Summary

| 0:00.0 | They will use terrorism and money laundering as the justification, and they will use fear to basically push people into this, |
| 0:08.0 | thinking that if we don't move to this type of system, people won't be safe. |
| 0:17.0 | Aaron Day, so good to see you again. |
| 0:20.9 | Great to see you. |
| 0:21.5 | Aaron and I know each other. |
| 0:22.9 | I think we first met it. |
| 0:24.8 | It was a Brownstone event. |
| 0:27.2 | That's where I think we first sort of ran into each other, but we've known about each |
| 0:30.6 | other for a while. |
| 0:31.6 | So we have a huge overlap in terms of what we do in the world. |
| 0:35.1 | As you know, I'm out here saying things are going to change and do you do a root cause analysis of what's happening in the world. And you know what you get down to? Money. You get down to money. Unsound money leads to unsound outcomes. And so one of my big concerns, Aaron, has been that we have all this worry about, like, we live in a corrupt society now.

| 1:33.5 | CBDCs are just a more programmable form of fiat currency. |
| 1:37.0 | So every fiat currency in human history has collapsed. |
| 1:40.9 | There are zero exceptions. |
| 1:42.4 | Most currencies only last 27 years. So the real issue is |
| 1:46.0 | states involvement in money, and that usually leads to printing money or debasing currency, |
| 1:51.0 | which leads to collapse. So what I've been doing is going around the country doing workshops, |
