Speaker 1

Hello, and welcome back to another episode of the Mark Moas Show where we talk about the decentralized revolution, so you can understand the way the world is changing, so of course you can navigate it to build, grow and protect your wealth in this coming age has changed, and of course we look at through the lens of politics, finance, and technology, and that technology that's really powering and driving

this the catalyst of change, which is bitcoin. The decentralized technology that's going to change the world, is changing the world right now. And of course I like to bring to you lots of information and some of the latest breaking news each and every week, so of course you're

kept up to date. You know what's going on, and there is never a shortage of information going on because it has been a wild ride this year, and I think three is going to be even bigger, So make sure you're tuning in with me each and every week. You know, some things I saw in the bitcoin cryptocurrency ecosystem space this year um really kind of help shift or shape what I think is going to happen next year.

And you know, Bitcoin has been kind of sitting in this sixteen thousand dollar range, Etherium has kind of been in this eleven range. Things have been kind of holding right.

We had a really bad year. Cryptocurrency sold off right through the domino effect really from you know, tarat Luna to Celsius, the three years capital and on and on and on and of course now f t X. But you know, the one thing that gives me some hope that maybe we found a bottom is that, you know, markets stopped going down when there's no more sellers, and when the ft X system collapse happened, it didn't really drive the prices down anymore. And that was big news.

It was the second largest cryptocurrency exchange, so you know, of course, you know Tara, Luna and Celsius and all those were big. F t X was bigger. It was bigger for any number of metrics that we want to look at, but it didn't push the prices down even more. And what we've also seen is that with bitcoin in this like sixteen thousand dollar range, there's massive of support.

And when I say massive support, what I mean is anytime it gets down to about sixteen thousand, the amount of volume, the amount of buying goes through the roof, like everybody's trying to buy at that price point, Like there's all these by orders sat there and we can see this week what we call the giga Chad. I'm talking about Michael Sailor, Giga Chad. Um. He shows that there is massive support his company, micro Strategy, has continued to be buy bitcoin. They've been buying it a month

after month after month. A lot of people have have criticized Michael Sailor. You know he bought the top. He bought the top, and Michael Sailor says, yeah, I did. And guess what, I'm gonna buy every other top there is because I'm gonna keep buying. And he does. He keeps buying. As a matter of fact, this week we saw that micro Strategy added two thousand, five hundred bitcoin for forty five million in just the last two months alone.

Now I know a lot of you are just like man, if I could just get to one single bitcoin, I could just get the one's two five d get a chad. That's why we call him that. Over the last two months, um and he did a couple other things, some things that maybe you could think about, Um, well, you don't have much time left. But basically they decided to add

to the stockpile in November December. Adding all of those bitcoin, they sold a little bit of it two tax loss harvest, harvest those losses, and then they bought a bunch more. It brings the company holdings up to one hundred and thirty two thousand, five hundred bitcoin. That is just amazing evaluation about two point two five billion. No. The reason why I talk about this is a couple of things. One, like I said, there's massive support at this sixteen dollar level.

The other reason why is that, Um, if you've ever listened to any interviews with Michael Saylor, which if you haven't, I would recommend um. He's one of the smartest guys in the world, specifically when it comes to technology, but not just technology. His his width of knowledge and depth of knowledge is is uh man. There's not very many people to have that. And I've been to his house twice for barbecues. I just had dinner with him a

couple of months ago. I've listened to tons of interviews with him, I've spent a lot of time with him, and he is one of the smartest guys in the world. And the reason why I say that not just how smart he is, He's he's I think one of the longest lasting um CEOs of a of a publicly traded technology company. I'm not a hounder centure on that something like that, though. Um he's built this technology company to be massive, and you know they make thirty million dollars

a year of profit free cash flow. I mean he's a billionaire. Obviously, he's managed to stay in um in in leadership of one of these companies for like the longest time, like over thirty years. I believe. Um he he he wrote a book talking about the mobile wave. I think that's what's called the mobile wave. I mean, he gets this. And the reason why I say that is because you know a lot of you are like, oh, you know, it's probably nothing. It's a scam, it's a fraud.

It's it's old, it's old technology. You know, governments are gonna ban it. Um I don't know if I should by I price is gonna still go down. Well, success leaves clues, So we try to find other people who are very successful, and we try to do some of the same things they're doing. And so when I look at people like that, he's certainly smarter than I am, and certainly smarter than you are, and so take notice.

I do some other things we saw in the cryptocurrency space, going back to some of these losses and Celsius and Voyager and ft X and so forth. A lot of you might have got caught up in that, and I have some uh, some good news maybe. Uh. First of all, don't get caught up ever again. Please learn your lesson. Bitcoin solved the oldest problem in the world. How do I protect my assets from being stolen? And you do that by taking custody on your own. Leaving them on

exchange defeats the whole purpose of bitcoin and cryptocurrency. By a hardware wallet like treads or or ledger. By that and just watch the videos on their website. They walk you through how to set it up. It's very easy. Anybody can do it. My parents are in their seventy they've done it. Okay, anyone can do it. Now, learn your lesson. Get all your money off the exchanges fast you can if you still have any there. However, if you did have money there that you that you've lost,

maybe it's not lost. Maybe some will be coming through bankruptcy. And what we found is now there's a couple of companies that have set up to actually buy you out. So if you have money sitting on one of those exchanges f t X, Voyage or Celsius, etcetera, that you hope that you'll get some back after they get through the litigation and bankruptcy whatnot. Some of these companies will

actually give you cash right now. Now, they're not going to give you full price at least, but we know that hundreds and hundreds of thousands of customers have been burned by this and they want to sell these claims just so they can get some money. So there's one called Cherokee Acquisition and there are bankruptcy claims broker Cherokee Acquisition and nearly five users of ft Excelsis and Voyage you have posted claims and they've been getting bought out.

There's another company called ex claim him X and then c l A i am Exclaim. There are bankruptcy Claims Trading startup and basically there again buying these claims from you, and you're taking a loss up front. But now you don't have to wait and wonder if you canna get something. You have to go through the whole bankruptcy proceeding. Hedge funds and distress debt investors are jumping in to bring money. Another one called Contrarian Capital Management, another one called invict

This Global Management. If you didn't get a chance to write these down, don't worry. You can go listen to this on demand on my YouTube channel. Just search Market Disruptors and you can watch this and replay it. Or just on your favorite podcast player, just search Mark Moss Show on your favorite podcast player and go back. Um, if you miss any of these names. But they're making

a lot of money. And we see Voyager bankruptcy claims dropped all the way to forty cents on the dollar on exclaim exclaim after xt X collapsed collapse in November. So this basically it's saying that you might be able to get about forty cents on the dollar. Um, they were getting sixty four cents on the dollar, but after x t X fd X collapse, they're down to forty cents. Uh. Celsius claims plunge, falling from highs of about te cents on the dollar to now nineteen cents after ft X collapsed.

Now you're probably not going to get a hundred cents anyway, right, So this is a discount off of the discount you're already gonna get, so you're probably not going to get uh maybe you know, you'd be lucky to get fifty or sixty cents. They're gonna give you forty right now. Maybe that's worth taking. We can see another one called noia in o i A noia capital. Um, they'll they

have a deal. They'll pay you five percent up front of the value of the claim and then so'll give you five percent up front and then pay out when the accounts are repaid. Or you can take two and a half percent up front and thirty five percent of the proceeds. That's noia in o I A. So there's some options if you want to get some money back if you've lost it there now they take the risk burden hands worth two in the bush. You can take the money up front now and then um wait and see.

You know, maybe getting the money now writing it off off your taxes is worth it to you. Um, you decide. Like I said, if you missed any of those names, just go check it out on the market Stipters website, on I'm Sorry, on YouTube channel, or on your favorite podcast player. Just searched The Mark Moss Show you're listening to the Mark Mos Show. Of course we're talking about

the decentralized revolution, the way the world is changing. I got more to cover when I come back on some of the biggest news headlines of the week, including oh my gosh, You're not gonna believe what the Mayor of New York said about surveillance, the Revolution and more. I'll be back in a minute. Don't go away, lell We're back. All right, Welcome back. If you're just tune in, you're listening to the Market Mos Show. We're talking about the

decentralized Revolution. And right now we are going through some of the biggest news headlines of the week, and of course we look at them through the lens of politics, finance, and technology, and I'd like to find the convergence of those three things. And this week, man, I saw some big news. You know. One thing that scares me is when they start telling you, um what I say, They say the quiet part out loud. They tell you the truth. Well they try to spin it a little bit, but

they tell you what they normally wouldn't tell you. So what do I mean by that? So? Um? You know, for example, with the Twitter files, uh, Elon Musk releases all this data that shows how the FBI has been um forcing or manipulating Twitter to censor information, and so everyone's on up war. Oh my gosh, we knew it. You know, the government, the FBI is censor information. They are telling them what to do. I can't believe it.

We we thought we we thought we knew they took the conspiracy and they come out and said, well, you guys think you came up with some conspiracy. Of course we do that. We do it all the time. We've always done that. And so when they started admitting it, it's almost more scary. I mean, it confirms what we already knew, but at least they were trying to hide it instead of doing it out in the open. And this story this week is one of those stories that's

like that. And I'm talking about New York City. And it's not an isolated instance to New York City. It's what they already do in China. It's what they're gonna do in the United States if you and I don't stand up and do something about it. So what am I talking about? The New York City Mayor Eric Adams, he declares, quote, I'm quoting him, big brother is protecting you. Oh.

That gives me chills just thinking about it. New York City Mayor Eric Adams response to criticism over increasing the use of Facial Record Nation technology by declaring, quote, big

brother is protecting you. Now. He made the comments in response to other elected officials, other representatives basically saying, look, man, we're worried about this, like you're using technology that that's gonna lead to a surveillance state on all pervasive and all controlling surveillance state, and and Adams Mayor Adams um asserted that New Yorkers felt they were living in a quote state of lawlessness end quote, and that his priority

was to quote stabilize the situation. So let's think about that for a second. He asserted that New Yorkers felt they were living in a state of lawlessness, and they are. If you guys haven't been paying attention, New York is in a state of lawlessness. The attacks on the subways are through the roof, The attacks on the streets are through the roof. The muggings, the beatings, the gunshots, they are through the roof. And I don't know why anybody would want to live there. Nobody. I don't care what

political party are on. Nobody wants to live in that state of violence. So he's true. They are living in a state of lawlessness and they don't want that. So his priority is to stabilize situation as it should be. However, here's the trick, right, here's the trick. Facial recognition technology uses surveillance cameras to flag up individuals who appear are on databasis of criminal suspects when they enter certain public places.

And so if all you do is give up all your privacy, if all you would just do is just give all control to flag you when you show up in public locations, if you just give all that control, they can keep you safe. They'll stabilize the situation. Oh you what else would do that? Oh you had to crackdown on crime. Oh you know, maybe if we actually held criminals in jail and we held them account for their crimes, not release them. Maybe if we actually punish them,

maybe crime would go back down. It's not a coincidence that in the most blue, you know, politically woke uh states or really counties, this is a problem San Francisco, Seattle. Now unfortunately, Los Angeles and of course New York, all of these areas, they have a massive increase in crime because they want to you know, shut down the police and take back their budgets. And they don't want to have a cash bail. They want to release criminals. They

don't want to prosecute crimes. And when you don't prosecute crimes, guess what happens, You get more of it. So they use that they destabilize the justice system. They don't prosecute crimes, they don't punish people, they don't crack down on it, and so we get an increase in crime. Then the people are terrified. Hey, I'm scared to live here because crime is rampant. And instead of fixing the problem they created,

they come in with a new one. Well, if only you'll let us take away all your privacy, if only you'll let us surveil you everywhere you go, then we can keep you safe. Really, if all you would do is enforced the laws that are already there, you could keep us safer, just like we used to be before we were so scared to live there. Now going on, the Democrat Adam suggested that mass surveillance wasn't some chilly, slippery slide. Come on, guys, don't get all conspiratorial. It's

not a slippery slide. In fact, he says, it's a good thing. He says, quote, it blows my mind how much we have not embraced technology. And part of that is because they're afraid anything technology. They think, Oh, it's a boogey man. It's big brother watching you, he told Politico. No big brothers protecting you. Albert fox Cohn, the head of Surveillance Technology Oversight Project, responded by warning that facial recognition technology would be weaponized to crack down on every

aspect of descent in the city. That's how tools are. Tools are just tools. Tools can be used for good and tools can be used for bad. It depends on who holds them. A screwdriver I use all the time. Screw driver can help you fix your car, can prise something open, or you could stab someone with a screw driver. Depends on who holds the screwdriver. Same with a gun. Now, that's why we say it's what's in a man's heart, not in his hand. Now, same with this this technology. Sure,

technology can make our lives more convenient. Yes, technology can help us, but in the wrong hands, it's gonna be used bad. Now we know that the state's the state's main goal is to maintain power, and the only way they can maintain power, especially in the light of this uh, of this age of corruption that we're going into, is to control everything. So we do not want to give

them that power. Civil liberties advocates have warned that making facial recognition technology ubiquitous could lead to quote a Minority Reports style society where everyone, whether they have a criminal record or not, is tracked everywhere they go. Of course in China they do this. Of course in China they use this technology as a form of permission slip to decide whether citizens are allowed to even get online with

their Social credit score system. Now the last piece, of course, as the digital dollar, the c B dcs that are coming, and those are coming fast, and that will be the last piece because now they can tie that in with the surveillance. Oh this guy, he's not supposed to be be on that side of town, So now he can't use his money to buy a bus ticket, or he can't

use it to buy food, or he can't whatever. They want to surveill you, surveil you with the money, surveil you with the technology and then they want to control you. Now it's not me saying it, this is Mayor Eric Adams of New York City saying big Brother is here to protect you because you feel unsafe. If they wanted to protect this, they would they would just use the laws that are already there. All right, If you're just

tuning in, you're listening to the markma Show. We're talking about the decentralized revolution, the way the world is swinging from a pendulum from centralization back to decentralization. And we're looking at the biggest headlines of the week in politics, finance, and technology that show us that's happening so you can navigate it better. I'll be back with more in a minute, talking about the revolution, the economy, inflation, and more. You don't want to miss It'll be right back in a minute.

Don't go away, all right, Welcome back. If you just tune in, you're listening to the Mark Moa Show talking about the decentralized revolution. Each and every week. Of course, as we look at through the londs of politics, finance, and technology, and I'm bringing to you some of the latest breaking news that happened this week. And it's been a busy week, of course, uh, the last week of

the year, but it's not slowing it down. Now, look, I get a lot of this news is scary, right, I get it, um, And and it is all right. I mean, they're telling you, The mayor of New York City is telling you they want to surveil you so they can protect you. We they're rushing through the digital dollars. Um. And now they're admitting that they're using psychological operations against us. They're admitting it that they admit that they lie to us to push their agenda. They censor us, the control

what we read, control what we say. And it's scary. I get it now. Um. These are big problems, and big problems create big solutions and big opportunities. Now, this is one of the biggest opportunities that I see three, not just for us to make a bunch of money, but also for us to push back on this agenda. So I'm calling it the parallel protocol. Now you might have heard of parallel economies. It's a word that's being used a lot more. It's the way that the USSR

was collapsed. And we do that by creating our own parallel world. We focus our energy on building the new and so I'm gonna have a three day live virtual event. I haven't done this before. Three full days. I'm gonna bring on some of the best speakers uh and experts in these areas to show you how to build wealth fast in this new parallel economy. Build it, grow it,

keep it protected, and preserve freedom. All right, So just go to go dot one, Mark Moss dot com, Go dot one, Mark Moss dot com, slash radio, Go dot one, Mark Moss dot com, slash radio if you want to check that out. Three days live virtual evamp. We are going to talk about this parallel economy, how you can build, grow, protect your wealth and that all right. Now, some more stories. Like I said, they are admitting psychological operations against us. As a matter of fact, there's a new term that's

been coined. Cathy Wogan, the executive producer of Consortium News coin this term called us psi op or what she's calling uh psi op psy op chrissy like a democracy, but it's a psyop. Criscy m sounds kind of scary. Now. Psychological operations, or psy ops, are operations to convey selected information and indicators to audiences to influence their emotions, motives, and objective reasoning, and ultimately the behavior of governments, organizations, groups,

and individuals. The purpose of United States psychological operations is to induce or reinforce behavior perceived to be favorable to US objectives. That's according to Wikipedia. Now, if you think this is fake news, or if they think this is some conspiracy, you've been paying attention. They've been doing this for a long time. That's from Wikipedia. We have here that William Casey was the CIA director under Ronald Reagan. He said, quote, we'll know our disinformation program is complete

when everything the American public believes is false. When everything the American public believes is false, Thus, the American people are continuously subject to a number of psychological operations otherwise known as you know, the news, the nightly news. It's funny. I was talking to somebody from China and they were like, why does everybody in America watch the news? Like I

don't know, man, that's how people get the news. And they're like they're so amazed, Like I'm like, why do you why do you think that's so weird that people watch the news just like well, in China, we all know that the news is just propaganda. Nobody watches it, pays attention, it takes it seriously, what everybody in America does.

And so that's called the news. The U S intelligent officials feed journalists disinformation to create a false narrative that's intended to mislead the public and cover up what is actually taking place. Now we know this for a fact because they've told us so. Mark Zuckerberg told us so. He went on Joe Rogan and told us so. He said, the FBI told them to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story because it was Russian disinformation. Now now every mainstream

outlet has confirmed it. It's a real story. It's not Russian disinformation. And they knew that at the time, but they did anyway. They lied to create a false narrative. We also call it gas lighting. Hey, what you see, what you think? What you hear? That's not true. It's not true. It's not true. Now we can see this happening on and on and on. I mean, this has been going on for a long time. The American people were led to believe for years of the United States

was winning in Vietnam when it was actually losing. Now this is not my opinion. The pent and Gone papers actually proved this, improved it. We know that there's been all types of fake stories. We know that we were led into um Iraq under this whole weapons of mass destruction narrative that was all completely false, fabricated. We know that now it led us, you know, into this this giant war. Um You know, the people are being fooled

about Ukraine right now. Lad to believe that this unprovoked Russian leader, you know, he started this war for no reason. But the war actually started after the US led coup in Kiev led Russian speakers in don bast to declare independence, after which the coup government military attacked them. All kinds of facts have been removed, all right, Russia's proposed treaties with the US and NATA last December that would have

prevented Russia the intervention in Ukraine. All of that we have in sen there was an article written titled how

you US flooded the world with psyops? And in this Robert Perry um said quote Newly the classified documents from the Reagan Presidential Library help explain how the US government developed a sophisticated psychological operations capabilities that over the past three decades have created an alternative reality both for people in targeted countries and for American citizens to quiet dissent at home. So it's something that's been going on for a long time, not just in China but in the

United States. Now I'm putting this under the revolution category because people are now waking up to this, People are pushing back on this, and it's coming to an end. And we can see they've been doing this in China out in the open for a really long time, and it's really coming to an end. And so China had this zero COVID policy, it's got massive pushback, massive revolution around that, and now the government was forced to stand

down and end their zero COVID policy. But along with that they also in the crackdown on COVID policy criticism, and so now protesters and public health experts are now able to actually talk or criticize about these programs. It was a big deal. Of course, China has been doing massive psychological operations psyops on this to to control people. But it all broke loose when people in China saw other people at the World Cup in attendance without masks.

That's the thing they can only control you so long. But once people can move into the truth, everyone goes, wait, wait a minute, that's the truth. You've been telling us this whole time, that we're gonna die if we take our mask off. But look over there, they're not dying. And of course this is the battle. Now. The Biden administration wants to censor people who oppose gender transitions for children, and the next step of quote misinformation censorship. Now they

want to attempt to silence any debate about mutilating children. Now, of course this is from you know, the Biden's Health and Human Services Assistant Secretary Rachel Levine, who's a man. Um This maybe shouldn't go onto YouTube, Probably get my

YouTube channel ban for that. Biden's Health and Human Service Assistant Secretary Rachel Levine is a man, has a mental health disorder, and they're running the Health and Human Services And now they want to use labeled this as misinformation so they can censor you sins or any type of dissent, any type of conversation about this. But again, the truth is found in open and honest discussion, not in censorship. The truth cannot be found in censorship, only an honest

discussion but it's the revolution that's happening. People are waking up to it. China, which has the great Firewall of China that can sensor everything, has lost control and we're losing control and we need to push back now. Like I said, we can do this and it the greatest opportunity we have and what I'm calling the parallel economy,

and I'm having a three D event called Parallel Protocol. Well, I'm gonna teach you how this new parallel economy is being built, how it's the biggest opportunity to build wealth right now, and build wealth while you're um pushing back against these woke narratives and uh bringing more freedom for future generations. Go to go dot one, Markmas dot com, Go dot one, Mark Moas dot com, slash Radio to find out about this three D event I'm having Go dot one Markmas dot com slash Radio. And by the way,

you're listening to the Mark Mos Show. We're talking about how the decentralized revolution is happening right now. I got a lot more of the big news stories this week to cover. When I get back, don't go away, We're back, all right, Welcome back. You're listening to the Mark mo Show. We're talking about the decentralized revolution, the way the world is changing. Of course, as we look at through the lens of politics, finance, and technology. If you've missed any

of this, don't worry. I got your back. You can follow. You can watch me and listen to me on my YouTube channel, Market Disruptors go there. You can watch ease, or you can find me on any of your favorite

podcast players. Just search Mark Moss Show on iHeart Radio app or Apple Podcast wherever you want and you can find them all archive there all right now, Um, as we continue to look at this, like I said, through the lens of politics, finance, technology, we can see that things are changing fast and we can see it happening in the economy. The economy is rapidly transitioning right before very eyes. I like to say that the world we're going into is not the same as the world we're

leaving behind. And so if you're still looking at the economy, you're still looking at the markets and your finances and your retirement accounts in your house, your real estate, in the lens of how things have been, you know, the last seventy eight years, and you look at how it's been and then try to go, well, that's how it's going to continue to be. You're gonna be wrong. You're

gonna be severely disappointed. You're gonna be ill equipped to handle what's happening because the world we're going into is not the same now. If you went back further than eighty years, maybe you'd get a little bit of a glimpse, go, you know, nineteen thirties and forties, maybe you'll see what

we're going into. But things are are changing rapidly. I did a big video on my YouTube channel, the Mark Moss YouTube channel, talking about Realist the real estate market, and I really broke down a lot of data in the real estate market. And one of the things that I tried to highlight for you is that there is

no such thing as the real estate market. Instead, there's thousands of real estate markets broken down by size, type, location, all these things, and what we can really see is a difference between um new homes and existing homes, for example. But ultimately, what it comes down to, like always, all prices come down to supply and demand, and you have to understand those two metrics in your exact area. So if you want to know should you sell your house,

should you buy a house, should you wait? Whatever you wanna do. You have to understand supply and demand for your area. Now, in my YouTube video, I talked about a bunch of different areas, and then everyone, you know, I got hunt. I don't know, probably a thousand comments on that. You what about this area? What about this area? What about this area? I'm like, look, man, I can't look up. I mean, how many tens of thousands of cities there are in the United States. But I gave

you the metrics. Just look up for yourself and understand supply and demand. And so a couple of things we can see in supply demand. This week we saw a new story come out that the US pending home sales crash by the most on record. What does that mean pending home sales the amount of homes that are going up for sell. The supply went down by the most on record. So demand has fallen because you know, people

feel broke, the Feds crushed their retirement accounts. You know, mortgage rates have gone up, so the demand has fallen, but the supply of homes has also fallen. Depending home sales crashs by most on record. So even though demands coming down, the supplies coming down even faster. It's the sixth straight month of pending home sale declines and twelve of the last thirteen months. On a year over your basis, pending home sales collapsed thirty eight point six percent, the

largest annual drop ever ever. Now, penning sales fell in all four regions in the month, led by the Northeast and the Midwest. And so demand may be coming down, but supply is coming down. What else is driving supply and demand? Well, another article came out this week which also kind of echoed what I was talking about in that video, which is the blue state exodus continues. Now, there's been this great migration I've been talking about for

a long time where baby boomers are retiring. They want to leave the snow, the cold, the McMansions, and they want to move to somewhere where it's warm and it's cheap. Um, it's sunny right now. That's been going on for a while. But now under the under the after the pandemic, we have a whole new set of metrics. And this is really about blue states. It's about pro freedom, it's about pro business, it's about taxes, and that is driving. So if you find yourself in one of these states, you

should be paying attention. The latest census data shows that California is the biggest losing state. More people left California than anywhere, and Florida is the biggest gaining state. More people moved to Florida than anywhere. Texas and Florida make up fiercent of the US population, but accounted for seventy percent of its population growth. Let me say that again. Texas and Florida are fifteen percent of the entire US population,

but accounted for seventy percent of the population growth. The exodus from progressive led states hasn't slowed even as COVID lockdowns eased. California had three three thousand people leave. New York had three hundred thousand people leave. Illinois had a hundred and forty one thousand people leave. Those three states lost the most. California, New York, Illinois, Um New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Oregon, Massachusetts, Minnesota,

Louisiana were also big losers. Where were they going? Florida got the most over three hundred thousand, followed by Texas two thirty, North Carolina hundred thousand, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, and Arizona. Uh, we're the big winners. Now. Texas ranked the first and overall population growth four hundred and seventy thousand, followed by Florida four sixteen, so about the same. Now, there's a lot of reasons why they're leaving these states. A lot of it is public disorder and cities such

as Seattle, Portland's, and Denver. People are leaving because public disorder, homelessness, violent crimes, things like that. Nobody I don't care what side of the political ail you're on. I try not to be on either side. I'm for more freedom and less government. I don't know what parties for that anymore. So I'm not trying to put labels on myself. And it doesn't really matter where you're at. Nobody wants to live in a state where homeless people are camped on

sidewalks doing you know, drugs in the open public. Nobody wants to have their kids around that. So of course they're leaving, which, of course Seattle, Portland, Denver are the worst, which, of course, Seattle has the worst performing real estate market in the whole nation. They're down over ten percent worse than the two eight grade financial cray actual. Now, democratic governors, they can't blame bad weather. We have the consciens being

California and Florida. Governor Gavin Newsom of California in the summer, he ran ads on TV in Florida urging residents come join us in California, where we still believe in freedom. He said, he was running ads on TV to Florida, saying, come to California, where we choose freedom. But Florida has no income tax, California has the highest. Florida has private school choice program. California doesn't let you choose where you send their kids at school. Florida doesn't smother businesses of

the regulations California does. Florida governor around the Santas, he doesn't have to run ads. In progressive states, nobody wants to live there. Progressive states economies are still suffering the lingering impact of excessive government lockdowns. But they're bigger problem now is their political leaders can tinue to impose heavy taxes, costly regulations and mandates that drive the middle class to other states. And we can see that it's even bigger than that. And so this is This is where I

get excited. Competition. Competition is gives us better service, products and prices, which is why the fifty states need to be separated. It allows competition. And so California wants to have the highest taxes in the nation, fine, more people leave there. Now we have states rushing to eliminate state taxes.

Mississippi could become the nation's tenth state to eliminate personal income tax the tenth one um other ones, other states saying they want to go to zero taxes West Virginia, Arkansas, Iowa, Georgia, North Dakota, Utah, and even maybe Wisconsin. Nine states right now don't have personal income taxes Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming. Mississippi probably the

tenth one to join. They already have a flat tax, meaning regardless of how much money you make, there's a flat tax. And so as these people are leaving high tax states California, New York, I'm talking to you and moving to low tax states Florida and Texas with none. Other states are like, well, shoot, we'll lower the tax too, And that is how we change the world. We vote with our feet, we vote with our money, and that's

how we change the world.
