Myth of the 20th Century

Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, has written several books on the world of investing and the economy in general based on his years of experience as manager of the world’s largest hedge fund. In the latest of his ‘Principles’ series, Dalio applies his quantitative approach of macro investing to analyzing countries, seeking to identify the factors that lead to strength such as education and work ethic, as well as lagging indicators such as a reserve currency that allow a country to spend beyond its means but ultimately presage a fall from dominance. Notably, Dalio sees China’s rise to the top of global power as likely, with America, while ahead, slowly declining. Tonight we debate the merits of his analysis, as well as the overall validity of a global macroeconomic approach that overlooks key factors such as demographics in forecasting long term power status. https://www.bitchute.com/video/xbi0kpYALuVY/ https://odysee.com/@myth20c:5/changing_world_order:3 Myth of the 20th Century – Episode 249 – The Changing World Order – Why Nations Succeed and Fail — References — – America’s 60 Families, Lundberg (1937) – The Fate of Empires and Search for Survival, Glubb (1978) – Gung Ho, Howard (1986) – Dynamic Hedging: Managing Vanilla and Exotic Options, Taleb (1997) – The Fourth Turning, Howe & Strauss (1997) – The House of Rothschild (series), Ferguson (1999) – The Ascent of Money: A Financial History of the World, Ferguson (2008) – A Gift to My Children: A Father’s Lessons For Life And Investing, Rogers (2009) – The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable, Taleb (2010) – Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder, Taleb (2012) – Cycles in History – The Fourth Turning, Myth of the 20th Century (2017) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2017/11/15/cycles-in-history-the-fourth-turning/ – Principles for Navigating Big Debt Crises, Dalio (2018) – American Factory, Bognar and Reichert (2019) – China Factory Blast: Death Toll Rises to 64, Hundreds Injured, PTI (2019) – https://www.thequint.com/news/world/chemical-plant-blast-china – The Changing World Order: Why Nations Succeed and Fail, Dalio (2021) – The End of the World is Just the Beginning, Zeihan (2022) – Zeihan – After Dark – the Collapse of Globalization, Myth of the 20th Century (2022) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2022/10/31/zeihan-after-dark-the-collapse-of-globalization/ – Train Fatalities, Injuries, and Accidents by Type of Accident – https://www.bts.gov/content/train-fatalities-injuries-and-accidents-type-accidenta

Stagflation. Fuel Prices. Shortages. Political Turmoil. War in Europe. Roe V. Wade. Crypto Collapse. Counter-counter culture. Most years have one or two seminal, defining events that set the societal zeitgeist, but in 2022 so many events vied for attention that most people had to take time not only to revaluate what it means for the future, but also simply how to filter out the signal from the noise. Tonight we dive into the year, starting with the Ukrainian conflict, and ending with what might be emerging as an escalating one in Mexico, but in between cover the economic and cultural shakeups that continue to leave shockwaves into 2023. — Brought to you by — Very special guest Borzoi https://www.bitchute.com/video/ArItkUA54gMB/ https://odysee.com/@myth20c:5/2022_YnR:e Myth of the 20th Century – Episode 248 – 2022 Year in Review — References — – Ralph Brewster and Howard Hughes speak during the investigation of 40 million, CriticalPast (1947) – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xJ_aZ-bhkw – The Big Fraud – Savings and Loan Crisis, Myth of the 20th Century (2018) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2018/11/14/the-big-fraud-savings-and-loan-crisis/ – World’s largest plane destroyed in Ukraine, Guy (2022) – https://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/antonov-an-225-largest-plane-destroyed-ukraine-scli-intl/index.html – The Aviator, Scorsese (2004) – The 9th Company, Bondarchuk (2005) – Cyprus – a Nation Divided, Myth of the 20th Century (2021) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2021/03/04/cyprus-a-nation-divided/ – San Fransicko: Why Progressives Ruin Cities, Shellenberger (2021) – Nord Stream bombing: Does the needle of suspicion point towards the US?, Sofuoglu (2022) – https://www.trtworld.com/magazine/nord-stream-bombing-does-the-needle-of-suspicion-point-towards-the-us-61383 – THE END NEARS September 24 Doomsday conspiracy grows as official who sparked social media frenzy after weird video breaks silence, Hornik (2022) – https://www.the-sun.com/news/6282565/doomsday-conspiracy-official-weird-video-breaks-silence/ – Zeihan – After Dark – the Collapse of Globalization, Myth of the 20th Century (2022) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2022/10/31/zeihan-after-dark-the-collapse-of-globalization/ – Kanye West doubles down on anti-Semitic tweet, Smith (2022) – https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11311837/Kanye-West-doubles-anti-Semitic-tweet-claiming-calling-bad-business.html – A timeline of Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter, Wile (2022) – https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/twitter-elon-musk-timeline-what-happened-so-far-rcna57532 – Chesa Boudin’s recall is great for San Francisco – and all crime-plagued cities, like NYC, Gelinas (2022) – https://nypost.com/2022/06/08/chesa-boudins-recall-is-great-for-all-crime-plagued-cities/ – Jeff Sachs lab origin intercept – MicroStrategy: Ignore The Haters And Hold Through The Crypto Winter, Investor Trip (2022) – https://seekingalpha.com/article/4568319-microstrategy-ignore-haters-hold-through-crypto-winter – Elon Musk says ‘populist Bomb’ is destroying humanity (2023) – https://fa.news/articles/367769/ – Mexican capo’s arrest a gesture to U.S., not signal of change in drug war strategy, Sherman et. al.

The exchange of goods and services has existed since the earliest forms of civilization, from simple barter arrangements at the local town square to Phoenician traders navigating the Mediterranean with goods from Europe and North Africa. Today, however, the scope of exchange is truly massive, with online commerce coming to dominate nearly all segments of retail, and the scale encompassing transoceanic trade routes totaling 11 billion tons in maritime cargoes in 2021. Underpinning all this lies an extremely complex web of producers, shippers, pipelines, warehouses, and commodities traders that include the massive concerns such as Koch Industries in energy and Glencore in metals, with over 100,000 employees each. Billions of dollars have been made and lost in commodities futures, and as volatility continues to disrupt prices of everyday items from gasoline to grain, the trend of ever tighter global trade integration seen since the end of the Cold War may start to unravel as regional blocks choose to have closer and more reliable supply chains. https://www.bitchute.com/video/rICRukMD3jIe/ https://odysee.com/@myth20c:5/commodities:f Myth of the 20th Century – Episode 247 -The World for Sale – Commodity Trading in Uncertain Times – I, Pencil, Friedman (1980) – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67tHtpac5ws – Trading Places, Landis (1983) – Commodity Market Integration, 1500-2000, Findlay and O’Rourke (2001) – https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w8579/w8579.pdf – The Smartest Guys in the Room: The Amazing Rise and Scandalous Fall of Enron, McLean and Elkind (2003) – Quantum of Solace, Forster (2008) – On speculators and hedgers in currency futures markets: who leads whom?, Röthig (2010) – https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ijfe.410 – The Futures: The Rise of the Speculator and the Origins of the World’s Biggest Markets, Lambert (2012) – Swiss commodity traders under scrutiny at UNCTAD forum, UCTAD (2015) – https://unctad.org/news/swiss-commodity-traders-under-scrutiny-unctad-forum – Hugo Chavez Ruined Venezuela, Papadopoulos (2019) – https://www.realclearhistory.com/2019/02/04/hugo_chavez_ruined_venezuela_10107.html – What is a Commodity Super Cycle?, LePan (2019) – https://www.visualcapitalist.com/what-is-a-commodity-super-cycle/ – The most underrated Bond movie on Netflix reveals a real-world crisis, Yarlagadda (2021) – https://www.inverse.com/science/james-bond-water-war – The World for Sale, Blas and Farchy (2021) – Soviet Cybernetics – Red Plenty, Myth of the 20th Century (2021) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2021/12/09/soviet-cybernetics-red-plenty/ – Cadillac Desert – The American West and Its Disappearing Water, Myth of the 20th Century (2022) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2022/08/30/cadillac-desert-the-american-west-and-its-disappearing-water/ – Zeihan – After Dark – the Collapse of Globalization, Myth of the 20th Century (2022) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2022/10/31/zeihan-after-dark-the-collapse-of-globalization/ – Price War$, Russell (2022) – April 2022 Commodity Market Outlook: The Impact of the War in Ukraine on Commodity Markets, World Bank (2022) – https://reliefweb.int/report/world/april-2022-commodity-market-outlook-impact-war-ukraine-commodity-markets – Interactive Map: Crude Oil Pipelines and Refineries of the U.S. and Canada, Kostandi (2022) – https://www.visualcapitalist.com/interactive-map-crude-oil-pipelines-and-refineries-of-the-u-s-and-canada/ – World Top Commodities Trading Companies List by Market Cap as on Jan 7th, 2022 – https://www.value.today/world-top-companies/commodities-trading – Trends and geography of world seaborne trade in 2021 – https://hbs.unctad.org/world-seaborne-trade/ – Understanding the Nasdaq Veles California Water Index, CME Group – https://www.cmegroup.com/education/courses/introduction-to-the-nasdaq-veles-water-index-futures/understanding-the-nasdaq-veles-california-water-index.html – Visualizing Copper’s Global Supply Chain – https://www.visualcapitalist.com/sp/coppers-supply-chain/ – Futures and Options on Futures – https://thismatter.com/money/futures/futures.htm

Ever since the Great Recession and financial crisis of the late 2000s, the American economic model of building large suburban housing developments with cheap credit and sometimes even cheaper building materials and standards has been called into question. Setting aside all the jobs generated in construction, banking, and other financial intermediation, municipal governments also depend on growth for taxes to pay for not just future development, but often times previous build out phases that did not meet their financial projections. With recent examples of cities such as Jackson, Mississippi and Flint, Michigan failing to cover the maintenance costs of their municipal drinking water, this financial crisis has turned into a health crisis. Tonight, I am joined by returning guest Dark Enlightenment to examine just how widespread these problems are, and potential strategies for getting you and your family away from them. https://www.bitchute.com/video/vNSEiQrP3uxL/ https://odysee.com/@myth20c:5/suburban_redevelopment:a Myth of the 20th Century – Episode 246 – Suburban Redevelopment – The Growth Ponzi Scheme — Brought to you by — very special guest Dark Enlightenment — References — – The Last Valley, Clavell (1971) – The Growth Ponzi Scheme, Marohn (2011) – https://www.strongtowns.org/the-growth-ponzi-scheme/ – Return on investment for government projects, Adam Smith Institute (2012) – https://www.adamsmith.org/blog/tax-spending/return-on-investment-for-government-projects – Capital in the Twenty-First Century, Piketty (2013) – The Highest Return on Investment for your City is not Where you Think, Quednau (2017) – https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2017/5/10/highest-return-on-investment-city-not-where-you-think – San Francisco – where drug addicts outnumber high school students, Matier (2019) – https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/philmatier/article/San-Francisco-where-street-addicts-outnumber-13571702.php – Return on Investment: Transportation Projects Can More than Pay for Themselves in Benefits, Glover (2021) – https://ciitr.tti.tamu.edu/2021/02/23/return-on-investment-transportation-projects-can-more-than-pay-for-themselves-in-benefits/ – A Letter from Joe Minicozzi, Minicozzi (2022) – https://www.urbanthree.com/blog/a-letter-from-joe-minicozzi/ – Jackson, Mississippi, water crisis – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackson%2C_Mississippi%2C_water_crisis

In the world of geopolitics, there are those that decide, and those that recommend. While it is debatable who wields more actual power, it is clear that the number of advisers, consultants, analysts, strategists and self-appointed experts clearly outweighs that of the policy makers. Peter Zeihan, a unique blend of the recommender class, has made a mark recently in business circles for his sweeping forecasts concerning broad reaching topics such as energy, supply chains, military strategy, and the devolution of the globalist world order. Tonight, after we catch up on some Halloween discourse, we speculate as to the motivations of Mr. Zeihan, as well as the implications of what he and his backers seem to see as the transformation of American leadership as the trade and security arrangements of the post-war era break down. https://www.bitchute.com/video/sOoaN6TDAtC4/ https://odysee.com/@myth20c:5/zeihan:7 Myth of the 20th Century – Episode 245 – Zeihan – After Dark – The Collapse of Globalization — References — Great Book of Modern Warplanes, Gunston (1988) Accidental Superpower, Zeihan (2014) Absent Superpower, Zeihan (2017) Disunited Nations, Zeihan (2020) The End of the World is Just the Beginning, Zeihan (2022) Here’s how the Nord Stream gas pipelines could be fixed, Stokel-Walker (2022) – https://www.technologyreview.com/2022/10/03/1060558/heres-how-the-nord-stream-gas-pipelines-could-be-fixed/amp/ Globally critical chip firm tells U.S. staff to stop servicing China customers after Biden export curbs, Kharpal (2022) – https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/13/biden-chip-curb-asml-stops-us-staff-from-servicing-customers-in-china.html China and Semiconductors, Zeihan (2022) – https://zeihan.com/china-and-semiconductors/ BASF seeks ‘permanent’ cost cuts at European operations, Burger (2022) – https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/basf-says-european-operations-need-be-cut-size-permanently-2022-10-26/

According to the BBC, “a false flag is a political or military action carried out with the intention of blaming an opponent for it. Nations have often done this by staging a real or simulated attack on their own side and saying the enemy did it, as a pretext for going to war. The term was first used in the 16th Century to describe how pirates flew the flag of a friendly nation to deceive merchant ships into allowing them to draw near.” Tonight we review some of the more disturbing examples of this phenomenon perpetrated by the US government not against a foreign entity, but rather against its own citizens, whom they are ostensibly sworn to protect. https://www.bitchute.com/video/Ko4jiiZo6uJe/ https://odysee.com/@myth20c:5/false_flags:d Myth of the 20th Century – Episode 244 – Unfriendly Fire – a History of False Flags — References — The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman, Sterne (1759) Flight 93, Markle (2006) False Flags, Piper (2013) – https://www.unz.com/book/michael_collins_piper__false-flags/ Majority in U.S. Still Believe JFK Killed in a Conspiracy, Swift (2013) – https://news.gallup.com/poll/165893/majority-believe-jfk-killed-conspiracy.aspx PATCON, Oklahoma City, and Jesse Trentadue’s Lonely Crusade for Justice, Grigg (2017) – https://libertarianinstitute.org/articles/patcon-oklahoma-city-jesse-trentadues-lonely-crusade-justice/ Never Forget: Hero Cop Who Blew Whistle on OKC Bombing Did NOT Commit Suicide, Syrmopoulos (2017) – https://thefreethoughtproject.com/the-state/okc-bombing-hero-terrance-yeakey Choosing the Light, Snodgres (2018) 9/11, Myth of the 20th Century (2021) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2021/09/11/9-11/ Biden says gun owners would need F-15s and nukes to take on the US gov’t , Morgan (2021) – https://americanmilitarynews.com/2021/06/biden-says-gun-owners-would-need-f-15s-and-nukes-to-take-on-the-us-govt/ INSOMNIA STREAM: PAT-CON EDITION – PART 1, Blackpilled (2022) – https://odysee.com/@Blackpilled:b/patcon1:a

This podcast explores the transformation of the American West through hydrological projects and the limits to growth due to droughts and increasing population. It discusses the history and economic importance of water development, the complexities of water projects, the development of infrastructure, and the impacts of water projects on ecosystems. It also explores the challenges of water source selection and transport, the presence of private military contractors and industrial interests, engineering challenges, and the battle for control of water projects. Additionally, it delves into the construction of the Hoover Dam, the comparison between the Grand Coulee and Hoover Dams, the hydroelectric potential in the American West, and the climate differences and challenges in water development. It further discusses impressive engineering achievements, challenges of water supply and management, the future of hydroelectric power, and the consequences of dam construction.

With the alleged assassination of Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri by US forces and the shooting of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in the past few weeks, conspiracy theories abound as to the motives behind potential realignment in global politics and the media news cycle. Also in the news is economist Jeffrey Sachs making a reappearance, apparently lending support to the theory that COVID-19 may have been a US bioweapon. With ZeroHedge coming out saying the US has no confirmation of al-Zawahiri’s death, however, and the clouds of economic recession on the horizon, we gather tonight to discuss what all this may portend for the future of the global order. https://www.bitchute.com/video/U4xHAGLMVtvf/ https://odysee.com/@myth20c:5/assassination:3 Myth of the 20th Century – Episode 242 – Assassination – After Dark — References — Dr. Jeffrey Sachs, Shock Therapist, Passell (1993) – https://www.nytimes.com/1993/06/27/magazine/dr-jeffrey-sachs-shock-therapist.htmlCommanding Heights: The Battle for the World Economy, PBS (2002) – https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/commandingheights/The Future of the Obama Coalition, Edsall (2011) – https://archive.nytimes.com/campaignstops.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/11/27/the-future-of-the-obama-coalition/Underground – The Tokyo Gas Attack and Japanese Psyche, Myth of the 20th Century (2017) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2017/11/30/underground-the-tokyo-gas-attack-and-japanese-psyche/Standard Operating Procedure – Torture and the Abu Ghraib Scandal, Myth of the 20th Century (2019) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2019/05/22/standard-operating-procedure-torture-and-the-abu-ghraib-scandal/Princes of the Yen – The Rise and Fall of Japan, Inc., Myth of the 20th Century (2020) – https://myth20c.wordpress.com/2020/11/20/princes-of-the-yen-the-rise-and-fall-of-japan-inc/Leaked Amazon Whole Foods Docs: Workforce Diversity Helps Prevent Unions, Menahan (2020) – https://www.newswars.com/leaked-amazon-whole-foods-docs-workforce-diversity-helps-prevent-unions/American Pravda: “The Truth” and “The Whole Truth” About the Origins of Covid-19, Unz (2021) – https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-the-truth-and-the-whole-truth-on-the-origins-of-covid-19/Jeffrey Sachs Presents Evidence of Possible Lab Origin of Covid-19, Lerner (2022) – https://theintercept.com/2022/05/19/covid-lab-leak-evidence-jeffrey-sachs/Famed economist Robert Shiller says there is a ‘good chance’ of a recession—it’s a ‘self-fulfilling prophecy’, Daniel (2022) – https://fortune.com/2022/06/08/recession-prediction-economist-robert-shiller-inflation-consumer-confidence/Myth20C On CIA ‘Mind Control Torture’, BannedHipster (2022) – https://bannedhipster.home.blog/2022/07/29/myth20c-on-cia-mind-control-torture/The inside story of how America tracked down and killed Ayman al-Zawahiri, Tomilson et. al.

Since the industrial revolution and the advent of fossil fuels in place of manual labor powering nearly all aspects of civilization from agriculture to transportation to manufacturing, human productivity and population have exploded, going from under 1 billion in 1750 to a projected population of 10 billion in 2100. In the 20th century, oil became the central resource to command national economies and armies alike, playing a central role in geopolitics to this day. But as the industry faces dwindling reserves and competing alternative technologies in the 21st century, companies like ExxonMobil stand out as an unashamed proponent of hydrocarbons, being America’s largest oil and gas company and one of its most profitable. As the primary heir to the Standard Oil legacy, the company offers a unique glimpse into what America used to be, and raises the question of how much longer that can remain the case.

From the 14th through the early 20th century, the Middle East consisted of a hybrid civilization composed of various tribes and peoples stretching from the Balkans down through the Arabian Peninsula under the auspices of the Ottoman Empire. To its promoters, Constantinople administered a multicultural society that balanced ethnic and religious differences into a harmonious whole. To its detractors, the Ottoman regime was a decadent, degenerate ruling class that lived above the poverty of its servants and relied upon an endless supply of slaves to feed its military and royal harems. In the end, economic and political weakness led to the empire’s unraveling, as nationalism in the wake of the first world war broke the back of the empire and led it to the carve up into the modern Turkish state and the surrounding nations. https://www.bitchute.com/video/iZ9RtigXax4Q https://odysee.com/@myth20c:5/ottomans:4 Myth of the 20th Century – Episode 240 – Sunset of the Ottomans — Brought to you by — Very special guest Borzoi — References — Lawrence of Arabia, Lean (1962)The Sultans, Barber (1973)Age of Empires II, Microsoft (1999)The Ottoman Endgame, McMeekin (2016)The Fall of the Ottomans, Rogan (2016)Useful Enemies, Malcolm (2019)The Ottomans, Baer (2021)
