Merica vs the World

There is never enough of everything to satisfy everyone completely.

We don’t get along because we don’t share a culture. 

The advantages of a Lawless State. 

----

Cloward-Piven Communism 

Overwhelm and break the system. 

Chicago, NYC and California can not afford to pay for the services provided to illegals so they are increasing taxes and borrowing funds. 

Government money spent on services crowds out private users. Illegal Immigration

Biden opens border to 10 million randos.

Trump deports a couple hundred criminals. 

Judge demands he stop. 

10,000,000 > 200. By, like, a lot. 

The system can easily frustrate enforcement until the midterms. 

If Ds take House deportations will end. 

People who entered under Biden will stay. They will have kids. Those kids will be American citizens. 

NGOs

Government funds NGOs. 

NGOs and NGO funded “non-profits” act as Agents of the State to avoid Bill of Rights. 

Biden admin sends billions to Democrat Party operatives in the final weeks of administration. 

DOGE orders cuts. 

Judge orders payments. 

Congress passes budget without codifying DOGE cuts. 

Wuhan 

Do illegal research in China. 

Cause pandemic. 

Get rich and famous. 

Apologize for “mistakes” 5 years later. 

Executive Branch Authority 

Must be curtailed and Congress must reassert its authority. 

Or the cycle will simply perpetuate for ever. 

Cloward-Piven from Grok 

The Cloward-Piven strategy is a political theory developed in 1966 by American sociologists and activists Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven. It was introduced in an article titled "The Weight of the Poor: A Strategy to End Poverty," published in The Nation magazine. The strategy proposes a method to address poverty by deliberately overwhelming the U.S. welfare system with a massive influx of applications for benefits. The idea was that this overload would create a crisis, exposing the system's inadequacies and forcing the federal government to enact sweeping reforms, ideally replacing the existing welfare structure with a guaranteed minimum income for all.

The core concept involves mobilizing eligible individuals—particularly the poor—to claim welfare benefits en masse, pushing the system beyond its capacity to function effectively. Cloward and Piven believed this disruption would pressure the government, specifically the Democratic Party (which controlled Congress and the presidency in 1966), to redistribute income more equitably through federal intervention. They argued that the existing welfare system was insufficient and that only a radical restructuring could eradicate poverty.

The strategy has been both praised and criticized. Supporters see it as a bold approach to highlight systemic flaws and advocate for economic justice. Critics, however, argue it promotes chaos and could destabilize society, with some suggesting it has been misused to undermine capitalism or governance altogether. Over time, it has become a topic of debate, with some linking it to historical events like the expansion of welfare rolls in the late 1960s and others viewing it as a theoretical framework rather than a fully realized plan.

We aren't having kids because we've made childhood and parenting a chore. 

Kids are fun. 

Being a kid is fun. 

Same with being a parent. 

A columnist from the NYT was lamenting his son’s study of “dark chapters” in American history. 

He then, of course, blames Trump for destroying his own patriotism in just a few weeks. 

Here’s a pro tip: if a new POTUS destroys your patriotism in 50 days you were never a patriot to begin with. 

Reality vs Utopia

You must judge historical people and events:

• in the time they lived/occurred 
• relative to other possible outcomes 

Pandering Sophistry

If you believe you are on stolen land and America is terrible for not immediately applying every aspect of the Declaration: 

• give your land back
• stop promoting communism, an ideology 100% at odds with the values and ideals of the Declaration 

The Conservative Governor of California? lol. What? 

First - had a question from a listener about government spending and the middle class. I’ll answer it tomorrow. 

Second - I only swear once today and it's for a good cause. 

2028 POTUS

Trump does well, Vance becomes POTUS. 

Trump doesn’t do well, a Democrat becomes POTUS. 

The Democrat Bench is not great: 

• Former VP Harris - zero shot 
• Governor Shapiro - best of luck with the Hamas caucus 
• Former First Lady Obama - maybe 
• Tim Waltz - too masculine (lol)
• AOC - maybe 

Which leaves an opening for a well connected political weasel like Gavin Newsom to work his way into the Oval Office. 

“Politicians will, 100% of the time, everywhere always and forever steal from your future to improve theirs.”

Quick History of Dollar Destruction 

• 1913 - Federal Reserve Established 
  • Central Banks LOVE consolidation, currency devaluation and asset appreciation
• 1933 - Executive Order 6102
  • FDR demands privately held gold be turned into the Federal Reserve 
  • buys it for $20/ounce
  • promptly changes value to $35/ounce 
  • thus devaluing the dollar by creating money via executive fiat 
• 1944 - Bretton Woods 
  • USD as Reserve Currency 
  • backed by gold 
• 1971 - Nixon removes dollar peg to gold at $35/ounce 
  • It’s fiat time! 

“Politicians will, 100% of the time, everywhere always and forever steal from your future to improve theirs.”

Me, 2025 

The Trouble with Made in America 

Fiat Currency + Reserve Currency Status + Politicians = lol you’re doomed. 

1. Money printing has a 100% ROI…for a while 
   1. why build cars when you can print money? 
   2. Print money → offshore production → use USD like a hammer 
2. Eventually money printing causes inflation 
   1. which drives interest rates up domestically 
   2. why invest in an auto plant when the government pays 7% risk free? 
3. Inflation Kills Middle Class (we are here) 
4. Modern Monetary Theory 
5. War 
6. End of Empire 

That’s it that’s all I’ve got.

Jasmine Crockett is the new AOC. Who will be her MTG? 

1. The Goal of Progressivism is consolidation, not economic empowerment for the poor. 

2. Trump foreign policy is an extension of the domestic Culture War
