Life Has Never Been Better but Also Devolving

Some of these things are a little more subtle and some of them are much more apparent, and those are some of the things that I want to talk about today. We got a big, big, big, big show to talk about. Of course, it all comes down to the money, which of course bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are leading that revolution. But

really it's the intersection between politics, finance, and technology. It's the convergence of those three things that's the catalyst for all the change that we're seeing in the world right now. And I think if if if you look, if you know what you're looking for, you're paying attention, you can see that, Um, it's not just the world that's changing, it's it's uh, I mean, that's changing for the better,

but it's also changing for the worst. It's like this is the best of times and this is the worst of times at the same time. And so um. On one hand, life has never been better, right, Life expectancy is up, and we have wealth. I mean, the poorest person in the United States today is richer than the richest person in the world a hundred years ago. And so we have massive wealth, massive prosperity. Things are great. We have computer phones in our pocket that can tell

us anything in the world. We can do zoom and chat with anybody from anywhere in the world instantly. We can hop on a plane and flying in where we want. So things have never been better. But at the same time, things are rapidly d evolving. I recently did a talk at my live event that just happened. It was the first week of April called Market Disruptors Live, where we

we have a conference. We get together and bring about five hundred people together, bring about fifteen different speakers from kind of different areas to talk about, um, what's going on in the world, and more importantly, how we to navigate through that, how we want to survive and thrive really as this world changes. And the it was my

conference I hosted it. I had the speakers there, But I also gave a keynote presentation while I was there, and the name would actually say the title of my presentation was d evolution re evolution, And so, Um, what we're seeing is that although things have never been better, we're starting to d evil. Things are starting to move backwards at a very rapid rate. However, I see that there's re evolution that will happen here shortly once we

get through this transition. I know a lot of times people accuse me of being this um doomsdayre because I report the news and the news is mostly bad and it's and it is bad. However, Um, one of my friends who had recently did an interview with Tucker Max, he calls it Dumer optimism. So, yes, there's doom in front of us and we're witnessing them, but there's massive hope and optimism and hope hope of prosperity on the

other side, which I believe in. But like I said, d evolution is here all around us, and and I think it's I was explained to somebody in my office earlier today, Um, the implications that aren't commonly seen, and so what do I mean by that? So we're de evolving. We're seeing the money breaking down, which of course bitcoin is here to fix, and which is why we say bitcoin fixes that. And by that I mean pretty much everything,

because everything really revolves around the money. So when the money supply breaks down, everything breaks down, including society breaks down. So I want to take a look at some of that. Um, we'll take a look at that. We'll look at some stats. I have some numbers I want to show you explaining how that's working. And I want to show you how, um, it's affecting things that you wouldn't necessarily think of, Like I said, inside society. We'll look at some of the

unfortunate news that's happened this week. Unfortunately, some bad things have happened inside the United States, and uh, I believe it or not, it could be traced back to society breaking down. Society breaking down because of the money. And then I want to talk about some statements that have come out of the World I MAC Forum. They've been meeting this week over in Davos, Switzerland, the Davos man

as they're called. These are the the the so called the self appointed elites UM that fly on their private jets and then want to tell us that we need to cut back on energy to save the world. When they fly on their private jets, I say so called elites. They like to call themselves elites. Um, they're not elite. I wouldn't hire any of them to work in my business, and I doubt either of you would as well. But they are, I guess they're pretty elite and and navigating

through the political landscape and grifting as we can say. Um. So, anyway, there's a couple of quotes that I have prepared for you that I want to I want to tell you, and it is shocking. And when I say shocking, I mean that they are saying the quiet part, the quiet part meaning the part that is not supposed to be spoken of, the part that we've kind of assumed but

they haven't said. But now they're saying it. And to be honest, scares me because it's one thing if they're hiding it and lying about it, but when they come out and openly say it and trying to sell to us as a good thing, it's a problem. Let's just say they want you to be poor, and then we're gonna take a look at some of the big, big things that are going in the States in the United

States right now and and affecting the world. Um that that the world is moving on that again, the signs of the money breaking down, society breaking down, and uh, it leads to lots of unintended consequences. And we'll discuss all of that and more in this big show that I have planned for you. You listen to the Mark Moa show talking about the intersection of politics, finance, and technology. We're talking about bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and the decentralized revolution. Is

all three of these things converge. The world is changing, So I think it's no surprise that we have massive inflation all over the world. Massive inflation. Now, what is inflation? I want to kind of break this down this nuance for you just a little bit before we dig into this. And of course, yes, bitcoin fixes this, so bear with me. We'll bring it all back home for you. But inflation, so, um, you hear all over the news inflations, you know, forty

year highs CPI consumer price index prices, prices, prices. In my opinion, and not just my opinion, per the Austrian school of economics, inflation isn't prices going up. Inflation is increasing the money supply. When the money supply increases, then it results in prices going up. So prices going up are the result of inflation of the monetary supply increasing. Um. But for intensive purposes, most people consider inflation prices going up.

So then you have consumer price inflation that's the price of your food, your energy, your cars, things like that. And then you have asset price inflation. So assets, I don't have to tell you what this are obviously stocks, um, real estate, bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, etcetera, and so um economists want to break those two things separately. They want to say, well, there's asset price inflation, but that's not really uh um, that's not really inflation, right. Inflation is consumer price inflation.

But I think that's um, I'll just call it out. I think it's stupid to try to um differentiate that because let's say that asset price inflation is homes going up. So let let me let me, let me break this down. I spoke at a conference in January Rebel Capitalist, my good friend George Gammon's conference, and I was there. I got to share the stage with Ron Paul, which was amazing. He started the in the FED movement I gave a talk titled UM in the fed To, kind of as

a nod to Ron Paul. But I was also there with with with a well known economist, somebody that I respect, and somebody who's super smart, smarter than he's probably forgot more than I'll ever know, Richard Warren, Professor Richard Warner. And he is a I mean, he's an academic, he is a consultant. He's at one of the most influential educated people when it comes to central bank planning, in central bank policies and things like that. He gave a talk about UM, how banks are centralizing and how we

need to decentralize the banks. I'm not gonna go deep into that UM, but he talked about how in two thousand and eight, through the Great Financial Crash and two thousand and twenty, how all this money creation happened and it didn't cause inflation. And uh, much respect to him, Like I said, he's probably forgotten more than I'll ever know. But I had to call him out on stage in front of everybody, and I'll tell you what he said in a second, and he'll be surprised what his response was.

But it really goes back into what I'm talking about this differentiation and how they're really gas lightiness. Now, I do want to, like I said, we're gonna talk about how this inflation, these prices going up are breaking down society, what the societal impacts of that are, and of course we'll bring it back to of course, yes, bitcoin fixes that now one of the best ways to get bitcoin. And a lot of people are asking me right now is a time? Is now a good time to get

into bitcoin? Because bitcoin is down It's about thirty dollars right now, which I believe is below the fair market value, which we're gonna talk about a little bit later, um, And so a lot of people want to know, is now the right time to buy? And I would just say that, you know, we don't know. I think it's below fair market value right now. I think it's a great opportunity to buy in that being said, could it go down more? Well, it's possible. Right if you listen

to the Mark Ma Show. I'm gonna be back with more in a second, So do not go away, all right, welcome back. You are listening to the Mark Ma Show, where we discuss the world changing through the three converging forces of politics. Finance and technology. Of course that's being led by bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is changing the world and it is those things, UM. And we're witnessing what I'm calling the decentralized revolution, and today we're talking about

specifically UM. Yes, bitcoin fixes that, whatever that is, it's everything. And so really what we're talking about is how society right now is um the best of times and the worst of times. It's breaking down in a lot of ways that people don't understand. And it's all related back to the money. UM. A lot of times, you know, people want to know, like how do I secure my bitcoin or whatever? What's the price going to be next week? I'd like to talk about why, why do we need it?

Why do we even care? Boo? Can it fix? Right? And so that's what we're talking about. So I was talking about inflation UM. A lot of times, most people, including the news and the mainstream economists, talk about inflation being prices going up, UM. But price it's it's inflation is really the money supply going up. When the money supply goes up, then prices go up. And I was

on a on this conference. I was telling you before the break, I was at this conference with Um, a well known global economist, and he said that in two thousand and eight, when the central banks created all this money, it didn't cause inflation. I said, excuse me, can I ask a question? I was on the panel, I said them, if it didn't cause inflation, then why is real estate at all time eyes? Why stock market all time eyes? Why it's bitcoin al time eyes? Why it's gold al

time eyes? Why is everything at all time eyes? If there was no inflation, he said, oh, well, that was asset price inflation. There was no consumer price inflation. And so what I'm my point is that these economists are splitting hairs because look, if I'm if if I'm a consumer and I buy a home and that home went up in value, isn't that consumer price inflation? And at the end of the day, whether it's my stocks going up, my home going up, or my steak and milk going up,

it's all prices going up. To me, it's more expensive to buy the stock, it's more expensive by the house, is more expensive to buy my food. Whatever does it makes kind of kind of ridiculous, and so Um through the distortion of the money supply by them creating arbitrarily creating more money. It creates inflation, prices going up, right, and we know this, we can see that, but but a lot of people haven't really thought through what the implicate implications of that are. So let me give you

a couple. So, for example, when prices go up, it makes things more expensive. That's a given right, but have you thought through what that means? So a lot of times people think the value of my home went up, Well, it didn't really go up. The value of your dollars went down. So it takes more dollars to buy those things. Did the value of your used car go up? No, it just takes more dollars to buy those things. Did the value of your stake go up to the value

of your milk up? Note, it just takes more dollars to buy those things. But what does that mean? So I can give you an example. So, for example, in um so gold had been money for five thousand years,

for for basically all of human recent history. Um in nineteen seventy one we entered into an experimental phase where we got off of gold being money and now we have this just fake, arbitrary fiat money system through fifty years into this experiment, So um, if we want to look at these numbers of what happened since this experiment started, we have to go back to nine seventy one or nineteen seventies a good measure. So in nineteen seventy it would take two point three years of your life to

save up for the house. For a house an average, the average house in the United States today, it takes seven years of your life. That's what does that mean? Because the central bankers have printed a bunch of money to enrich themselves and their buddies, they've literally stolen five years of your life. Of your time, that means that that's five years that you could have put yourself through college.

That's five years you could have spent time with your kids, making sure your kids grew up in a good family. That's five years you could have spent improving yourself your own education to make a better life for you and your family. That's five years of your life that you could have spent relaxing on the beach. But instead now you have to spend that working so you can afford the average home. Because the central bankers created more money so they can enrich themselves. But that's that's easy to

understand just the inflation in March alone. I kind of broke this down in the previous show. Um, just the just the inflation inflation we saw in March eight. What does that mean? Well, that means that it's about three four dollars more expensive for the average person to maintain their standard of living. What does that mean? So that means to have the exact same standard of living you

needed the month before, it now costs you. So if you make thirty two dollars an hour, that means you have to work an extra ten hours in that month just to have the exact same lifestyle that you've had before. Ten hours in a month at thirty two bucks an hour. If you make fifteen bucks an hour, double it and you can you can do the math froom there. So if you make fifteen bucks an hour, or let's just

stick with thirty bucks ten ten hours. So now if you work ten extra hours, those ten extra hours in a month that I could be with my kids playing, or I could be at college taking classes, or I could be starting a side business, but instead I have to work just to have the exact same lifestyle that had before. So what does that mean for society? Well, a couple of things. So what we can see is that society has broken down, and we can see this

very clearly. And I don't want to get into, uh into deep into the weeds on this, but this week we had unfortunately, tragic, tragic news um of gun violence in Texas. And so there was a shooting at a school, which is horrible. Um, it's unthinkable. I'm a father of kids. I couldn't imagine that happening at my kids school. Um. But why does this happen now? I grew up in Texas, um until I was in high school. And when I was growing up as a kid in Texas going to school,

kids would bring guns to school. Like in Texas, you drove, you know, you drove around your pickup truck with guns in the back window. And they would bring their guns to school and after school they'd go hunting. It happened all the way through the two thousands, had happened, but there was no shootings. So why is there now, Well, it's because society is breaking down. Well why is society breaking down? Let's go back to the money. Let's go back to the inflation. So in nine we saw um

less um about fort of couples. Families had to have both people working to achieve the family dream, the American dream. Today, over eight of families have two people working. So what does that mean. That means the families are breaking down. That means as parents, instead of one parent being home with the kids, they're both gone. Who's raising the kids Nobody? That's a problem. If we go back to seventy we could see that the incarceration rate there was two hundred

for every one hundred thousand people incarcerated. Today it's over a thousand. That's a five hundred percent increase in the incarceration rate. What does that mean is that of kids growing up with their parents, most mostly their dads, now they're in prison. Um. What about the divorce rate? We can see the divorce rate has completely skyrocketed, So now instead of kids growing up with their parents, they're growing up a single family. What about unwed mothers? We can

see that. Um, in nineteen seventy, there was less than five percent of white kids born born and thirty percent of black kids. Today, well, actually as of two thousand eight is the last year I got the data, that the white families went from five to thirty percent and the black families went from thirty to eighty per cent being born with mothers. So what does that all mean. It goes back to a breakdown in society. We have, obesity has skyrocketed, and yes, fixing the money can fix this.

And that's why I want to show these dates and show these numbers, because you can see when we went into this monetary experiment is when things went off the rails. UM. I'm wanna, I wanna tie this all back together. I have a lot more to cover. I want to cover UM, what they're saying out loud that they want you to be poor, and why they want you to be poor, and why you should be okay with it. And then I want to bring up bring it back to a couple of UM stories that we saw this week that

illustrate this um and it's pretty shocking for me. I'm gonna be back with that and more. You listen to the Markma Show talking about politics, finance, and technology, we're talking about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and this decentralized revolution that we're witnessing. We're talking about it in the lens of current issues, so we can demonstrate how things can be fixed. Back with that and more, in a minute, So don't go away, all right, Welcome back. You are listening to

the Markmas Show. We're talking about politics, technology, we're talking about finance, we're talking about money, and really what are we talking about. We're talking about bitcoin. We're talking about cryptocurrencies, and we are talking about the decentralized revolution that we're living through, that we're witnessing. And that's why the world seems like it's all changing, because it is. We're seeing the last dying grasps of the old system trying to

hold on to power as the new system is emerging. Now. I've been talking about how when we say in bitcoin, bitcoin fixes that, which means everything, and we say everything because pretty much every problem can be traced back to

the money. I'd like to think of it like, um, if you saw this giant oak tree, and this oak tree had i don't know, call it ten thousand leaves, and every leave on that tree was a problem that we had, and we could sit there and pick one leave at a time and discuss each problem and what about this problem, what about this problem, more about this problem. But at the if we chase those leaves, they go back two branches and those branches go back to a trunk,

and at the base is the root. That's the root, cause, that's the root of the problem. What sits there at that route is the money. It's the money printer. It's the ability for the Federal Reserve to print money, distorting the markets, stealing your life, and causing all types of distortions. So um, I kind of broke down some stats of how it's breaking down society with dual incomes, working incarceration rate, high, divorce rate high on when mother's high, obesity, health problems.

So why why obesity hasn't gone off the complete rails. If you go back and look at pictures of like people at the beach or walking around and shopping centers in pre seventies, everybody was fit, everybody looked good. Why is obesity gone so high? Well because of the money. What do you mean because of the money. Well, because of everything getting more expensive. They've they've tried to get our food cheaper and cheaper and cheaper to offset that.

And so now instead of eating good quality food like steak, like milk, like whole bread, things like that, instead we're eating stuff out of a box, reading processed food, reading fast food, and so the food system. Well, one of my favorite economists, a Safety and a Moose. He wrote the book The Bitcoin Standard and now the new book The Fiat Standard. He says, Fiat money, fake money, Fiat food,

fake food. And so what we've seen is a breakdown in our food system in order to keep prices low to offset this inflation that we've seen, and all that's done is caused massive health problems. Now, Um, the way that things work is that if I wanted to solve the problem is I would want first identify a problem, and then two I would look at what went wrong, and then I would try to fix that. Right, So, um, if I crashed my car, I would say, well, what happened? Well,

you were distracted looking at your phone. Um, okay, well how could we fix that because you've driven, you've driven fine, you know, all these years, and then you crashed your car while you were looking at your phone. Okay, well then the problem is the phone. Let's not look at that phone anymore. Right, that'd be one way to do that. Um, you want to look at what went wrong, and so you wouldn't just say well, let's just not drive anymore.

Like that's probably not an answer, let's just take away cars, And that's not really an answer. Um, why don't we say, let's just go back and see what went wrong? And so you're looking for bright spots and so what has gone wrong in society? Where did we go off the rails? Well, it all traces back to one when we came off

the gold standard. And again, I know it's a sensitive subject and I don't want to dig in too deep into it, but I just want to illustrate how the money problem the I want to illustrate the damage that the money, this fake monetary experiment has caused because people just don't realize this. And so, you know, unfortunately back to you know this the school incident, this match shooting that happened this this week, which is historically and it's just tragic. Um. But why is it there was only Um?

Why why is it that there was no school shootings before like three So if we go back and study history from eighteen hundred to nineteen sixty, there was basically no school shootings. There was a cup three instances where one person just killed another person. But why is it that there was nothing for those hundred and sixty years? And why is that there was no really shootings with

any frequency until nineteen three. What what happened? It looks like kids born after nineteen seventy five is where the problems really started, and it got really worse for kids born at from after. So what was it? What changed? Like I said, when I was a kid growing up in Texas, people drove to school with their guns. They were there. It wasn't a problem. So if we look at shootings defined us three or more people, we can

just see how rare, rare it was. Um Like I said, previous you know, the seventies, we didn't see that at all, but now it seems to be happening all the time. So then we'd want to go, well, what changed? Because people always took guns to school? But what has changed since then? As matter fact, we can see how bad this has become. We can see that in seventeen there

was thirty one sixty, so that's pretty bad. We've gone from thirty, thirty, thirty forty and now sixty so one has doubled the numbers when we were pretty flat at eighteen and nineteen. So what's happened since then? Well, we can look at a lot of things, So we can look at again back to the health problem. So because our food is so bad, we're basically sitting our kids down in the morning, feeding them bowls of sugar, and then we're sending to school to make them sit there.

And then then those kids are restless. And because those kids are restless, and they get diagnosed and they get put on riddling, they get put on adderall. And so now we're addicting kids to drugs from the time their little kids and they're growing up like that we've come and and that's just only the start of it. So these these drugs that kids are taking these days have

become a big problem. And I'm not gonna dig super super deep into the science behind that, but it just go look at the data that shows what happens to people when they take these types of drugs for a long period of time. What else, Well, we've broken down um all relation to truth. So today you can be anything you want. You can be um whatever sex, So there's no such thing as sex is anymore. Um, you can be whatever you want. There's no such thing as

truth too. Plus two isn't four anymore, math is racist, etcetera. And so now people have lost an anchor they don't know where to turn, they don't have they don't have families anymore. They're eating a bunch of they're being poisoned by their food, they're taking all types of drugs. I mean, then you add in really into the nineties where you really the music and the movies really started to turn. You've got violence in video games, and it's not just

one thing, it's all these things. We can see pulled up this chart from that the United States is leading the world in substance abuse, leading the world. Now, uh, you know, there's also an increase in bullying, at least in reported bullying. But why is there. Why is that? Well, I would imagine kids growing up without fathers or families for that matter, probably have low self esteem, so they're more susceptible to it. And then people lowest self esteem

also want to lash out and maybe bullying. Right, So all these problems all boil back down to this. But s SR eyes riddled in lack of community socialization, lack of church purpose for young men, you know, no purpose for young men, family breakdown, social media isolation over the last two years, lack of social institutions, you know, future looking, bleak prices are so high. People can't even you know, kids future looks bleak. They don't know how they're gonna

be able to afford a home. Things like that, And what do you think happens? What do you think happens? And so we we can go back and try to look at every single symptom, but we need to get to the root of the cause. So we could certainly just you know, if we had a magic wand, which we don't, but imagine if we had a magic wand and we could just magically make um guns illegal and just get rid of them. In the United States. Well, okay, that's fine, but like in Mexico, they're illegal. But yet

you still have mass shootings everywhere. Um, so that's one problem. Second of all, Um, it's not what's in a man's heart, I'm sorry, in a hand, it's what's in his heart. So they could easily drive a car through a crowd. Um. You can see across the world there's mass stabbing incidents. As a matter of fact, there was a big one I was looking at this morning where over thirty people died in a stabbing accident. Um, you could walk in a in a crowd of room with them with a

molotov cocktail. You can go to the hardware store and make good stuff to make pipe bombs. And so we need to get back to the problem. The root of the problem, and the root of the problem is the money supply. It's creating all these distortions in the market and it's just the pharmaceutical companies, et cetera. So anyway, hopefully that makes a case. And so bitcoin takes away their ability to print unlimited amounts of money. It fixes

that problem. Um, and there's even bigger problems. So jumping out of that subject and into the bigger ones, which is like I said, what these elite people at Davos are saying this week, saying the quiet part out loud and wait until you hear what they are saying, because it's insane. And yes, bitcoin will fix that as well. I'm gonnae be back with that and more in a minute.

You're listening to the Mark mo Show talking about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and the decentralized revolution, talking about the intersection of politics, technology and finance, so we can understand what's going on in the world, um, where it's going, and how we can survive that. So'll be back with that and more in a minute. Don't go away, all right, welcome back. You are listening to the Mark mo Show, and we're talking about we talked about each and every week.

Which is the decentralized revolution, which is bitcoin, which is cryptocurrencies, which is the intersection that I like to focus on, politics, technology, and finance. You have to look at all three of them to bring context to what's going on in the world. And I know a lot of times we're looking at surface level issues and we don't take the time to really think this through, to really chase it back down

to the root cause of the problem. But if we want to be successful, if we want to really fix things, that we have to do and and unfortunately, our society has gotten into this short term mentality where we want to treat symptoms instead of cure things. And unfortunately, um there's no easy fix, and everybody wants to easy fix and that's just a problem. But UM, I was explaining how society is breaking down because it's the money breaking down.

Hopefully that made sense to you. And now I want to talk about some of the things this week we've seen that the World Economic Forum they've been meeting and uh, things have been getting bad. When when I say things have been getting bad, I mean I talked about the societal problems. I talked about the inflation problems, prices getting so high. Um, But we're at a point now where

it's beyond prices just getting high. So throughout Europe and the United States, we're seeing, um, the price of energy going up, so gas, natural gas of course led by oil et cetera, which then leads to lots of other problems. So natural gas goes so high that now they can't make fertilizer. When they can't make fertilizer, guess what, they can't make food. I mean, we're literally at that point. And the thing that's just crazy crazy for me, I mean,

it's it's it's it's actually very scary for me. Is the transition that our leaders have gone through. So we went from a year ago, year and a half ago that it's not a problem, inflation, prices, energy is not a problem. You think it's a problem, but it's not. Don't worry about it. Then it went to well, you know, it's transitory, it's here, but don't worry about it's gonna we're gonna fix it really soon. Two then it went like, well, actually,

it's kind of a problem. We should do something about it. And now now is the part where I'm really scared, because now what they're saying is that this is the plan, this is the goal. We want you to be poorer and you should be okay with it. That's what they're saying. So what do I mean by that. Well, let's let's talk about this for a second. So, um, in the United States. Well, okay, so globally we have a massive

food problem, like a massive food problem. As a matter of fact, the in the UK they said this week that they expected to be catastrophic. The UN is projecting hundreds of millions of people to starve to death. I mean, this is a this is this is a catastrophic problem that we're having right now. I don't think it's gonna be a big problem in the United States as far as like people starving to death, but it's certainly big

in other parts of the world. I think a lot of people just have this US centric viewpoint, but you really need to look at the world. Um, and that's a big problem. But in the United States, so the rest of Ukraine war is taken about thirty of the wheat out of the global um supply. But even the United States, we're having one of the wheat the worst

wheat crop of in in history. Now, what you may not know is that the government, again because of the money problem, the government prints a bunch of money and does a bunch of stupid stuff with it, like paying farmers not to grow food. Imagine that, So they literally pay farmers to leave parts of their land open so they don't plant it. Now at a time when we're running into a global food supply and even a food supply problem in the United States, wouldn't you think that

we'd want to grow all the food that we can. Well, the farmers certainly think so. And the farmers went and lobbied the Secretary of Agriculture, Tom vill Sack, and they said, hey, Tom, Tom, look, I know we're not planting on this this part of our land, but like maybe we could and maybe we should. We could help out, like we need the food, right so Tom will Sack Um he refused. He refused their request, citing quote a detrimental impact on quote efforts to mitigate

climate change end quote. He said, no, no, don't I know, I know people are starving to death. And I know we're paying you another planet food, but you're not gonna do it because you know the climate. That's what he said. He wanted to say, quote our demat our domestic agriculture industry plays a critical role in the global effort to contain temperature increases under the United States nationally determined Contribution.

So what does that mean? So um, the agriculture energy plays a critical role in to contain temperatures in the United States nationally determined contribution. Let me finish the restaurants. Hey what that means? Which is at the heart of our nation's commitment to the Paris Agreement. So um, President Biden, when he took office the very first day in office, the most important thing he could do on day one was to put the United States back into the Paris Accord.

All right, now, UM, I've done videos breaking down the Paris Cord. I'm not gonna spend a lot of time on that. Um, not the science behind it, but the actual agreement. So um, this to understand that you have done somebody said here, So he said, in order to contain temperatures under the United States nationally determined contribution, contribution being the keyword. So under the Paris Cord, each nation

contributes what they're gonna do. So the United States has already been the leader of the United States has cut its carbon emissions down by thirty percent in the last decade. The United States has which means you pay more for everything in order for us to do that. And that's great, that's a sacrifice you've made. Um But other nations, China hasn't done that, India hasn't done that. So every nation contributes.

What what do I pledge? The United States pledged for the Perisgreement to cut its emissions another Now, if anything, if you know anything, the little the first parts, the easy part, it gets harder and harder. So how do we cut another percent? Okay, but what did what did India commit to? What's their contribution? Well, they agreed not to allow emissions to go up more than the percentage of GDP. So if they can grow their GDP, they can grow their emissions. They're not cutting at all. What

did China commit to? China committed that they would continue to increase their emissions through and then they'll reverse course and lower room. So each nation has contributed, so are the other nations of the world aren't contributing any reduction. As a matter of fact, China has contributed an increase, but the United States has contributed additional reduction. And so they said, nope, you can't. You can't grow more food even though people are gonna start to death because you know,

the world could get a little bit warmer. Um, so they're saying the quiet part allowed. We have a Norwegian finance CEO, Kirsten Brothen, spoke to the World Economic Forum this week and she said, quote, we need to accept that there will be some pain in the process, shortages on energy, inflationary pressures. That pain is actually worth it, because if we don't, there's no economy. You see what they're saying. They're saying, yes, okay, fine, we admit it.

Prices are going to go higher. We get it. People are going to starve to death. We get it. That you won't be able to dry I have your car anymore because it's too expensive. We get it. That car companies are going to go out of business and you're gonna lose your job. We get it. But she said, quote, the pain is actually worth it. Who are they to say that, uh, control over your life? And so This is what I'm talking about, this decentralized revolution. Through this

monetary system that we've had, it's increased centralization. The powers have continued to centralize and get bigger and bigger and bigger, stronger and stronger and stronger. And so while I used to have to deal with the powers in my state

or maybe my country, now it's global. Now. These people are meeting at the World Economic Forum, flying there in their private jets, spending creating more carbon emission in one plane flight than you probably will in your whole year, and they're going to tell you that you need to feel more pain, you need to lose your job, and you need to starve because the pain is actually worth it. Well, I don't think so. I don't think the pain is actually worth it. I don't think we need to go

backwards at all. And we'll talk about that more later, but basically, what we're seeing is that the centralization of power. We're at peak centralization. And so we have these three letter organizations like the World Economic Form and the World Health Organization and the World Trade Organzation and the u N and the I m F and everything telling you what you can and can't do. What you can and can't eat, or even if you can and can't have food.

But as I talked about each and every week, we're witnessing the decentralized revolution money controlling the money supply has enabled them to grow bigger, and bitcoin will take away their ability to do that, which will then decentralize the world. And I'll allow us to take back control of our own very live, sovereign, directing my life as I see fit in the direction that leads to my own ends.

That's the goal and that's what bitcoin is here to fix. Um, you listen to the Markma Show, We're talking about bitcoin, a cryptocurrency, is talking about the decentralized revolution, talking about politics, finance, and technology each and every week. I hope you enjoyed that and you have a new perspective on this. Thanks for listening.
