Well, it didn't surprise me. Let's talk about that today.

Hello everyone, I am Dr. Chris Martinson of Peak Prosperity, and we're continuing with our great taking series here.

0:28.1

That wonderful series by David Rogers Webb, that book, and we are going deep in.

Today we have to talk about the CIA connection because, you know, listen, all of money is power.

0:39.3

1:37.5

You know, when times are good, Wall Street gives all these huge profits and bonuses and manufacturers, millionaires, and billionaires
