From Porter Stansberry: On September 30th 1979, the former head of the U.S. Federal Reserve, Arthur Burns, gave a private talk ("The Anguish of Central Banking") to a gathering of the world's wealthiest bankers at a private gathering in Belgrade. This was kept secret from the American people for almost decade. If you read it, you'll see why. Burns warned the world's wealthiest bankers that the entire global financial system would soon be reset. He explained the inevitable failure of the world's new, fiat currency global financial system, just two months before the world's bond markets began an 80%+ collapse. Every American should understand this warning because it is happening again, right now. Burns explained how the Western democracies had turned to debt, financed by inflation, to create the illusion of prosperity. But this prosperity wouldn't last because the inflationary bias would sap the "economic and moral vitality of the democracies." Here are his three most important warnings. These are his words, not mine. #1. "Since 1950, the federal budget has been in balance in only five years. Since 1970, a deficit has occurred in every year. Not only that, but the deficits have been mounting in size. Budget deficits have thus become a chronic condition of federal finance… But when the government runs a budget deficit, it pumps more money into the pocketbooks of people than it withdraws from their pocketbooks; the demand for goods and services therefore tends to increase all around. That is the way the inflation that has been raging since the mid-1960s first got started and later kept being nourished." #2. "What had once been a quiet personal feeling that the future would be better than the past, particularly for one's children, was transformed during the postwar years into an articulate and widespread expectation of steady improvement in living standards — indeed, into a feeling of entitlement to annual increases in real income. But when government takes on the duty of underwriting that entitlement without the productivity to fund it, the only remaining lever is the currency itself. #3. ""In view of the strong and widespread expectations of inflation that prevail at present, I have therefore reluctantly come to believe that fairly drastic therapy will be needed to turn inflationary psychology around." Two months later, Paul Volcker starting raising interest rates and he didn't stop until they were 20%. Anyone who was holding bonds -- or virtually any financial asset -- took enormous losses. It was a global monetary reset. That's how all of this will end. It isn't hard to understand. Your parents probably weren't invited to that secret meeting in Europe. And you probably won't be invited this time, either. But those meetings are happening right now. That's why Trump went to China -- our biggest creditor. (Prepare now. Study bitcoin.)

The price of houses isn't going up; it’s the value of the USD that’s going down.

bitcoin… …is not “crypto.”

We are entering a sovereign debt crisis… …are you prepared?

All your congressperson to Please support/co sponsor… H.R. 8470, the Surveillance Accountability Act. The 4th amendment applied to our digital lives. Thanks.

If the American empire—built on surveillance, corruption, currency manipulation, and inequality—fell… Maybe the real America—decent, creative, relentless in its pursuit of happiness—would finally rise.

OVERALL US INFLATION UP 92% IN THE LAST 25 YEARS While the price of new TVs has collapsed in the first quarter of the 21st century, the things you need to survive like Food (+105%), Housing (+111%) and Hospital Services (+281%) are skyrocketing. Once you see what’s going on bitcoin starts to make sense as an alternative.

If you use the dollar you’re having value secretly stolen from you. How? Because those “prices” going up are actually the purchasing power of the dollar going down. This system benefits government in debt at the expense of citizens trying to get by. Study bitcoin.

It’s already started here on the coast and across Mendocino County where Flock surveillance cameras are being set up on our streets. Three technologies are converging in ways that deserve our attention: - CBDCs (central bank digital currencies) that enable financial surveillance - pervasive camera networks that track movement - digital ID systems that bind it all together. Separately, each is presented as beneficial. Together, they create the infrastructure for total visibility—a digital pentopticon where financial activity, location, and identity are monitored at scale. This isn’t inevitable. We have tools to push back: ✓ Encrypted, peer-to-peer financial systems like Bitcoin that operate outside central control ✓ Privacy-protective technologies (Signal, Tor, end-to-end encryption) ✓ Political pressure for strong data protection laws and warrant requirements ✓ Support for decentralized alternatives to centralized systems ✓ Local economic resilience—cash, community networks, local trade The question isn’t whether the technology can be built. It’s whether we’ll demand the guardrails—legal, technical, and cultural—that keep it from becoming surveillance infrastructure. That requires awareness first.

Now you can… …study bitcoin.

Imagine your town is reliant on junk food that’s making everyone sick and increasingly dependent on pharmaceuticals. But you’ve discovered fresh organic food that’s healthy, and you want to share this knowledge to improve the lives of your neighbors. Now imagine your town is reliant on fiat currency that’s making everything unaffordable and increasingly driving people into debt. But you’ve discovered sound money that can be used and saved for a better future, and you want to share this knowledge to improve the lives of your neighbors, too. Study Bitcoin.

For how much longer will humanity have to put up with “leaders?” The vast majority of people just want to do a day’s work, raise their children, have dinner in the evening and pursue happiness. In the meantime the world is constantly dragged into chaos by “leaders.”

There are 6 branches of government of differing levels of equality: - Executive - Legislative - Judicial - Intelligence - Military - Bureaucratic

In a world drowning in debt and inflation imagine a small coastal community where the economy is strong because bitcoin is the local currency.

It just occurred to me that in the course of talking to people about the problems with the current financial system, how it drives wealth inequality and how bitcoin fixes this…I come across as a raving nut case.

Bitcoin is a high-IQ, low-time-preference asset in a world addicted to DoorDash, dopamine, and debt. Holding Bitcoin requires patience, conviction, and the ability to not panic when CNBC tells you it’s dead for the 47th time. That rules out, oh I don’t know - 95% of the population? This isn’t some egalitarian revolution. This is a cognitive filter disguised as a monetary network. The rich, the strategic, the elite - those who understand volatility as opportunity - will stack the hardest asset on Earth while the masses beg for interest rate cuts and $600 stimmies to buy groceries they can't afford. It's not a level playing field. It's a time-preference war, and Bitcoin is the scoreboard. And every cycle, we watch it happen again. The media ridicules it, the politicians fear it, and the smart money buys more. While fiat punishes savers and rewards financial nihilism, Bitcoin inverts the whole structure. It’s a vault for those who can delay gratification, think generationally, and understand that true wealth is preserved rather than printed. The game isn’t rigged. It’s just calibrated for adults. ~Adam Livingston

Bitcoin isn't real! It's not physical! Yeah? Neither is the number seven, but I bet you'd notice if your bank balance dropped by seven figures. Let me break the spell for you: money has never been "real." Money is a collective hallucination—a social construct we all agree to pretend exists so we don't have to barter chickens for dental work. Gold wasn't money because it fell from heaven with "LEGAL TENDER" stamped on it. We picked gold because it was the least-bad physical object that checked the boxes: - Scarce - Durable - Divisible - Portable - Verifiable It was the analog solution to our shared idea. But here's the thing about analog: it's slow, heavy, and requires armed guards. And here's the thing about humans: we engineer better tools. We went from abacus to iPhone. From carrier pigeons to satellites. From gold bars locked in vaults to Bitcoin—verified by thermodynamics, secured by energy, and transmitted at the speed of light. Bitcoin is the digital versioin of money. Just like X is the digital version of town hall. Gold was the best we could do for many centuries. Bitcoin is what we can do now that we have cryptography, distributed consensus, and proof-of-work anchored in physics. Your grandpa trusted gold because he could hold it. You trust Bitcoin because you can verify it. One required faith in a metal. The other requires faith in math. Guess which one has never been debased, diluted, or confiscated by executive order? The concept of money is a human mental construct. Always has been. Always will be. The only question is: do you want your construct built on scarcity enforced by governments—or scarcity enforced by code? Gold was monetary technology for the industrial age. Bitcoin is monetary technology for the information age. Welcome to the upgrade.
