Jason Purcell – The petrodollar system (Part 2) Ep. 93

Check us out on Substack: https://open.substack.com/pub/briandoleary/p/jason-purcell-the-petrodollar-system?r=3c44f&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

We welcome financial analyst Jason Purcell on the program for the second part in a series on the history of money and banking. We’re talking about the “petrodollar” once again.

Jason is working on a book on the topic which includes a chapter about his theory of the “Petrodollar System.” You can find the first episode at our Substack page (and on all podcatchers):

https://briandoleary.substack.com/p/the-petrodollar-system-part-1-w-jason

Jason will be on the show again soon to complete his analysis of the petrodollar system. Once we complete the discussion, we’ll have a longer compilation episode and more robust show notes page for you.

Topics discussed: A Spate Of Recent Deals Raises Chatter Of A Fading Petrodollar (Forbes)

· Jason mentions this article as an entry point into our discussion.

Petrodollar-Saudi Axis Is Why Washington Hates Iran

· Gary Richied article that Jason mentions.

"Petrodollar" search at Mises.org

· https://mises.org/search-mises?search=petrodollar

· Several mises.org articles reference “petrodollar” (36 at last count). Take some time and read the free resources.

· Jason’s theory runs somewhat counter to what you’ll hear in Forbes or mises.org, but it helps to have the background

Not So Fast My Friend!

· Lee Corso autographed 8x10 poster (eBay)

OPEC

· OPEC countries include: Algeria, Angola, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Venezuela

o The host was unaware that Nigeria was a part of OPEC. It is!

Matthew Sercely – Agorist Tax Advisor Ep. 92

Matthew Sercely has been a licensed attorney since 2009, and in 2020 he founded his own company to provide tax advice and planning for small businesses.

He is dedicated to helping entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and side-hustlers by setting up their businesses to legally avoid as much tax as possible.

While he exclusively works with those who have or are starting businesses, Matthew’s weekly newsletter offers general advice that anyone can use.

When he's not screwing with the government, Matthew enjoys camping, weightlifting, and gaming.

For Matthew’s free report on over 60 Business Expense Ideas (and a few personal deductions as well), go to www.agoristTaxAdvice.com/oleary

Topics discussed: 1031 Exchange

· According to Investopedia, a 1031 Exchange is a swap of one real estate investment property for another that allows capital gains taxes to be deferred.

Agorism

· The mises.org wiki defines agorism as the practice of counter-economics and the ideas associated with that practice. Agorist ideas assert that Libertarian philosophy occurs in practice, in the real world, as Counter-Economics. It was first proposed by libertarian philosopher Samuel Edward Konkin III in 1975.

· The Agora program at Boston College we mentioned is now apparently retired: http://agora.bc.edu/

Libertarianism

· On the Natural Order Podcast, we give listeners a primer on libertarianism in episode 1 of the show.

· The Substack page for that show: https://naturalorder.substack.com/p/libertarian-political-philosophy

Austrian Economics

· Also on the Natural Order Podcast, we dedicate a show for our listeners to learn the basics of the Austrian school of economics.

Try as I may, I still can’t shake not being a sports narrowcaster. The topic still comes up.

At some point, I have to accept that it is part of who I am.

An interesting thing came up today when I was listening to a podcast that my friend and Natural Order Podcast co-host Adam Haman was on. They mentioned a “Deep Thought” from Jack Handey.

That got my wheels spinning, and thus this podcast.
