Yeah I’m aware there was nefarious people in the background, there always is. But they didn’t create it. They saw a opportunity and exploited or marketed it. The woman didn’t need their permission. What they did need is better or safe child care and some with assistance and fair wages or equal wages. They made a excuse for paying men more money for the same job and being male didn’t mean they were better at it. Male or female if their better at it or do more work they should get paid more or someone else will. But these excuses they made alone was only to cheat people. I remember one male nurse back in the 80s because I made more than him when he got hired they paid him dollar more hr because he was a male but wanted me to keep a secret from other girls because that’s what they told him.
Im sure it did help textiles and factories till unions or wacko clueless people like AOC and taxes drove them out plus more restaurant options and fast foods for non skilled. Hard to talk about bringing them back with the same problems will be waiting for them because they same kind of politics is still around to cause them.
But those times are gone now. More address needs to be to the inflators and the causes. The ones causing prices going up.
It’s such a mess now that we’ll probably have to crash and burn. Who’s going to fix it? The same kinda people who caused it. This isn’t the 60s anymore. I see what your saying about imports who also tried to change producers into consumers and trying to do the same to normalize it to kids. But no one did anything about the things going on causing it and they also voted for people in party’s causing it.
Now they’re working on replacing people with robots all together.
If they don’t care why should we. We need people who can think in these times the mess and up to the challenges they were left with not people thinking or living in the past.
Should of would of isn’t gonna undo what’s already past.

@goldilocks Rockerfeller Said Half The Population, Woman, are not paying taxes and Financed Ms. Magazine
Rockerfeller also was trying to keep the population down and promoted abortions. Unfortunately we created room for immigrants from Mexico that love to have kids. My grandfather came here in 1906 had 8 kids and his wife didn’t have to work. He was unskilled labor too. Try to imagine how much money you would need today to support a wife and 8 kids. 6 were girls and 2 boys. $300,000 before taxes? Thats how much he was making at about 30 cents an hour. I don’t have time now to fully respond to your note.

“Feminism Was Created To Destabilize Society, Tax Women and set…
Mr Cooper
Is that how you interpret it? They were too well off ? The whole world was not run by unions. Getting more pay for things about anybody could learn was part of the problem. Over charging like mechanics “ not all” was part of the problem. Some guy in a union tightens the lugs on a tire for 15.00 hr when minimum wage was 4 dollars a hour and pushed the cost on the rest of the world was part of the problem. How many women did they hire? Who did they vote for, who did they donate to. Push over politics has gone to far now, it’s become a criminal enterprise. They don’t even try to hide it anymore and going after freedom of speech and censorship.
I remember the 60 s and my older friends jumping into marriage right out of high school. It didn’t end in happily ever after complicate with kids and no work skills or child care because they were raised to take care of the family. As time went on those beliefs by both men too carried over to if a woman did get a job they still had to do all the domestic work by themselves. Men’s excuse is that’s women’s work. That caused more divorces by emotionally and physically exhausted women. Your forgot to mention the hippies and free love and why get married and have responsibilities type of guys.
Basically why grow up or maybe some of those drugs and alcohol at all those bars where women complained spent there paycheck for the rent, mortgage or grocery’s caused them brain damage. So the government didn’t create women’s lib, ,women already did for survival but of course the government and their printing press for their special interest projects and now growing pay for play also to blame
What businesses were you referring to that didn’t pay taxes? Low level vendors that don’t make much , drug cartel, looters?
Did you that women dominated jobs were the lowest paid jobs back then and some still are but many required skill so finally started fighting back because they couldn’t just replace them with a illegal immigrant. Not at first anyways. Foreign country’s found a need for these jobs and created school factory’s next. The US corporates loved that idea at first anyways till problems and law suits complicated things.
Now dumbing down and messing with kids heads.
Now even Catholic churches turning into criminal enterprises.
And so you think all that money these so called representatives criminal are waisting for their own interest and putting us in debt, that taxes should be raised so the working class can pay for it?.
Not to mention the neocons who alway find money for war but never for the poor. That sounds more like Zimbabwean economics. Next it will cost 400 for a loaf of bread. And now what do we have to back our currency with, gold, nope, oil, nope bidenomics, nope.
When I listen to you past posts it seems to be limited to just this country. It kinda makes me feel like say if you were sitting in a cabin or the other way around a TP talking about the immediate area while paying no attention to those seven tribes casing the place starting to surround you and then pounce on you and rip you off of your crops and livestock while their at it.
Buygold @ 15:55 re the COTS
Wouldn’t that be great if we could trust the numbers the Gov and exchanges gave us. As I get older I’m increasingly embracing the wisdom of George Carlin:
“I have certain rules I live by. My first rule … I don’t believe ANYTHING the government tells me … NOTHING.”
That being said I still read the COTS and try to figure out what they mean …
Carlin is great
“So I say, “Live and let live.” That’s my motto. “Live and let live.” And anyone who can’t go along with that, take him outside and shoot the motherfucke*. It’s a simple philosophy, but it’s always worked in our family.”

Maddog @ 12:30
“The BRICS currency” Good point, I don’t know how he overlooked that one. It may or may not be announced at their SA get together but we know it’s coming eventually. You’ve got to figure the standard of living in the USA and EU is going to get smashed.
Going to be some chaos when it’s found that each oz of real gold is claimed by beaucoop paper claimants! I’m just hoping the US still owns some gold!
goldielocks @ 10:57
As you are aware, our biggest problem is that our leaders are hell bent on destroying the country as quickly as possible. They are doing this in numerous ways. Maybe their dream is seeing Chinese troops marching down Broadway, I don’t know.
“emptying the SPR” That’s a good example of the damage Joe Dementia is doing!
Those sailors selling secrets to the Chinese should face the maximum punishment!
Mr.Copper @ 10:52
I think if we barred all imports of manufactured goods which I don’t really think is practical the debt blob would still be there. Eventually it will be repudiated or inflated away in which case the dollar won’t be worth a Wiemar mark. I wish this wasn’t so …
Here’s the COT’s
Banksters have now covered 10K shorts of the 25K in silver they put on 2 weeks ago.
Gold appears to be a bigger problem for them, as they had to unload quite a few long contracts to cover 19K shorts. Funds didn’t get too spooked. Gives me some hope that they are having to exert energy to move prices lower.

Shares holding up pretty well unless they get us in the last hour
Not sure why with the SM down, just oversold I guess.
Course, we’re getting robbed in the metals considering rates are down hard and the dollar is down with them.
Has to be the Fed in there buying, who else would?
ZH has a good article on the phony jobs reports. Every month in 2023 has had downward revisions. All those numbers do is fit whatever narrative they need. Absolutely no basis in reality. This economy is crashing. JMHO
Maddog
We’ll see. The Kenyan president said they wouldn’t be announcing the gold backed currency at the meeting.
Regardless, the rats will figure out a way to hose us. Gold should be moving up in advance don’t you think?
ipso facto
Re 9 reasons They forgot the Brics currency…..as I said to Buygold…the worlds largest commodity producers, will soon demand Brics as payment….once Crimex is empty and London, if it ain’t already, where will the Gold come from down at these prices…they will need another nought on it……it also screws the paper sellers, completely…as paper doesn’t count.
Buygold
patience…Brics is coming and soon if u want to buy any commodity from Russia , SA, Brazil and Opec, u will have to pay with Brics and that means buying real Gold….no paper allowed…..the paper sellers are going to be stuffed…….and anything in Crimex will be out of the door in no time…then who is gonna sell down here in size….We ain’t, not till they stick another nought on the price….sod ’em.
@ goldilocks re your “the reasons it happened” was the people of the USA were too well off
The lower end starter wages were very high at $1.75/hr. Kids just out of high school were buying new cars in 1970. I got out of high school in 1962 and by 1963 had a new car. By 1965 I was married. By 1967 I had two kids. Unions were confounding businesses trying to keep up with inflation. Their media blamed the unions for the inflation caused by dropping the Gold standard after 1971.
Then they created the womans liberation movement to increase the labor supply to lower wages. Then they started us importing cheaper goods and jacked up inflation in interest rates to 21% to get inflation numbers down. Meanwhile, low interest rates of 6% were not the cause of inflation. Imo its over. Those trends can’t go on. They HAVE to raise the starter wage to $40/hr to equal the old $2/hr. That alone would raise all other wages.
P.S. The situation, over time, has caused and created millions of self employed business people that make tons of cash and don’t pay taxes on it. If they were employed by a business instead, they would have no choice and no good deductions.
As usual
We should be doing a lot better, but we’re not, because p.m. life just isn’t fair😝
Mr Copper
I think we’re beyond that now.There not gonna change.and the reasons it happened including the business and unions who go too greedy like cars wanting all the gas guzzling over priced muscle cars and who did their unions donate to and vote for? What did they get in return, higher taxes and economical completion while others said forget it and left the country. Why should they all change they don’t listen, their responsibilities to the public or economy or even common sense, only riots but the law abiding citizens don’t riot. Only the clueless who want the government to take care of them and think money grows on trees.
Ipso
It makes me wonder their plan, if they even have one. Sell the country out to the highest bidder like they’ve been doing? Then realize those dollars they laundered are worthless? Create a new digital currency with the mark of the beast for their followers? Did you hear about their new equity woke recruits getting caught selling military info that could put the navy at risk and still could?! And no concern since this idiotic current administration of so called representatives China looks to take advantage with all sorts of spying on military and looks like they want to plan a attack.
Yeah on energy and of course you know who drained the oil reserves to curb the higher prices he caused. It’s not so much the catastrophe they’re causing that’s stressing people out but the republicans reluctance or inability to do anything about it or even part of the problem. They’re not even paying attention to the ground work of the election or voting integrity but the devilcrats are.
@ipso facto re part: “Observation #1: The US government can’t repay its debt. Default is inevitable.”
There is only one way to fix that. Pass laws to bar cheaper imports. Manufacturing (the birth of wealth) would make new US production businesses very profitable and all there their new highly paid employees would all be paying higher taxes. Budget surpluses, thats how it was 1945 to 1975. Unfortunately, giving away all our wealth producing work to Asia plus after 1970 has taken its toll.
I knew all this was going to happen back in the early 1970s when I was punching a time clock. I knew increased foreign competition would kill profits and kill wages and hence kill taxes. All they left us with was wealth and tax absorbing jobs. Especially those stupid environment jobs. They are a drain on the whole system.
goldielocks
I think that paradigm shift is a long term deal. There really is no way out of the debt problems except default. I know we have been waiting for a giant gold spike for a very long time but I believe it’s not too far away. We may see some good moves in the short term too if the dollar is topping right now … or maybe not …
Energy seems a good place to invest now too.
Ipso
Looks like we’re having a bit of paradigm shift here but it’s not helping much. But it might down the road as well as Bitcoin because even some gold bugs got tired of the games. Now their making regulations for Bitcoin to try to save it from Federal control.
I’m going to be watching energy prices and oil closer for buying ops for real turns but already just moving up quietly. With the screwball administration the buzzards are gathering from all corners and if we wind up in more wars and now Buygold saw another potential one plus we are not even oil independent anymore what’s going to happen to the price. And of course with it will go food again and likely tighter supply issues.
I guess if life is fair
Then the dollar and rates should really help us. 😝
We all know how much that works.😉
The only question is … how long do we have?

Paradigm Shift … hard to argue against the reasoning
9 Reasons Why Gold Will Soon Replace Treasuries As The Ultimate Store-Of-Value Asset
snip
Here is the investment thesis for gold:
Observation #1: The US government can’t repay its debt. Default is inevitable.
Observation #2: It will not be an explicit default.
Observation #3: The debt will continue to grow at an accelerating pace.
Observation #4: Foreigners are not buying as many Treasuries.
Observation #5: The US government cannot allow interest rates to rise much further.
Observation #6: The Federal Reserve is the only big buyer of Treasuries stepping up, which means currency debasement.
Observation #7: The US government will use financial repression to debase the currency in a controlled fashion, though it could spiral into out-of-control inflation.
Observation #8: Treasuries will no longer be the “go-to” store-of-value asset as people look for alternatives.
Observation #9: Gold is the top store-of-value alternative to Treasuries. As demand for Treasuries falls, demand for gold will soar.
In short, we are on the verge of a paradigm shift in international finance as gold replaces Treasuries as the world’s premier store-of-value asset.
The last time the international monetary system experienced a paradigm shift of this magnitude was in 1971.
Then, gold skyrocketed from $35 per ounce to $850 in 1980—a gain of over 2,300% or more than 24x.
I expect the percentage rise in the price of gold to be at least as significant as it was during the last paradigm shift.
That’s because this coming gold bull market could be fundamentally different than other cyclical bull markets. It will be riding the wave of a powerful trend: the re-monetization of gold as the king store-of-value asset. It could lead to the biggest gold bull market ever.
While this megatrend is already well underway, I believe the most significant gains are still ahead.
