People Don’t Recognize America Anymore — Here’s Why. Americans across the country are struggling with the cost of living crisis, inflation, rising grocery prices, housing costs, economic uncertainty, crime, layoffs, and the feeling that America is changing fast. In this video, we talk about why so many Americans feel like the country they grew up in is disappearing and why more people are waking up to the reality of everyday life in America today.

The U.S. economy runs on debt — every stage of life is tied to borrowing, with compounding interest that keeps people stuck. Corporations profit off that cycle, while wages are driven lower, and lower. It creates a system where “freedom” exists on paper, but in reality people work to service debt . If you step back and compare it globally, there are places with free healthcare, state housing, less aggressive lending cultures, and safety nets. Staying in the debt based system isn’t ambition — it’s inertia. At some point, it’s worth asking whether playing the game is actually worth it, or if opting out entirely leads to a better life.

Americans don’t care about much until prices get high. Now it’s too late.
How much do you think everything should be when the whole world is affected by the choices our government makes while we are complacent???
Wake up! We have been spoiled at the cost of the rest of the world.

ONE OF THE BIGGEST PROBLEMS WAS AN OPEN BORDER BRINGING IN PEOPLE WHO GAME THE SYSTEM AND ADD LITTLE TO AMERICA. THEY FLOOD THE ER ROOMS AT THE HOSPITAL AND DON'T PAY FOR TREATMENT WHICH MAKES THE PEOPLE WHO CAN PAY, PAY HIGHER BILLS. THE ONES THAT TAKE LOW SKILL JOBS TAKE JOBS FROM AMERICANS AND THE ONES THAT DRIVE TRUCKS PUT THE PUBLIC AT RISK AND KILL AMERICANS. A WELFARE STATE WILL NOT GROW AMERICA AND WILL TURN US INTO A THIRD WORLD SEWER. DONALD TRUMP IS BRINGING MANUFACTURING JOBS BACK TO AMERICA AND TRYING TO ELIMINATE THE RISK OF A ROGUE GOVERNMENT FROM LAUNCHING NUKES AT US OR THE EUROPEANS.

Why does having health insurance make things more expensive? Because it's all a gigantic con game

“So long as they (the Proles) continued to work and breed, their other activities were without importance. Left to themselves, like cattle turned loose upon the plains of Argentina, they had reverted to a style of life that appeared to be natural to them, a sort of ancestral pattern…Heavy physical work, the care of home and children, petty quarrels with neighbors, films, football, beer and above all, gambling filled up the horizon of their minds. To keep them in control was not difficult.”

1. Privatized, franchised(Like Burger King) Rothschild central banking system AKA The Federal Reserve. Which is as federal as federal express.
2. Federal Reserve Act 1913.
3. Richard Nixon takes the federal reserve note off the gold standard in 1971, which allows unfettered debasement of the currency.
4. Propagandized public through media(smith-mundt act amended by governance)
5. Willful destruction of the currency by governance that’s traded by the public(The Federal Reserve note).
And so much more….

It seems like the overlying theme is a whole lot of people are going to have to start living like a whole section of society that they always looked down on. Hate on me all you want but this has been going on for decades not overnight not because of a democrat or a republican I have always known that until the average American is inconvinced between the refrigerator and the television they won’t say a word. In the 70’s and 80’s the people that saw what was coming started homesteading and preparing the were called survivalist before they were called preppers. Thy told us what was going to happen and they were laughed at and mocked.

Our criminal rulers makes threats to destroy whole civilizations in others Countries doing an act of aggression. What leaders makes such criminal threats and remain in power with full support of the suffering citizens. This is unacceptable behavior for representaters. These are Nazi like war crimes that needs to be addressed! Micheal Jackson said it best:"they don't really care about us!"😢😢😢😢

48:01 That cart is full of the most expensive stuff in the store. I can completely fill up a cart and have a 3lb chuck roast, pork chops, chicken legs, eggs milk oatmeal, keto clusters, etc. Anyway, I eat well balanced meals, but that cart with 3 12 packs of zero sugar grapefruit sparking water and 3 gallons of 1% milk underneath. and the cart packed is about 250 at Aldi. Going to Aldi is a freaking blessing. They always have certain things marked down. I got two giant packs of organic fed chicken legs for a 1.50ea. I got 3lbs of sliced rib eye steak for 12dol so I bought all three packs. That was in 'round town' Circleville Ohio.

At this point the biggest reasons were poor:
"Education system" never taught us ant sort of financial literacy.
Taxes. You are subject to 50 -200 taxes in a day and you don't even know it.
Insurance is an all out scam.
