The Jason Stapleton Program

The nature of government creates an incentive for corruption in politicians & corporations. So we spend a lot of time talking about alternatives to the state.

But the truth is, we have the government we have because the market continues to demand a powerful central authority.

And the market will continue to vote for that type of authority until we provide them with better alternatives.

Today I want to talk about the power of incentives. If we understand how people respond to incentives, we can begin working on solutions to the problems created by the state.

Intentions don't matter unless you get the correct outcome. It's important to know what your goals are but after that, it's about making good choices that produce the desired outcome.

If you listen to the media--and even many of your friends & family--they'll tell you to "watch out," "be careful," "play it safe," and "don't risk too much." 

This is because they look at the world as a dangerous place that just keeps getting worse.

But that's not true. We live in the greatest time in human history, and things just keep getting better. 

Change your mindset. Change your life.

Last month, Mexican police arrested the son of El Chapo. The Sinaloa Cartel turned the city of Culiacán into a war zone, demanding his release. And the Mexican government gave in without a fight.

I guess now we know who really holds the power in their country.

American cartels may not have armed gunmen creating open war in the streets, but that doesn't mean they don't own governments in the same way.

Apple's recent investment of $2.5 billion is a good example of the way American cartels use their wealth to buy influence & power over American governments.

Mark today on your calendars, because you won't hear me say this very often: maybe I was wrong.

As the evidence piles up, I'm becoming convinced that, as the memes say, Jeffrey Epstein didn't kill himself.

Most recently, Project Veritas released footage of ABC reporter Amy Robach describing how she was forced years ago to spike a piece exposing Jeffrey Epstein. Wealthy, powerful people will always be held to a different standard than everyone else.

You can get mad about that. Or you can accept it as a fact of life and work to maximize your own wealth, power, & influence.

They want you to think that they saved the economy.

The truth is, they were the ones who created the problems and their "help" has just made it worse.

We are so rich, and food so plentiful that our children now suffer from obesity, diabetes, even heart disease. 

Doctors are now promoting highly invasive surgery to temporarily fix these problems but as usual, they've missed the mark.
