We are temporarily out of studio A, but nonetheless, the word must go on. Hello, everybody. I’m Dave Hodges. This is The Common Sense Show. We are the show that is freeing America, one enslaved mind at a time. We defend God, family, country in that order, and we have a special place in our heart for the oppressed. And we try to identify things that could be obstacles to your freedom and your salvation. Well, on those lines, we’re going to talk about something today. In fact, I’m actually going to quote to you from Proverbs 22.7, the rich rule over the poor and the borrower is the slave to the lender.

And as many of us are slipping further and further and further into debt, we have a major, major issue. And the major issue is this is that you’re not retaining your freedom. And the ability to worship the Lord, serve your country, be dutiful to your family. That’s in jeopardy when you lose your freedom. Romans 13.8 says, let no debt remain outstanding except continuing the debt to love one another. Okay, let’s look at some application here and what we’re talking about. And some of you need to hear this, like a proverbial cold slap in the face. Get out of the unnecessary debt, credit cards, consumer loans, as quickly as possible.

Use debt cautiously, like in the case of a mortgage. Pay it off aggressively. This principle is especially relevant right now with rising costs. The oligarchs rule tightly over you because they own your debt. Be as much outside the system as possible. You know, the Bible commands us, you know, you have to live in this world, but don’t be of the world. Keep operating funds in the bank. Be outside the Babylonian money system, the money changers. Remember the money changers and Jesus and what he did. Well, you don’t have to imitate those exact acts by our Lord, but you should follow the principles.

Here’s what I want you to do. I want you to make a list of the needs and wants in your life. Needs are the basics. Food, water, shelter. Wants are the unnecessary pleasures and entertainment. If you’re in debt, eliminate all wants. Cancel all subscriptions. Eliminate optional foods. And do the following. And this is where we take our role here at the Common Sense Show very seriously. Store food and water. And we can help you with that. We’ve been talking to you for years about my patriot supply. Reasonable prices. Always have specials on various things. 25-year shelf life on the food.

It has a great variety. So you feel like you’re eating in a different restaurant every night and it’ll keep you alive. 2,000 calories per day. And you’re saying, Dave, that’s a lot. Yeah, you’re eating to survive, people. This is important. So you can go to preparewithdave.com. That’s preparewithdave.com. Also, too, the longer you leave your money in the bank, the more money that you’re actually losing. Why would you do that to yourself? Keep operating capital in the bank. Convert your retirement accounts. To what? Noble Gold can help you with this. They take out your IRA, your 401k, put it under your name, and then back it with precious metals.

First of all, you’re winning right there. Because of the fact that you are in a situation where you’re losing value, if you shift from a declining dollar as a backing instrument to gold and silver, you’re already ahead of the game. Also, there’s that little pesky law called Dodd-Frank 2010, which says that if the banks want to take your money, they can. They can also bail you in and just give you a percentage. Dodd-Frank 2010, you can do an AI search on it. Do a Google search on it. You’ll see I’m 100% right. I’ve been talking to you about this for over nine years.

I want you to talk to the people at Noble Gold. 877-646-5347. But even if you don’t call them, even if you decide, hey, I don’t want to use my Patriot supply. Only a fool right now who has the resources would not be storing food and water, given the volatility of our economy. We’re on the cliff right now. And if we go into Iran full bore with ground troops, Katie bar the door. We’re already at 40 year lows for our strategic oil reserves. How long will that be until the supply chain sending you your food and your medicine? How long will that be until it’s affected? I don’t know.

But I don’t want to wait and find out. This is why I’m encouraging you to do certain things. Now, you also have to maximize your health. And so you’re kind of getting the round robin tour for what we do here at the common sense show. We do advertising that we feel benefits you in a tremendous way. And these are survival mechanisms. The Nana Soma liquid spray saved my life. And I’ve been through that many, many times on the starter pack. That’s 15% off for Nana Soma. What do you get? You also get the gel that can erase much of the inflammation.

So you get the gel that you’re feeling in your joints, arthritis, degenerative cartilage. It’s right there for you to take advantage of it. And then they have the treatment for the cuts and burns. And together it’s 15% off on the starter pack. All you got to do is go to Iwantmyhealthback.com. slash Dave Hodges. I want myhealthback.com slash Dave Hodges. Okay, now those are products and services that we back because we hope we don’t need them. But prepare for that rainy day because I need as many of you particularly Christians to come out the other side of any crisis.

And yes, I’m one of these people that’s saying only vote for Christians. Look what we’ve got when we vote for the other. That’s right. Anything that’s not Christian is the other. And I firmly believe this. You’re either on team Jesus or team Satan. And to not to choose today is to choose today. Don’t make the wrong choice. Also, you should hide 30 days of worth cash to pay bills. Hide it. Because how do you know you’re not going to see in a crisis a bank holiday? Hold on. As you know, I’ve told you, my family cousins to the Henry Ford family.

And they were quite well to do. And this is on my mom’s side of the family. And somehow Henry forgot to tell his cousins the stock market crashes coming. He got out of the stock market, just like the Rockefellers, the Carnegies, and all the rest of them. And they survived. Actually, they did well. My family took a big, big dump. Terrible, terrible situation. My mom is a very young girl, went from riches to rags overnight. It hastened the death of my biological grandfather. We could go through this again. So when I say that you better keep cash on hand, because what did they do? They closed the banks, had the bank holiday, and the banks kept everyone’s money.

How are you going to pay your mortgage on your land? You didn’t. Your money was gone. Because they tied the stock market to the banks. Well, we had laws, the Glassman-Steagall Act, that was there for decades to prevent that from ever happening again, until someone named Bill Clinton came along and got the Glass-Steagall Act repealed. And again, we have a tie-in between the banks and the stock market. That is scary. And we still do the futures derivatives. If I sell you a cow for $5, and you say, hey, you could trip around and sell it for $10, and you do, can you tell that person, you could sell it for $20, and they do.

Eventually, that million-dollar cow is not going to sell the value that people say it’s worth, then the whole daisy chain goes up. It’s a Ponzi scheme. And I just described for you very simplistic terms, how much of the Babylonian money system is involved in the stock market. Five families make the bulk of the money in the stock market. Most people, minimal profits if they’re not losing. But in a crash, the elite are not going to lose. You are going to lose. This is why you need to have cash on hand because of the domino effect that will take place.

Also, if you’re in debt, pay it off as quickly as possible, because I want to go back to where we started. Romans 13.8. Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another. Proverbs 22.7. The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is the slave to the sender. Don’t want you to be in that situation, and let me just remind you what’s happening with the homeless in some states like Utah. They have built detention camps, and it’s a crime to be homeless. And so they arrest you for being homeless. In Utah, for example, the first defense is a $500 fine.

Well, they had $500, they wouldn’t be homeless. So they go to jail because they can’t pay the fine, but it’s not a jail. It’s a detainment camp. And there they have to work to pay off their debt. And they work on things that benefit many Fortune 500 companies that get free slave labor. Oh, they pay them pennies on the dollar, but it’s effectively slave labor. And these Fortune 500 companies do quite well because of this arrangement. You go, Dave, that’s not right. Welcome to the world of modern politics. This is why I’m telling you, there’s only one government you really should put your faith in.

And that’s the coming government of Jesus Christ when he comes back for the second time. Do we have to live in this system? Do we have to obey the rules? Yes, as long as they’re not ungodly. But we have a real major problem. And the problem is at this country, 65% of you cannot afford a $500 car repair bill. You’re one accident away from the street. And in some states like Utah, soon to be Alabama, Mississippi, you’re going to be one step away from a detention center. By the way, if you’re released and you don’t escape homelessness, the second fine is $1,500 and a year of confinement while you work your debt off.

You’re saying, Dave, this isn’t right. I agree. I agree. But let’s just look at a parallel situation before I close. 55% of America reads below the sixth grade level, even though all citizens who are registered have a right to vote. How informed can that vote be? How educated could they be? How can they read up on the issues effectively when you’re functionally illiterate? It’s scary. And the trend’s not getting better. With the young people, including rich communities, 83% of the kids reading scores in the last five years have declined. 70% of math scores. So I maintain we do not have the intellectual ability, because of mass ignorance due to conditions we’re talking about, to turn this around.

Our schools are not promoting, for the most part, voter literacy, and I’m saying primarily our public schools. I was quite clear on that recently when I said you need to have your kid in a Christian education, and if you can’t afford it, and there’s ways to cut the cost, but if you can’t afford it, then do it at home and make it Christian based. We have a major crisis in this country. We are a nation in severe decline, and we’re not recognizing it. Let me just ask you a question, and I’ll leave this open-ended. You go to your favorite restaurant.

How many times in the last year have you looked at a new menu and saying, I can’t believe they’re charging this. There’s a long time favorite restaurant of ours, not too far from where we live. It’s a Mexican restaurant, my Achilles heel. Yeah, because of the calories, not because of the taste. The taste is too good, but they started charging $10 for a bowl of chips, where you used to get unlimited chips free of charge. It’s symptomatic of how sick our economy is. Get out of debt, save, do the things I said to do preventatively, and you might just get through what’s coming.

I’m Dave Hodges. This is The Common Sense Show. God bless all of you. [tr:trw].
