Ochelli Effect 3-13-2026 Friday with B Pete and Callers

I need to get new communications in and that's going to be something that the only way it's going to work, right is if I pay for it, and that's it. The free ones seem to all suck. I can't seem to find a good one where I can plug in the phone calls, plug in the co host and roll.

But it's Friday night and I want to have some fun, so maybe we can get this done quickly enough and get at least a good hour's worth of fun out of our show until Aaron Franz starts at ten pm Eastern and Uncle the broadcast begins at eleven pm Eastern. Okay, so be Pete. The first experiment I'm gonna do with you. Did you hear the intro when I played it at

the beginning of the show, I did excellent. I want to see if you can hear something else I'm gonna play for you because I got a little bit of audio work, and happily somebody clipped something for me and I was able to turn it into what I wanted to and it is, you know, to me, priceless because I got a couple of audio drops. Okay, so let's see if you can hear these and if you can hear them clearly, and we know the one mission is accomplished,

even at the phone calls are still a hurdle. We'll get over this real quick before we actually get into some show topics. Okay, it's uh, what do we got here? Okay? So I got that and I got that. Now I'm you know, I was gonna set stuff up, but then I was screwing around with this thing for fifteen minutes, actually about twenty five minutes. I was ready at ten, of of course, and at ten of things were going

a little weird. I reset everything, thought it was fine, and then you or I both could not sign into an open source communication tool. That's not supposed to happen. But here we are.

trying to do Korea or Japanese baseball. They can't do it. White guy goes never mind. I don't know, and you wonder how he got that job.

just can't believe y'all had a team. She says, we don't. Really, she says, but you know it's then she starts giving me when you talk to a UK person about anything in the US, yep, it's like talking to a black person about rock and roll. Oh, well, you know black people started that. Well, the UK people are the same way. Oh your baseball just came from our rounders And I said, no, that's softball. Well our cricket, I said, no, you got to bounce the ball to play cricket. Y'all are wussies.

It don't matter that I said, take a ninety yeah, yeah, take a ninety five mile an hour fastball down the pipe. Tell me what you're going to do with it. So we've been dragging each other back and forth.

to be the illustrious anything. I want to work with some different people, get some different rhythms going. I want to improve the show I do with be Pete, and I want to maybe add another co host or two, or maybe give Bepete a new co host and I get a new co host. I don't know. I want to make combinations. Be Pete staying, but I want to make combinations. Maybe you and I stick and you know, we get a different vibe on I don't know, another

day of a week or something. But no matter what, here is how I wish to be introduced from now on.

the last week's show. But on my very first show, the pop up came teal as somebody who stops in on that show every now and then, and she was like kind of confused about who she was talking to. I said a couple of things, and then I got what I got.

that people do in racialist culture. That's just the way it is. So as a you know, somebody who appears to be white, I am half non white for sure, and the US government agreed with that for a very long time. I'm half non white and half lowest possible white, which in the hierarchy chain gives me everything except the melanin pretty much. You know what I mean.

just hey, listen, this is historical fact. On top of that, okay, nobody.

there is not in your bloodstream. That's the only thing. And I'm not sure, but I can't guarantee you they're in there. Otherwise, the whole rest of the world is in Sicilian blood. So his argument would be that that's what made Sicilian special because we were the melting pot before America was invented. Okay, And you know, some by force, some by whatever, some by trade, that all got in there. Now I'm not done because I said Arabs. No, I

didn't get to Arabs yet exactly. Arabs. Arabs are not generally seen as white, are they.

the races. Pretty much. The only like my father had told me when I was three or four years old, the only guarantee I can't give you is that that American Indian over there, because that's what we call Native Americans. The redskin guy, right, or those people. He said, that's the only one I can't guarantee is in there, but I suspect they are too. So the thing is, even if you got all the rest of the world except them, you got it plus all these white people of all sorts.

And we all know that there's different grades of white people. Okay, they're just is and you'll find out if something racial happens and white people start subdividing. Anyways, I'm just saying that Asian, right, African, South American right, Like every continent you can imagine where there are people's shades change a bit, you get a contribution into sicily, and that includes much of the Asian world. You know, there's different Asians, right.

I just remarked earlier today that I heard somebody literally use the word oriental, and I went, wow, that's actually a really destructive and ugly word that people don't even realize was ugly, and they sort of quietly got rid of it. But you know, that had to do with the fact that Asians were seen at one point by some of the world as magical jabbering mystical monkeys. They weren't even people. So you know, that's just the reality

of the Oriental term. But there are many types of Asians, and there's evidence where you can put you know, the Mongolians, you can put the actual Chinese there. You know, where do you think Italians didn't actually invent spaghetti? Think about it? Okay, and that flatbread we're putting pizza on that came from the Middle East. I'm just saying the contribution was there

because of the giant target. I mean, think about the conscripts and the mixed armies of Alexander the Great as they rolled into certain places and then return claiming that they were part of what the Greek army, right, the Greek establishment, Hey, we're coming back for our pay or whatever, et cetera, et cetera. They were eclectic at best. Right, you have the conflict between Sparta and Dorias and then later on Xerxes, you know, which we know was massive.

But also alongside of that, when the conflicts subsided, many a soldier remained where the hell they found themselves, which meant that's a whole Asiatic strain that goes, especially in the Mediterranean area. But there are other areas of stoppage. You have to study the maps. And oh, by the way, don't take the Oliver Stone film per gospel, okay, because

it's wrong all over the place. But even if you want, don't want to argue history, what you can't argue is that there was intermingling of all sorts here, okay, of allegedly different races. If you remember in the movie Alexander though, because it's a good visual is he's got his you know, wild savage wife that he takes as his second wife, right, and she is of that world, so to speak. And

Alexander was fascinated by Asian culture. So Oliver Stone got those parts right, but you know, the whole craziness and exactly how bisexual he was another story, and other historical complete failures of accuracy in that very long movie. And I like the movie, by the way, but it's not a documentary. It's not historically accurate. Point is, though, what is historically accurate is that it's not all about one race of people who are very pure killed another race

of people. Now, that did happen at certain points, but usually these conflicts were not quite so clearly defined by race it was territory. It was who the ruler was, it was who the leader was. Absolutely, and there was a cultural truly a culture war going on there. But the people within the ranks, I mean, there were entire Roman legions that only spoke German. And oh, by the way, there's more than one type of German in the ancient world.

You know, everybody thinks of the Arian with the blond and blue eyes and everything as being one thing, and that's the way it always was. That's the interesting that is quite frankly, that is mythology. The actual physical German people, there is a serious divide where there's clearly, at least

very too significantly differently appearing races of individuals there. If you want to cut races this way, you know, one of them is very dark haired, very hairy, okay, and just sort of has a certain type which is typical among them. And then true there is this sort of lighter aryan type of you know, in my mind, they're always psychologically twisted and emotionally imbalanced, but they got that pretty look with the blonde hair to blue eyes, the

optimal height, et cetera. Whether it's a woman or a man, apparently, and they really really enjoyed their freaking you know, basically meth amphetamine or a substance much like it, which the army gave them directly, you know, so when you think about the blitztrig, they were really really wound up on crank. But either way, there was a distinct difference between these two looks, and that prevailed for a long time. And

here's the fun part. A significant portion of the German population didn't even settle into agriculturally erased towns until the Romans got there. And they were dealing with two different sets of sort of Germans, which again had a different name. In ancient lands. There was seriously a good fighter warrior class of individuals, and then there was another one that was more technologically advanced, seemingly more intelligent, not quite as tough,

but way more clever. And they were divided by their different mannerisms, and indeed, at certain points there were leaders of entire legions and legions that had commanders and such that did not speak the tongue of the Empire except very minimally, because that had nothing to end there, you go, they earned their right to be Roman citizens. They in some cases returned to the Roman controlled territory, and you know, settled down in allegedly Roman controlled territory and wound up

getting what Roman women, whatever that meant at the time. Now, they weren't going to get the kings and queens and the primary subjects, but they definitely got women who are based in Rome who would have been you know, extremely DNA divergent from them. So this is I mean, this is just a reality. And now I'm starting to feel like Jimmy the Greek, who I saw clip about recently, which was kind of funny because I had to remind

myself of how Jimmy the Greek actually got fired. And it's really funny because he would have gotten fired today too. They wouldn't have put up with him. But but the point is that they really shouldn't have, because all he was saying is that during the time of slavery, you know, there was controlled breeding, and that controlled breeding kind of

produced certain results. And again, in the ancient world, you certainly would have only bred with the people that you could get your hands on, and not being a seafaring person directly or not having the greater resources or land ownership, you know, what you were going to couple up and pair up with who was right around you, and that might have changed based on who invaded, who had influence, who was brought nearby, what you were part of already

born into, et cetera. And there is a tremendous amount of diversity in the gene pool there, you know, That's all I'm saying. So arguably, Sicilians are just as much anything as anything else, because somewhere in history, promise you, anybody you want to try and fit into my family tree looks wise, you can find them. And having gone to Sicily, there are Sicilians that are, you know, darker than anything you would call black in America, and there are some that are light bright and damn near white

in appearance. You know, blond hair, blue eyes, the whole thing. I mean. I myself, I have dark hair, not very dark. I was born with blonde hair. I've got blue eyes, and I have pale skin. Sicilians do not have a lockstep singular look. A typical set of looks is not guaranteed when you have a Sicilian ethnicity, because your combination of DNA is not necessarily guaranteed to be precisely the same as your fellow countrymen So there you go. And

what can I say? So I fully accept and embrace this as at least part of what my culture actually is. Whether you can see it or not not my problem. But you know what I'm saying, What do you think?

conflict with everything. Rome went everywhere, all the way as far as Ireland, where's Hadrian's Walls and that between Scotland, No is it Scotland and England. I think yes, well, anyway you had road reached that far. The Portuguese sailed all over the world and made their influence along with the Spaniards. The Africans supposedly have traveled to every continent before anybody else was ever there. If you go by

current history, I don't know. I guess the only pure people you'd have would be the indigenous Canadians, the first nation people see and pro groups. Probably they came from over from Asia, right, most of those came over from Asia, right, So you know so much going to do it's all the meltain box. Yeah.

rules for a generation and makes all the babies. They have arrangements like this in some of these long lasting tribes where one guy makes all the babies for about ten years and then he's no longer doing that, and then the next guy ends up making all the babies

for the next ten years. So it actually diversifies stuff so that you have a guaranteed mix up and you know, okay it ends up if you run part of society that way and lead part of it sort of random, it causes enough of a racial shuffle that or you know, enough of a DNA shuffle that you don't necessarily get you know, the specially slow cousins. Just saying, right, but it's hard to do anyway. The thing is this, Yeah, even the so called indigenous people, well they came from somewhere.

The only one I don't have a good explanation for, honestly, is the indigenous people in Australia. Like I don't know how to figure that one out because at some point there had to be a land bridge for them to get there, because I don't see it otherwise. But maybe I'm all informed there.

So island hopping would not have been that hard down there. Now, I'm sure the original well, the Indigenous people into Australia probably, I would think, have one of the older lineages of any groups in the world, right, you know, just like they tracing them back to wherever they started in Africa.

But you know, if according to the Good Book, it all started between the Tigris and the Euphrates River, So you know, depending on which group you want to believe, I would imagine those indigenous New Zealand tribes and Australian tribes are some of the oldest as well.

you can't trace it perfectly. You can say those people in Australia they had isolation for a very long period of time, so they didn't intermingle as much as the rest of us, and they weren't in a hot zone like Sicily. That's all I'm saying.

and it completely resets what they were thinking. And I think it was when we when supposedly we went from what was it Neanderthal into humans, And it sets that date back a lot further than they originally thought, right, just based on that that they've done, that that this this group of individuals were able to make tools and do something anyway, whatever they found, it puts it thousands of years before they ever thought, oh.

whole lot of stuff happening here. And then there's guys who want to put, you know, saddles on dinosaurs and tell you that that's right.

what a t rex looks like based off its skeleton? Well?

colors might be all wrong. I mean, you know, if we traveled back in time, we might be shocked to find that, you know, the t rex was actually a giant, hot, pink thing. I mean in appearance, who knows, Okay, but they make claims about this, and obviously, with even the bones of a person, they can often make a fairly

accurate thing. Now they used to think they could, and the original way they did it was wrong, but they corrected it, and now they've found verifiable stuff where it's like the reconstruction does turn out accurate among people, where you know, you can get quite a few variations, and they come pretty damn clothes. You know, you can tell how no, how big the nose is, even though the nose is not present because of the sockets. You know,

it's just that simple. But there are a lot of other characteristics that could be present that we just simply don't know, you know. And and some of that stuff I suspect was made up in order to make a coherent looking thing. Uh So you know, but but as per usual, refinement right and reassessments and in fact, you know, literally changing the historical record as you go. Right. It is part of the process, no matter what you're trying

to do. If you weren't there to see it for yourself, the evidence can take you so far, like even in re you know, reenactments, where people think they've got it absolutely lock solid, we know what happened this, this is how many bullets were there, this is how many people were there, and then a radical thing comes in that

can't be recorded in the crime scene. Let's say like a completely missed shot that landed you know, eight hundred yards away that nobody found right, and it could be a gun battle, and now we've got you know, extra shooters that were bad shots or that you know, happened to be standing close to a known shooter, and therefore they disappear because it gets lumped in with the known shooter in a gunfight or in a knife fight where they assume that something is you know, actually this long,

the weapon was this long, it was this thick, And it turns out that if you take a look at what is preserved in the bone, which is harder evidence than the flesh which is long gone. You find that you thought you had a six inch knife, You have a sixteen inch knife, you know, and that tempered steel is thick. You didn't know it because of the original

things that you knew were wounds to the bone. And meanwhile there's something where you know, there's some other evidence nearby that absolutely records something to contradict that it has occurred. I've studied lots of different forensics, not just the big name cases, and the thing is, no matter what, there is a margin of error on a whole bunch of steps at different times in history, and they are improving

over time. You know, much like an X ray. There was a very crude, rudimentary X ray at a certain point,

they refined it. They refined it. The process still to this day is similar, but the collection is easier and if it is properly done with a properly you know, maintained machine, on good film, etc. Blah blah, you can now obtain it, you know, which is my worry about the non physical you know, hard copy recordings of records now that we have because you know, again, with the wrong behavior out of the sun on any given day, we could have a circumstance where a whole lot of

you know, supposedly alleged permanent records become not so permanent, you know, And then if we're only left with what was preserved on paper, b pete. It might draw a completely different picture from what people assume to have been the history up to now, just saying as it's reconstructed, it's difficult to reconstruct. And oh, by the way, a lot of ancient peoples did not take notes on things they were doing on a daily basis to even survive.

You know, they could tell you a million things about what went on in this village and you look around and go, yeah, but where did the water come from? And sometimes the scholar has no friggin clue. And that's an important point, because the people occupying that place at certain points would be very concerned about where their water was coming from. You know, they weren't going to go it's okay, I'll pick it up at Costco later. They were concerned about this pretty pretty constantly, I think. But

that's not always part of the story, is it. So you know, they tell you about, well, they made deals with the local town and they built things, and nobody tells you where the wood necessarily came from, or did they just take some other building and tear it down and rebuild it with the broken parts, which they've discovered several times in different like you know cities and things where it's like, oh, what happened here? Is that they recycled,

you know, from a you know, failing building they took. Well, the stones are still good, the beams are still good. If we bring in some new beams, we can have basically a brand new, refurbished building. And they'll pick up the building from one lot, move it over to the next,

basically piece by piece. And while you have one structure that vanished and another that has now been erected, and they're made up almost you know, almost completely or nearly completely, or with the greater majority of the materials having been something that somebody brought here two hundred years ago, you know what I'm saying. So history is always to be revised with care, and it's not necessarily always the most obvious answer to the question the progression or anything else.

And I think this is worthy of consideration. And you think I'm just talking out of my ass to hear my own voice, don't you.

this stuff. We need to put a hold on it. And why Well, because we think Richard the Third is buried under your asphalt. And come to find out he was. You know, it was a lucky guess and they dug down and they found him. And you think about societies, you know, you think about the things that we haven't found yet. They're digging up stuff in Jerusalem that has

been buried under sixty feet of earth. You know, it's like they had a city and there's always been a city, but somehow parts of that city got buried under sixty feet of garbage and dirt.

are still living there. That's the thing. It's just amazing how history gets buried in an area that people are living in the entire time. It's weird.

things that heard to cause that. You know, there's people literally frozen in the midst of doing mundane crap, you know, around volcanoes because flash they're you know, they're basically dead and they're covered in crap. That Mumma fies them done. Uh, it's pretty wild. And you know, with that in mind, I got a personal story to get into, unless you want to get into something else.

connect phone calls. But I got a personal thing to tell you that I'm kind of embarrassed to admit, but I want to analyze it because you guys out there have an experians that I have never had in my life up to now, and it's pretty wild, so you know, and I didn't expect it, and it's what caused me to only do the Monday show and then do nothing on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, except apparently I did do I think this week Hell in high Water with Maria and oh, by the way, this is our second Friday

the thirteenth in a row because of the twenty eight days in February, so I didn't even know it the last time we were having a Friday of the thirteenth. Maybe that's what happened to our communications earlier. But anything you want to discuss for a bit or vent about before I go into something else that I'm sure you're gonna have fun with.

I did run across one thing today. Robert de Niro has been pretty vocal about Trump and things that he dislikes, and I find it very hilarious that he made a statement that says he now has no choice but to leave New York City after Zohannami, the official you know, the mayor, decided to start taxing people, and it says, according to De Niro, the new administration wants to take nearly half of his savings simply because he's considered wealthy. He says, yeah, I haven't worked in some time, and

my savings are all I have. So now he's being forced to move from New York, where he's been I guess, his whole life all because of a new mayor and the news regime starting to squeeze people for their cash. And I find it hilarious that he's had to go through it. And I'm just wondering if he's willing to f Mom Dommy as much as he's willing to f Trump. And Trump ain't the one to screw it around with him. That's the part I find ironic.

wealth tax they want to impose. Because they're not only talking about taxing actual money that you have, but also the unrealized value of stocks and holdings and businesses and things of that nature. Was they call it unrealized games. They want to tax you on the value something that tomorrow the whole market could change and crash. Whatever it is you have, whatever you're invested in. Of course they

want to tax on what it's worth now. They don't give a damn what happens after they get their money until next year when they come back for more.

people want to root for and root against the taxes. Anyway, here's the thing to consider. Realized gains. Sounds like, hey, I didn't get anything out of this yet, and you're taking money from these sounds real unfair. But that's not the reality when you get to a certain level, is it. Because guys like this will turn around put their assets somewhere where they're allegedly not gaining on it, even though the value is gaining and is compiling upon itself. It's cumulative, right,

And here's the fun part. They turn around and get loans against stuff that they're supposedly not touching. And you can easily live off of loans. If you've got one hundred million dollars, you can sit there and live high and mighty with just that money and loans. And you

have loans. See, this is how Jeff Bezos ended up in a position where he owns Amazon and yet got a tax break that most people had to earn less than fifty thousand dollars a year okay, in genuine income in order to collect for a child tax credit, and it's like, how is that possible? A guy who owns one of the largest entities on the planet got a tax break for his child credit that was meant for poor people. Well, I tried to tell people at the time.

Nobody wanted to listen because either they were rooting for the billionaires and thought I was, you know, a cry maybe liberal about it, or they thought I didn't know what I was talking about because that couldn't be possible. But it happened. It was publicly accessible knowledge, it was open source. It happened. He got COVID checks. Bezos. Okay, so you know where is I mean, if you think there's somebody that would be at the front of the line for he don't need a COVID check, it would

be Jeff Bezos. But technically speaking, he swims in un you know, those unachieved assets. You know, he swims in that and lives off of what he can take from it. Now, why is this even worthy of discussing, because that's something Bpete, you don't have because you don't have those assets that you're controlling but allegedly not touching or not really controlling, but you still kind of own and they're unrealized to you, well, you know, your house shovels. Yeah, sorry, but it happens.

it costs eighteen thousand dollars. Well, here it is sixty years later, almost seventy years later. So we're gonna arbitrarily just jack that rate up to about seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars and tax you on that unrealized capital gains even though you haven't sold the house. Now, granted, when you go to sell that a house, it probably

won't go for seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars. But based on what we've looked at around the area and the going housing prices in the market, we're going to say it's worth that much pay us every year. And you're starting to see a lot of states now trying to curb property taxes for people that are over sixty five or people that own their house outright. But we'll know a lot of young people now, a lot of

younger people, if they can get to it. Instead of the standard thirty year mortgage, they're getting fifteen year mortgages, paying it off in half the time. The problem is most people don't stay in a house long enough to

pay off the mortgage. They're there for a certain number of years and then they trade up, they sell what they got to get something bigger, and you know, the cycles puts over for the first time home buyer buying that old nineteen sixty house that now needs seventy five thousand dollars of repair just to make it livable, or

the city will come in. I mean, even in this small town, they're nailing people for maintenance and things like that on houses and finally sending them letters if you don't fix this by such and such time, we will condemn the property and we will remove the nuisance. In this town, two hundred and fifty people, and they're starting to pull crap like that it's really getting bad.

perfect for him, he's got to lose some money. That balance is off on paper what it is he's got to pay to the point where it's an art form. You know, you can have a billion dollars move around and you pay zero tax. Meanwhile, somebody that does own a house and has a couple hundred thousand dollars move around because of that house, they're paying shit. So you know, I'm just saying it's not fair anyway. And the thing is they're getting away with it because the bottom line

is the bigger you go, the better. So it's good for you know, and Trump I told you this himself. Look, I was a smart businessman because I totally lost money for a couple of years. I lost a billion dollars. That was great for me, you know why, because it wrote off whatever it was he was gaining. And here's the fun part. You or I who are at that lower level, we can't continuously borrow off of some gigantic

asset pool for our house. We're very limited in the money that we can borrow against the stuff we own, and we don't necessarily get the privilege of endless refinancing till you die, and you know, and then that gets wiped away, and a whole bunch of other Every time a new loophole emerges, even if it only lasts two years, it erases a whole lot of you know, debt that you would owe for income you made by the loans

and stuff and the shuffle. So over the course of time, you pay zero, You borrow against billions, so you live on tens of minus millions and you never wind up paying any of it back. And so tell me somebody that's able to do that with their house and car and you know debt against it. No way, it doesn't happen that way because you're locked. But you get to a certain level. And now you're allowed to live tax free.

I mean, you might as well be a church, no tax, and you do a lot of things that you want. There's a whole lot of shady stuff on the books that is built into the system. And you are Reverend loves cash and that's all there is to it, baby, and you are of the religion of the New Jesus who wears rotos. Oh you know, I'm just saying, yeah, good.

A politician I've got let's say I decide to run for for a Republican seat in the North Carolina section of our federal government. Okay, I'm running as a representative as a congressman. Let's say I bit a million dollars. The first thing I do is find a family member to run a PR firm, go start an LLC as a PR consultant. Then I take all my campaign money that I can't spend on myself. It has to be spent on campaigns. And I turn around. I raised five million.

I give four million of it to my PR company, who happens to be my brother or my wife, my kid. And they turn around and take that four million, and there's really not a lot to regulate what they spend it on. They turned right back around and give three and a half million of the four million I gave them back to me. And you do that a couple of times. Suddenly you're worth thirty million dollars. You know,

you run through Chrishmen are elected every two years. So we go through this fundraising cycle, constantly building money, building money. And I want to run an ad. Okay, I call my brother up. I want to run an ad. He comes up with ad material. We run a few spots, cost US one hundred thousand dollars. He pockets four hundred thousand dollars. I pocket three and a half million. That's

a pretty good damn deal. Yeah, see that, And people are looking at this going you know, we elect you people to go and make it easier on us, bring down our cost of living. And the proof of it is this matter whether we've had a Republican or Democrat in this President's chair, no matter who has controlled the Senate, whether Republicans or the Democrat, Republicans are all getting richer. Yeah, and we are all getting poorer. Yeah, and people are

finally starting to catch wind of it. You're thinking, this has been going on since, you know, big time, since the forties, the fifties. Why is it taken seventy damn years for people to real how badly they're getting I don't get it.

on an everyday basis. And that's why I don't think about the Amazon's level and this level. Globally, we're all fucked because of the the lack of diversity globally, of interconnections between companies what they own here and abroad. You're not going to be able to get away from that.

But there's so many people out here that have been getting so screwed over for so long that it's finally, I don't know, it's like they've had their cataract surgery and they can finally see just how bad they're getting screwed every single day, not on globals, just by the people that we send to Damn Washington is bad enough, but you're going to do away with purple effects of

rich versus poor. But you could make it a little more damn beneficial to those on the lower half of the people in the United States don't pay any taxes at all, right, you know, just all right, so just go ahead them out of the equation. The other half that does have to pay taxes, forty nine percent of well, let's say ninety nine percent of those that do pay taxes are not up. They are on that global scale

with the Bezoses and everybody else. Duke Energy CEO probably takes eleven, you know, million dollars a year plus stock options plus bonuses, so he's pulling in probably thirty million a year. And my power bill will last month it's three hundred and sixty five bucks just to keep my pipe from freezing. All because they can charge play one and we can't do any damn thing about it because they're a monopoly in nine freaking states.

in the country. That's what's going on in America. By the way, there's literally six families that have control over not you know, and and do this whole dance like what I was talking about, where they borrow against the unrealized assets constantly and that's how they live, so they never technically touch them. Those people, six families do that.

The Waltons is one of them. And when an introduction comes that says, listen, why don't we just tax people who have over one hundred million dollars, there is resistance. I don't understand that because you know, in some of these bills that have been introduced, it's like, sorry.

before they start lowering that bar. One hundred million, one billion, We'll hit everybody over one million. Well, that's not going to pay the bill either. Let's hit everybody over fifty thousand. Now you're talking about the average guy out there trying to get to work and pay the bills, put his kid through school.

But did that satisfy that Bernie, No, he still had to pitch about it.

asset and all of that stuff. The people that go for what they think is, you know, property ownership and that proud thing that's supposed to be so great is already bleeding them, So you can't you know, you're not supposed to anyway tax the same thing twice, right Like, if you tax it once, you can't say, okay, I came back around, so I'm going to tax it again.

If that income and those assets are already being handled via the property taxes and this and that, that should be what divides it that the people that have a static situation where they're not picking up income very specifically, if they're living off of the loans from the unrealized assets. If you stay to the specifics in this, then there is no conflict because it never touches you or me.

We don't have loans against unrealized assets. If we take out a loan, one of us and one of anybody who's making less than two hundred thousand dollars a year takes out a loan, it's for a home you live in. It's for a vacation property that you're generating income off of, not just sitting there and borrowing against. You see the specific difference there, So I don't see I see that difference.

twelve thousand dollars. The first tax bracket is ten percent. Okay. He's paying seven percent on capital gains, so yes, he is paying a lower rate. Now his capital gains are bringing him a couple million a year. His secretary at best is probably making for Warren Buffett. She might be making one to eighty two hundred thousand a year, if

you know, depending on how much she does. But secretaries are a diamond dozen that they come under the tax structure that says everything that comes into your pocket, regardless of how you got it, is income. Those people like Bezos and the rest are not being paid under that system. They're not included in that system. They're being paid in

ways that are either low tax or no tax. And until they can in the constitution about income, everything that comes into your damn pocket is income and you're gonna pay tax on it. So unless they got the whole tax system, which I don't see happening anytime. I don't, you'll get term limits voted in before you get a change in the tax system. Because these damn lawyers in Washington are the ones that wrote the code. So all these special things, Oh, that's not income, what is it, Well,

that's capital gains. Well that's income. Oh no, that's not income. What is it, Well that's a dividend. See that's not income.

And that's the thing. They have the access to the assets without the responsibility of calling it income when they take a loan from it or they do dividends or any of this crap. And there is where the line needs to be drawn. And you're right, it does require an entire overhaul. But what gets me is what ends up happening in all of these arguments is that they deploy via propaganda people to argue against taxing these people because theoretically it'll come for them. And the sad part

is it already has. It's just under a different name. It's filed differently. They call you everything you get income, so therefore income tax. And also you use the dirty word there constitution, As far as I understand it, the standing tax structure is not in the constant. Okay, no, no, no, no, no, no, it is.

problem with that. The problem is they look at businesses and I'll give you this example, the Citizens United case where they determined that this political Pact could spend money to make a documentary about Hillary Clinton before the election and places and no, we're not going to do that. Well, they claimed that that was a violation of their free speech.

So they go to court and it goes to the Supreme Court and they decide that yes, these business entities, these political action committees and these nonprofits businesses, they are entities just like an individual when it comes to spending money as a form of freedom of speech when it comes to political activity. Okay. What they didn't do was then change all the other crap that gives these businesses the ability to write off all their shit and then

peck a tax on what's left. If they are going to treat them as an individual when it comes to spending their money, for political purposes, then they need to treat them as an individual when it comes to paying taxes and get rid of writ and off all that shit. You know, the individual does not get to write off their rent, their lights, all the other utilities, their transportation, some meals education. They don't get to write off all

that individual shit that a company does. So they may have done a good thing saying that businesses have free speech when it comes to spending political money, but they didn't retroactively go back. You would think, what is it the fourteenth Amendment that says nobody everybody will be treated the same by the federal government except when it comes

to political shit. And the only people that can change this are the ones that we elect to these offices that are suddenly making one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars a year, which is a hell of a lot more than most people in this country. Now. Granted, there's a lot of people in business making more than that.

So when we start paying our people to represent us that amount of money and give them the ability to shuffle politicals money into the personal pockets and they're not paying taxes and shit on that because it's a business that gets to write off all this stuff before me. Until you get them to change it, you're not going to change anything. And I think we're at the point right now you cannot trust the publicitician bultiple using and do anything I fit them and everybody else who's funding them.

Somebody made comment you other that this person doesn't do such and such. That's because the people that are paying them to make the decisions that they're making are paying them a hell of a lot more than we are. Okay, that's where it all comes down to.

memory's bad on some of these things. But I got to tell you I don't think.

in a certain way. And I think, now I may be wrong, and I am not extending myself here as even a scholar on this, but it seems to me as though there is nothing like what we have going on here that is justifiable by the Constitution alone. I think we should look at that one of these nights, because we've often talked about the Constitution directly, and you know how it affects us. Mute be pete, mute yourself so that maybe you can build up compression if that's

what the problem is. I don't know, Like on Skype. We used to have to do this every once in a while. Mute for a minute, because all you're doing is making an internet mitting weird noise, and I want you to be heard clearly. If you're going to say something, please let me see. Are we still broadcasting.

I think it would be worthy of our not you're still you got a mute Yeah, okay, anyway, I think it would be worthy of our time and effort to sit here and have a discussion where we refer to the document itself, the Constitution, and take a look at what that really means, because the biggest problem often is that, you know, people say, based on the interpretation of this and this section, this is what happens, this is what

should happen, and that has shifted. This is the you know function in case people forgot, you know, not to pick a political side, but to interpret the Constitution. That is what the Supreme Court is supposed to do, because the Constitution is supposed to be the supreme law of all lands. That it is you know, applicable too. So I want to look at that, and I want to look at that very carefully one night, have a discussion.

I'm sure it's been had a million times, but it's fascinating to me that we wind up going into it to this code and that code and this section and the irs you know, bylaws. None of these things, to my mind, appear to be constitutional. I mean, I can also argue that the idea that we have a standing army in the United States is not a constitutional concept directly. I don't want to do that right now because we're just talking taxes.

get some clear messages before we're out of here. And the Age of Transitions begins at ten pm Eastern AUTOCHELLI dot Com Radio. So let's do all that, and on top of it, take a little break. BP can get some coffee and compression together, I can go pee and maybe we can accomplish something regarding clarity before this MP three is finished.

In the decade that followed, it became an imperial superpower. Generals such as Curtis LeMay not only wanted to invade Cuba, but knew that there were short range missiles on the island, arn't with nuclear warheads that they could not destroy because they were on mobile launchers. Their invasion could have led to a Third World War, and they wanted to go to war anyway. The War State by Michael Swanson reveals why and will show you what President Kennedy was up against.

For more information, the Warstate dot com.

and we have a caller. So before I get into the retort and have B Pete start talking, let's see if he can even hear the callers, because we couldn't get on through our usual path and we're gonna need to start having new communications and a new platform for even him and idahook up on in order to make this work going forward, because otherwise you people are gonna be just stuck with me, no guests being able to

hear your calls, no call in show. If I can't sort this out again, even though I'm paying for stuff, it doesn't necessarily mean it keeps working. But let's see if B Pete can hear Danny in California or not, because that who is who appears to be on the line, And if he can't, I'm gonna try and sort it, but we'll see what happens. So, Danny, Hello, how are you? And I know you're not cold like I was to but what's up? Maybe b Pte can hear you? What's going on?

I'll turn this all the way up. He wanted to know what the weather was like in North Carolina recently, because we didn't get a weather report from you today.

and jump off from there. Maybe we should do that next week.

I mean that's actually a normal thing during the Trump administration here, maybe it's just me.

point they want to make. But the fact is anything that you consume unless it is grown locally, and even if it is grown locally to some degree, it'll be affected by fuel prices, but more severely if it needs to travel in order to get there. I mean, unless I'm crazy, because that's actually part of the business you're in. You deliver stuff, right, so you know, I mean, I'm just saying it seems like there's an oversimplification game going on in the media where it's like this guy good,

that guy bad. Good night. I mean, that's what we're getting now, And I don't know, I don't know if it's worse when they do that, or if they actually try to lie to you to keep you entertained. It's getting weird, Danny. I mean, that's the way I'm reacting to it. But I'm a weirdo, you know that.

go from. I know the secrets, and I can read deeply into the five million pages, you know, in ten minutes to go. But it's real simple. It works like this, and it's just embarrassingly stupid. I mean I couldn't do it with a straight face. So props to these guys who were able to go, mommy brings food, so food is a mommy thing. I mean, that's what we're looking at, you know, because I grew up in a place where mommy brought food. Maybe you did it America, yay, And

that's what we're looking at on the news now. I just you know, we're going to attack the view because it's a news program. It's not a news program in the first place, So what are you doing? You know, like, you know, we're democrats all upset about the nouns or pronouns you're using. But this bloodshed over here we care about when we don't care about the rest of the bloodshed going on over there. I mean, it's just hurting my head anymore where. It's just like, you know, did

I not devolve with everybody else? Did I miss? Is this what the Mandela effect really looks like? You know, when you're in the wrong universe? Not sure, but starting to wonder?

weird way, and this should not be happening. And I don't know if everybody else heard it, but I did, and if not, I'm going insane or I'm being targeted with this sonic weapon because something weird is going on right now and I haven't heard any Wow, Okay, go ahead, be pete.

guess I'll have to get to him later. Aaron Franz is coming up next. So again, thanks Danny for calling in. Appreciate you. Talk to you soon. Be Pete. I'll give you the final word and we'll get out of here. And damn, there goes that voice again. Anyways, go ahead, be Pete.

I see the sound indicator jumping up. Whether you guys can hear it or not, is because I have you guys on separate channels. Maybe it's just in my channel, but I see it. It is literally causing you know, the little sound indicator to jump up a little bit. It's not super loud and it's not clear, but it's there. Okay, And look if I'm having a stroke, great, anyways, with that, repeat your final word was that for the week?

So stick around if you're on the stream, and if you're hearing the podcast, click another one and download it and have fun because they're almost always all free on whatever feed you're getting it from. Anyway, with that being said, I am o'celly, you are the Effect.
