1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,559 Speaker 1: Politics is a scam, and here's how to win. 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 2: Now. 3 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: When it comes to politics, you've often heard that it's 4 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,479 Speaker 1: a scam, my vote doesn't count, there's nothing I can do. 5 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: Is it going to be free and fair? Will they 6 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,440 Speaker 1: do mail in? You know you're hearing headlines about is 7 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 1: it the most important election of our life? Well, in 8 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,480 Speaker 1: this section, I want to talk about what all that means, 9 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: Why people think politics is a scam, why it really 10 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: is a scam, but how we can win in the 11 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 1: face of politics being a scam. Now, if you're just 12 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 1: doing and you're listening to the Mark Moss Show, I 13 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,840 Speaker 1: try to bring to you some new insights into politics, finance, 14 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: and technology and really the intersection of those three things. 15 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: And as many headlines are showing right now. As a 16 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:48,519 Speaker 1: matter of fact, I saw Ray Dalio on TV the 17 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: to day saying this will be the most important election 18 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: of our lives. I want to talk a why that's 19 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: a big scam. But I am not saying to not participate, 20 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: but rather I think we should be participating in a 21 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: different way if we want to win. If we want 22 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: to win, what if we want to win a country 23 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: that lives by that pushes, that allows that enforces, that 24 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: cultivates our values, we the people's values, all right, And 25 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about this in a way where 26 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,479 Speaker 1: I'm actually going to lay out a game plan. I'm 27 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: urging you to listen to this entire show, listen to 28 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: the plan that I've laid out, and then get back 29 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: to me. And more specifically, if you are somebody who 30 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: has been in politics, if you're somebody who's worked in politics, 31 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: could be anywhere from city council all the way up 32 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 1: to presidential campaign, or if you're somebody who's interested in 33 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: running for anything from city council up to president, reach 34 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: out to me and let me know. All right, I'm 35 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: putting together something that I think we can win with, 36 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: and I'm going to break it down to you today 37 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: for the very first time I've ever put this out 38 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: there in public, and so make sure to stick with me. 39 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: All right, So, the great scam of politics and how 40 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: we can win. So the first thing is why are 41 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: we so caught up with politics? Anyway, Let's just talk 42 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: about that for a second. You know, politics sort of 43 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: plays on a lot of our human emotions. Some of 44 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: it is that, you know, we as humans are tribal, 45 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 1: We want to be part of the group, and so 46 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: being part of you know, being involved in politics brings 47 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: some sort of fulfillment to us. It makes us feel 48 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: like we're part of the group, and it gives us 49 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: a sense of purpose. I want to be responsible. I 50 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: want to help push my group, my tribes ideology forward. 51 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: It's what I want, it's what we want. We're going 52 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: to help push that forward. It's part of the reason 53 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: why people are so attracted to team sports, you see. 54 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: I mean, how many grown men are walking around with 55 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: somebody else's name and number on their back right. They 56 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: want to identify with the team. I've never been that 57 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 1: big into sports that way, but I remember years ago, 58 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: when I was younger, I had a roommate and he 59 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: was like mister Baseball. He would watch every baseball game 60 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: and he would literally hold the bat. He would like 61 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: hold a bat on the couch while he was like 62 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: watching it. And it was always we did this and 63 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: we did that, and I'm like, you're not playing anything, 64 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: You're just sitting on the couch with the bat. But 65 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: we want to identify with these teams and we want 66 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: to wear their colors. And that's just part of human 67 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: nature because we are tribal. And it's also because we 68 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 1: like competition. We want to advance our ideology or our 69 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 1: viewpointer our team, whatever it may be. It also works 70 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: on the chemistry in our brain. Being engaged with politics 71 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: releases a massive amount of dopamine in our brain, and 72 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: we get addicted to that, and so we want more 73 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: and more and more of that. 74 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 2: So when you. 75 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: Watch these political debates and these political headlines, and a 76 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: lot of times they're very emotionally charged, and it's that 77 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: emotion that releases that dopamine, and you want more and 78 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: more of it, and then you feel like you can 79 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: do something about it. Then you want to go talk 80 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: about it, and so then you're involved that you're playing 81 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: on the team, your red team, your blue team. Now, 82 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: of course they know that, they being the political machine, 83 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: let's just call it that, they understand that, which of 84 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: course is why they want to divide us, and they 85 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 1: want to get us caught up in this red versus Blue, 86 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: Republican versus Democrat, or maybe a third party animediary, the 87 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: independent party. But either way, they want us to be divided. 88 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: They want us to identify, and then they want us 89 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: to compete against each other. Meanwhile, we're so busy competing 90 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: against each other that we're not watching what's really going on. Now, 91 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,799 Speaker 1: that's not the scam that I'm talking about, though, here's 92 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: the scam that I'm talking about. 93 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: Right now. 94 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 1: All eyes are on what they're saying is the most 95 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: important election of our life. And that election that we're 96 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: talking about is, of course the presidential election that happens 97 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: every four years, so right now we're in an election year. 98 00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: It's driving financial markets, it's driving the media cycles. Even 99 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: talking about it now, I don't typically talk about politics. 100 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: I talk about the intersection of politics, finance, and technology. 101 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 1: So where they make a political decision that affects technology 102 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: or finance, you know they're going to pass a bill 103 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: that's gonna criminalize bitcoin, for example, I would talk about that, 104 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: but I don't typically talk about politics overall. But here 105 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: I am talking about it. It drives all cycles, financial cycles, 106 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 1: media cycles as well. However, I'm talking about how we 107 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: can beat the scam and we can actually win. Make 108 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: sure you stick around. I'm gonna lay this out for 109 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: you in a step by step blueprint. Okay, but all 110 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: eyes are on the on the president. This is why 111 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 1: it's a scam. What do I mean by that. So 112 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,559 Speaker 1: a lot of the questions that you have about should 113 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: I even vote, like I said, might be you might 114 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: be asking yourself, like I said, does my vote even count? 115 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: I mean, there's three hundred and thirty million people. Well, 116 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: now are a few more million because of immigration, but 117 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: you know, roughly three hundred and thirty three hundred fifty 118 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 1: million people in the United States. What's my vote gonna do? 119 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: Does it even matter? Or you might say, well, it's 120 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: not a free and fair election. You know, they're gonna 121 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: just flood it with whatever mail in ballots anyway, and 122 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: my vote's probably not even gonna matter. 123 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 2: Or yeah, the. 124 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: Mail in the mail in ballot's gonna ruin everything, or 125 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: it's not what the people want anyway. Right, it's the 126 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: electoral college. They're the one that's bought and paid for. 127 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: So even if the population, the mass population wants somebody, 128 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: the electoral college could still go the other way. So 129 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: you might be thinking all these things. And that's why 130 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: it's a scam. It's a scam because I'm engaged and 131 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: I do something, but it doesn't even matter. I was 132 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: promised that if I gave my voice, that I would 133 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: have a say that I have an interest, I can 134 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: shape the country. But it's not true. So it's a scam. Right, 135 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: I was promised something, I didn't get it. That's the 136 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: definition of a scam. And again we're seeing these headlines 137 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: it's the most important election of our life, but really 138 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: is it. And here's that's why it's a scam. 139 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 2: Two reasons. 140 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: One, we are not in a democracy or a dictatorship, 141 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: or a or a monarchy for that matter. A monarchy 142 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: is a king. A king makes the decisions. A dictator 143 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: makes the decisions. We're not in that. We're not even 144 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: in a democracy. 145 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 2: They tell you that we are. 146 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: They're telling you the Biden administration is telling you they're 147 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: trying to protect the democracy. We're not in a democracy. 148 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: We're in a republic. If you went to school in 149 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: the United States, you know, and to the republican which 150 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: it stands one nation under God, right, you put your 151 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: hand over your heart, and you said that. In a republic. 152 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 2: And here's why it matters. 153 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: In a constitutional republic, the president doesn't matter. 154 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: It shouldn't matter. 155 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: Let's say that it shouldn't really matter. The president manages 156 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: federal things. Now, over the course of time, more and 157 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: more things have become federal, and so it does matter 158 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: to us more and more and more. But in the 159 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: big scheme of things, the president doesn't really matter. Just 160 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: look back to the pandemic for example. So you have 161 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: during the pandemic when was still there, you had in Seattle, 162 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: you know, people were taking over the downtown the Free 163 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: State of chaz or whatever it was, or building their barricades. 164 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: In Portland, you got Antifa and BLM burning down cities 165 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: and things like that, and a lot of people were 166 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: asking Trump to intervene, sent troops stop that, and he's like. 167 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 2: Hey, it's up to the states. 168 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: It's up to the states. Or even look at the 169 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: counting of the votes with Trump, like a lot of 170 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: states were saying, take it to the Supreme Court and 171 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: the Spreme Court. It's up to the states. Right, So 172 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: we can see this, We can see this time and 173 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: time again that the president doesn't have the most power 174 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: of our life. And so the scam, or we could 175 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: call it an illusion sort of like magic, sleight of hand. 176 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: Magic says hey, look over there, and then when you're 177 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: looking over there, they do this to you over here. 178 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: See that's how it works, And that's sort of what's 179 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: happening where we're all focused on the most important election 180 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: of our lifetime, on the president, when it doesn't even 181 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: really matter. It shouldn't matter. The other reason why it's 182 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: a scam is that it sets this goal. It sets 183 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: this this goal that we're driving to you, we're trying 184 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: to retain and it's so big and it's so far 185 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 1: that it becomes self defeating. Well, we can't win the president, 186 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,319 Speaker 1: why should we even try? Or I like RFK Junior, 187 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: he's going to go for an independent. I want to 188 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: vote libertarian, but there's no way we're going to get 189 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: a libertarian canon why should I even try? Now? I 190 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: want to take a quick break and just let you 191 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: know that regardless of who wins the election, rhet or 192 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: blue or independent for that matter, the one thing that 193 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 1: we do know is for certain is more money printing 194 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: is coming. We had Biden spent more than Trump. Trump 195 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: spent more than Obama. Obama spent more than Bush. And 196 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter rhet or blue, everyone's going to spend 197 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: more money. They're going to steal your wealth through inflation. 198 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: If you're just tuned in, you're listening to the Markmoas 199 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: Show talking about why politics is a scam, but how 200 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: we can win. I'm going to give you the blueprint 201 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: on how to do that after a quick break, non't 202 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 1: go awad be right? All right, welcome back. If you 203 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: just tune in, you're listening to the Markmas Show. We're 204 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 1: talking about why politics is a scam, but how we 205 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: can win. I went through a lot. I'm not going 206 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: to recamp all that. But the point of me saying 207 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: that as a scam is because it's sort of like 208 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: magic or slide of hand. 209 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 2: We're all being. 210 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: Told that the president is the most important election of 211 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 1: our life. It's like magic. Hey look over there. Meanwhile, 212 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: they're doing this to us over here. And it's also 213 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 1: self defeating because the attainment of changing the presidential party 214 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: or starting a third party to break the two party system, 215 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 1: if you'll call it that, it's kind of a single 216 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: party system. It's so big it's not even attainable. 217 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 2: Why sh I try. 218 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 1: That's the problem with setting big goals. I'm going to 219 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 1: make a billion dollars in thirty days. Well that's not 220 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: going to happen, so I probably won't do anything. But 221 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: if I said I only want to make one dollar 222 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: in thirty days, I'd probably do that and then two 223 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: dollars and three dollars, et cetera. 224 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 2: And so that is the key that locks this down. 225 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: We're going to break this down for I'm going to 226 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 1: give you the blueprint on exactly how to do this, 227 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: and I want to lay this out. But part of 228 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: the scam is, again we're looking over there, we're looking 229 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: at the president. Meanwhile, remember the slide of hand, look 230 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: over there. Meanwhile they're doing this over here. So while 231 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: we're all focusing on the president, that shouldn't matter to 232 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,559 Speaker 1: our lives. And the goal is so big it self, 233 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: defeating what really matters is local. Local is what matters. 234 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: And they've got us to completely overlook and completely ignore. 235 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 2: All local politics. 236 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: And not only are we overlooking and ignoring it, meanwhile 237 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 1: they're coming and taking it all over. Now you've probably 238 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: heard many times, you've heard people talking about, like Tucker 239 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: Carlson talking about George Soros taking over all the district attorneys. 240 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 1: So they're changing the legal system through what we call 241 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: law fair by taking over the legal system, by taking 242 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: over the das, by setting the judges, and so this 243 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: is being done right under your nose. While you're being 244 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: told to look at the president that doesn't matter and 245 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: isn't attainable. They're quietly taking all the things that do. 246 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: What happens is if we abdegate all personal responsibilities, somebody 247 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: else is going to step in and fill that gap. 248 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: So when we say I don't want to be involved, 249 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: which I don't, I don't want to be involved, and 250 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: probably you don't either. I'm busy, I got kids, I 251 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 1: got a business. I want to go surfing. I want 252 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: to live my life. I don't want to go city, 253 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 1: city council, or county meeting or state meeting or any 254 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: of that. I don't want to go knockdoors and try 255 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 1: and get people that. I don't want to do any 256 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: of that. But when we abdegate all responsibilities, somebody else 257 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: is going to step in to fill that gap, and 258 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: most likely it's going to be somebody that we don't want. 259 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 2: All right now, let me give you. 260 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: An example real quick before I move on to what 261 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: winning looks like. And I want to give you this 262 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 1: blueprint or plan of how we can do this, how 263 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: we can change the world this way. But let me 264 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,839 Speaker 1: just give you an example. So California led the race. 265 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,599 Speaker 1: They competed with New York to see who could be 266 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:50,199 Speaker 1: the most authoritarian during the pandemic, right, Gavin Newsom. Gruesome. 267 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: Newsom passed all kinds of laws, rules, regulations. I mean, 268 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: you go to San Francisco, Los Angeles, it was like 269 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: a war zone. It was like a zombie nation. But 270 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 1: I'm in the county down below, down in Orange County, 271 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: and Orange County was like completely different than Los Angeles County. 272 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: I mean it was like night and day like literally, 273 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: So my county, the people that ran my county county 274 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 1: supervisors were different than the LA supervisors, and so my 275 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 1: county was way different than LA. It was like it 276 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: was like a different state altogether. The sheriff of my 277 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: county literally put out a press release and said, do 278 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 1: not call us for anything COVID related because we will 279 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: not come. So, you see, my sheriff, my local sheriff, 280 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: had more power over what happened to me during the 281 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,319 Speaker 1: pandemic than the president did, or my state senators or 282 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: any of that. My sheriff mattered, my county supervisors mattered. 283 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: Now in my town, I'm not gonna tell you what 284 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: it is, but in my town in Orange County was 285 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: even better. So in my town, They're like, we're not 286 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 1: doing any of this. And so my little town in 287 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: my county was like it was like a different country. 288 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 1: It was like Sweden, it was like Florida. And so 289 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: my my town, my city count was more important, my 290 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: county supervisors, my shriff is more important then my governor, 291 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: more important than my president. 292 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 2: So the closer politics is to us, the more important 293 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 2: it is. 294 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: Now in another town here in Orange County, Huntington Beach, 295 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: when everyone started talking about mask coming back and all 296 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: that stuff, a few months ago, they put the city 297 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: council passed a bill that would have no vaccine mandates 298 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: and no mask mandates in town. They said, we're preemptively 299 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: going to do this, so you can see how much 300 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: power it is. But none of us are paying attention 301 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: to it. We're all caught up watching Fox News all 302 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: night or CNN whatever channel you're watching, watching about the president. 303 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: That's the scam. Look over there all right now, what 304 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: does winning look like? People have been losing for so 305 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: long they wouldn't know when if it literally landed on 306 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: their face. Vivid Ramaswami, who was running for president, who 307 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: made a big splash, who just conceded and decided to 308 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: join Trump. He said in one of the debates, he said, 309 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: the Republican Party is. 310 00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 2: A party of losers, a party of losers. See this 311 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 2: all over. 312 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: I see these people that just are so addicted to 313 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: losing they can't take a win. So, for example, I've 314 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: been talking a lot about the president Melia down in Argentina. 315 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 2: He won. 316 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: Now he came in to radically transform the government, basically 317 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: shut down all these parasitic agencies inside the government and 318 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: radically transform it. And everybody's like, oh, they'll never let 319 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: him win. They'll never let him win. They'll never let 320 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: him win. They'll never let somebody like that come in 321 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: and make reform. But then he does win, and then 322 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: people are like, oh, he's just a planned, he's just 323 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: a weftshill, like he's a whatever. 324 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 2: Right, So it's like. 325 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: They just can't take the win no matter what happens. 326 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 1: They just want to be the victim all the time. 327 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: But winning looks like us actually winning, us actually getting 328 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: what we want to happen. And we can do that 329 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: if we organize and make a plan, and we can 330 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 1: see the world is shifting back to vivic I mean, 331 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: he brought a massive amount of enthusiasm and energy that 332 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: we haven't seen that the world has been lacking for decades. 333 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: In my opinion, I haven't seen this in my life. 334 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: Vivid came from obscurity, from nowhere, from zero percent to 335 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: take eight percent of that vote in the last primary 336 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: before he dropped out, which is a massive monumental feat. 337 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 2: I mean, he was hanging. 338 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: With Ron DeSantis, the rock star hero of the Republican 339 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: Party through the pandemic. He was hanging with him, and 340 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: he came from nowhere. But it's because he brought this energy, 341 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: and it's the energy of the world's picking up on. 342 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: It's what President the new President of Argentina brought Melya. 343 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: He brought the same energy. It's what bouquetlaid down at 344 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 1: the President of l Savador is bringing. It's what Georgia 345 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: Maloney brought to Italy. Now she's being a little bit newter. 346 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: That's a different story. It's why you've seen the rise 347 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: of Jordan Peterson Andrew Tate. 348 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 2: The world sees this energy. 349 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 1: They want this energy and they want the change, and 350 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: they're bringing it and we can harness that, all right, 351 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: we can harness it. 352 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 2: The world is ready for it. 353 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: The pendulum is swinging back. People are tired of being 354 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: told that they don't matter, that we hate each other 355 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: because of race, or gender or pref friends. 356 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 2: That we're tired of that. 357 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: We're tired of being told that our merits don't matter. 358 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,679 Speaker 1: What matters is our skin color. We're tired of that. 359 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: We're tired of all of these things, and we want 360 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: to change. And anybody that will bring a little bit 361 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: of energy and a little bit of hope can win. 362 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 1: I mean, look what the Biden administration is running on today. 363 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: He's running on a message of hate. 364 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 3: The world is so divided, and the reason why it's 365 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 3: those maga people. All those maga people are the problem. 366 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 3: So you're going to demonize more than half the country, 367 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 3: that's your goal. You see what what what people are 368 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 3: attracted by is vision, a vision of hope, and the 369 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 3: Bible says without without hope, that people perish. We need hope, 370 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 3: we need we need to imagine that the world could 371 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 3: be better. And if somebody gives us that message, that 372 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 3: people will rally behind them. And that's what vivic ramuswam. 373 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: We brought, that's what media brought, Hayley brings, and that's 374 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: how we're going to win. So I want to give 375 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: you the blueprint of exactly how we can do this, 376 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: and we can do it in a shorter amount of 377 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: time and much easier than most people could even Imagine'm 378 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: gonna give. 379 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 2: You a step by step by step here. 380 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 1: If you're just tune in, you're listening to the Markmas Show, 381 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: going down a path I don't typically talk about typically 382 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 1: talk about the intersection of politics, finance, and technology. Today 383 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,479 Speaker 1: we're just talking about politics because, as they're saying, it's 384 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 1: the most important election of our life. But I think 385 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: it should be different for a different reason. So I'm 386 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 1: gonna lay out the blueprint of how we win, and 387 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: I'm putting out a challenge to you. 388 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 2: If you have anything to do. 389 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: Working in politics or want to be, I would like 390 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 1: you to reach out to me and let me know 391 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 1: I'm putting something together. I'll be right back after short break. 392 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: Don't go away, right back, all right, welcome back. If 393 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: you just tune in, you're listening to the Markmas Show. 394 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: We're talking about why politics is a big scam, but 395 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: how we can win. All right, I broke all that 396 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: down for you already. I'm not going to rehash all that. 397 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,959 Speaker 1: Now I'm going to lay out the blueprint. 398 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 2: Of how we do it. 399 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: All right, let me break this down for you. All right, 400 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 1: So we are in potentially in the nine States. We're 401 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: a two party system, all right. We have Republicans the Democrats. 402 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: Now you can say there's an a Party, there's a 403 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: Libertarian party, sure, there's all these other parties, but really 404 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: it's it's a two horse race. Now you might even 405 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: say that we don't even have a two party system. 406 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,239 Speaker 1: It's really just a one party system, which I might 407 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: even agree with you on that, so whatever, okay, but 408 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 1: I want to. 409 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 2: Talk about it. 410 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: But let's just say we have a two party system. 411 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,400 Speaker 1: And if we think about it like this, the Republican 412 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: and the Democrat party they're apparatuses. 413 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 2: So it's an apparatus. 414 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: It's a it's a machine that organizes and raises money 415 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 1: and sort of brings people together to push an agenda. Okay, 416 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: So it's an apparatus. We have two parties that are apparatus. Is. 417 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: Now there's Republicans and Democrats. Right, that's red and blue. 418 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: Let's just call it red and blue. Now, within those 419 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: red and blue teams, there's different ideologies, Okay, so you 420 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 1: could say categorically that Democrats and Republicans think differently. Traditionally, 421 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: Republicans have been more sort of pro business, low taxes, growth, 422 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: or we could say capitalistic maybe, and you would say, 423 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 1: traditionally the Democrats have been more socialistic. They believe in, 424 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 1: you know, helping out lower, lower income people and more 425 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: government assistants and things like that. Now you might even 426 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: say before that Republicans were sort of conservative and so 427 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: they were more restrictive, and then Democrats were more liberal, 428 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: free liberal liberalism, right, so liberalism wanted to be a 429 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: little bit more progressive, so when the conservatives were trying 430 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:36,199 Speaker 1: to restrict the progressor tried to push right. Now, that 431 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: would be true historically if we want to use very 432 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: broad stereotypes. But broad stereotypes don't really help us what. 433 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 2: We could do. 434 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: If we dive down, we can see in each of 435 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: these apparatuses red and blue, there's different ideologies within them. 436 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: So for example, if we look at the Democratic Party, 437 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 1: we can see that it certainly was sort of represented 438 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: by these these free liberal thinkers that wanted to sort 439 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 1: of have this progressive push towards more freedom. I'm free 440 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: to marry who I want love who I want, read 441 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 1: what I want, et cetera. But that has sort of 442 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,439 Speaker 1: been that party has been co opted by the left, 443 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: the left sort of led by like the Squad and 444 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: AOC and them, and they're hard left, the Bernie centers. 445 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: They're socialists, they're communists all right, and they are not 446 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: for more freedom. They are walk the party line or 447 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: will kill you, basically, and they believe that that thoughts 448 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: and words are equal to violence and they have the 449 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: right to respond with violence, which why you see the riots. 450 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 2: And things like that. 451 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 1: So that party has different ideologies within it, and one 452 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: ideology has started to take over and get rid of 453 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 1: the other parties, which why RFK had to leave the 454 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: party and go to an independent party. It's why you 455 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: saw where you're seeing lots of Democrats leave in the party, 456 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: and a lot of big notable ones like Toulsi Gabbard 457 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: as well. It's because the party has been co opted 458 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: by a different ideology and so the Democrats that were 459 00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: there it no longer meets their ideology, they had to leave. 460 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,239 Speaker 1: In the Republican Party, you can also say the same thing. 461 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: There's lots of ideologies within the Republican Party. So in 462 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: the Republican Party. You have certainly what we call rhinos. 463 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: Rhinos are a Republican in name only, meaning you're not 464 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: really a Republican. You call yourself a Republican, but you're 465 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: certainly not. And we can put a lot of people 466 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 1: in there. Most of the people that have been there 467 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: for a really long time are part of that. Certainly, 468 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: Nicki Haley that's running for president, is certainly that she 469 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: should certainly be on the Democratic Party, but for some 470 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: reason she wrote on the Republican side. She's a Republican 471 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: name only. Then you have other ideologies. You have like 472 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: the House Freedom Caucus for example, and they're certainly more 473 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 1: like libertarian right, so they're more like libertarian freedom. And 474 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:38,919 Speaker 1: then you have more of the conservative type people. So 475 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 1: you have different ideologies within the Republican Party as well, 476 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 1: which is why it's almost impossible for me and it 477 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: should be for you as well, to align yourself one 478 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 1: hundred percent with any person or any party. There's certain 479 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: things I like of certain things with RFK Junior. There's 480 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 1: certainly things that I really like about him, but there's 481 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: also some things that I just don't like about him. Right, 482 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: how can you align yourself to anything, especially one party, 483 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 1: because there's all these different ideologies within that. Okay, now 484 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: that we've set that stage, let's talk about how we win. 485 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:08,719 Speaker 2: What this blueprint looks like? 486 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: All right? And again, if you have worked in politics 487 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 1: a name, we're from city council all the way up 488 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 1: to president campaigns, things like that, or you'd like to 489 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 1: let me know, reach out to me. I'm putting something 490 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: together on this blueprint. But here's the blueprint. 491 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 2: Okay. 492 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: So what we need to do is instead of focusing 493 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: on let's go create a new party, let's change the 494 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: Republican Party. Let's get a new president in there. Forget Trump, 495 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: let's get vivic, Let's start a third party. Let's go 496 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,959 Speaker 1: with RFK and we'll get a third party to compete 497 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: against the Red and Blue parties instead of that. Because 498 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: that goal, that goal is too big, it's unattainable. And 499 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: we set goals too big, we don't take action on them, 500 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: and they don't matter anyway. What matters is, again, as 501 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: I said, my local politics, and that's where we can win. 502 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 2: That's where we start. 503 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 1: So what we do, and I want to just shout 504 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: out doctor James Lindsay, I listen to him, lay this 505 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: out and I haven't beenilla stop thinking about it, and 506 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: I'm basically putting it back out there to doctor James Lindsay, 507 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 1: shout out to you. But we can win locally, all 508 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 1: right Now, when you look at a lot of these votes, 509 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 1: you'll see that they come down to one or two 510 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 1: votes or three votes. They're not We're not when I 511 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 1: say we meaning we the people who want more freedom 512 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:23,440 Speaker 1: in our lives. We're not that outgunned. Like the entire 513 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: establishment has not been coopted that much. And all we 514 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: need is one or two people to step in to 515 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: swing the votes over and we can start locally. So 516 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: it starts with my local city council. The chance of 517 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: you or you helping somebody else get onto your city 518 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,399 Speaker 1: council is a million times easier better than try to 519 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: get somebody on the president. Right, So you could run 520 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: for city council, or you could help somebody else run 521 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: for city council. And what you could do is you 522 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: could we should say this is the plan. We're going 523 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,959 Speaker 1: to start locally. We're going to win a couple seats. 524 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: Once we win a couple of seats, we're going to 525 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 1: start making alliances with people that have similar ideologies as us, 526 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 1: and we're going to bring more people. And look, this 527 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: is what the left has done, all right, so we're 528 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 1: just going to do the exact same playbook. But you 529 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: and I people like us need to get involved if 530 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 1: we want to change the world. So we we get 531 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: into city council, we help somebody else get into the city council, 532 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: and they make alliances with one or two other people 533 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: that are there that have similar ideologies, and over period 534 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 1: of time they start to push the other people that 535 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: see things differently out. So if you like free market 536 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 1: principles and free trade and you want to have your 537 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: own money and control your own destiny, then you align 538 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 1: with people like that, and then when you have the 539 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: socialists and communists on on the city council, you work 540 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: to push those people out. Now that's doable. Now, if 541 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 1: I could get my city council, maybe I can help 542 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 1: one or two other people get city councils in my 543 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 1: same county, and then we could go after a county seat. 544 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: And if I can get onto a county seat, let's 545 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 1: say I run on the Republican Party and then I 546 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 1: align with other people on the Republican Party to get 547 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 1: more people like us on the Republican side, and the 548 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: rhinos on the Republican side, we start to push them out. Now, 549 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: if we can announce this in advance and we win 550 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 1: a city that gives people encouragement, that's why you set 551 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: small micro goals. If we could get a city council, 552 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, we did it. Oh my gosh, 553 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 1: look at this. 554 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:15,119 Speaker 2: We have positive progress. 555 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 1: We could do this. And then we get a couple 556 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: more cities. Oh my gosh, we're making progress. Then we 557 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: get a county seat. Oh my goodness, it is happening, 558 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: and it starts to build a movement that people can 559 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: rally behind rather than being like vivicseid and being. 560 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 2: A party of losers. 561 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 1: Now we're starting to win. And now we get a 562 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 1: couple a county seat, we get a couple county seats, 563 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,160 Speaker 1: then we get the next county and the next county. 564 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: Before you know it, we can get seats at the state. 565 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: You see. So we start at the bottom. We get 566 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 1: a couple of cities, then we get a county, Then 567 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,879 Speaker 1: we get a couple counties, then we can get some 568 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 1: seats at the state. Now, if we build that momentum, 569 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 1: and this is going to take a while. This has 570 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 1: not happen overnight, which is another reason why people have 571 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: a problem with it. It's long term thinking. But then 572 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 1: we might be able to affect the governor. This is 573 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 1: the long term plan. 574 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 2: Look it up. 575 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: What they did in Colorado. I think it's called the 576 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: playbook if you google it. I think it's called the 577 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 1: playbook how they turned Colorado. They did the same thing. 578 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: This is their plan. They have it, and you and 579 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 1: I need to organize around this. Then we get a 580 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: couple seats at the state and then we take the governor. Now, 581 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: I want to continue to lay out I'm giving the 582 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 1: high level and then we'll dig into details of this. 583 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 1: If you're just tuning in, you're listening to the Mark 584 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 1: mass Show. Like I said, typically i'm talking about finance, 585 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: politics and technology intersection. Today we're just talking about politics. 586 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 1: I don't typically do this, but it's that important if 587 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: you've worked in politics or want to reach out to me, 588 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: because I want to hear from you and putting together 589 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,239 Speaker 1: a group that we can make some progress here. But 590 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: I want to continue to lay out the high level 591 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: blueprint and then we're going to dig into the specifics 592 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: of how we can make this doable, what it would 593 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: mean if we win, what that looks like, and so 594 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 1: much more. I gotta take a very quick break though. 595 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 1: I'll be right back after a very short Breakdown't go away, 596 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: I'll be right back, all right, Welcome back. If you 597 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: just tune in, you're listening to the Mark Ma Show 598 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: talking about why politics as a scam and how we win. 599 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 2: Now. 600 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: I was laying out the blueprint for how we win. 601 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 1: We instead of focusing on this big goal of a 602 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,199 Speaker 1: new political party like an independent party or chained the 603 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: Republican Party. Instead of that goal that's too big that 604 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: we'll never obtain. Instead we start small. This is just 605 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,919 Speaker 1: goal stetting, one on one again, I said earlier, right, like, 606 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,880 Speaker 1: if my goal I'm going to lose one hundred pounds 607 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: in thirty days, like, this is no way I'm going 608 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:30,679 Speaker 1: to do that, so I'm not going to try. But 609 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 1: if my goal was just to lose five pounds, like 610 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: that's doable. I'll work on that and then if I 611 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: lose five, I can try five the next month and 612 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: five the next month, right, and you can get there. 613 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,959 Speaker 1: So you need these bite sized chunks, these milestones, if 614 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: you will, so you can start doing so So the 615 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: basis of the of the blueprint was one we sort 616 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: of announced what we're doing. We're going to reclaim a party, 617 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,479 Speaker 1: let's say the Republican Party. We're gonna reclaim it. We 618 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: want to get rid of the rhinos, and we want 619 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 1: to bring in more libertarian, free market people into the 620 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: Republican Party. Think about the Republican Party as an apple rap, 621 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: not an ideology. Okay, it's an apparatus that holds many ideologies, 622 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 1: and what you want to do is you want to 623 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: align the ideologies within that apparatus, just like what the 624 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: left has done. So we announce it, we talk about it. 625 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 1: People get excited. We know this. We see what's happening 626 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: with Jordan Peterson, what happened with Vivid Ramaswami. We see 627 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: this movement that's welling up. People want this, and if 628 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: you don't want to go do it, somebody else will 629 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: and you can support that person. So we start on 630 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: the city and when people see that we can actually win, 631 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: then that energy will build. We get a couple of 632 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 1: city seats, we get more cities, We get a couple cities, 633 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: We get a county seat, we get a couple, We 634 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: get a couple county seats, we start getting more counties, 635 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: We get more counties, we take state seats, we take 636 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 1: state seats, we get a governorship. Now, as this starts 637 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: to sweep through, we can start to take back you know, 638 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: then you can get into if you wanted to get 639 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: a look at the judges, the district attorneys, obviously the sheriffs, 640 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: those are very key positions for us as well. We 641 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: can then start to get into the electoral college and 642 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 1: all of that. Now, this is a long term roadmap. 643 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: The left did not co opt the Republican I'm sorry, 644 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: did not go up the Democratic apparatus overnight. It didn't 645 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: happen in a couple of years. It's happened over many, 646 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: many years. It's happened over decades. And so I know 647 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 1: for a lot of people it's hard to imagine because 648 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: it's such a long term plan. But if we can 649 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 1: stick with the game plan, if we can stick with 650 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: the roadmap, if we can stick with understanding what it 651 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: is that we want, what the type of world is 652 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: that you and I want, not just for ourselves because 653 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: it's a long term thing, but what type of world 654 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: do I want from my kids and my grandkids to 655 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: have and honestly, that's where my. 656 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 2: Head is at. 657 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: Like I said, I'm getting older, like I'm starting to 658 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: think about working less, not working more. I like to 659 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: focus on my business where I can have real results, 660 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: not just talking in circles. Going into politics thing. It 661 00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: feels like it would give me brain damage. That's a 662 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: last thing I want to do. I want more time 663 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: off work, I want to travel more, I want to 664 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 1: go hang with my kids. The last thing I want 665 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: is to get brain damage. Trying to deal with this. 666 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: But if we don't, then who does. Thomas Paine, one 667 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 1: of the founding fathers of the United States, said that 668 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: if there must be trouble, let it be in my day, 669 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: so my kids may know peace, you see. And so 670 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: if we don't do this, then what will our kids 671 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: do it? Will our grandkids do it? Ronald Reagan said 672 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 1: that that freedom is never more than one generation. 673 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 2: Away from being lost. 674 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: He said that freedom was not passed to us in 675 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: the bloodline. We didn't just inherit it by being born. Instead, 676 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: he said, it must be fought for by every single generation. 677 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 2: So it's up to us. 678 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: So I don't want to do it, you don't want 679 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: to do it, Maybe collectively. We could work on this together, 680 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: all right. So we start small, we announce the plan, 681 00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 1: We go locally, we get some wins, we use the 682 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 1: momentum and the energy to move up the ladder. We 683 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: get the cities, we get the counties, we get the states, 684 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 1: and then we can go for the big one. We 685 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: don't have to get rid of the Republican or Democratic Party. 686 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: We don't have to start a third apparatus. We can 687 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: just align the apparatus more in line with the will 688 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: of the people, of the majority of the people. I'm 689 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: not talking about subverting democracy. What I'm talking about is 690 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: in a democracy. 691 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 2: It should be the will of the people. 692 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 1: And from what I can see from the rise of 693 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: Vivic and Jordan Peterson and Tate and Trump and all 694 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: of these things, the will of the people seems to 695 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 1: be pretty clear. The will of the people want to 696 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: have more freedom. The will of the people want to 697 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: be left alone. The will of the people don't want 698 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: to see their life savings continue to be eaten away 699 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: by inflation. Inflation that's caused by a runaway government that 700 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: can't stop spending. While they're spending hundreds of billions of 701 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: dollars to go over to Ukraine. They can steal that 702 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: money and line their own pockets. This is not about 703 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: political things. This is about we the people. What does 704 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 1: it take for humans to have more flourishment? What does 705 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: it take for me to be able to direct my 706 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: life as I see fit? Well, I got to get 707 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 1: the government out of the way. 708 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 2: Again. 709 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: I don't know where you live, but I mean in California, 710 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 1: I can't even go to the park and have a 711 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: party for my kid without getting permits. And I can't 712 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 1: even get someone to deliver balloons to the park without 713 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: getting using their approved vendors or else operating the black market. 714 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: I'm technically illegal. In Ein Rand's book Atlas Shrug, they said, 715 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: when you have to get permission to produce from men 716 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 1: who produce nothing, you see, the world is built from 717 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: the bottom up. The world should be built from people 718 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 1: like you and I who understand what. 719 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 2: It is that we want, and we go build that out. 720 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: Now, some of you are being hired to go build 721 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: other people's dreams, but most of us should be building 722 00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 1: the world that we want, directing our life lives as 723 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: we see fit. The world changes by the builders, by 724 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 1: the doers. As Teddy Roosevelt said, by the men in 725 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:12,399 Speaker 1: the arena, not the critics, Not the people that are 726 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: over in Davos right now, the old people that flew 727 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: over there in their private jets and sit around on 728 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: these think tanks, and they're trying to tell the whole 729 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:22,839 Speaker 1: world how they can control everything and run everything. And 730 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: they're eighty years old and they should probably be on 731 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: a beach somewhere in a retirement home. 732 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 2: I don't know. 733 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 1: It's not run by those people. Those people don't live 734 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: in the real world. Those people are not building. What 735 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: they're trying to do is they're trying to hang onto 736 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: any amount of power that they have. By controlling your life, 737 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: by censoring what you say, by controlling the money that 738 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: you have, and even controlling the food. You understand that 739 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:52,439 Speaker 1: the system that they operate is about well. Actually, Murray 740 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,399 Speaker 1: Rothbart wrote a book called The Anatomy of the State, 741 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 1: which I highly recommend. 742 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 2: Anatomy of the. 743 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: State, and he talks about the state. There is no 744 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: such thing as a state, just you and I as individuals. Now, collectively, 745 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: you and I, where are interests aligned? Now we can 746 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 1: create a town or a city or a state, but 747 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 1: it should be working for the collective interests of the people. 748 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: But the people are always greater than the state. There 749 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 1: is no state, but the state is an apparatus that 750 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: gets started. And he talks about in the book that 751 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:24,840 Speaker 1: the purpose of the state is to always constantly grow 752 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: and protect their power. They grow and protect their power 753 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 1: bypassing laws and regulations, regulations that were being told are 754 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:37,879 Speaker 1: there to protect us, but in reality only protect them. 755 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: So think about all these regulations around money. You can't 756 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: launch a security, you can't raise money, you can't invest 757 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 1: in cryptocurrency, you can't transfer more than ten thousand dollars, 758 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Okay, that's to protect you and I 759 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,720 Speaker 1: as a consumer. Well, if we let you just invest 760 00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 1: into anything, you might lose your money in some risky investment. 761 00:35:58,040 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 2: Right. 762 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:00,919 Speaker 1: The reality is always to protect them. 763 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 2: You see. 764 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: They want to keep all money in their system by 765 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 1: their gatekeepers. 766 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 2: Think about this. 767 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: We haven't even thought about this because we haven't been 768 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,800 Speaker 1: around this in so long. But you can't even send 769 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 1: money to somebody without going through a corporation. How are 770 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: you gonna send me money PayPal Okay corporation, Venmo Okay 771 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,840 Speaker 1: corporation on a credit card? Okay corporation. Oh through a 772 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 1: bank zel okay corporation. You can't even send me money. Now, 773 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 1: you can't do anything more than ten thousand dollars without 774 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: breaking the law. It's a regulation because of course, you 775 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 1: know terrorism, So those regulations aren't to protect you, it's 776 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,480 Speaker 1: to protect them. They want your money to be trapped 777 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 1: in the system, so they can rent seek, they can 778 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: take a percentage of each transaction as goes through, and 779 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 1: they can get in the middle and stop that like 780 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:46,919 Speaker 1: a toll booth and block that transaction INtime. 781 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 2: They want AI. 782 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 1: Now they're going to pass regulations to protect you and 783 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: I from AI. The reality is they want to control AI. 784 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: The last thing they want is for you and I 785 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: to have the power like we do with the Internet. 786 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 1: They're kicking themselves for the didn't do that, which they're 787 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 1: trying to wrestle away from us right now through misinformation 788 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,760 Speaker 1: and malinformation. But with AI, they're passing regulation to protect 789 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:10,000 Speaker 1: you and I. The reality is they want it, they 790 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,919 Speaker 1: want to control it. But we can turn the tide 791 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 1: the will of the people if we start from the 792 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: bottom up. 793 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 2: That's my plan. 794 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: I'd love to hear from you. If you have been 795 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 1: in politics, at all from a city up to a 796 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 1: presidential election, or you'd like to be reach out to 797 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 1: me on social media and putting together something I'd love 798 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 1: to hear from you. And that's what I got. You're 799 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: listening to the Mark Mas Show talking about politics. Usually 800 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: it's politics, finance and technology, and. 801 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 2: That's what I got. 802 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 1: Thanks so much for listening to the next time,
