Yes Bill, Obama Care was another BS globalist creation to help shrink the American middle class. If anyone was able to read and complete the 2200 plus pages of complete BS, you are now either brain dead or mentally broken, as are most of America’s leaders( not that anyone of them read it, they were just hired that way) 🤔…. Anyway, I did try to retire last year, and enjoy the fruits of my 50 years of hard labor. Because of my wife’s very small business, we had to pay $2200 a month for our “Affordable Care BS” and I just refuse to do that…so I will continue to labor, and do what a man does to survive, while continuing to support the many millions of not so hard workers, along with 6 plus million illegals our brilliant politicians have sent to us. More BS?, not according to democrats 🤔

Same conundrum Brother Steve. I'm past ready and able to hang it up - but not so well-off as to be able to afford Health "insurance."

So I keep answering that 4:30am buzzer, everyday...

I know brother, you really can’t make this shit up! We all know that cash is needed to finance the nuclear bombs they need to bring in the Final chapter of the Great Reset. All problem, reaction, solution to their end game. Just don’t know if it will be planted in the States, or an EMP(most likely) event. Should occur after the start of our Electronic Digital Currency, shutting it all down🤔

An EMP event is almost certain to be "their" choice . not so much of a mess, but will get the result "they" require. Oh and what was Maui all about, a test for the DEW system perhaps, and a bit of land clearing as a bonus. In OZ the DEW system was used for crowd control , a while back when people were protesting about "mandates"during the lockdowns. Evil clowns all about. Take care.

To add a touch of color & spice, to the 3 letter acronym EMP and Dr Klaus’s need for “Der Great Reset” …

https://mindmatters.ai/2022/03/what-would-it-take-to-survive-an-emp-attack/

So with the likes of Vlad & Kim “ We are BEST FRIENDS for EVER!’ the thought of them on Playstations & giggling

is not Monty Python.

But then, mumble bumble ‘Jo-the-dead-beat-crook’ will take honest advice from SonnyBoy, after short daily 24 hour nap…

JayCee, if I said “thanks for that” for the link to mind matters it would only be sarcastic. I have read many articles about the EMP consequences in the past. It was again frightening to see it thoroughly discussed there. Our world is wide open to the destruction outlined and it doesn’t seem like really anything can be done to protect ourselves in any meaningful way. As they say: God help us!

We need a recession, but we ain’t gonna get one! Our government can’t allow a recession because it would mean “holy hell” unleashed on them.

Let’s all be patient while the next administration is setup for failure in 2024.

Should be politics at it’s worst.

In the meantime. My gasoline, groceries and utilities go inflate higher & higher.

And we collectively borrow more so the whole stinking carcass gets much larger.

If I could I would slug the politicians in the mouth. Totally inept politicians.

Thanks democrats!

For being “Thrown in a heap” you still are tidier and smarter than most. Thanks.

And as for Inflation in the Pampas if the dark-horse candidate could come up with a catchy slogan related to “Jav-Mi” ....our bushy side-burned bandito might persuade the masses to “Have Him”.

( Yes...translation elegance might be tricky. But the English speaking press should have a field day.)

Onwards.

Have you read the book “The Great Taking”? It’s an informative book that explains how the laws have quietly been changed to allow people’s stock securities and bonds to be legally confiscated by the banksters during a financial meltdown. Parallel Systems on YouTube covers the book very well.

‘The median man in 2023 earns the same real, median wage he did in 1975.’

The reality of 2023, is the family household income vs 1975, have greater 2 full/part time income contributors to family earnings, for ‘wealth’ creation.

If they have been mindful family spenders and budgeted appropriately, they’ve often been able to be better heeled, even a little capitalist type initiatives to boot !

In OZ any extra income is used to buy trinkets, like flash boats, and bling cars they don't need, but gee they sure look cool. Plan for the future, what could possibly go wrong!

Based on recent US government data (https://www.eia.gov/outlooks/aeo/narrative/index.php#ExecutiveSummary), the United States uses roughly 20 million barrels of crude oil per day as of 2022. The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve is authorized to hold 714 million barrels of oil which is a 35 day supply of oil in an emergency. Current levels (June 2023) are roughly 347 million barrels which is a 17 day supply (https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=pet&s=mcsstus1&f=m). World crude oil usage is about 100 million barrels per day.

Dirtbag Joe and his merry band of domestic enemies are only waiting for it to hit $100+/barrel, THEN they'll refill.

The modern dimocrat "party" - always waiting to take action when it will do the most harm.

I knew the U.S. SPR was low, per Bill and Dan, but I didn't realize the U.S. is down to a 35-day emergency supply. (And six weeks still to go in the hurricane season.) Recently, Jamie Dimon is sticking to his belief that crude oil could rise to $120-$150/barrel in the near future. He's been saying this since Summer 2022 based on the--radical--shift to alternative energy. And now he's saying the 10-year U.S. Treasury note could hit 5.5%. If both turn out to be true, ouch!!! We will see what the Fed, Saudis, and Russians do in 2024. They appear to be controlling things in the U.S. now and into 2024 (thanks to the U.S./WestEur. neocons), economically and politically.

Hi Mr. Westmoreland -

Don't poo-poo the devastating effects of Puddin'head's "Sanctions."

Devastating for US, that is...

Expand full comment

But pumping capacity limits us to about a million barrels per day that we can withdraw. Thus the SPR only affects supply at the margin.

Are you stating the US gobbals up 20% of world consumption! Umm?

Expand full comment

Yes. Energy consumption is linearly proportional to wealth.

Migrants know this.

Other groups do their best to suppress and gaslight this dependence.

The truth may not set you free, but will make you mad as Hell. Appreciate BPR truth seekers and integrity. TGIF & Tequila! And maybe Malbec to wash it down.

Has anyone at BPR ever researched what percentage of your investment portfolio you would have to have in XOP to even come close to offsetting the increase in the price of oil?

Expand full comment

If your referring to one's increase in gasoline costs vs. profits in XOP its going to depend on driving habits and how much one invested in XOP. For me personally the gains in XOP have exceeded my increase in gasoline costs.

Good point! I just wondered if there were any simple formulas where you could plug in numbers and get an indication.

Tucker Carlson’s exchange of $100 into Argentina’s fiat was a one-sided view. Actual use of that exchanged fiat in Argentina gives more insight to American readers.
