categorical. reversal of civilization it is not a progression of civilization because it is a progression of civilization that occupies a small decision making to be done at the level of the individual not the level of the bureaucracy each day know what is right for everybody else right so they have the ability to engage in the massive psyop. and we see this in the casino industry all the time so for example they they should have digital currency now they have a thumb print or a fingerprint or a schematic of your actions and your motivations and your human profile and psychology and they discern after and out lies in the data that you have

a weakness for chocolate chip cookies sound now they know that they can nudge you with chocolate chip cookies either overtly or come covertly so that if they want you to vote let's say not for that candidate for president but they wanted a vote for the other candidate for president then your interaction with that screen for your social media or something else is going to be laden with either subliminal or overt advertisements or giveaways of chocolate chip cookies very innocent but they know psychologically that you cannot resist talkative cookies of course it gets more devious as you delve into the human consciousness and you find perkin delos that are we have spent thousands of years and institutional. you know time and effort to to to. deal with but never the less so you're saying that the ability to. the take away

individual choice is here viz of a this 24 hour surveillance tape that is digital money out well let's play it out certainly not you've got a bank account and you've got you know check box or i mean i actually think it's going to be some version of the theory and you know i think with the state so let's say you know some sort of in the area i'm durant of 10 bucks or you one box you got that in your count now you and i macs jump on upon costs and we say something that is supposedly not the correct will instead of just shutting down our channel they'll just shut down our bank account and for a week you can buy groceries we're going to go and steal the groceries you know you don't do that then you end up in jail so it's like it's it is the old summit's form of control there is no better form of like complete control of an individual and the control over their money and then money is a representation of

a human action so she can specifically tell someone what to do and what they can cannot do through that says i i just that's such a dangerous dangerous pathway for humanity and civilization and why we have to live that again that's what the quote represents it's a push back against the other right and here in the states some states are pushing back more that wyoming miami and florida and elsewhere the politicians are aware of this and they're kicking these scoundrels out but anyway alex route of time thanks so much for being on kaiser report. thank you now it's all right and that's going to do it for this edition of kaiser report was made max kaiser and stays there but want to thank our guests alex that's gay he's there amber after until next time by all.

no one has ever cruised around the globe in an inflatable catamaran before. you can reach the summit. because. it is such a cruise you need a solid crew people you can share folks whole with so to speak. you do political. stuff. who wants to have the most people who you know let me ask you that you just love a bit of my food don't get the flu with. what you need for if you need stuff we've got the one the freedom to maybe you know.

new york is really what america is about. when our mayor took a very he was elected because of his campaign on our city being a tale of 2 cities babs and i have not and those who have not are usually the ones who were being very hard out of the city has always wanted to forget about iowa city has wanted to forget about the people who are buried there wanted to forget about. the fact that there is a potter's field that there is a place where difficult stories are hit the sack they were using inmates to maintain this act is very a site where 1000000 souls are buried where so much of new york city history is buried is document of the inequality that existed in this city for centuries.
