Or things like that that weve discussed that is that we have the same problem in america all of the presenters on the mainstream news on the cable news are centered entirely out of new york entirely out of washington d. C. All of the newspapers across america we used to have local television we have local newspapers we have used the regional newspapers Regional Press outlets now we only have from the Major Financial Centers and it reminded me of a contact i have in the Intelligence Community i know thats big now and these days i would be a hero on m. S. N. B c but he was telling me that under dick cheney that dick cheney was really furious when the Intelligence Community basically did not agree that there was working in iraq and that saddam husseins was friends with iraq with al qaeda and that they were w m ds there so he basically got rid of all of the agents in the field. And the reason why he did that is he said they had gone native and they had too much sympathy with the natives and that they needed to just have the imperial line and said so it strikes me as thats very similar to a scene in the media space is that we havent had anybody child we dont have Rachel Maddow when was the last time she ever left new york city arm and hand right she doesnt have the perspective and thats why they missed it thats why they failed so much and had to concoct then all these conspiracy theories to explain away their failure to see what was going to happen in 2016 or rick braggs and johnson being real and elected to the to the prime ministership like they missed all that well in the us i mean used to have more Regional Media and local media and stories would make their way from the local news to National News but now its all based on 3 or 4 major corporations i think actually there are 6 major corporations that own all the news and so they dont really pay any attention to anything outside of the where those people who are clustered are live in those areas as part of a function of the way that weve seen also consolidation and the abandonment of news as information gathering and dissemination of truth and the more of us a product like cheese thats sold by the pound but that notion of being concerned by whether its the Vice President and the case of the Intelligence Community or the corporations that finance m. S. M. B. C. And fox and c. N. N. Being concerned if the presenters are have gone gone need of if they if they are too sympathetic to the ordinary person then that doesnt work does it because then they cant sell the box hed marinen boeing ads against Rachel Maddow show they cant sell war they cant sell these things like they have to abide by whatever the you know the corporate line is a rental car or there is stark. It is true right. This idea as you point out the anecdotally cheney fired all the cia agents in the field because they were too sympathetic to the locals and he felt that was a liability in the major media spheres in washington d. C. They dont want those reporters those stars to rub elbows in the great unwashed of the flyover states because they may become sympathetic to the working class they may become sympathetic to the to the disenfranchised in america so they keep them in their little bubble and this i guess is what were seeing over at the b. B. C. That they were they suggest that these stars that are paying enormous amounts of money in in the u. K. Should go out there and actually talk to real people but if they were to do that they might actually become sympathetic to the plight of those real people and that could be a problem in getting the official propaganda message over the line and as very strange that weve seen a week since especially 2016 when both the banks and the trumbo happened and the elite 2 are again are in the capital city theyre not on the ground theyre not seeing and talking to the deplorable so since then weve seen this fake news and what dick cheney for example what he wanted at that time in the lead up to the invasion of iraq was fake news he wanted a dodgy dossier he wanted a sexed up dossier remember he wanted to sell the war here the same thing they want to sell war thats what m. S. M. B. C. And fox do they sell war and if youre talking to people on the ground who if you talk to people on the ground they they want an end of globalization at this point its too fast and furious is too much war its too much poverty for the bottom with the top running away with all the quantitative easing funds they are i find remarkable i just read a statistic on this recently Something Like 40 or 50 of the talking heads on m. S. N. B. C. And these other cable outlets and actually our current or former cia. Operatives thats if thats thats government this a mouthpiece of the of the in this case the deep state and this is why theres so much confusion with this impeachment circus going on because the media is not independent theyre mouthing the talking points of the deep state and were going to see a continuation of this fake news theme going into 2020 because there is another election and you know even the polls are showing that trump can beat all of these in a back in 2016 they didnt but still because they will refuse in the United States they will refuse in the cable news to go native to see the deplorable to talk to all our deplorable to even understand the deplorable theyll theyll Rachel Maddow wont leave manhattan thats my prediction for 20 and 20 shell stay there and shell pontificate from there and shout at people from there but i also want to now talk about 2020 in terms of the stock market because 21000 and it with a remarkable story i felt because there was record outflows from mutual funds and he asked Us Equity Fund flows 21000. 00 a c. In the largest outflows from us equity mutual funds an e. T. F. And 28 years this 340000000000. 00 in total meanwhile the s. And p. 500. 00 is be in the ms sci world excluding us an index by 20 percent since the 2800. 00 started so i looked at this data and he says welcome to the outsized effects of of passive indexation the market still goes up into massive outflows as active strategies sell i. E. The baby boomers are retiring and selling at all time highs and passive buys i for one k. s and stuff like that are driving the index higher and taking in ever larger share of the market lets put this into context theres a lot of talk now about how social media platforms like facebook and and others rely on algorithms and these algorithms are programmed to exclude certain talking points and discussion points to emphasize others. They appear to be in the province of the management of these huge corporations that have their own agenda based on the public good but this war algorithm is become very fashionable now weve been talking about on the show for many years but now you find hollywood celebrities and talking and talking about the algorithms ok the fact is that algorithms on wall street as well what 80 to 90 percent of volume is by robots and a lot of the stories of the robots key off on are written by algorithms like forbes uses digitally assisted editorial mechanical robots to write stories based on prices and they film the narrative and then the robots look at what the robots wrote in the robots buy and sell the changes prices in the robots comment on the price change and then the robots on the Trading Floor look at what the robots wrote about the price change and then they buy and sell again so does daisy chain or mobius strip of a of algorithm speeding on each other and so it would remove that story there the algorithms are showing that the market is moving up which is drawing in a lot of passive money the pension money that must invest based on algorithms or the human there and so the robots are buying all these stocks meanwhile the humans the people who look at the market in terms of the price to earnings ratio price them market capitalization ratios are dumping theyre getting out of the market the luckiest generation ever to stock American History then we were in generation is getting out at all time highs thanks to quantitative easing its its the money owns and younger who are buying this their passive funds are buying that and now finally speaking of Rachel Maddow or one of her biggest sponsors certainly have m s n b cs boeing boeing is a huge defense contractor in america but they also make planes that fly that fall out of the air boeing shares tumble after company suspend 737 max production so that suspended it theyre going to have to wait probably until march or april. To get any f. A. A. Approval for speaking of algorithms this is a plane that structurally cannot fly cant fly on its own it needs software and then algorithm an order to make it airworthy because of the design flaws of the actual plane so theyre waiting for you know the f. A. A. To approve this i want to point out when the stock price tumbles and still over 300. 00 which is up nearly 3. 00 and 2. 00 fold since chump came into office so you can see that as soon as trump came into office it spiked because there has been a huge increase in the budget for the military Industrial Complex underwriting so our algorithms destroy the Public Discourse over social media algorithms destroy the public marketplace. Relying on robots to talk about and then trade stocks and so the Aviation Industry is saying hold my beer lets take these algorithms and put them in charge of flying around planes and if people fly out of the sky they crash out of the sky well its our fault its the algorithms fault its the robot blame robby the robot that the c. E. O. Of boeing when nothing to do with it before the end of 21000 there was some sort of leak of information or some data that came out of the f. A. A. Who are the regulators for the Airline Industry in america theyre supposed to be the regulators and it showed that they knew that this plane the 737 max had problems with flying and they expected there to be one or 2 crashes every 3 years so they already knew they knew this and they took this as part of their their willingness to you know keep up the share price i didnt want to impact a Company Member under the holder doctrine would like they say these regulators stay up late at night if they think that the stock price or these c. E. O. s and the executive suites they might lose some income or options trade you know thats not quite a problem you know they put people on the board who maybe came from an ice cream industry if they can accept certain number right here as per kilogram of ice cream so its acceptable in the manufacturing process they figure ok so. These planes are gonna fall out of the sky if you want to people will die but thats acceptable rest of it are Profit Margins get people on your board who value human life well going out to be a good 1st step stay tune after the break we have jimmy song from uruguay go away. With. The pumpkin. Join me every thursday on the alex simon show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business im showbusiness ill see that. When you. Look at the. New. Please. It. Just insecure stalls that its about seeing me up theres. Just too little. Sleep. Welcome back to the kaiser report imax keyser time that it started jimmy song is an author and hes asano well very very well known in the big point space jimi welcome back thanks for having me again all right so yeah i mentioned youre not youve written i think 2 books out on the right well one of these 2 books it is programming because its for developers so if that want to learn about their corner teaches you everything that you need to know to learn the brooklyn watching the other book is a little bit corny book is more for a laid audience that doesnt know anything about the coin become learn all about it or if you already know because this is a good way to save time when explaining it to your relatives knows nothing about it perfect so we are in montenegro we are in montevideo uruguay and that the a lot american conference or law bit calm and you gave a very compelling talk and at the centerpiece of that tok was something called the can tell in a fact which we mentioned on the show quite often and as a bit coin guy wants a maximalist but im sure you can i dont think thats an insult not to as a big climax wellstone has been really deep dive into this space for a while talk about it because i think this is a concept that really needs to be understood in a broader sense yeah so the cantillon tend to want to count a lot of fact is essentially this fact named after this economist richard kemp someone whos a french irish economist from the 17th hundreds who noticed that with the bank of england the people that 1st got the newly printed money got all of the benefits and and what it was ive noticed as ive studied the various of facts of back from the u. S. Dollar is that you know largely bay benefit a lot of rich people get companies you know we were talking earlier about nationalization essentially of a lot of companies. Through the Central Banks that are taking on some of the stock on Balance Sheets and some want to but bet that thats who benefits its the people back at the spender 1st and you can always kind of see it with the Interest Rates that theyre getting all of the u. S. Dollars are debt at this point so whoever gets a lower Interest Rate theyre the people back at the most amount of benefit out of it and who are those people were its the Big Companies that are getting you know point 5 percent and its the bankers that you know get to print that money and make all of this money essentially for free trade i mean to put it in simple terms its almost like living upstream you get the clean water you know and as the water slows down it gets dirtier and dirtier and so if you live near a central bank and the zip codes around the Federal Reserve meeting in washington are very very rich interests and they tend to be all the industries they get their 1st day of on the money tend to be very rich the Hedge Fund Industry we have one has found a guy in new york just bought an apartment for 250000000. 00 right so hes thats money thats essentially just being piped from the central bank into his property speculation and by the way he just put a former central banker on his board. So theres a very close relationship there and so how does this relate to bitcoin in terms of money because actually i was reading that some austrian economists are also critical of this council in effect and sato a chorus thats another theme here in the conference is austrian economics and austrian economics interesting way enough big point is legitimized in a way it had been overridden by keynesianism been overridden by the paul krugman of the worlds but its made a huge comeback because of the things predicted about currencies competing with each other in the multitude of currencies out there is there a connection do you see a connection and as a technologist do you how do you find it interesting that youve now got into the realm of economic theory. Mary and how do those 2 things Work Together yeah i never would have imagined that this is the direction but i would have gone down when i started by programming career like 20 years ago but unfortunately thats kind of where its led and and i have studied a lot more of austrian economics especially since 2008 and i have noticed that you know a lot of the predictions of austrian Economic Business cycle theory mal investments leading to all sorts of you know bad effects in the economy and stuff like that were weve been seeing that especially since 2008 bad investments are not vestment only because the money it just flows into the pockets of those near the money is not based on the fact that theyre smarter are building anything thats trained jobs that have a proximity to the money and this crowds out good businesses and good banks yeah and you know like instead of Capital Capital crew cumulation right now you have just that base so whoever can get access to that debt at the cheapest price and the price is not determined by current savings its newly printed money or what at what rate you can get those and that those are all inevitably the Big Companies or trickle down through v. C. Money toward startups and things like that so you have all sorts of perverse incentives in the economy and that causes these giant corporations that are like not feeling at all you know like there are way too big to feel anything really but there they end up abusing the system for their own benefit and lining the pockets of people in cities like new york and london you wonder why those 2 cities for example or prosperous because their financial sectors its because they had their near the money like you said now another Financial Center thats experiencing quite a different reaction right now beyond and it seems like they can tell us fact is operating in a big time and when the prices of property just skyrocket and theyre not trickling down. And is that now what the future of these other Financial Centers can look for is is on content of the canary in the coal mine here could be its are its hard for for us to say and im sure itll be a lot clearer and retrospect but yeah theres. A store of value premium on almost every asset that exists right now which is which is kind of scary because that means that instead of things being valued for their utility like a house is valuable because you can you know rent it out or live in it or whatever instead theres an additional premium on top of that. For store value because theres no good store of value in the world today i mean other than decline which is making inroads in that regard but because of that these resources end up going to people that want to store value and set up people that want to use it that that means that a proud people that want to buy homes to live in instead its going to people that want to bet its gone so crazy that in china. You know 2nd homes are there more people buying 2nd homes the 1st ones theyre not living in them probably and there are entire ghost cities of apartments because the Chinese Government feels the need to have more assets that people can invest in and i mean thats absolutely crazy so lets talk a lot america and also 971 nixon summers the connection between gold and the u. S. Dollar finally defaulting on sovereign debt in america and shortly thereafter with all that free of money around the u. S. Decides to go on a colonialization spree overthrowing the government in chile only when the government in argentina nawaf out money now Flash Forward 292020 populations here from my observation take the lead argentina and seemingly believe that big coin is the way out of this so hard money we can we can we can get really is colonial us masters and adoption rights are quite high what what it what have been your observations anything so. More to that what do you add to that the i mean all around the world i think everyone kind of has this idea that there is a dollar germany the dollar controls everything that there is a monetary imperialism but the u. S. Is essentially you know putting out to everybody else they can you know for example enforce sanctions in or on iran because they anybody that does business theyre going to have to have some sort of banking relationship and he needs a relationship with the u. S. Fed in some way and if you cut that off they run out of business or they go out of business so that has been the method of control and you can see that inflation sort of gets exploited to a lot of these 3rd world countries or latin america especially and you get hyper inflation because they really have no other choice in terms of white balancing their books or Something Like that so. Talk to anybody in these countries they understand the dollar germany almost right away and they understand that because it is a politically neutral money its the money of peace as you would say and that causes them to get it much faster than say a Silicon Valley insider that thinks because some tech play in these 2 you know theres better because theyre coming so i better invest in them or Something Like that inside its like yeah i get it its a politically neutral money its something that i can store my value in and i dont have to you know like you know be abused by my government whos oppressing me through monetary means trash or mention theres some sirens in the back. To hear that thats what thats all about now you mention that everything is being treated as a star a value and utility value is being overwritten and lets talk about your hat for 2nd. Thats a typically would buy as utility to keep the sun from your eyes or to keep the rain off your face and yet you seem to turn this into a little bit of a Cottage Industry launching off your hat again so youre buying the status for. As a store of value because youre auctioning them off at presumably a bit higher price and youre buying them that but if so this whole trend toward commodification and the ignoring utility value has extended to your chapeau to follow in the cantillon effect link linguistic paradigm here tell us of more about that when will this happy auctioning off and hows that business going to mean i guess youre calling me out for being a scammer and i think im going to have to kind of agree a little bit here but its for a good cause max its for good crossed no im not because im not suggesting that im saying that its a great example of exactly where youre talking about people look at the world in terms of what the resale value is on the average 3 and then nothing is utility anymore and that extends socially into the family and some of the institutions that have been responsible for social cohesion are being ripped apart at the seams by this trend toward the modification of my own too fast for a jury because i. Didnt know you really you know like whats this guy going out there oh you know me youre writing books i dont. Know. Youre absolutely right. There is sort of like this thing where people think in terms of what resale value that theyre going to get and how much value theyre storing and stuff even even people that are hoarders its kind of. You know a consequence of that a factor in their thinking theyre not hoarding necessarily i mean its a mental disorder and stuff like that but their justification is usually about resale price of these things if you werent really out money and yet saturday because if you look at it this year oh yeah and that sense its that way too but but yeah even even stuff like my hat or whatever people do think in terms of how much can i sell it for later and there is a desire to sort of value but because money is so bad at it when nothing is a. I mean when when nothing is a good store of value everything takes on some of the sort. Well you characteristics and having a separation i think would be very good because then you start thinking of things in terms of utility and what you need and how you can make more money doing a business or being an entrepreneur or find providing value and so on and thats thats very good for civilization that adds good new goods and services whereas you know like mentality is i need to get my share and i need to make sure that im not screwed when you know blah blah blah and that thats a much better mentality for everyone to have i think yeah its going to point yeah all right well thanks were going to report thanks are. Going to do it for this edition of the times report with me max i just thank our guest jimmy song author and bitcoin influencer so next time if i catch us on twitter its guys are parts all the. Things. Seem wrong. Just dont hold. Any world yet to see how disdain. And in the game equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart. Choose to look for common ground. Thousands of american men and women choose to serve in the countrys military and the decision. Every song came to a complete. The day that i was raised to be instructed is you know told to shut up or theyd kill me and i see how i would destroy. Any screamed at me and he made me come in the gram my arm and he raped me with his birthing area if you take into account that women dont report because of the extreme retaliation and its probably somewhere near about half a 1000000 women have now been sexually assaulted in the us military rape is a very very traumatizing tat happen but ive never seen trauma like ive seen women who are veterans who have suffered military sexual trauma reporting rape is more likely to get the victim punished dont be offended and almost 10 year career or chose very invested in and i gave a sex offender who was not even put to justice or put on the registry this is simply an issue of tower and violence male sexual predators for the large part of target whoever is there to prey upon whether thats a man or a one.
