THE MAJOR PROBLEM WITH A BORDER WALL

You still need to keep operating capital. But I don’t know why anyone would keep the bulk of their money somewhere where they get less than 1% interest. And also too, the laws. Dodd-Frank 2010. Dodd-Frank 2010. UCC Section 8, paragraph 5. Both of those federal acts, legislations, tell you that they can keep your money in the bank if they want to. Especially if there’s insolvency involved in the UCC Section 8 code. They can keep your money because it’s anywhere along that line of banking. There is insolvency. Your funds are in trouble. The best you can hope for is a haircut where you get a percentage of what you own.

The last time this happened, Cyprus. One bank took 100%. The other second bank in Cyprus took 40%. I don’t know why anyone would trust a system where it’s built into the system, the law that when you put your money in the bank or your retirement’s associated with the bank, it’s no longer yours. Now, what I’m about to tell you, the FTC wants me to tell you, there are no guarantees. There’s a risk involved in every financial transaction that you make in the world. But I think they should give a bigger warning with regard to what the banks can do, should they so choose.

Or if they get in trouble, things automatically kick in. Now, Noble Gold is the best I’ve ever dealt with. What I mean by that? I’ve done multiple deals time and time again. We have a payment for something coming in. The bulk of it is going to go and buy gold. Now, gold is holding right now at about 3,300. But it’s ready to explode because countries and banks are hoarding gold like crazy. Silver will follow, which you can also get from Noble Gold. Also, they can convert your retirement away from what the bank would control with an IRA or 401k.

And they can put it under your name, your control, your ownership, and back it with precious metals, which is a lot better than having it backed with a failing dollar. You’re saying, that sounds pretty good. Can I find out more? Yes, I want you to give them a call. 877-646-5347. That’s 877-646-5347. I want to talk to you about a the bank supporters are championing the construction of the wall. Immigration that’s illegal is down at an all time low. Last month, no one was involved in catch and release because 98% of the released people never show up for their court date.

And so the Trump administration has just stopped doing it. And people say the border is the wall going up. We have 700 miles of wall on a 2100 mile border. And we’re going to go to 2100. This is fantastic. This is wonderful. This is great. There’s a danger with a border wall. And history speaks to this very clearly. And modern history, not ancient history, not going back to the Greeks and the Romans and so forth. Modern 20th century history shows us the danger of a wall. In the closing days of World War II, the Soviets were closing in on Berlin from the East and the Americans, the help of the British and the French were closing in on the West.

There was a race for Berlin. FDR didn’t trust Stalin any further than he could throw him, but he was a necessary evil for an ally. Okay, that was important. But on the other side of the coin, we knew what the Soviets were about. They’d gone through a major purge. I mean, they brutalized their people. Stalin killed many of his top military advisors, which really hurt him early on in the war. And when they knew Stalin would be a bad deal. Well, he got into Berlin first. The US raced to Berlin and the city was split in half.

And very quickly, the antagonism between the Soviet Union and their Eastern Bloc conquered nations came into play against the United States and its allies. And Berlin was divided into two. And the Soviets promptly built a barrier that separated East Berlin and West Berlin. Hundreds were killed trying to escape the communism of East Berlin, the economic deprivation that always accompanies communism. They tried to escape this. And it was often met with deadly consequences. Well, as if the Berlin Wall was not enough. The Soviets built the Iron Curtain, which was designed to permanently separate East Berlin, East Germany, and all of Eastern Europe from the West.

And it was a capital offense to try to escape. Now you would think, as in America today, if you don’t like the country, you’re free to leave. A couple of celebrities have already done that. They didn’t like the election of Trump. They fled the country. No one interfered with them. Here’s the problem. When a wall is built and it’s very secure, it can work both ways. And I’m going to be brutally honest. I think there are some really good Democrats out there and I wish they were running their own party. They are not.

The party is being run by extreme communists. I don’t mean socialists. I don’t mean liberal Democrats. I mean communists. Madami in New York wants to eliminate private property. He’s express anti-Semitic views. He wants publicly owned grocery stores, which is going to cause a huge exodus out of New York City. Wall Street will become Miami Street. With his economic policies of Rob from those who’ve earned their money and give it to those who haven’t earned their money. I’m not talking welfare. I’m talking wealth redistribution. And Madami is championed by Bernie Sanders, Ocasio-Cortez, Governor Newsom of California, Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, the governor of Michigan, and the leaders of the Democratic party are either too afraid to speak out against this movement or they agree with this movement.

Either way, right now, you may not like MAGA. And there’s some people who have some argument against MAGA, but it’s not communist. The move for the Democratic party today is decidedly communist. You listen to Ocasio-Cortez’s rhetoric. She was chosen for her position and groomed by Bernie Sanders staffers. They found her working in a bar in New York and said, well, we think you have the charisma to become a good congressperson. And they trained her. Who was Bernie Sanders? Well, consummate communist. Actually, he even honeymooned in Red Square. I kid you not.

And the Russians were all too happy to embrace him. Now, having made that distinction, what if the Democrats win the next election? What do you think will happen with the wall? Because who escapes communism? Those who have money and have something to protect. And the last thing a regime wants is for capital flight. Now it’s happening in China right now as we speak. And China may not have a wall surrounding its entire country, but they have virtual enforcement of every inch of their border. You can’t sneak out very easily. And the way that the Chinese businessmen are dealing with their attempt at capital flight is first, they send their kids off to school.

Then mommy has to go and make sure they’re being treated okay. And dad arranges a business trip and has a lot of currency and international banks he can access when he’s outside of China. That is happening, but the Chinese are cracking down. They are trying to greatly limit capital flight. In fact, actually, it was a news item over the weekend that an executive of Wells Fargo, an American born in China, but naturalized in America, an executive of Wells Fargo working in China has been banned from leaving. And he’s not alone. There’s 90 other people in that same situation.

If a wall is built, whether it’s a digital wall, military wall, and actual physical wall construction, if a wall is built, it just doesn’t keep foreigners that you don’t want to overrun your country out. It can keep the money from people who want to escape a repressive regime, like what Madami wants to bring to New York. It keeps these people in the wall is a two-edged sword. My point is that we don’t abandon the wall. We make sure that we never go down this road where we have people that think that the government should own and control everything as opposed to a limited view of government, restrained by a constitution with civil liberties.

Well, the Obama administration did not respect the constitution. And I’m not going to go into a diatribe about that, although someday I probably should. I think the most infamous example would be the auto pen concealing the president’s condition, people running the country that were not voted for, the disenfranchisement of the American voter. This is a very big deal and it’s a very real threat going forward. Donald Trump is in his last term. I know people like to say, oh, there’s going to be a third term. There will not be a third term.

There will not be. He’d have to actually seize power like a dictator because our system is quite clear. You have two terms and that’s it. It doesn’t matter if they’re consecutive or irregular. It does not matter. And the people that make that argument do not know the laws governing the presidency. So who will take his place? The one thing I’ll say about this democratic party, there are people that don’t agree with what’s going on in the democratic party. I hear from some of them. Fetterman is the only one who’s had the courage to speak out.

Fetterman is actually the kind of democrat that you can work with. He has his ideals. I don’t agree with a lot of his party platform, but he’s reasonable. He compromises, he communicates, he talks and the democratic party is eviscerating him. They get everybody on the same side. That means that they can organize to win an election. The wall may turn into something other than what it was intended. I’m just warning you. The wall is not the solution. Staying engaged in the political process is the solution. It’s not like Trump is elected and you go back to sleep.

We made that mistake in 2016. Let’s not make it again. I’m Dave Hodges. This is The Common Sense Show. We’ll see you back here again next time. [tr:trw].
