WEBVTT - The Mark Moss Show Mar 25, 2022 0:00:01.560 --> 0:00:04.640 Everyone, Welcome back to another episode of The Mark Moth 0:00:04.880 --> 0:00:09.200 Show where we're walking you through, talking you through the 0:00:09.240 --> 0:00:11.399 transition that the world is going through right now. Talking 0:00:11.400 --> 0:00:16.520 about the transition and from a centralized world into a 0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:19.400 decentralized world. And what do I mean by that, Well, 0:00:20.000 --> 0:00:24.400 centralization meaning that everything is growing bigger and more connected 0:00:24.680 --> 0:00:29.920 and being more centrally planned, meaning, um, one small group 0:00:29.960 --> 0:00:32.920 of people at the top telling all the other people 0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:36.360 down below what to do with their lives and the world. 0:00:36.840 --> 0:00:38.519 That's kind of kind of what we're talking about here, 0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:41.000 if you would imagine, um, the United States when it 0:00:41.080 --> 0:00:45.479 was founded, was founded as a decentralized government, meaning that 0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:49.760 there was fifty independent states that we're all supposed to 0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:53.320 be independent, and today almost everything is federal, right, so 0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:56.760 we have one small group of politicians in Washington, d c. 0:00:57.320 --> 0:01:00.480 That tell three million Americans what to do on a 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:03.120 regular basis. It wasn't supposed to be like that. It 0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:05.720 was supposed to be decentralized, meaning if I didn't like 0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:07.360 the way it was in my state, I could move 0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:10.200 to another state under under the way that the government 0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:13.520 was founded as a republic, and it is a republic, 0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:18.000 it's not democracy. Under republic, you have a representative government. UM. 0:01:18.120 --> 0:01:21.119 And in that sort of a situation, a couple of things. 0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:23.720 One UM, the state that you're in, the governor of 0:01:23.720 --> 0:01:25.480 that state should be the most important thing. That the 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:28.800 President of the United States should be Really not that 0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:30.720 big of a deal, shouldn't really impact your life much 0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:34.560 because it's it's not federal. The federal would only be 0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:37.880 dealing with um, with federal things like other nations and 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:41.160 things like that. But what's happened is everything has become federal. 0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:43.840 Of course, the Biden administration and not just not just him, 0:01:43.880 --> 0:01:47.200 all the other other administrations even before him, continue to 0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:51.560 creep continued to build more and more and more federal laws. 0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:55.200 So of course recently we saw like a federal you know, 0:01:55.320 --> 0:02:00.240 mask mandate and a federal vaccine mandate, etcetera, and um. 0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:02.680 Again those should be done um state by state, and 0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:06.400 so we've seen things continue to get centralized. UM. And 0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:08.520 not just in the United States. It's happening all over 0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:11.280 the world obviously. And really this trend started about two 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:14.880 and fifty years ago with the advent of them or 0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:19.600 the invention of the Industrial revolution, and before the Industrial Revolution, 0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:23.040 which was in the late seventeen hundreds, everything was spread 0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:25.400 out around the farms. It was farms and cottage industries. 0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:29.280 And through the Industrial Revolution, we created machines, and machines 0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:33.480 could now do work for people, and this caused people 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:35.920 to move to the cities, leave the farms, moved to 0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:38.680 the city. So we had all these decentralized people all 0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:42.120 over the all over the farms now moving into central locations, 0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:45.280 into cities and building factories. And now all these people 0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:47.400 are working at one business, at one factory. So we 0:02:47.400 --> 0:02:49.400 started the centralization. And over the last two and fifty years, 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:53.640 the world has continued to trend that way towards centralization. 0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:55.560 And then it got to the point where like, if 0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:57.960 you wanted to make it in this world, um, you 0:02:57.960 --> 0:02:59.400 couldn't just live anywhere in the world. You had to 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:01.840 live where there were actual business and commerce. That was 0:03:01.880 --> 0:03:04.840 mostly in the United States. All right, Well, will say 0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:09.880 North America, Western Europe, and um, not just North America. 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:11.359 You had to move to the United States, not just 0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:12.800 the United States. You had to move to a city 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:16.519 like New York or Chicago, Atlanta, San Francisco, etcetera. UM 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:20.120 here in southern California, UM, Los Angeles obviously is the 0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:23.440 big city here, and people commute. I mean some people 0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:26.399 commute over an hour a day each way to get 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:29.120 into the city. And that's been the trend of the 0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:33.119 last two d and fifty years. However, that's a pendulum 0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:36.600 that swings back and forth. It swings from centralization to 0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:41.160 d centralization. And this pendulum is maxing out on this 0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:47.160 centralization scale and is now just about to start swinging 0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:51.400 back and swinging back hard back towards the centralization. Now, 0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:54.160 it's already been under way for quite some time. Um, 0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:56.040 and that's part of the reason why the world is 0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:59.080 getting so shaken up, getting so shaken up and and 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:01.839 going through these uh you know, growing pains, if you will, 0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:05.000 because of the way the world's changing. So instead of 0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:08.680 these big giant um factories and and companies like we 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:10.640 used to have, now we have all these small companies. 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:13.400 And it's really the the Internet that has been the 0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:16.240 catalyst for that change. Remember, as I always say, it's 0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:19.159 technology that changes the way that we uh communicate and 0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:22.280 organize and work. And that's exactly what the Internet has done. 0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:25.560 And so, um, if you used to go to Chicago 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:29.760 or New York, all those big skyscrapers there used to 0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:36.800 be from companies, companies that made things industry, they made 0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:40.280 goods and services. Now today those buildings are mostly full 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:43.760 of financial companies or a bunch of small companies. And 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:46.480 today you can have you know, people working for you 0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:48.719 all over the world. So the Internet has really created 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:53.280 this decentralization. And then we have COVID which is only 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:55.479 sped that up and to the point where you know, 0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:58.400 people were forced to work from home, and now people 0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:00.200 are starting to move to all different area is not 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:02.520 you know, now we have real estate blowing up in 0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:06.560 Idaho or Wyoming or Montana or Colorado because people can 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:09.279 actually live there. Now they can actually work from there. 0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:12.120 And this trend will only continue on. I think we're 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:14.080 going to continue to see this trend play out over 0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:17.520 the next hundred years, um gradually and suddenly, but it's 0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:19.600 actually happening really fast. Like I said, this COVID was 0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:23.240 was a big catalyst for that. And so now people 0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:27.240 can move to Wyoming or Idaho, or Montana or Mexico 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:32.799 or Central America or Fiji or Bali or wherever they want. 0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:36.320 Um And and this this trend will continue and as 0:05:36.320 --> 0:05:39.440 it does, we're going to continue to see Um, the 0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:42.480 we're gonna continue to see these growing pains, but until 0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:45.560 then we're kind of maxing out on this centralization. It's 0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:47.880 something that I've been talking quite a bit about on 0:05:47.880 --> 0:05:50.920 my YouTube channel. UM. If you don't follow me there, 0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:53.360 you should, you can just search Mark Moss on YouTube. 0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:59.400 And I'm calling it the the blowoff top of centralization. 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:02.040 So what does the blow off top mean? Well, if 0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:04.400 you understand financial markets, then you understand what to blow 0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.440 off top is. We can look back at like the 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:08.920 dot com boom of the two thousand's, we can look 0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:12.320 at the bitcoin boom in and basically what happens is 0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:14.960 as the price starts going up, more and more people 0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:17.000 come in and start buying it because you know it's 0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:19.279 going up and they want to make money um or 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:21.000 like real estate in like two thousand four or two 0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:23.840 five thousand six, um. And so as it's going up, 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:26.599 more people come in. And when more people come in 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:28.160 and pushes the price up even more, which brings more 0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:29.560 people in, which puts the price to be more more 0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:32.080 people in. It this a reflective loop, and it starts 0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:35.919 sucking so many people in that it starts going straight vertical. 0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:38.600 I mean, it's just a parabolic run. Now, at the 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:40.560 top of these blow off tops, we can, like I said, 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:42.840 you see them many times throughout the stock markets, real 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:46.200 estate markets, etcetera. At the very top, they become the 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:50.360 most volatile because it's sucked in all these brand new 0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:53.080 people who don't really know what they wanted. They just said, 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:54.960 people are making money, I'm just gonna buy it, right, 0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:58.800 And so then the price starts going swinging violently. The 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:00.840 volatility is violent, going up and down, up and down, 0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:02.440 up and down, up and down, and then boom, and 0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:05.120 then the market sells off. And what happens is all 0:07:05.160 --> 0:07:06.840 those people that got sucked in at the very top 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:09.720 that didn't really know what they wanted, um, as soon 0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:12.040 they just thought, hey, I'm gonna get rich, as soon 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:15.600 as they start losing money, they start leaving. As humans 0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:19.200 were very basic, we're very basic. Beans. Were were motivated 0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:22.240 by two things. We're motivated by pleasure and pains. We 0:07:22.280 --> 0:07:24.160 want to whenever there's pleasure, we want more of it. 0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:27.040 We want to run towards pleasure, rush towards pleasure. And 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:30.000 when there's pain, we want to run away from the pain. 0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:31.880 We want to get away from that. And so as 0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:34.000 the price is going up. Everyone's getting pleasure but me. 0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:36.000 Everyone's making money but me, and I want some of that. 0:07:36.120 --> 0:07:38.120 I want some of that pleasure, and so I run 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:39.840 towards that. I jump in, I buy at the top. 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:43.040 But then when the markets start selling off, it's painful. 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:44.760 I don't want to lose any more money, and sorry, 0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:47.360 start selling off. And that's why we get this massive 0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:50.160 blow off top. Well, I'm talking about the blow off 0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:55.040 top of centralization. What does that mean? Well, very similar, 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:59.600 Just like we're talking about, um, financial markets, I believe 0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:01.760 that we're in a political blow off top as well, 0:08:01.920 --> 0:08:04.040 which of course will affect the financial markets as well. 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:07.000 It already is, and so um, we're talking about this 0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:10.840 blow off top of centralization where the entire as I 0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:13.720 already kind of outlined, the United States has been centralizing. 0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:15.560 We used to have fifty independent states and now we 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:18.480 have one federal government. And around the world we used 0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:21.520 to have twenty seven independent member states in Europe and 0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:24.600 now they're the EU and now they've centralized as well. 0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:26.880 And now even on top of it, the entire world 0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:29.640 has become centralized under the control of the central bankers, 0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:33.240 which is the central banks with the b I S 0:08:33.280 --> 0:08:35.760 above them the Bank of International Settlements. I had a 0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:38.080 guest on last week we talked in depth about the 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:41.040 b I S. UM. You can find that just search 0:08:41.120 --> 0:08:44.240 Mark Moss podcasts and you can look for that episode 0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:46.439 UM where we talked about the b I S and 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:48.120 if we want to learn more about that. Most people 0:08:48.120 --> 0:08:50.000 don't anything about that, but it's been centralized by the 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:52.000 b S and the central bankers on top. And then 0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:54.720 of course we have the policymakers like the World Economic 0:08:54.800 --> 0:08:58.320 Forum UM, and then we have the policy distributors down 0:08:58.360 --> 0:09:00.240 below that, which is like the World Health Organism, Astion, 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:02.319 the I m F, etcetera. And then the government sit 0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:06.199 down below that. So the whole world has become centralized 0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:09.000 and and just like financial markets where it pulls more 0:09:09.000 --> 0:09:11.480 people in, that's exactly what's happening. I want to I 0:09:11.480 --> 0:09:12.719 want to break that down for you, but I want 0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:14.160 to more important to tell you when I think the 0:09:14.160 --> 0:09:15.880 peak is and when it starts to blow off down 0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:18.800 to the downside. UM. I want to explain what I 0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:20.199 think could happen over the net a couple of years, 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:21.880 what you should be doing to protect yourself, and then 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:24.600 we'll talk about the future and what it holds after that, 0:09:24.800 --> 0:09:26.719 and you're listening to the markma Show talking about the 0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:30.640 decentralized Revolution, talking about the intersection of politics, finance, and technology. 0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:33.880 I got a lot more to cover. Don't go away, 0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:36.480 I'm gonna be right back. All right, welcome back. You 0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:38.920 are listening to the Mark Moah Show, and we are 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:42.840 talking about talking about the decentralized revolution. We're talking about 0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:46.240 I'm talking specifically about this what I'm calling the blow 0:09:46.360 --> 0:09:49.559 off top of centralization. Of course, if you listen to 0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:51.080 me on a regular basis, you know that I talked 0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:56.520 about the intersection of politics, finance, and technology and trying 0:09:56.520 --> 0:09:58.439 to make sense of what the world is going through 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.800 and how to navigate it correctly. I was talking about 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:03.640 how we're in this blow off top of centralization, and 0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:05.080 I kind of broke down why the blow off top 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:07.880 means and centralization. But basically, um, just like in a 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:10.079 financial market, it starts sucking in more and more people, 0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:12.240 and it starts going up almost in a straight parabolic 0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:14.560 line and gets very volt to the top. That's exactly 0:10:14.600 --> 0:10:16.839 what's happened with centralization. So if we look back about 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:19.800 eighty years ago at the end of World War Two, UM, 0:10:19.840 --> 0:10:22.440 you know, a couple couple of things happened in the 0:10:22.480 --> 0:10:25.680 United States. FDR created the New Deal. The New Deal 0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:29.680 turned America from like a free market capitalist country into 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:34.960 like a socialist country with massive government redistribution, massive government spending, 0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:39.960 massive government involvement. UM. That the birth of lots of institutions, 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:42.000 you know, the SEC and the f d A and 0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:45.760 all these things, UM, the d e A and all 0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:48.040 this um. And at the same time we had the 0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:51.640 kind of start of the EU, the start of the 0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:55.319 U n UM. Then as we go forward a little bit, 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:57.360 we had, you know, the birth of the World Economic Forum, 0:10:57.679 --> 0:10:59.760 and things have continue to get more and more centralized. 0:10:59.760 --> 0:11:02.160 And then I think also just like a financial market 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:04.360 blow off top starts sucking more people in at the top, 0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:06.680 I think it also started sucking more people in as well. 0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:10.239 So it's like, um, we used to have big corporations 0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:13.480 that took care of people's retirement, and now let's just 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:15.360 let the government take care of that. How about the 0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:18.800 government just take care of retirements, so security, pensions, entitlements, 0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:20.959 things like that. That sounds good, right, Let's just let 0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:23.680 them take care of that. And then with Obama came 0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:26.120 the Obamacare, so you know, let's just let them take 0:11:26.120 --> 0:11:28.600 care of healthcare to two thirds of the economy. Sure, 0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:31.200 just take that over. So they took over retirements, they 0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:33.839 took over investments. Oh yeah, now they just take over 0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:35.760 the entire health care sector. You just take care of that. 0:11:36.320 --> 0:11:38.480 Oh what about education, Yeah, why don't want? You just 0:11:38.480 --> 0:11:40.360 take over education too. So now they took over all 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:45.640 the education. So now we have money, education, health. They're 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:48.240 just taking it overall, and we just as people just 0:11:48.280 --> 0:11:50.640 continue to give them more and more and more. Next thing, 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:53.080 you know, we need the government to save us from everything. 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:55.400 Can you save us from these tech monopolies? Can you 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:57.880 save us from these big bad oil companies? And on 0:11:57.920 --> 0:11:59.280 and on and on and so we've just continue to 0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:01.760 assign more and tell we're at this point now where 0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:04.400 we're at peak centralization. And just like a financial blow 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:06.760 off top, at the end of that parabolic run, the 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:10.360 financial markets get very very volatile I meaning they swing 0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:12.840 up and down. And that's exactly what we're seeing right now. 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:17.960 So we're seeing, um, Canada get way too crazy, um 0:12:18.080 --> 0:12:20.320 and the people push back next to you know, there's 0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:23.480 massive protests going on, shutting the country down. They come 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:26.000 up even more. They start freezing bank accounts, and the 0:12:26.000 --> 0:12:28.960 people start revolting and they unfreeze the bank accounts, and 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:31.520 so we have this back and forth and it only 0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:34.280 continues to get worse. Now now there's this war, and 0:12:34.320 --> 0:12:37.880 then we have Russia and Ukraine and um again, it's 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:41.240 all these central leaders, like there's a war going on 0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:45.640 with Russia and Ukraine. Somehow it's the United States is problem, 0:12:45.720 --> 0:12:48.720 and the United States now has to lead the world 0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:54.040 in sanctions, and so we're gonna go penalize Russia. Personally, 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:57.840 I don't have any problem with any Russian people. I 0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:00.480 don't know any I guess I've met a cup Russians 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:02.200 here and there, but I don't know anybody over there. 0:13:02.240 --> 0:13:05.280 I'm not mad at them. I don't know them, and 0:13:05.280 --> 0:13:07.560 I would imagine people in Russia aren't mad at us 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:11.559 and don't like us either. It's the leaders. It's Biden 0:13:12.040 --> 0:13:16.800 and his administration and Putin and their administration, central authorities. 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:19.840 They don't know what we want. If I had to vote, 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.360 I would say, we don't go to war. That's my vote. 0:13:23.320 --> 0:13:27.520 But they don't ask what I want. Central central authority, 0:13:27.600 --> 0:13:31.320 central planning. That's exactly what's happening. Um and it's all 0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:36.560 powered by the central banks, by their ability to print 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:38.800 money at will. That's the source of all their power. 0:13:39.280 --> 0:13:43.040 I've used the analogy many times before of Star Wars, 0:13:43.080 --> 0:13:45.360 and I think Star Wars is a great analogy for this. UM. 0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:48.040 If you've watched the original Star Wars, UM, the first 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:50.720 one that came out, UM, it was a story of 0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:54.720 the rebels on the ground and they were fighting the Empire. UM. 0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:58.200 Maybe it sounds kind of eerily familiar now. They were 0:13:58.240 --> 0:14:00.680 fighting the Empire, and the Empire had the Death Star 0:14:01.520 --> 0:14:03.360 and it was like you know, this big round ball, 0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:05.319 this spaceship up and up in the sky, up or 0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:08.880 up in space, and the rebels wanted to blow up 0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:11.280 the Death Star, and if they could blow up the 0:14:11.280 --> 0:14:14.240 Death Star, then they would defeat the Empire. And if 0:14:14.280 --> 0:14:16.360 you remember in this story, or and if you don't, 0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:19.200 we go watch it after I explain to you spoiler alert, 0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:22.520 but um, Luke Skywalker and the band of rebels they 0:14:22.560 --> 0:14:24.880 flew into the Death Star when their X Wing fighters 0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:28.160 and uh, there was a section on the Death Star 0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:30.480 and this giant ball of a space of a space 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:33.040 station or whatever, and they had to fly into like 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:34.760 this channel and they had to fly through this channel, 0:14:35.200 --> 0:14:37.600 and there was one spot at the end that they 0:14:37.640 --> 0:14:40.120 had to hit. And if he could blow up this 0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:43.080 one spot, and the whole Death Star would fall apart, 0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:46.800 and then the whole empire would fall apart. And that's 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:50.720 exactly what we have going on today. Um, the central 0:14:50.720 --> 0:14:54.240 banks the empire, if you will. What's an empire? Right? 0:14:54.280 --> 0:14:56.760 An empire is as as a nation of government that 0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:59.360 continues to expand, expand expand, basically takes over everything and 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:02.880 controls every the Roman Empire. Now we have the United 0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:04.960 States Empire or in Star Wars, we're talking about that 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:07.600 empire UM and and the source of their power was 0:15:07.640 --> 0:15:10.000 the Death Star, and that one spot on the desk 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:11.960 star was the weak point and the source of the 0:15:12.080 --> 0:15:15.240 United States Empire, the global empire, as I said, it's 0:15:15.280 --> 0:15:17.120 kind of been taken over by the central bankers, the 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:19.440 b i s at the top. The source of their 0:15:19.520 --> 0:15:24.440 power is the money printer. That's that little spot on 0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:27.760 the death Stars, the money printer. UM. And if we can, 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:29.960 if we can take away their source of their power, 0:15:30.000 --> 0:15:32.320 which is their money printer, then they start to lose 0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:34.440 all their power. So how is it they can just 0:15:34.760 --> 0:15:36.880 um continue to pass these draconian measures. How is it 0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:38.760 they can just continue to print trillions of dollars the 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:42.160 other day or just this week? Um, the US passed 0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:44.280 that was, I think a one point six trillion dollar 0:15:44.360 --> 0:15:47.080 bill within a couple of days. It's like I didn't 0:15:47.080 --> 0:15:48.920 pull up the staff from shooting off the cuff here, 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:50.400 so I don't have the exact data in front of me, 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:53.280 So I apologize for the fact checkers out there. But 0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:55.600 it was something like, I don't know, twenty thousand pages 0:15:55.720 --> 0:15:57.720 or something like that, and they passed it within like 0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:02.520 a day or two. No bloody read that, and they 0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:04.880 just fired it up at one point six trillion. Let's 0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:06.520 just dump it into the market. And where is it? 0:16:06.520 --> 0:16:09.400 Where's the money going to go? Who's going to oversee it? 0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:12.640 Who even read words? It's gonna say, nobody obviously, And 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:14.280 how how can they just do that? How can they 0:16:14.320 --> 0:16:16.600 just print up one point six trillion? Well, the money 0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:20.400 printers shouldn't be able to create money from thin air. 0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:22.840 If if, if you anytime, you have one group of 0:16:22.880 --> 0:16:25.360 people that are forced to trade their time for money, 0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:28.720 which is most of us, and then you have another 0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:30.680 group of people that have a money printer and they 0:16:30.720 --> 0:16:34.360 can print money at will. It leaves the slavery every 0:16:34.400 --> 0:16:37.800 single time because I only have my I only have 0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:39.720 my time to trade and they have an unlimited money printer. 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:43.920 Doesn't sound very fair, does it? And so that's this 0:16:44.080 --> 0:16:46.600 is the decentralized revolution that we're talking about. This is 0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:49.920 the blow off top that we're talking about, and it's 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:52.680 climaxing here, we're getting to a climax. Now. The world 0:16:52.800 --> 0:16:57.160 reserve currency has been the US dollar. The US dollar 0:16:57.240 --> 0:16:59.600 and the ability to create more U. S. Dollars. Is 0:16:59.680 --> 0:17:03.040 this or of their power that's led to this globalization movement? 0:17:04.240 --> 0:17:07.720 Now maybe the U. S. Dollar falls apart on its own, 0:17:08.240 --> 0:17:10.320 or maybe there's something that comes along and knocks it off, 0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:12.840 or maybe there's something even more deliberate. Now one of 0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:17.520 my favorite economists, F. A. Hyak famously gave us a 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:20.520 gave us a prophetic message. He said there would never 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:22.440 be a sound money again. A sound money being the 0:17:22.480 --> 0:17:25.159 money that can't be artificially and created. He said, there 0:17:25.200 --> 0:17:26.879 should never be a sound money again until the thing 0:17:27.040 --> 0:17:30.240 is taken from the hands of the government. But it 0:17:30.320 --> 0:17:33.240 can't be done by force. It can only be done 0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:39.280 by some sly roundabout way. Introducing something that can't be stopped, 0:17:39.400 --> 0:17:41.920 so it can couldn't be done by force only in 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:43.960 a sly roundabout way. Now, he said this in the 0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:48.640 eighties very prophetically, and maybe just maybe he was explaining 0:17:48.760 --> 0:17:50.399 what is going on today. I want to break that 0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:53.040 down for you. I want to break down what what 0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:55.240 what left to their own devices, what's already happening. Maybe 0:17:55.240 --> 0:17:57.400 the empire is going to shoot themselves in the foot, um, 0:17:57.880 --> 0:17:59.880 And I got a lot more to break down into 0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:02.680 Gus in this blow off top Um. You're listening to 0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:05.560 the Mark Mo Show, talking about the decentralized revolution, talking 0:18:05.560 --> 0:18:10.800 about the converging cycles of politics, finance, and technology, talking 0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:13.160 about the way that the world is changing before our eyes. 0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:15.080 And I'm really right now breaking down what's going to 0:18:15.160 --> 0:18:17.080 happen over the next couple of years and what happens 0:18:17.080 --> 0:18:19.320 on the other side of that. So don't go away, 0:18:20.000 --> 0:18:22.040 all right, Welcome back. You're listening to the Mark Mo Show. 0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:25.000 We're talking about the intersection of politics, finance, and technology, 0:18:25.560 --> 0:18:28.560 three converging cycles that are happening right now. And I've 0:18:28.560 --> 0:18:30.200 been breaking this down for you, kind of setting this 0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:33.520 up a little bit and explaining how these blow off 0:18:33.600 --> 0:18:36.960 tops work, what that means, how the centralization is coming together. 0:18:37.119 --> 0:18:39.399 If you've missed it, UM, I can't go back and 0:18:39.480 --> 0:18:41.600 explain to you, but you can catch it. You can 0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:44.440 catch it on the podcast UM just search Mark Moss 0:18:44.440 --> 0:18:46.879 podcast or Mark Mark Moss I Heart and you'll find it. 0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:49.720 UM queue up for you when you're ready. But whatever 0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:52.399 you don't listen, don't don't miss it because you definitely 0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:54.480 want to kind of catch this because I'm breaking it 0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:57.400 down kind of what this intersection means and like I said, 0:18:57.440 --> 0:18:59.920 really what this blowoff top means. Now I was talking 0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:02.760 about specifically before the break, talking about the source of 0:19:02.840 --> 0:19:06.719 their power really being the money supply. So we've had 0:19:06.760 --> 0:19:09.640 this centralization has continued to grow really for the last 0:19:09.640 --> 0:19:13.400 two or fifty years. It's only continued to escalate UM, 0:19:13.480 --> 0:19:15.439 and now we can see that we're a peak centralization. 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:17.960 Of course, I'm talking about the the B, I S, 0:19:18.040 --> 0:19:20.560 the Bank comment and International Settlements. I'm talking about the 0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:23.600 the U N, the I m F, the World Economic Forum, 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:26.960 the World Health Organization, the World Trade Organization, all these 0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:32.880 three letter UM NGOs that stands for non government organizations. 0:19:33.119 --> 0:19:36.119 We didn't we didn't we didn't vote for any of 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:37.960
