Economist Richard Werner spends 2+ hours making your head spin recounting historical events on a thread leading up to this very moment
NFTRH – Notes From the Rabbit Hole – is so named because of the hole I fell down in the 2002 time frame. It was an expansion of consciousness and an awareness that the world is not what I’d been led to think it was. Although, I’ve always been a malcontent and aware that society had many false idols and distractions. I’d been aware that evil exists as well. But I was ignorant of the dynamics in play behind the scenes, especially as relates to central banks and the real seats of power.
But the rabbit hole and in particular one person I met down there activated me. Gold, gun, wood stoves, generator, long-term (20yr) food supply, heirloom gardening. You name it. I was into it. The fear was of global elites controlling the financial system and thus, we the people. But I lived in a small town and had a toddler and a baby. I decided to break what felt was like a cult, and get normal… and live ‘normally‘ within what I still knew was an illusion.
Hence, Notes From the Rabbit Hole, with its mission to understand the asymmetrical nature of things but to never give in to the asymmetry in the form of emotional decision making. In other words, the world is fucked, deal with it Gary. Okay.
Weird shit, eh? Or maybe not so weird. It just is what it is. Evil exists and fast-forwarding to today, it is winning. And I don’t mean Trump. He’s a made for TV tool. A perfect figurehead for it all straight out of central casting and absurd Reality TeeVee.
But then a funny thing happened. As an older person, I happened to watch this 2 hour+ interview where Tucker Carlson barely gets 20 words in while this gentleman, economist Richard Werner, just brain dumps and illustrates common threads from the British Empire and its wars though today, and ours.
Why am I mentioning this on a market oriented website? Because the power is with the monetarists, which was the theme in 2002 when I affixed my premium, American-made tin foil hat. It is still the case today. Monetary policy, government puppeteering and war. Germany was once to Britain what China is to the US today. I did not know that.
Notes From the Rabbit Hole implies a view from a different perspective. I learned to separate the markets and the illusion of reality from reality as I perceive or know it to be. I will continue to do that.
For example, if AI is making us money, I will discuss it. If AI is an inherently evil tool for evil agendas, I will understand it. It’s two separate things. If stocks are going up and gold is going down, that’s what we do here. We understand and deal with it. In my heart I value honest money. In my down and dirty speculator’s brain I will deploy with whatever I think is going up (or short what I think will go down).
A speculator speculates. An idealist idealizes. Two separate things. I’ll try to harness the evil out there and make it work to my and subscribers’ benefit. You may think that is demented or even sick, but I think it is playing the hand you’ve got.
Think what you will about Tucker Carlson. The guy presents outstanding interviews. As a human, tin foil hat or not, I think there is a lot of worthwhile stuff to think about in this interview.
