Speaker 1: what the rest of my childhood gonna be. Like, you know,
Speaker 1: and one day you decide, you and your homies decide, like, look, man,
Speaker 1: at some point, we're gonna have to do something about this,
Speaker 1: like you're not gonna chase me home every day. These
Speaker 1: these fools got all the girls. They're coming in school dipping,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like the new Feelers you

Speaker 1: you know he he know how to talk and he
Speaker 1: and you could see him that that that fool just
Speaker 1: fueling he like, and you could tell he's scheming, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like, Man, I'm man, I'm ai
Speaker 1: to all this, like you know, we're gonna do something
Speaker 1: about this. And then he go talk to the homies
Speaker 1: down the street, you know what I mean, And even
Speaker 1: some homies on the other side of the on the
Speaker 1: other side of the tracks, You're looking at them like, hey, man, like,
Speaker 1: ain't you tired of this? Like why we gotta live?
Speaker 1: Like I man, I'm not gonna live like this no more,

Speaker 1: And this real charismatic friend of yours, you could tell
Speaker 1: he don't look scared like the rest of us. He
Speaker 1: paying attention and then watching, and he's watching for the
Speaker 1: things that I told you all you're supposed to watch for.
Speaker 1: In the same way, when you're about to get jumped,
Speaker 1: you need to look at who's really in charge, who
Speaker 1: really could take a punch, who can't take a punch, right,
Speaker 1: Because if you're about to get jumped, like I said,
Speaker 1: you're probably gonna get mopped. But the one thing you
Speaker 1: can't do is nothing. And what you need to do
Speaker 1: is you need to fire are on one of them
Speaker 1: and get out of there. But what you need to
Speaker 1: pick is is sometimes it's the loudest dude right. But
Speaker 1: what you need to do is you need to pay
Speaker 1: attention to who really in charge. A lot of times
Speaker 1: it's the man standing on side of the street that's
Speaker 1: not in that circle with you. That's the one standing
Speaker 1: that's the one in charge. But you need to pick
Speaker 1: one of the biggest dudes, one of the one of
Speaker 1: the ones that you like. Okay that and if you
Speaker 1: fire on him hard enough on her, Let's be real,
Speaker 1: you fire on her hard enough. You gotta pick one
Speaker 1: that's gonna make the other ones question because if you
Speaker 1: show you not scared and you pop the one that
Speaker 1: they all think is the best fighter, the rest of
Speaker 1: them gonna think twice. And that's gonna give you that
Speaker 1: split second to get out of there. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But he's watching, and when he watching, he
Speaker 1: watching close. And then he started noticing. You know what,
Speaker 1: they don't all get along. That man crew, that crew
Speaker 1: that's up, they don't all get along. One of them
Speaker 1: don't like them, they're other niggas. And then you start
Speaker 1: noticing as as you're watching, like you watching, paying more atention,
Speaker 1: you start noticing, and you know what, a lot of
Speaker 1: them niggas can't fight, you know this party is ain't
Speaker 1: what they say they are. You know, you we're pulling
Speaker 1: up to these parties. We were thinking, Man, they're bawling,
Speaker 1: they got everything up. You know, they got money, they're
Speaker 1: getting money, they're getting the girls. You start noticing, you
Speaker 1: know what, some of this don't. So I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't think this is what they say it is. It
Speaker 1: might have been. You know, maybe you got an older brother,
Speaker 1: you got an older sister, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like me, for me, I my sister was six years
Speaker 1: older than me. So like maybe maybe they was hot
Speaker 1: when she was my age, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But I'm looking you, you the little brothers, you're their
Speaker 1: little sisters, and like y'all not okay. You know, I'm
Speaker 1: starting to see cracks in the armor here. Maybe it's not.
Speaker 1: Maybe it's not what y'all say it is. So you
Speaker 1: pick the right day, and you know, any giving Sunday,
Speaker 1: any day, anybody can get it. It's anybody's game. You
Speaker 1: pick the right party where the right people are there,
Speaker 1: and you and your crew roll up and you decide, listen,
Speaker 1: it's some new bosses in town. We're done with this.
Speaker 1: And you know you aren't even invited to this party
Speaker 1: because you're not cool enough. But you know what, you
Speaker 1: don't get to decide who's cool and who's not. You
Speaker 1: crashed that party, mocked them fools just that day, that day,

Speaker 1: and now, and then everybody saw a whole hood. Was

Speaker 1: if that's the case, somebody say I don't need my money. Like, look, look,
Speaker 1: let me get real hood on you. You know your
Speaker 1: mama used to write a check and then say, hey, listen,
Speaker 1: don't don't don't cash that till tuesday. Yourself said why
Speaker 1: because the money ain't in the account? You cash it
Speaker 1: right now? That mug gonna bounce you, feel me. Or
Speaker 1: they start putting the electric billing their kids names. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Kids grow up because the electric
Speaker 1: building turned off? Uh by your name? So now like
Speaker 1: niggas grow up there sixten years old with bad credit
Speaker 1: because the light bill been in their name three times.
Speaker 1: You ain't got it. Let me give you something a
Speaker 1: little more modern, you know what I'm saying. Like you

Speaker 1: you ain't got money in that account. That's swipe are
Speaker 1: not real That ain't real money in there. That's why.
Speaker 1: Is only as good as the bank say it is.
Speaker 1: And sometimes the bank will be like, just like to connect, yeah,
Speaker 1: off front you that it's gonna cost you though it
Speaker 1: cost you an overdraft fees, it costs you in compound interest.
Speaker 1: That's how I mean, that's how credit work, right, Like
Speaker 1: you swipe that card, it's like, yeah, I got you,
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna need it later. So what do most
Speaker 1: people do when they get in trouble with credit? They
Speaker 1: borrowed from somebody else to pay the first person back,
Speaker 1: and then that other person they borrowed from, they borrowed
Speaker 1: somebody else, pay the other person back. At some point
Speaker 1: they're gonna need their money. Somebody in your crew ain't
Speaker 1: liking what you do. They start noticing, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, hey, it's getting a little y'all. Y'all,
Speaker 1: y'all little sloppy. I don't like how you running this.
Speaker 1: It's a little you know what I'm saying. Like a
Speaker 1: matter of fact, man, it seemed like it seemed like
Speaker 1: the only people getting money is is y'all. Old niggas
Speaker 1: were out in the field. These young dudes is out
Speaker 1: in the field. We don't want to dodge your bullets.
Speaker 1: We don't want out here recruiting these We don't want
Speaker 1: to breaking into cars. We don't want is getting misdemeanor charges.
Speaker 1: Weren't one doing five years? We don't want We're the
Speaker 1: ones on probation, were the ones on house arrest. You
Speaker 1: niggas are sitting nice out in at the hills, just
Speaker 1: collecting checks from us. They said, ain't gonna work no more.
Speaker 1: And guess what some other little niggas is watching. They
Speaker 1: watching this happen. Y'all got this wealth gap inside of
Speaker 1: your own crew. And there's somebody who y'all been bullying,
Speaker 1: Who y'all been running up on, Who y'all been hitting
Speaker 1: licks on, who's about tired of y'all? And the psycho continues,
Speaker 1: empires come and go, y'all, how much of dollar cost
Speaker 1: hood politics. All right, so welcome to another how much
Speaker 1: a Dillar cost episode, which is essentially just economics. Today,
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk macro economics. Y'all know. I have an
Speaker 1: education back, I said, all the time, uh, specifically in
Speaker 1: history and social sciences. And I loved thinking a lot
Speaker 1: of ways like ancient history for a number of reasons.
Speaker 1: One I just thought the stuff was cooler, or like
Speaker 1: the fact that it was just less familiar. But there's
Speaker 1: one thing that every historian, anybody that studies history, politics, economics,
Speaker 1: whatever it is, in a macro sense, understands. Nobody stays
Speaker 1: up no one, I said, once history got bars in
Speaker 1: a wrap. You know what I mean, is like it'd
Speaker 1: be Rhyman. It's not the same. Of course, there's differences,
Speaker 1: but things take on particular patterns, and when you're looking
Speaker 1: at stuff from a macro sense, from a whole history perspective,
Speaker 1: you can essentially start graphing things that buying large kind
Speaker 1: of fit this pattern. A lot of times, that's what
Speaker 1: history and economics are doing. They just look at the patterns.
Speaker 1: It doesn't mean that it's always gonna go this way,
Speaker 1: but it means that you can it's a safe bet.
Speaker 1: And here's what I know about empires. They come and go,
Speaker 1: they got about. I know I've said this before, and
Speaker 1: please please please go pull my receipts. Empires run about
Speaker 1: two hundred, two hundred fifty years. They crash, Empires fall.
Speaker 1: And if you think America ain't an empire, you're tripping.
Speaker 1: And if you think we can't fall, you don't believe that.
Speaker 1: The propaganda pun intended. If you think you if you
Speaker 1: think America ain't gonna collapse, you believe a cat, because
Speaker 1: that is all cat. They all fall. Every empire falls
Speaker 1: an I'm telling you maybe I should change his name. First,
Speaker 1: I was calling this episode there ain't nothing changed but
Speaker 1: the weather. But I think the idea of it all
Speaker 1: falls down. It might be better. Yeah, it continues like
Speaker 1: they all do it. And if you are willing to
Speaker 1: like really look at it and understand sort of indicators.
Speaker 1: And that's what a lot of like economists doing. They're
Speaker 1: looking for indicators. They're not saying this is what always
Speaker 1: gonna be in a lot. Again, they all don't agree.
Speaker 1: We said that in the first how much of Dollar
Speaker 1: Cost episode? Everybody don't agree. But these indicators are just
Speaker 1: that they're like indicators symptoms. You know, person's uh heart
Speaker 1: rate is way too high when they're resting, that's an
Speaker 1: indicator that this person might not be in shape or
Speaker 1: something something not right. You know what I'm saying. Person's
Speaker 1: uh left hand be tingling. That's an indicator or something.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Somebody, you know they digestion
Speaker 1: be weird. That's an indicator or something. You know, I
Speaker 1: can't predict that. That means you're gonna die in six months,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But there are things that
Speaker 1: would make us say that, like yo, unless you make
Speaker 1: some changes, that's been a crash quicker. Now, whoever up
Speaker 1: always comes down, And the question ain't will you come down?
Speaker 1: The question is how fast and how long you're gonna
Speaker 1: stay up. All you can do is postpone it. So
Speaker 1: today I'm gonna give y'all some some some macro economics.
Speaker 1: Ray uh Daily, Oh. I don't even know if I'm
Speaker 1: saying his name right, but he has he's a He's
Speaker 1: an economist, a brilliant, brilliant dude. He has a book
Speaker 1: out called Principles of Dealing with the Changing World Order.
Speaker 1: A dope like there's actually like even a short like
Speaker 1: maybe like a forty five minute like animated YouTube video
Speaker 1: breakdown of what he's talking about in the in the book.
Speaker 1: But I wanted to bring it to y'all, you know,
Speaker 1: in my voice, because he gave actual numbers to this stuff.
Speaker 1: I was trying to tell y'all, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: When I'm like, yo, it's like read the tea leaves
Speaker 1: because like every historian is I said before, it's flaring
Speaker 1: their arms around, going guys, yo, this is These are
Speaker 1: the things. These are the indicators. We're here. We've fin
Speaker 1: a crash and burn. Now, Like I said before, this life,
Speaker 1: there's such thing as There is such thing as the Dutch,
Speaker 1: there is such thing as Britain in the UK. They
Speaker 1: used to be up. They're not up no more. There's
Speaker 1: such things as Russia. They used to be up. They're
Speaker 1: not up no more. They're fighting to get back up
Speaker 1: right now. But like goes on after an empire crashes,
Speaker 1: there are such things as the Greeks, Joe said, But
Speaker 1: you need to pay attention to what's happening it now.
Speaker 1: Why when you're experiencing these living through these like empires
Speaker 1: rising and falling, you feel like you special, just like
Speaker 1: when you in the hood. Remember I said like, oh,
Speaker 1: we're gonna do things different. It feels like the things
Speaker 1: that are happening are so new and exciting or so
Speaker 1: terrifying and shocking. Is because it just ain't happened in
Speaker 1: your lifetime. I don't know, do you? How many of
Speaker 1: y'all was alive during the Great Depression? You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. I don't know how many who listen to
Speaker 1: this remembers World War One? You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like if we don't, none of us was here for
Speaker 1: the Revolutionary War, none of us was here for the
Speaker 1: Civil War. That stuff seemed it's so ancient, and you
Speaker 1: just think, no, it's different. It is, but it be rhyman.
Speaker 1: So today I want to talk about a few indicators
Speaker 1: that this book kind of lays out to help you
Speaker 1: get your brain around what I mean by this. So
Speaker 1: this is again, this is some this is some game.
Speaker 1: That's some economic stuff. Uh we I still want you
Speaker 1: to understand why everybody bugging out about stock markets, inflation,
Speaker 1: all this stuff that to me for most of my
Speaker 1: life just flew over my head. All rightlet's take a break,
Speaker 1: bring the track in. Okay, dope, now we're back check it.
Speaker 1: So according to the content that I'm giving y'all from,
Speaker 1: like I said, uh Ray dal Leo, changing in the
Speaker 1: world order. First of all, let me lay out what
Speaker 1: I mean by the world order. Who we mean is
Speaker 1: like empires who on top. Now I'm saying this from
Speaker 1: a black perspective, which means that like most of the time,
Speaker 1: anybody can anybody counting on Africa right now, because that's
Speaker 1: how y'all do you say white supremacy abound. We're not
Speaker 1: talking Ghana Molly's song Hi. We're not talking Egyptian, Ethiopian, Dogans,
Speaker 1: We're not talking any of those empires for this particular talk.
Speaker 1: But I would bet that they run. If people are people,
Speaker 1: they probably run on a similar story arc. But that's
Speaker 1: not what we're talking about right now. We're gonna go
Speaker 1: back and talk like the last like five hundred years.
Speaker 1: The way we can understand that has to do with
Speaker 1: the concept of capitalism as we know it, where commodities,
Speaker 1: the dollar, whatever dollar, whatever version of your nation or
Speaker 1: your empire's dollar, is the way y'all was getting money,
Speaker 1: How y'all maintain money, and how y'all maintain power, and
Speaker 1: then how that power started waning and falling, and then
Speaker 1: how the next naked got up. So world order basically
Speaker 1: means which empire is up. We've been calling ourselves in
Speaker 1: America superpower. Now that's really just because we just own now.
Speaker 1: And that's the point we're trying to make here. And
Speaker 1: as you know, we wasn't always on and we ain't
Speaker 1: gonna always be on, which is what we're talking about.
Speaker 1: You know how we know because at one point the
Speaker 1: Dutch was on? Who knocked the Dutch off the bridge?
Speaker 1: This who knocked the British off? Us? Who gonna knock
Speaker 1: us off? Some people think China, I don't know. Let's
Speaker 1: get to it though. Now what constitutes being up? A
Speaker 1: lot of it has to do with again, we use
Speaker 1: that economic theory, you know what I'm saying. It has
Speaker 1: to do with your Your currency? Is this the currency
Speaker 1: everybody mess with it? Does your is your currency dominant
Speaker 1: over everybody else's currency? Is your weight weightier than everybody
Speaker 1: else's weight? And do you got the muscle? Do you
Speaker 1: got the goons to make sure that that's what happening?
Speaker 1: Don't nobody run through this city unless they run through us.
Speaker 1: You gotta tap in with us. No matter what you're
Speaker 1: doing across the world. You gotta tap in with us.
Speaker 1: No matter what you're doing across the hood, you gotta
Speaker 1: tap in with us. You ain't co signed with us,
Speaker 1: if we ain't stamped you, it don't matter. Now, this current,
Speaker 1: this current order, we end. Like I said, who up,
Speaker 1: America became top of the food chain everybody gotta tap
Speaker 1: into after World War Two for a number of reasons.
Speaker 1: One because Britain was broke. Who were up at that time?
Speaker 1: Y'all remember that little island colonized everywhere they was up.
Speaker 1: They pound, the pound ruled everything. Eventually it took us
Speaker 1: that long. But at the end of World War two,
Speaker 1: after they was broke, we showed that we got our squabbles,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And then at Britain Woods Agreement,
Speaker 1: they agreed that like listen, man, currency gotta look. If
Speaker 1: you're gonna use currency, let's just use ours. Ours got
Speaker 1: the tallest. So then we got to control the central
Speaker 1: bank of the world, which we still control now. It's
Speaker 1: called the reserve currency. It's the currency that's pretty much
Speaker 1: accepted everywhere wherever you go. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: that somebody gonna take your dallar mostly, but it wasn't
Speaker 1: always like that. So according to this book, there's this
Speaker 1: thing that that ray is calling, calling ray like you hum,
Speaker 1: he calling a big cycle. And the big cycle is
Speaker 1: again a rough estimate as to this two hundred to
Speaker 1: two h fifty year life cycle of an empire. You
Speaker 1: could latest on the Dutch, Um, the British, and ourselves
Speaker 1: and probably who coming next. Now that story I told
Speaker 1: you in the beginning of it, in the beginning of
Speaker 1: this p cast about that hood getting up, it's that
Speaker 1: it's the same cycle. What starts off is you know,
Speaker 1: you got these you got this this rough upstart of
Speaker 1: a country, a civilization, you know, a real charismatic leader,
Speaker 1: Ali George Washington, you know what I'm saying, in the
Speaker 1: founding fathers who realized that like listen, man, we're not
Speaker 1: taking all this ship from from from the British no more.
Speaker 1: We tied all this. We want our own. And then
Speaker 1: you start scrapping and then you establish your own place,
Speaker 1: like look, this is who we are. That's the establishment.
Speaker 1: The next step is a part of what we would
Speaker 1: call the peace and prosperity era, and then the next
Speaker 1: is like you know, then you start producing a lot
Speaker 1: of stuff and uh. And when you start producing, you
Speaker 1: start borrowing too much money. You start borrowing too much money,
Speaker 1: you start creating a big old wealth gap. Right. Once
Speaker 1: you create a big old wealth grap you gotta really
Speaker 1: you realize it, like, y'all, I'm spending more money than
Speaker 1: I have, So that means I gotta start printing money.
Speaker 1: And once you start printing money, you know what I'm saying, Now,
Speaker 1: the cost of stuff go up and the wealth gap
Speaker 1: starts growing. And when there's a wealth gap, then the
Speaker 1: natives get restless, my nigked. And at some point you're
Speaker 1: gonna have to pay them debts back. And when them
Speaker 1: debtors come for their money, then you have what's called
Speaker 1: an economic downturn. And the way to fix and pay
Speaker 1: them debts is you gotta pretend like you got the money. Oh,
Speaker 1: I got it. I'm just gonna keep sweep, keep swiping
Speaker 1: my car. I pay this food to pay that food.
Speaker 1: I'll borrow from there to borrow from there, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But the only way to protect your
Speaker 1: money in the hard time, you gotta start building up.
Speaker 1: You got you need some goons. You need some goons
Speaker 1: to build up and protect everybody because while you up,
Speaker 1: you know, when you're on top of the hill, everybody
Speaker 1: coming for you. So you gotta make sure you got
Speaker 1: this big problem. You're spending most of your money on
Speaker 1: your defense and on your luxuries. And then they become
Speaker 1: this political in fighting, and usually what happens is somebody
Speaker 1: leads towards a populace or a totalitarian ruler that can like, look,
Speaker 1: I'll calm everybody down, I get this stuff together. But
Speaker 1: everybody outside, who you've been stepping on for this whole time,
Speaker 1: is watching, y'all. And while we're going through all these
Speaker 1: in house debates, we can't get our ship together. The
Speaker 1: enemy watching and they're getting strong and they're about to
Speaker 1: start the same cycle that we own. You got it. Now,
Speaker 1: let's put the pieces on the puzzle. How do you
Speaker 1: measure how up a nation is? How you measure how
Speaker 1: upper empire is? Well? According to this these here go
Speaker 1: your markers for it. Your your education, are y'all y'all
Speaker 1: schooling the young ins? Are you innovating? Are y'all building
Speaker 1: dope ship and that type stuff? Creates good myths, good buyings,
Speaker 1: good feelings of belonging. Are y'all competitive in the market?
Speaker 1: Can anybody mess with your stuff? You got the best
Speaker 1: product or not? Are y'all out putting it like y'all
Speaker 1: putting it in the streets. It's getting everywhere you feel
Speaker 1: me your role in world trade, the strength of your
Speaker 1: currency as far as like world trade? Is your dollar
Speaker 1: worth more than everybody else's dollar? And how well y'all shoot,
Speaker 1: how strong you're military? Now, if you can average out
Speaker 1: these numbers, you could tell who really up and who
Speaker 1: not according to this thing again? And yo, and since
Speaker 1: these are measurable numbers, like you can you can look
Speaker 1: this stuff up, then you could tell if an empire
Speaker 1: rise in the falling, you could tell where they are
Speaker 1: in this thing? You tell how long you're gonna be up.
Speaker 1: Of course, it's not like it's not a it's not
Speaker 1: a deloy in my nigga, Like you can't really tell
Speaker 1: the future, but you can measure these things like yo,
Speaker 1: Is I mean, are y'all strong? Is your work really
Speaker 1: that dope? Is people really buying your product? Are y'all
Speaker 1: really educating your are y'all really innovating? I mean you were,
Speaker 1: are you still and hopefully you can see how that
Speaker 1: stuff is interconnected. Better education. You schooling the kids means
Speaker 1: you're probably gonna innovate a lot of stuff. And if
Speaker 1: you innovating a lot of stuff, that means you're creating
Speaker 1: the best product. If you're creating the best product, you're
Speaker 1: gonna make the most money. That I mean, dug. So
Speaker 1: let's go back to the beginning and establishing of a
Speaker 1: new empire, new up, a new world order usually starts
Speaker 1: with some sort of big cataclysmic war conflict. If we're
Speaker 1: gonna use America, then let's do that. Uh, America started
Speaker 1: actually as a ward duh. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: That's where we started our incline. We started at a
Speaker 1: war and Nigga we won and we wasn't puposed to
Speaker 1: win because y'all do you got I don't think y'all
Speaker 1: understand how big balling, big Boss Great Britain was. I mean,
Speaker 1: like that little teeny Island almost conquered the planet. And
Speaker 1: it's because if you know your history, Niggada Navy didn't
Speaker 1: play like they listen, they had wealth coming in everywhere
Speaker 1: you're talking about, you talking about Mongolian silk with Indian
Speaker 1: spices and sugar from sugar from Haiti. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying in the t that they got from Persia,
Speaker 1: niggd like everywhere. We wasn't supposed to win. I'm saying
Speaker 1: we because I'm American, Because no, nigga, that wasn't meet
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I wouldn't. That wasn't my
Speaker 1: fight because you know what I'm saying because I'm Black.
Speaker 1: But you understand I'm trying to say America wasn'tupposed to win.
Speaker 1: That you ain't supposed to take them out. Go again,
Speaker 1: going back to our first example, you litt nigga ain't
Speaker 1: supposed to win this, but you did. Now since you
Speaker 1: one and everybody saw it, people are like, like we
Speaker 1: said in beginning, oh man, maybe maybe there's a new ball.
Speaker 1: Maybe everything cool and don't nobody want to mess with you.
Speaker 1: Remember I told you before again, it's just like when
Speaker 1: you jumping somebody, you gotta molly whop them when you
Speaker 1: get you. When you're getting me, you gotta molly wap
Speaker 1: these foods so they know don't come back again. But
Speaker 1: we this was the theory we talked about a long
Speaker 1: time ago with dropping uh, these atom bombs on Hiroshiama Nagasaki.
Speaker 1: It was like, this is the wrong thing to do
Speaker 1: if you have any sort of moral compass. But if
Speaker 1: you just talking war, what you're trying to say is like, listen,
Speaker 1: we're crazy. Don't don't listen. Try Jesus not me. I
Speaker 1: throw hands. I'm crazy. Do not come over here. It's terrifying.
Speaker 1: You're like, damn, it's crazy. I ain't gonna mess with them,
Speaker 1: no mo. So that's what happens as a nation. It's like, okay, cool,
Speaker 1: So there's a relative moment of peace and prosperity. What
Speaker 1: was happening in America, nigga, We was building cities. I mean,
Speaker 1: we was getting free labor from slaves. And you gotta
Speaker 1: understand how much money Listen, I don't think y'all. Look,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna set aside the actual human atrocities that slavery
Speaker 1: was for a second. I'm just gonna talk money with you. Uh.
Speaker 1: Innovation was happening up north right with industrial growth. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Technology all that ship was happening
Speaker 1: up north. Down south they were called a grarian where
Speaker 1: it was like this is agriculture, like they growing cotton,
Speaker 1: tobacco sometimes, but mostly cotton. Let me tell you something,
Speaker 1: do you understand that what cottons was worth, the gross
Speaker 1: national how much money they was making on cotton was
Speaker 1: more than every other commodity in the States combined. There's
Speaker 1: so much money coming from cotton now, which meant that
Speaker 1: if you was Joe Blow slave owner, you was like, well,
Speaker 1: I know this sucks, but god damn, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of money. And I mean, what we're gonna do because
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean damn, Like I'm just one person.
Speaker 1: I know it's I know it's awful. I mean, but like,
Speaker 1: I mean, shoot, this is just the way of the world.
Speaker 1: Slavery existed forever. And besides, then you start turning your
Speaker 1: brain into a pretzel because of how much money is
Speaker 1: being made. You like know what, Well, maybe they built
Speaker 1: for that because they show don't die, I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: and if we ever let them free, Look, they try
Speaker 1: to kill us. They savages, So maybe we should just
Speaker 1: go on on and keep them. That's the because the
Speaker 1: money too much. And if you already think these people
Speaker 1: ain't humans, you ain't gotta listen. That's a hundred percent profit.
Speaker 1: You ain't paying your wages give or take the cost
Speaker 1: of the slave themselves. But eventually, which never happened before,
Speaker 1: once the slaves have kids, the kids are slaves. It
Speaker 1: wasn't like that nowhere else. So you you multiplying and
Speaker 1: you ain't gotta buy new one. Not to mention, you know,
Speaker 1: we talked. I make the comment about the gold Rush,
Speaker 1: who really made most of the money where the shovel sales. Listen,
Speaker 1: you're selling slaves, nigga. You bawling out too. It's too
Speaker 1: much money. So this prosperity happened in and again again
Speaker 1: we're talking nation building here, nigga. It's so much money
Speaker 1: coming in. We bought and it's so comfy. Don't nobody
Speaker 1: want to mess with us? We didn't. It was the
Speaker 1: seven year war. We didn't fought off the natives, didn't
Speaker 1: fought off. We didn't fought off the British like nign
Speaker 1: start getting comfortable. And of course this is not like
Speaker 1: a straight line because there was other hals and countries
Speaker 1: like now. I don't think that's the way to go,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But as things, you know,
Speaker 1: we're still you still upstart, you're still figuring out, but
Speaker 1: you like you're bailing out, like Nick's gonna start taking
Speaker 1: you serious. By the time we get to World War
Speaker 1: one and World War two, we building shipped out the brain.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. The Big five that built
Speaker 1: the country. You know, the Carnegie you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: the gerald Fords. You know what I'm saying, this industrial revolution.
Speaker 1: We killing the game. It's too much money and so
Speaker 1: foods getting comfy. Once you start getting comfort, you gotta
Speaker 1: protect that comfortable. But also it's all you know at
Speaker 1: this point, it's kids that don't want you. A few
Speaker 1: generations after the Revolutionary War, there's people that don't know war.
Speaker 1: They weren't there for that. They was born into relative prosperity.
Speaker 1: There was this phrase that you learned. I learned from
Speaker 1: Dan Carlin. He was like, um, the stone boots and
Speaker 1: silk slippers. You got the toughest nails. People that fought
Speaker 1: for something. This why I was talking about the earlier
Speaker 1: earlier fought for something to get us up. And then
Speaker 1: you have kids and all them kids know it's success.
Speaker 1: They don't know struggle. They gotta go through what you
Speaker 1: go through. All they know is prosperity. So they think
Speaker 1: you crazy for always being nervous because it ain't happen
Speaker 1: in their lifetime, and if it do go down, they
Speaker 1: think the world on't fire, which is like current America
Speaker 1: right now. They got time to contemplate the start, They
Speaker 1: got time to envision better ways to do things. They
Speaker 1: got time to think about things like morality, you know,
Speaker 1: and if we should keep enslaving these people, they got
Speaker 1: time to do. Basically the nineties, if he was white
Speaker 1: and wealthy, just buy ship. That's all they did in
Speaker 1: the nineties. Again, this is for the sake of this argument.
Speaker 1: Think about it. Y'll like that Americana like the invention
Speaker 1: of a strip mall, a suburb track housing. That's because
Speaker 1: they like, we find and they get everything good. You know,
Speaker 1: you remember black when you see the white people on
Speaker 1: TV and the milk man would come and they would
Speaker 1: just they were that's clean, green energy. Do you have
Speaker 1: glass bottles that you were cycled? Nigga America had to
Speaker 1: be taught to throw ship away because we used to
Speaker 1: not throw stuff away. You that's there's too much money, yo.
Speaker 1: Niggas is comfy now. If you know the money coming in,
Speaker 1: you're not worried about it. You can start borrowing. You
Speaker 1: can gonna get the credit card. I know what I'm
Speaker 1: making year, I know we got We're good. It's fine.
Speaker 1: The crops always grow. We're gonna make the money. It's like,
Speaker 1: so you can start buying more and buying more on
Speaker 1: credit because you know what you're gonna do. You know, look,
Speaker 1: we flushed, flushed, but lush with cash. It's all good.
Speaker 1: What you're so worried about. It'll be fine. Swipe that card.
Speaker 1: We're cool as an individual and as a nation. You
Speaker 1: know we're good. Then you start diversifying, right, so rather
Speaker 1: than just buying a card, buy a house. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You buy some stocks. You feel me,
Speaker 1: you get it. You know what I'm saying. Get some
Speaker 1: gold bars, put them away. You ain't just gonna be
Speaker 1: flushed with cash, and you can like put your stuff
Speaker 1: in some other stuff. You feel me. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like bill out, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Like put your money in a lot of different places.
Speaker 1: And all I gotta do is put on credit because
Speaker 1: it's cool. I'm gonna pay it back. Money coming in, right,
Speaker 1: Scared money don't make money, so you're putting your money
Speaker 1: in these places. And what's happening is the wealth gap
Speaker 1: is growing because the people that's producing that money, the
Speaker 1: people that's doing the actual work, they're not getting none
Speaker 1: of the none of rewards of what's coming from this wealth.
Speaker 1: While they steady being told, well, it's the American dream.
Speaker 1: You could just work hard and you two can have
Speaker 1: this wealth. Well, the land of the free, land of opportunity,
Speaker 1: and every man who's willing to work hard can succeed. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: Jim Crow abounds. So you creating this wealth gap right,
Speaker 1: Just like I said earlier. You know, we're out here,
Speaker 1: We're out here on the corners. We out here, y'all
Speaker 1: living in these nice houses up out in the valley.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Like we're out here on
Speaker 1: the corner. We don't want to catching cases, and you're
Speaker 1: telling us we're better not snitched, because our life is
Speaker 1: only good because you're giving us the little bit we got.
Speaker 1: You're telling me, I'm I'm better off because of you.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Let me just you know,
Speaker 1: if I do go, do Julie, I do go five years.
Speaker 1: If I keep my mouth shut food, that's like a vacation.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, like, well, make sure money
Speaker 1: on your books. Everything cool. Meanwhile, you collecting dough this
Speaker 1: whole time, you're getting richer and richer, creating a wealth gap.
Speaker 1: You know these ogs, man, they just know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: They're not even out here in the field. We're out
Speaker 1: in the field. Oh gee, like you just hate me
Speaker 1: because you hate me. Little niggas is saying something different.
Speaker 1: This ain't gonna keep but I'm not gonna keep standing
Speaker 1: for this. But look at eventually all that money you're spending,
Speaker 1: all that stuff you're borrowing. Uh, you got you keep
Speaker 1: increasing that credit limit, that blackguard. Eventually you're gonna have
Speaker 1: to pay that ship back. Because again, money has to
Speaker 1: be something in real life unless it's just paper. Remember
Speaker 1: I told on the last one, on the last how
Speaker 1: much of dollar costs. Money is not real no more,
Speaker 1: it's just whatever we say it is. Wasn't always like
Speaker 1: that money was a thing. It was gold. You take
Speaker 1: that dollar and I'm just making up this number, and
Speaker 1: this dollar means I can get this much gold because
Speaker 1: it was real thing. And instead of buying just the
Speaker 1: gold bar, I'm gonna buy a product. And I know
Speaker 1: this product is worth these many goal bars, and rather
Speaker 1: than me handing these goal bar and hand you this
Speaker 1: because gold is a finite thing. We know what it is,
Speaker 1: and it sits in a reserve. But eventually you borrowing more,
Speaker 1: you spending more then there is gold? Are we good?
Speaker 1: Were good? You spending more than we guys? So I said,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. You putting bricks on credit.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. You You feel me? You
Speaker 1: promising ship you can't deliver. We ain't got it. Look look,
Speaker 1: look look again. You out with your homies. You're swiping
Speaker 1: your car, knowing full well you're gonna overdraft that. But
Speaker 1: you're good. The bank or just charge you the thirty
Speaker 1: five dollars. You'll just pay the thirty five dollars. You
Speaker 1: keep swiping at that thirty five becomes seventy. You understand
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, and it just keep adding up. You
Speaker 1: mess around. Check your bank account. Your last seven transactions
Speaker 1: were now declined. You now overdraft elevens. Here is like you,
Speaker 1: what what you're gonna do? You ain't got it? What
Speaker 1: nations do keep swiping? How do they keep swiping? What
Speaker 1: we print? The money? Remember it's ours you just print more.
Speaker 1: And what happens when you print more than what you
Speaker 1: actually got is it starts to become just paper again.
Speaker 1: That's called inflation. It's more money in circulation. Then we
Speaker 1: can actually back you just writing checks. You just pipe
Speaker 1: in your card. It ain't real money there. And at
Speaker 1: some point the nation like y'all, we've been a default
Speaker 1: on our loans. Because so that's what we're gonna do.
Speaker 1: We're gonna do this stimulus package. That's a nice way
Speaker 1: to say, is we're just gonna make up money. But
Speaker 1: before they get to the makeup money. Look, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: blow your mind right now. You know what foods do?
Speaker 1: They lower the interest rates? Oh man, oh hey, interests
Speaker 1: are on a law time low. Everybody go by their
Speaker 1: houses or that's because they like, damn, these niggas not
Speaker 1: paying their debt. We don't loan are their money. They're
Speaker 1: not paying us. Okay, uh, well maybe if we lower
Speaker 1: the interests, niggas will start paying because we're not getting
Speaker 1: their money. You can lower the interest rates to zero, nigger,
Speaker 1: because that happened. If I ain't got the money, I
Speaker 1: ain't got the money. You know what you do now?
Speaker 1: You just print the money, but the money don't mean
Speaker 1: nothing because we just printed it. And that, my friend,
Speaker 1: is inflation. It's because the dollar don't do ship for
Speaker 1: you because they just printed it. So you know what
Speaker 1: the wealthy dude, when you just make up money, they know, Oh,
Speaker 1: the price of everything is gonna go up. And I
Speaker 1: got the bread, but the price of real ship gonna
Speaker 1: go up. You know i'mnna doing. I'm about a stock,
Speaker 1: I'm a body's bonds. I'm a buy this commodity. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna buy this goal. I'm gonna buy it right now
Speaker 1: because I know that's real. This doll ain't gonna be
Speaker 1: worth nothing. So let me get the dollars out of
Speaker 1: my hands because they're not worth nothing. And I'm gonna
Speaker 1: get the actual ship into my hands because that's worth something.
Speaker 1: The rich get richard and eventually, once this start happened,
Speaker 1: and guess what, the natives get restless, not a hood mad,
Speaker 1: not a set mad, because what is we gonna do?
Speaker 1: You don't snatched up now? I can't afford nothing. Remember
Speaker 1: I talked about the ice cream truck. My five dollars
Speaker 1: don't get me the same amount of ice cream and
Speaker 1: get me before all right, we'll pay me more. They're like, oh,
Speaker 1: we ain't got it. We can't pay you more. What
Speaker 1: the funk mean you ain't got it? Now, think of
Speaker 1: this as a nation we're telling. We're telling China, you're
Speaker 1: telling Russia. You're telling all these not Russia. Well yeah,
Speaker 1: Russia sometimes telling Russia. Yo, you're telling China, Like, Yo,
Speaker 1: let me buy let me get seven million of them
Speaker 1: U car chips, them car micro chips. Japan, let me
Speaker 1: get seven car micro chips, seven a million of them.
Speaker 1: They're like all right, cool, Uh that's gonna be nine
Speaker 1: trillion dollars. You're like, yo, well, uh, send a link, send,
Speaker 1: send a square link. I'll just I'll swipe my card
Speaker 1: and you're gonna swipe your card. That mud gonna say processing, processing,
Speaker 1: processing processing. At some point, Japan gonna be like, I
Speaker 1: want my money. Look. That's when the cartel dude from
Speaker 1: Mexico fly in and he's like, Yo, where my money.
Speaker 1: That's a nice house you got. I see I see that,
Speaker 1: I see you shining in that car. I see look,
Speaker 1: I see. I said that's a nice car you got outside,
Speaker 1: nigg that's a nice house. That's a nice beach house.
Speaker 1: You got so then what happens is like, Yo, whatever
Speaker 1: wealth is here, it's not distributed, right, the top ten
Speaker 1: percent got everything. So this is happening now internally. So
Speaker 1: then some sort of like conflict happens internally where the
Speaker 1: nation is like, look, man, we like, look, y'all need
Speaker 1: to rethink this stuff out because we're producing all the
Speaker 1: product and y'all making all the money. So then you
Speaker 1: have a a call for the redistribution of wealth. I
Speaker 1: don't know if this ship is sounded familiar to you,
Speaker 1: but then you have an other side that says, wait, wait, wait,
Speaker 1: no, no no, no, no, no, no, no, everything's fine. We
Speaker 1: got this. Y'all need to stop tripping. How about your
Speaker 1: work harder? Hell? I did you work harder? And has
Speaker 1: that solved either with the civil war or a culture
Speaker 1: war that's going on on Twitter? Like we got it right?
Speaker 1: And what happens while that's happening. I know education suffers,
Speaker 1: I know the policing goes up because look, military that's
Speaker 1: not protecting your safety is protecting our money. The police
Speaker 1: ain't protecting your safety, they're protecting that property. When when
Speaker 1: you when you got your sociopath in the hood, that's
Speaker 1: just shooting. They're protecting their interests. It's the block. Niks
Speaker 1: ain't worried about you. Ain't worried about the block. They
Speaker 1: worry you securing the bag. So you gotta make sure
Speaker 1: that their money good. What do we call that? The
Speaker 1: military industrial complex? They need to be able to get
Speaker 1: their money. They need to be cool because everybody coming
Speaker 1: after us. And while we can't get our ship together
Speaker 1: on the inside, China watching somebody over there watching. They're
Speaker 1: watching you fight inside it. They're watching y'all not be
Speaker 1: as smart. They watching y'all spending y'all time with a
Speaker 1: dollar that don't mean ship no more, because y'all don't
Speaker 1: got comfortable. Y'all ain't got the grit you got used
Speaker 1: to being up. Your kids don't even go to college
Speaker 1: no more because it cost too much. And y'all can't
Speaker 1: even get the ship figured out because ain't no way,
Speaker 1: ain't no reason on God Green Earth college should cost
Speaker 1: this much. And y'all don't know how to work no
Speaker 1: more because you expect the government to pay y'all's debt.
Speaker 1: Y'all falling off again. This is China's perspective, or Whoever's next?
Speaker 1: And what what? What? Happens is some sort of some
Speaker 1: sort of charismatic totalitarian, some sort of populace dude come
Speaker 1: up and he say, hey, listen, listen, I'm gonna fix this.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna calm everybody down. You just let's just just
Speaker 1: give me all the power. I'll fix this for y'all.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you some sort of peace. This is
Speaker 1: how you get the rise of these like dictators. You
Speaker 1: get the rise of these auto cracks because they're like, no,
Speaker 1: it's cool, I'll fix your money. You know what we
Speaker 1: need to do. We need to muscle up. And you
Speaker 1: muscle up on your own people to get them to chill.
Speaker 1: And then you muscle up because you don't want nobody
Speaker 1: outside to think that there's problems happening. But there is
Speaker 1: problems happening because you're not innovating no more, y'all don't
Speaker 1: got comfy. Y'are spending your money. You you spreading your
Speaker 1: money too far. You're fighting on so many levels. Look
Speaker 1: how many, how many? How many American outposts are there
Speaker 1: of the military cross We can't keep spending this much money?
Speaker 1: Why because we ain't got it. Think we ain't got it.
Speaker 1: The money made up China watching it, trying to get
Speaker 1: their act together, Russia trying to get their act together
Speaker 1: because Russia used to be up. And then what happens
Speaker 1: either we while we're fighting on the inside, somebody come
Speaker 1: knocking on our door and stretch us too thin. Look,
Speaker 1: that's what happened with Britain. Britain got stretched too thin.
Speaker 1: Great Britain got stretched too thin at the end of
Speaker 1: World War Two. They couldn't pay their debts. You ain't
Speaker 1: got no money. Oh we got it. We're good. You
Speaker 1: are from us, but you got passed back though up.
Speaker 1: So when you think about where we are in the nation,
Speaker 1: you gotta ask yourself, yo, where are we? I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: We we ain't really educating our children the way we
Speaker 1: used to. Not like we ever really worked, I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, anybody that got any sense with money
Speaker 1: then left the place they're not. That's why it's like
Speaker 1: build U s A by us a nigga. You losing money, Nahmi?
Speaker 1: Why would I do that when I can get the
Speaker 1: work from China for half the price and it's just
Speaker 1: as good. That don't make no good money sense. China
Speaker 1: been reverse engineering all of your innovation and they didn't
Speaker 1: figure out how to do it cheaper. And I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say this as callous as possible. Y'all worried about civil
Speaker 1: rights and ship niggd We tell you to work, you work.
Speaker 1: Anybody was sense gonna get what they can't get for
Speaker 1: cheaper and just as good, if not better, keep American jobs, nigga,
Speaker 1: Why like you, I think of it like if it's just,
Speaker 1: if it's just, if it's just raw, daddy, you gotta
Speaker 1: think of it like that. Why this one from over
Speaker 1: there is half the price, it costs better. And y'all
Speaker 1: printing money, Your money ain't even up no more. So
Speaker 1: where are we? I mean, we haven't done the big
Speaker 1: sell off like Britain had to do after like they
Speaker 1: printed their money, they had their great depression, I mean
Speaker 1: not that great depression when their their their pounds just
Speaker 1: started dripping, dripping down to the bottom at the end
Speaker 1: of World War Two when they tried to print more
Speaker 1: and then inflation got crazy and it was like, I
Speaker 1: can't pay my debts. This ain't real money. And you
Speaker 1: had this, like I said, somebody that when the when
Speaker 1: the cartel boss come in and say, you all right,
Speaker 1: give me that house. All right, give me that bike,
Speaker 1: all right, give me that necklace. That's the sell off.
Speaker 1: At some point, you gotta you gotta get rid of
Speaker 1: all your stuff because you gotta pay these foods back. Okay,
Speaker 1: that hasn't happened in America yet. We ain't got to
Speaker 1: full civil war yet, although the January six joint got
Speaker 1: real close. Ain't. Nobody actually yet has yet to pop
Speaker 1: off on us. But the wealth gap, oh that's there.
Speaker 1: The inflation, Oh that's there. The stimulus, oh that's there.
Speaker 1: I just said, I just read that, uh Biden given
Speaker 1: eight million dollars billion dollars, eight million dollars to uh
Speaker 1: the Ukraine. Nigger where you get that money from? Because
Speaker 1: it's not real, y'all. Now, can our nation's leaders get
Speaker 1: together and actually do the hard things? I don't think.
Speaker 1: So that's the part I'm worried about. Like I said,
Speaker 1: every nation grand opening, grand closing. But it don't mean
Speaker 1: we disappear off the face of the earth. It just
Speaker 1: means we just become just like every other nation, which
Speaker 1: we always were. Everybody had their moment in the sun.
Speaker 1: Will be fine, But I think to shave off the
Speaker 1: pain of all this, there's two principles that Daily O presents,
Speaker 1: which I have said so many times, which makes me
Speaker 1: feel vindicated. It's pretty simple. Make more than you spend,
Speaker 1: and treat people fairly. Don't spend money you ain't got.
Speaker 1: If I wrote a financial book, it would be that
Speaker 1: one pain age. Don't spend money you don't have. That way,
Speaker 1: ain't gotta worried about. None of the speculationship. Don't spend
Speaker 1: money you ain't got. I know, cost of living is ridiculous.
Speaker 1: That was like the one I said before. I know
Speaker 1: this is super easy. I'm just saying, as a nation
Speaker 1: and as a whole, spend money you ain't got. And
Speaker 1: to just treat people fairly. What wealth gap is unfair
Speaker 1: paying people below their wages before living below we're living wages,
Speaker 1: it's unfair. Just just treat people fairly, fad what they work,
Speaker 1: and don't spend money you ain't got. I know it's
Speaker 1: not that simple, and I know this arc we just
Speaker 1: explained ain't exactly it, and I know there's a lot
Speaker 1: to disagree with. I'll tell you what, though, it all
Speaker 1: falls down, y'all. The question is how hard you're gonna fall?
Speaker 1: And who did you smash on the way up because
Speaker 1: them niggas is watching little politics, y'all. M yeah, this
Speaker 1: is here. Thing was recorded by ME Propaganda in East Lows,
Speaker 1: Boil Heights, Los Angeles, California. That smug was mixed, edited, mastered,
