It's pretty obvious, is it not.Not sure where to find it.
I think is was called "Why the U.S. Always Goes to War When the Dollar Is in Trouble"
Sure, but I thought it was a well put together video even for us that know and have been following this for a long time. A little history and where we are now.It's pretty obvious, is it not.
We're the Contractor of Hypocracy - and the Bankster to Violent Movements, all causes, all stripes. It's a covert way to transfer money from a printing press into the the eager hands of MIC treasuries - first recipients of seigniorage, those who, as Mises explained, benefit the most from the newly-created, debasing, currency units.
It's a nice little hustle, and it works - until it stops working; until the fiat currency collapses.
I kept being amaze how they kick the can down the road with the housing and stock markets continually to go up. I should have been patient with the home I bought in Denver in 1999. I got rid of it before the 2007-08 dip, but now that house is worth north of a million dollars (I paid $225,000).
I doubt it.House prices the world over will collapse to fractions of their current fiat denominated price, but there won't be anywhere near the current level of buyers, at any price point.

Prices of homes have already dropped significantly in gold and silver (real money) terms. The government (at least in the United States) will print money like it's going out of style and continue to the debase it. So home prices might be somewhat lower in nominal terms but will not "collapse to fractions of their current fiat denominated price."
Maybe in long term, but not during this next big print.The collapse won't happen because of money printing, there won't be any buyers at the end of that shitshow. This AI bubble will (before it pops), destroy a lot of jobs, not just menial data entry/processing ones, but semi-skilled even professional jobs too. The net result is a significant cohort that is unable to service a mortgage or even take out a new one... market demand reduced (severely). And these people won't have new jobs to go to, and UBI is no guarantee.
It's not just AI induced crap, the vast majority of those that still have employment will default on their loans (interest rates will go up to historical norms), bank will repo, but with no buyers as above...
I haven't even mentioned the buyers disapperaring due to clot shot consequences...
Maybe in long term, but not during this next big print.
AI — Hah!
Lets see them AIs build a house, fix the plumbing, rewire your house, sheeeit!
Drive a tow truck, lumberjack, pour & finish cement, fish the Gulf of Alaska, Bah!
They crash cars and can't drive taxis. How about aircraft pilots, would you want one on your flight?
It's just all them paper pushers gonna lose their jobs RFN.
Nope. I need a pilot with skin in the game before I'm gettin' on.How about aircraft pilots, would you want one on your flight?
Just hit Ctrl + Alt + Del if there is any trouble.Nope. I need a pilot with skin in the game before I'm gettin' on.
Are the chips made in China or Taiwan?OK, math wizzes; how far will a plane flying at 40,000 feet fall before the computer finishes rebooting?
yesHow about aircraft pilots, would you want one on your flight?
I'll trust a clot-shot pilot, even with a BIDEN HARRIS sticker on his satchel...before I'll trust a computer engineered to Billy Gates' exacting specifications.yes
Cos they didn’t take the clot shot or any other “life enhacing “ meds and while an ai pilot can go wrong, it’s not going to have a medical emergency .
And afaik the auto pilot has been doing the job for some years now, with humans on standby in the event of a glitch.
There are always two pilots, so chances are very slim both become incapacitated...I'll trust a clot-shot pilot, even with a BIDEN HARRIS sticker on his satchel...before I'll trust a computer engineered to Billy Gates' exacting specifications.
The man, the company, that created the Blue Screen of Death.
You trust the medical examiners?There are always two pilots, so chances are very slim both become incapacitated...
Also, Medical exams every 6 months.

That's (probably) how it is, NOW.Computer systems on planes and anything else mission critical doesn't have a scrap of Micro$oft in them; all proprietary stuff with multiple levels of redundancy across every aspect. The airports however... all Micro$haft except for ATC.
My point exactly . AI has been quietly built into commercial aircraft for a long time …..On a commercial flight once, the pilot himself told me that if necessary, the auto pilot was capable of landing itself and taxing to within a couple 100 feet of the gate.
Autoland, yes. Taxi, no. And Autoland is programed by pilots and tightly monitored all the way, ready to disengage for any small deviation/malfunction/interference. Only some airports have the required ground equipment that allows Autolands.On a commercial flight once, the pilot himself told me that if necessary, the auto pilot was capable of landing itself and taxing to within a couple 100 feet of the gate.
All I know is what they said. After takeoff I got invited to, and spent almost the whole flight in the cockpit with them and that was one of the things they told me. Maybe they were fos, I dunno.Autoland, yes. Taxi, no. And Autoland is programed by pilots and tightly monitored all the way, ready to disengage for any small deviation/malfunction/interference.

Ummm, private jet? That is not allowed in commercial aviation, especially post 9/11.All I know is what they said. After takeoff I got invited to, and spent almost the whole flight in the cockpit with them and that was one of the things they told me. Maybe they were fos, I dunno.
I had to go back to my seat before landing, but they propped the door open so I could see out the front as we landed. Was a night landing and the runway looked like somethin' out of a video game.
Commercial. They made me promise not to tell anyone, so that's all I can really say on the interwebs. Never know who's watching, and I'd hate to get anyone in trouble.Ummm, private jet? That is not allowed in commercial aviation, especially post 9/11.
Or was it overseas with a foreign carrier? What type of aircraft was it?
what makes you think that, Nic?I have a hunch the US is going to snatch Maduro and his wife out of Venezuela.
He probably thinks that after his hallucination coming out of his drug induced partial coma not realizing he saw it early in the morning on the news in and out of consciousness.what makes you think that, Nic?
