Know we've lived under the Federal Reserve the Central Bank you know I mean There there's already a central banking System that's out there and and we've Been dealing with that but now we have Of not digital currency but we have Electronic Banking because a lot of People are like well what's the Difference you know I pull out my credit Card I use it they can track it I mean We live in a surveillance kind of Scenario honestly we do we do you know Not not just with our banking but you Know the the digital devices that we all Carry around in our pockets every day You know they're they're they're Listening devices and you know they can They can be used for good or it can be Used for nefarious purposes you know There's a lot of companies that use it Uh for marketing purposes to be able to Market specific Goods to you based off Of keywords and things that your phone Picks up on that you say and not just Your phone but your anything that you Have that's wired to the internet now uh Your televisions your smart TVs and Stuff like that all can be used to pick Up your your conversations and track Things and be able to submit ads to you That are directly in line with things That you're talking about and interested In well and surveillance cameras and Facial recognition I mean there's a
Bazillion things they can follow you on Your computer they can they can track All that stuff we all kind of know that I mean that's kind of common uh it's It's good in some ways a lot of Criminals you know have been throated From getting away with crimes we've seen That with uh you know and some of the Technologies and a lot of it can be used For good but a lot of it can be used uh It's according to who who's at the helm And Um you know unfortunately we live in a World of of bureaucrats in a sense uh You know it's not necessarily our Elected officials right you know it's Other people that are controlling this And one of the things that Rothschild Said many years ago is give me control Over a country's money and I don't care What laws they come out with Money is the control that controls Everything it will shut you down we've Seen with the uh up in Canada and They've really done some things Especially with the freedom trucker Movement where they went in and seized Bank accounts they closed down Businesses they stop credit I mean they Really came in hard on those guys And Justin Trudeau in fact I saw this Word uh Tulsi gabbard was talking about It and she showed a small clip of Trudeau saying oh I I'm all about
Protest I think it's very important to Have protest he goes until you start Protesting government policies he goes That's just wrong well that is wrong That is big time that I mean what else Are you going to protest We're gonna protest this so uh you know It's it's government policies and things That that that's one of the biggest Reasons why we have protests and because Of some of the the changes that we want To see made well when we lose our Financial power altogether uh it really Starts to get scary now and guys already Again the fight the feds already in Place the central bank's been doing this For years but you know we have banking We have our local banks we have Electronic Banking through our local Banks and through other means and then We have like a venmo and PayPal and Different apps to be able to you know Access our funds The one thing about those is they're Petitioned They are separate I'm going to give you An example yesterday or not Saturday Saturday went to the gun show uh on the Way I had cash because I was I was Looking for a couple of things and so I Stopped by the ATM I thought you know What I'm gonna get a little bit extra Just in case and so I go and I get 400 Out you know
And so I get to the gun show I find Something that you know I'm like oh man This is a great deal which was Surprising enough and uh I but I had my Own something else and so I went ahead And I made a purchase Well I needed just a little bit more Just a little bit more to make a Purchase on this other item and so I Went they had an ATM machine there so I Went put my card in it was declined now I had plenty of money in the bank and I Knew it but I was like what and I looked At the receipt and it said you've Extracted or you've uh withdrawn your Maximum for your limit for the day now I Had it in the card and it wasn't a big Deal and I kind of went okay whatever I'm just not going to do it but here's The thing guys They are contr even on the smaller level They're controlling the amount of money That I could access with that card now Because of the petition or partition I Could take a different card and I can go And I can use it and I can withdraw Funds or I can go to another card or you Know especially with PayPal you can't Even buy gun parts and guns and things Like that and so they're already Limiting your availability toward those Products but I can go to my other card Or my other card or you know and I can Get around it or I can take cash
And this is probably the biggest Danger So we had this system to where Everything is partitioned we have some Safeguards because we're not stuck under One system Andrew Tate whether you like him or love Him I mean you know a very controversial Figure in the world a lot of things have Been leveled against him And so this is one of the things I just Saw this interview on Patrick Bet David On valuetainment and uh he had gotten a Strike on his YouTube channel where they Had this documentary they were getting Ready to publish so they were waiting For the strike it because it limits you For like 10 days you can't upload Anything Right before the the 10-day window was Closed and he can go ahead and upload His video YouTube came in and shut his channel Down and then they shut down every Different app every social media Platform he had they shut them all down All at the same time they started Shutting them down to where he had no Voice well no voice even Uber shut his Account down wow I mean it was like all These even outside of just Financial or Social media or they just across the Board started shutting him down Listen guys if you're watching this Channel
You know you're not necessarily in the Mainstream one of the things that most People do uh is uh you know they they Just live life they go work their job They're not thinking about Prepping they're not thinking about Putting things back uh they're a little Bit outside the norm they kind of they They contend I mean like for me I am a Supporter of government I think we we Need government we need that governance And it should protect our rights and Should protect our laws and when they Don't then I'm you know I feel like we Need to call them out and we need to Keep them in line we need to stay active But I might be considered Kind of a rebel you and your business Yep I mean what all the restrictions that You deal with on a regular basis yeah I Mean you know even like with the this Past week with the new uh Arm brace band changing the definition Of what a rifle is and what a pistol is And you know now they've made felons out Of you know potentially up to 40 million People in the United States by a ruling Change and you know they give those People like 90 days to be able to Register those those Firearms as a short Railed rifle which is really just a a Backdoor gun registration method that They're using but you know you you can
Either register your firearm or or take The brace off or destroy it you know or Surrender it to the ATF and you know It's just it's just a backdoor gun Because it was all that it is yeah but And steering but you know until it's Overturned in the courts you know you Either abide by the law or you're a Felon or you face a consequence right You know we did a video on sensible on Suits Channel about this and we just Kind of laid it out of this is what the ATF is saying these are your options we Got hammered because people were Thinking that we were going along with It listen we are not going along with it We're going to fight it but there are Parameters that we have to do especially Being on social media I mean we've got a Voice here and for me to go do not Comply and do you know I mean uh I have My own feelings about it but that Doesn't necessarily mean that I'm going To be vocal that's right at certain Points uh because if anybody I've got More to lose than There's very few people that have more To lose than what I do with this whole Ruling so it's a real big mess uh but Aside the point you're right yep and you Know and I even I even live streamed the The ATF webinar last week on my YouTube Channel for people to be able to watch What the ETF was saying that that they
Wanted with this new ruling so there was Because there were so many so much Misinformation about it and I really Wanted people to understand What the ATF was asking for so I live Streamed the uh the entire the entire Stream from the ATF and put that on my YouTube channel for people to watch and Have a reference where they could go Back to and be able to reference this Well and yeah and and you should check That out it's on Robbie's Channel but we Were talking about you know incremental Freedoms that we have that we enjoy so Now what what does this mean now Obviously you know we haven't gone to That yet we're heading to it Um and I think Biden's actually Put an executive order out saying that He wants us to go to a digital currency By 2024 I think it is he's a two-year Window But it has to have approval by Congress So this is not something that's Happening tomorrow it's but it's it's Coming Now listen it makes to most people It's like so what yeah I mean I use my Debit card for most everything anyway Right I don't care and you know I'm Going to go out here and I'm going to Buy this I'm gonna buy that the problem Is is if you're on that Side like we are to where we go by
Ammunition gun parts I stock up food you Stock up food or you should and I'm Buying supplies for water I'm buying Propane maybe I'm stocking up some Things because I see some dangers Happening right what happens when you Get a your your card is like you're Limited you put it in it's like you can Only buy four of those uh let's say that There are economy the economy has a Downturn Uh and one of the things that's it's Kind of funny and this is what the Government does a lot of times they'll Dump cash like Reimbursements are just money into the System and people can go spend it and it Brings the economy back up the economy Artificially props up the economy and so In fact I think it was in England they Did a thing where they said hey you know We're going to give you this money You've got so much time to spend it and So people ran out they had like a Thousand dollars so they could run out They could just spend it you know and um And buy these things and they did it Just to kind of boost the economy uh and It's one thing that we've seen just like With when Kobe relief and all that stuff It was to keep the economy popping and It wasn't really producing anything but It was it was spending now let's say That we have a gas shortage
Like we did let's say we have a Cyber Attack And you go to the gas station you put Your card in and you can only get ten Dollars worth of gas Well they're like you don't you don't Need to hoard that let's say that food Production is having some issues I go and put my card in I can only have So much I can spend It can limit every part of your life That's right now let's say we go buy Some ammunition you know I was on Patreon live last night we were talking A little bit about this and I said you Know in the news if you look at Headlines Somebody that has a thousand rounds of Ammunition and five guns has an arsenal And I said I probably got that in the Back of my car right now That's rolling around in the floorboard Of the car people you know the thing is Is and this is the one problem is who is In control are they going well why do You need that what are you doing with That what is you what do you you know It's loss of privacy Typically I like to use cash now here's The big thing with digital currency There will not be cash you will lose Cash every transaction will have to be Done let's say Robbie has a gun And I want to buy it well here's South
Carolina it's perfectly legal for us to Do a private transaction with nothing as Long as you know we know that each other Not felons I go and I say hey man I give you 400 For that uh HK uh MP5 That's a bargain and let's say I give Him the cash I take it I'm great What about under a digital currency Right It'll have to be tracked I can't Transfer that money to him unless it's Under a digital file of some sort now Yeah I could say oh it was for you know Whatever for a go card or something you Know I could do that toothbrushes and Toothpaste man we really need a lot of Dental teeth but toothbrush but you know I mean the thing is is it is going to Invade every part of your privacy that's Right that's right and you know to me That's the scariest part about the Entire thing is with any type of digital Currency is that you give up all of your Privacy whatsoever anything that you buy Anything that you sell anything that you Purchase is being tracked and it's being Monitored Now can that be used for good sure it Could absolutely be used for good it can Be used to serve up ads for you like we Were talking about earlier to be able to To show you things that you may be Interested in but it can also be used in
A very nefarious Way by controlling you Controlling your family and controlling What you can and can't spend your money On well like money laundering I mean That that's something you know that that Has been abused to people that are Private citizens you know that they want To know how much you're spending why are You spending that money what are you Doing uh it was made to stop criminal Activity right and that is an upside to It is that it can it can it can limit You know drug deal transactions things Like that but it can also tax you on Everything you do Well you know it's not just the text That you're paying on everything that You do that one of the big things for me One of the big concerns for me is your Money is not going to be worth what it Was worth before because you're going to Be charged a transaction percentage on Every transaction that you do just like With credit cards you you buy something On your debit card you the bank or Whoever is processing it they're Charging a percentage to process that You know it could be anywhere from a Tenth of a penny to a penny or two Pennies or even three pennies just it Just kind of depends on the transaction And how it's and how it's ran through Their system whether it's a credit card Or a debit card but you're paying a
Transaction fee for every purchase that You make If we switch over to an entirely digital Currency every penny that you spend is Going to have a transaction fee attached To it so somebody's going to be getting Extremely rich off of you where you're Actually losing money and your dollar is Being devalued or your your digital Currency at that point is being devalued Well you know one thing we've seen Lately and we're going to go to some Questions if you have some questions go Ahead and put them down we're going to Take a break here in just a second but Um then I forgot what I was talking About uh that that figures it used to be An old man Um but okay let's let's switch gears for A second well before we go to social I Want to talk about the social credit Score in China uh that's definitely Something that is that is big but you Know one of the the big things right now Is Um you know if you want to have a side Gig If you want to do something you know and That's where a lot of businesses start Out I mean that was for me for YouTube Honestly I was doing it just for fun I Just like Hey listen they shoot guns I'm Going to shoot some guns on video and I Just started shooting it I didn't even
Realize it but I've always had these Side gigs on the side uh one of the Things they've done now is they're Monitoring any kind of income that You're coming up with if you're being Paid on venmo or PayPal or whatever up To if you get paid over six hundred Dollars let's say you have an Etsy Account you know you know you're hand Carving some cool wood or whatever You're selling them on Etsy if you've Made over six hundred dollars the at or The ATF the FB man if I get my my Acronym correct acronym right the IRS Uh is getting notified and now you're You're liable for that tax money that's Right and so you know it's getting more And more intrusive into your life I mean What is six hundred dollars and you know The thing is you know it's getting more Facial recognition you know uh voice Recognition the way you walk right I Mean they are tracking everything and With that if they're tracking your money Let's say that politically You're opposed to what's going on Man you have a big stamp on your head Now let me let me say this and we're Going to go to questions You know for a long time uh well back in Biblical days around uh the the Beginning of this of uh of the the Millennials or when Christ was was in on The earth he talked about how you will
Not be able to buy sell and trade Without a mark now I'm not saying that This is the mark of the beast but I am Saying that it's been prophesied for Generations for thousands of years that This was coming and it's something that We definitely need to notice and go you Know what yeah there's some good things But the dangers far outweigh the good That's right one of the things that America has always been about is just The risk and about Taking Chances and Doing things and and it creates Innovation and it creates it inspires People to do great things and this just Brings it down and limits us so um got Some questions for us Sarah Mack Uh Ernie Andrews asks or says happy to See you nice background what can we Learn from Turkey Well besides our big earthquake that's Happened in Turkey Um I know that a lot of people Um you know with uh in Greece Greece was Another one where the banks just I mean They they went to the ATM and they had You know limited funds to pull out and a Lot of the things with especially with Turkey being part of the EU there's a And that's another thing the EU is Another example of control of economies Um but as far as specifically a question That you're asking about turkey you know I'm not really I'm not sure I know
They've had a lot of economic downturns So has Greece over the past few years in A number of countries and these things Lead people to accept things that they Really shouldn't one of the biggest Takeaways that I've seen from Turkey Recently is don't live in a high-rise Yeah don't live in a high-rise but I'm Not really up on all the like I say the Financial stuff that's going on in Turkey but I know that there are a lot Of issues Uh Lindsey Dills says question any ideas On how to protect cars and devices from An EMP Well you know there are a lot of things Out there the one thing about an EMP is That it's never actually happened you Know I mean they've done some testing With them but and they've had solar Flares that have burned up Telegraph Lines and they know there's a potential Solar flares but um they've really never Tested it so to know exactly what is Vulnerable yep you know as far as Vehicles go your newer Vehicles if EMP Happened today and it works as Advertised Your vehicle is going to be dead and There's not a whole lot you're going to Be able to do about it unless you've got A bunker that you can bury your car in Um one thing that you can do as far as a Vehicle is purchase an older vehicle
That is mechanical you know whether it's A mechanical diesel or mechanical who Runs on gas and has points and a Carburetor then you've got new digital Or Electronics inside the vehicle that Could be short-circuited by an EMP your Older vehicles will still be able to run They'll still be able to work your Diesels that don't require any type of Electronics to work those will still be Able to function and everything like They're supposed to and then as far as Like your your digital devices and Things like that it's always good to Have a faraday bag that you keep some Stuff like that in or keep one around That you can drop your stuff in in case Something like that does happen you will Have some forewarning I believe in most Cases that there was going to be some Sort of an attack you know unless it's Like a balloon that floats all the way Across our country for a week and you Know is allowed to do whatever I'm just Saying you know that was one thing that Really came up is with the balloon is With the payload that they were carrying Two and a half tons they could easily Have had a nuclear device on there that Detonated That would have caused an EMP at 60 000 Feet it would have been devastating and Not only China which China has more to Lose honestly but you take North Korea
Or Iran or some other Rogue country I Mean the thing is is that is not a very Expensive way to deliver that's right a Nuclear device and detonated nuclear Device especially when you sit there for A week and look at it and just go look At the pretty balloon I mean but you Know the on the flip side of that you Know there I could definitely see some Hesitation toward wanting to pop the Balloon because you don't know what it's Filled with Could that balloon been filled with uh You know any type of radiation could That balloon be filled with NBC you know Nuclear uh material biological material Chemical materials uh sarin gas I mean There's a lot of different things that That balloon could have been filled with That would make you want to hesitate to Pop that balloon just because you don't Know what the ramifications of bursting It were going to be which I think is one Of the big reasons why they waited until It moved off the coast of South Carolina Before they popped it I just think it's Just an embarrassment that for me the Whole thing is all right next question Uh Fed Up American says why does the ATF Get to make laws I thought Well they can't and I think we're going To see uh we've already got a number of Lawsuits on the brace band Um and so that's gonna you know negate I
I really feel that uh with Administrative as much as anything but With brewing with the Brewing case it Gives us a lot more Second Amendment Leeway to be able to attack it uh let me Just say this though and then I'll let You go um one of the things about the Brace rule is there are people that Don't watch YouTube there are guys that Went out and bought an AR-15 pistol Because their buddy had one and they're Like oh this is cool and they go out and Shoot it on the weekends what's to me The scariest thing are those guys who Have no clue go to the range and law Enforcement Picks Them Up and charges Them that's that bothers me as much as Anything but I will say this just this Tip Uh and two the atf's not gonna come Knocking on your door and look for Something it usually has to be attached To something else but if you really want To just kind of go you know what I'm Gonna let this pass because sometimes it Takes time is just to remove the brace And put it over in another section and That's all you have to do to uh abide by This ruling that's it so if you feel That way if you don't give a crap then Don't I mean you know hey I I understand Believe me but um if you do that's the Easiest most simple way that's right and You know it's one of those things that
It is going to have to run its course Through uh through our court system Which you know like we saw with the with The slide fire stocks and bump fire Stocks you know it takes time for that To run through our court system it takes Time for it to get to your appeals Courts it takes time to get to the Supreme Court and then they have to hear The case and they have to decide whether They're going to rule on it or not Um but yes I do agree with you that is One of my biggest fears book hauls there Has been no uh mass media publication Whatsoever you haven't seen anything About the braces on your mainstream Media about those things being illegal Now nothing absolutely nothing and That's that's absolutely my biggest fear All of these people that have bought Them that this you know a lot of guys Buy guns I had a friend of mine by this Morning we were talking and he loves Firearms is a collector but he's not a Shooter he does not shoot very often He's bought a bunch of guns in the last Few years and they just go in his safe And he he likes to collect them he had No idea about the arm brace thing until I told him this morning absolutely no Idea yeah yeah it's scary okay Uh Ralph Stone asked tell me how we will Use silver and gold after collapse and How the government will try to stop the
Use oh they'll try to stop it for sure Um you know one of the things to me is That gold silver Have been means of exchange since they Were found since since they were Discovered uh you know gold into the Earliest documents that you can find uh Definitely the biblical narrative I mean It is gold silver uh has been used it Has intrinsic value To say that that there's not ways that They can kind of make that harder for You to deal with yes but it's also Recognizable it's recognized so if Someone comes to me and let's just take This as an example I'm I don't like the Digital currency I don't want to mess With that I mean I have to to function To have electricity and those things but For the things that I want to deal with That I just don't want everybody and Their brother to know I don't want my Neighbor to know you know that I'm Buying food Um then you know I'll tell you during 2008 when we had our economic downturn There were stores that actually opened Up that accepted silver for purchases And so to me having that it's been again A traditional means of wealth and what Um I've heard it called God's currency and It's something that you can you know People see the what they see the value
To it and so you know if I take a a half Dollar a liberty Walker and I walk in Somewhere and or have with some guy or Whatever and I've actually bought guns That way where I'm taking silver and Traded it for something so um you know It's just uh a means now because we Don't know we can't forecast and predict What can actually happen uh to me it Just helps protect my the value of what I have and if the dollar goes down to Nothing the price of silver and gold is Going to come up and so it's going to Have some means of value to it and I Think that's the biggest thing Uh Harbor prepper mentions my leftist Cousin and brother We're singing praises of the cbdc since It could restrict gun sales until I told Them that it could also restrict alcohol Sales that got their attention Yeah it's not just it can restrict I Mean if you've gone to the liquor store A few times that that can come up and The thing is it's not going to have some Some person sitting there going what are They doing what are they buying I mean This is electronic this is computerized It'll be AI tract right absolutely They'll know everything and so what will Happen is is if you make certain Purchases it'll pop up on this screen And automatically limit you on what You're doing uh you know so let's say
That I've gone out and I've bought you Know a bunch of cans of propane because I'm stocking up on it and it's like oh That's more than your allotment you know I mean it's gonna it but yeah Freedom Ammunition all that kind of stuff I mean We're already having trouble with Certain entities and you talk about gun Control if they ever do pass something They can just go Kunk nope you can't buy Anything there yep that's right so that And then then it would be a hundred Percent yeah back to a bartering for Things where you're trading either gold Or silver or other goods or services to Be able to purchase things that you need Right so that's one so let's go to some Of the solutions and again guys listen Some of us have money in the bank we Have Investments uh we have pensions you Have all this stuff and and your money's Locked in I mean the thing is is if they And if they uh start this with the with The uh the Central Bank uh digital Currency To function you're gonna have to go Through it but let's talk about the Chinese credit system credit score Um this is something China is really on Track to do this faster than anybody Else and for good reason and we know That the traditional problems with China And communism and just the amount of People there but you know they are
Really I mean they're pushing to get This done because it gives them total Control which obviously gives whoever Does this total control over us uh one Of the things that happens is if you're On social media and you're doing so You're saying something you're Criticizing it doesn't have to be a g it Could be just you're criticizing Something that's going on then it clicks On your credit score so it lowers it and Let's say you you do something you're You know you're you're maybe buying Something or you're just doing whatever Or maybe you and your spouse have had a Problem and the law enforcements come it Just continues to click and click and it Lowers your score now let's say I go out And I volunteer at my local homeless Shelter and or I'm doing this then it Clicks up and it gives me more credit But the problem is is a lot of these People now are restricted from International travel They can't go to certain restaurants They can't do certain things and it Limits them China is really more of an Extreme example but it's where we're Headed if we allow this to happen well You know the reality is is it really an Extreme example or is it just the is it Just foreshadowing for what we could see In our own country definitely yeah That's that's the concern I mean they've
Already got all the surveillance cameras Up they're doing all the facial Recognition you know the one thing is in Fact I saw this the other day they were Doing something where a guy was walking Down the street with his girlfriend and Facial recognition picked him up and he Was wanted for some petty crime and they Knew exactly where he was the whole time And they came and picked him up you know Um I mean have you not paid your you Know your County taxes if you missed a Parking ticket you know if you've done Something inadvertently you just forgot I know a while back my son was driving Around his car and he got a notice and He said oh my Tag's been out for like a Couple of months and he was like oh Shoot you know I mean with with this Kind of Technology they're tracking and Here's the thing they will track it even Closer like Robbie said at the beginning We have our phones we have computers we Have all this stuff that they're Tracking already uh what about GPS and You've got all that stuff they can they Can monitor you they can watch you but What happens when they integrate that With our financial system guys freedom Is gone Privacy is gone and you know if you want To live in a vanilla world and you go to Work and you do your little thing and You come home you go to the ball game
And everything's peachy keen then great But if you're kind of like us and we're A little bit on the edge about stuff and You know we're concerned about things And we're wanting to make purchases well It's the big thing is we we just want to Make sure that our family is protected You know that we can provide for our Family that our families protected that We're going to have food we're going to Have the things that we need to live a Happy sustainable life and you know That's why a lot of us pray that's why a Lot of us put our food back we put water Back to make sure that if there are hard Times that we are still we still have The things that we need to survive Comfortably and you know with this Digital currency that's something that We could easily see go away very quickly Is the ability to be able to have a Self-sustaining lifestyle well let's say There's a there's a drought in the area And food production is hard to get and They start to limit the amount of food That you're able to do they did that During World War II where they rationed A lot of things they ration your you Know what you're doing they ration your Tires if you're not driving an electric Car they're right they're you're not Allowed to get parts to fix the car that You have already this gas powered or Diesel let's say with gas stoves which I
Heard that Congress has come in and kind Of stopped that but um you know that's The easiest thing to have it yeah stove And you know you you can't get gas for It let's say that pot your water they Just decided to shut your water off Which they did that at in China when They had coveted restrictions they shut Off in companies that were still working They shut their power off they shut Their water off and they they couldn't Do so it's just a control thing now but Let's let's talk a little bit about some Solutions you know one thing is and I'll Just be quite Frank with you guys is you Know ammunition will be very monitored You you go to buy ammunition honestly Right now to me I I would recommend Especially the closer that this comes Into being is to purchase your Ammunition ahead of time make up make a Focus on that things that the Government's going to really be would be Gaming as a little bit On The Fringe you Know uh I think those kind of things the Other thing is though is if we're Purchasing a lot of food stuff on CR on Our on our Electronic Banking right they Know what you have and let's say they Come to you and you've you've done all These preparations you've invested your Time and your money while your neighbor Has been going to Disney World every Year and tracking trips all over the
Place and buying a new car and you've Restricted yourself so you can provide For your family And the government comes in and says hey You got all this food you know you need To distribute this out you're hoarding That So here's the thing you know things that Are essential to survival and you know One of the big things is I'm sure There's a lot of people watching this And they're they're saying to theirself Well that won't ever happen their Governments never the government's never Going to do that Think about what they did with the Rubber gloves with these companies that Had bought cases and cases and cases and Pallets of rubber gloves and masks to Sell during covid and the government Came in and took them from them all Right under the guise of they were Hoarding and it was hurting the economy Because they were they were overcharging Or price gouging for these items maybe They were price gouging maybe they Weren't hand sanitizer maybe they were Price gouging for it maybe they weren't The end of the day It's supply and demand and its Capitalism all right if you want a Product that somebody has and you're Willing to pay for it then you'll buy it If you don't you won't but
You know I think it was totally wrong For our government to come in and take These products from these companies that Had purchased them legally and seize Those products and distribute those Products out without compensating these People for their products that they had Purchased and so if you don't think that It won't happen or can't happen or Doesn't happen it's already happening in Our country yeah it sure is well it's Just like PayPal if you want to do Something I mean when we used to sell Magazines we sold AR magazines and we Had engraving on them and we had to list It a funky way so PayPal wouldn't shut It down because that's the best way to Be able to process those payments Um okay so uh but here's the thing guys Number one is you want to make sure that You're able to purchase your what Your Survival needs are so making sure that You have water making sure you have a Source for water you know whether it's a Rain catchment system whether it's a Pool whether it's the local Lake down And you want to have a way to filter it So you want to make sure that you know You have those water food you know your Heat Source those kind of things laid Out because that is your basic survival Listen you lose your wealth you lose Your wealth but if you lose your life It's done especially when you have
Family members bartering bartering can Be probably more acceptable in a Situation like that it would become Mainstream again yeah people are going To barter they're going to trade you Know so having items that people you Know or or go through your stuff and Look and see what you have early on cash Will be good but then after a while if They really transition to this it's a Fiat currency it's not worth anything Anyway it's just on the back of the of The the word of the federal government To be legal tender but honestly as far As value intrinsic value it has none And so tomorrow it can be shut off Um so let's go to a few more questions And see what we got and then um And then if not we'll but the big thing Is guys is you start thinking about it Put it in your mind again we're not There yet but we're heading there Quickly Uh holy cow asked was the balloon Chinese or NSA like the Pentagon was Talking about in 2019 used for Surveillance over the Midwest You know we really don't know they Haven't recovered any of it yet have They okay and it because it only fell in Like what 40 or 50 feet of water it Wasn't super deep so it should have been Pretty easy to recover they did okay Uh I saw some pictures actually when
They pulled them up and and it was shot Right off the coast it wasn't too far Out yep uh Lindsey Dill says question Will either of you will either of you Specifically use the Central Bank Digital currency barter sounds great Until Walmart demands it from now on Well I mean here's the thing how am I Gonna pay my power bill right there's Certain things that you have no choice But to you if it if they implement this There's certain things you have no Choice but to pay with with a central Currency and that would be your your car Payment your power bill your phone bill Uh your house payment things like that But for me anything outside of what I Have to pay with it I would find other Meaningful ways to be able to get things That I needed well especially things That you know that people are looking at You kind of sideways and I think you Know I mean if I I mean people that I'm associate with or We're all like-minded I mean we we think About the future we think about the Things that we need but if you if I went To little New York City and told people What I was doing they'd think I was Absolutely nuts and they would look at Me and go why do you need that why are You doing that what's wrong with you you Know and those are the kind of people That are going to be judging your
Character and your decisions Uh you know one thing about let's say Power well then get you know solar Panels do you know I mean there are Things that you can do here's the thing In the bottom line and really what the Sensible prepper channel is all about is You should be working toward being more Self-reliant yep more self-sufficient You can't totally we need each other but That really should be that is the answer Really as far as doing that is to be More and more self-reliant you know Being able to grow our own food I mean If according the Bible it says that a Loaf of bread will be worth a bag of Gold at one point uh you know if I'm Growing my own food then you know I'm Going to be able to to last longer and To live longer and to protect provide For my family Prepare to survive says the Missouri Bill SB 100 encourages the use of gold And silver as money including making it Legal tender eliminating the capital Gains taxed on gold and silver and Establishing a state bullion depository I love that terroristic I love that you Know there are some and here's the thing Guys if you're not careful I thought About this the other day if we don't if We're not careful we look at all the Negatives there are a lot of positive Things that are going on uh and the
Supreme Court really has been a very Positive influence we do have the house Now that's under Republican control We'll wait and see how that really turns Out you know translates because you know How that goes but they are making a lot Of headways so far so we've got to keep Our you've got to keep that finger on The pulse and you got to give those guys A lot of a push but it's according to Where you live too I think like Missouri I mean here in South Carolina we're Pretty Freedom minded a lot of other Areas uh black Bart mentions oh my Goodness do y'all know about the Goldbacks four states already mentioning Their own currency see that that kind of Stuff is a hedge against what we're Talking about and I love that I love it Peaceful Peace clear says You recommend for gold and silver uh yes Uh in fact I've known these guys for Many years but it's Scottsdale mint they Meant coins for over 20 countries and I've known Josh for over 10 years super Great good Christian guy that matters to You but uh they they are really Top-notch and um and there's a lot of Demand for it but Scottsdale meant is The place that especially when bullying Different things like that now I'll just Tell you if I'm gonna buy junk silver Which I do as well
I go to pawn shop gun shows gun shows Are great for that uh different places And you're one of my one of my little Secret spots that I go for for gold and Silver is uh flea markets oh yeah yeah Flea markets I I bought Several bags of silver uh let's just say Under face value at a flea market a few Months ago wow that's a that's a deal Yeah this and it was crazy this this Woman she pulls up and she's driving you Know like a Lexus you know very you know Very nice car and she's dressed she's Yep dressed very nicely and she gets out And she's walking around and I'm Standing over talking to these guys About some coins and stuff that they had And she walked up and she said uh Would any of y'all be interested in Buying some silver and she said I've got A bunch of old silver coins and stuff And I was like yeah I'd be interested in Them and she was like let me show you What I got she pulls out two gallon Ziploc bags that are slammed full of Silver wow silver coins and she was like You know I'll I'll take this for it and I almost broke both of my arms trying to Get my wallet out you know and if you Hadn't had cash you'd have been in Trouble if I wouldn't have had cash I Would have been in trouble and uh but She said she had some more at home so And I got her number and everything she
Got mine she's supposed to get in touch With me next time she's back up here so I can get some more from her well you Know there are deals like that there's a Place that I go to and it's a local coin Shop and uh they have a ton of junk Silver and so what I do is I go and I'll Just take if I have a little extra money And I'll go up there and I'll purchase a Couple of bags of and and then you know It just it protects my wealth it does It's not an investment necessarily it is An investment in your future here in the Long term because it you know it's Something that you have and and it Hedges against problems more than Anything and honestly right now silver And gold are at a low yep so this is a Great time to purchase well and you know I like old coins anyway right so anytime I can anytime I can pick up old coins And get the to research them and you Know find out more information about the Coins I enjoy that as well Chris Matthews asked hey Mr Don Robbie And Sarah Mack would you suggest a 3X or 1 to 6X ACS accs Seven six two by three nine for hunting Deer uh I like the one by six it gives You the ability to dial it down to 1x And shoot it like a Red Dot or if you Need more magnification you've got the Extra magnification to be able to wind It up to make a longer shot yeah if it's
A yeah for hunting applications Especially uh now for you know for a Self-defense situation I kind of like The Red Dot you can get hits out to 300 Yards on a man so I started really fast But uh yeah the one to six those listen Primary arms acss reticle is the bomb Hard to beat the bomb Um they they are some of the best Reticles out there for the money and the Scopes lifetime guarantee so I Definitely yeah I would go with the one To six Um AC Grant asks in case of an EMP Attack will our o lights be fried Probably But you know again we don't know it's According to the location it's according To how you know as far as how close it Is to you is according to the uh there's A lot of factors there's a lot of What-ifs yeah so you know our phones one Of the problems is the phone may not be Affected but the tower may be ripped out And so we're not ripped out but it may Be completely you know Out of out of service so you know that's One thing you may say oh I'm gonna hold On to my phone but you know if you don't Have Towers it's pretty much useless uh But it just makes a good computer if you Have some things to do but that's right Um yeah there's Faraday bags are great The only problem is is what have you got
In your Faraday bag I mean and I'll tell You I like to put battery chargers in There I like to put two-way radios and Things like that maybe an iPad because Even though an iPad may not be something You can't get online but you can still Function you can use it for things and So those are the kind of things that I'm Not using all the time because my luck Would be I pull out whatever I'm using And then there's an EMP well you know It's funny though you talk about that About not being able to access the Internet and access certain things like That one thing that we've really been Looking into lately has been starlink Uh just because it does give you the Ability to be able to access satellite Internet from anywhere anytime yeah as Long as because I know I was looking Into that too the big problem is a Really a problem could be that the Satellite would be affected as well it Could be depending on the altitude that The EMP was detonated at but satellites Do this right and so it may not be in That vicinity Uh Conan Coney Billings asked what do You consider junk silver like teapots And silverware uh no uh that which is That has value uh but you know that that Goes more toward Um where people maybe uh well a lot used To do that we were in the jewelry
Business my family was for years and we Would take in silver and uh and stuff And we would send it to a refiner uh You're really more toward a not a Numismatic value but more of a value of The item let's say you have a really Nice silver teapot you can probably sell It for more than you could if you melted It down if you melted it down but when I Talk about junk silver I'm talking about U.S minted coins uh that are pre-64 or 64 and below in 65 the the the ratios Changed and so it's still partially Silver I think it's 40 60. but uh it's 90 silver with your with your silver Coins from 1964 and below and so a lot Of times at pawn shops they'll sell that And uh there's you know there's a value To them and um so that's where I like to Get I like to get those kind of coins Because here's the thing and especially I don't want necessarily a big bullion Necessarily because if I need to do some Bartering I could take a quarter and use It instead of using a big bar and what He has may not be anywhere near the same Value and so I like to have those coins As well that are that are in lower Denominations even dimes Because you know like you know silver Right now I think is at 22 dollars an Ounce and so and and you can look at the Different figures of what coins are Worth and there's a lot of information
Out there about it but um I you know and I just think it's just a smart move to Protect you up it gives you a plan B if You need one and guys in fact I have a Friend of mine who uh was down in Costa Rica when they had a wood Costa Rica but It was one of the uh one of the South American Central American countries and They had a socialist kind of evolution And and he and his family had wealth They had lands and uh one night in the Middle of the night they had a big group Come to their house and they had a wall They had walls around their house and They stormed their house and the only Way they got out was they had a tunnel To escape and they used money they used Current or silver and gold to get out of The country they did that in Vietnam Right after the Vietnam War a lot of Vietnamese used their jewelry and Different things to get them out of that Situation so they don't the Germans did During World War Two I mean it's been Done over and over and over listen when People go oh you can't eat silver well You can't eat brass and Lead either and The thing is just like we saw with covid We had an shtf kind of situation it was Like right but it was there and and There were very few people that were Running out with guns in the middle of Cove because of whatever reason until They said antifa but you know the thing
Is is silver and gold gives you some Some options it gives you some options And I'm a big proponent of having Precious metals Uh be real ask is there any brand or Type Fair Day bag you recommend well you Know I've got a couple and I've had them Uh I don't know of anybody currently and I don't even know the name of the ones I've got uh there are some pretty cool Systems though and you get some Different sizes you can even get some That'll fit over your generator like you Have a gas powered generator uh they're They're kind of expensive I mean they're Like 300 but uh you can get some Different sizes and there's a number of Different ones out there again they have Not tested a an honest to God we have Not gone through an honest got EMP to Where we could do the testing and you Know that's the thing for me that I'm Always leery about with a lot of the the Faraday bags and covers and stuff is They've they've never been real world Tested in an EMP or during an EMP to see How well they function or if they Function at all it's a lot of it is is Theoretical Um it can work it may work it should Work but you can't say 100 for sure that It will will work the thing is those Little small holes is the way that the The uh the gamma I don't know if it's
The gamma rays or just the uh the raised The ultraviolet rays that come through There's the way they're designed is They're coming through at a certain way And they're bigger or they're slow and When they they just can't pass through That mesh uh it's it's very scientific Uh the way they set it up and it's taken From data that's been out there from the Faraday you know the original Faraday Designs but um again like Robbie said You know um we don't know and again it Also has to do with how close you are to The to the last Okay so let's see we've got about five Minutes we're gonna um guys here's the Thing you know first off is when digital Currency Uh bills come up in Congress or there Starts to be a push You know guys there's a danger with that And we can't lose our freedoms and we Can lose our Liberty and we can lose our Privacy which we're already losing but The problem is the one the big Difference with digital is that once That goes into place it's going to Encompass everything right now we're Petitioned we're partitioned we there Are certain things you know what YouTube May not like us but that doesn't mean That Facebook's going to give us a hard Time uh which they probably will but you Know you have some other options
Typically that you can move from because They're not all interconnected and the Problem with the digital currency Especially the Central Bank digital Currency uh is that it interconnects all Financial it creates a financial Surveillance system that's never been Seen before and it will totally invade Your privacy Uh everything you do so we need to Really step up and stand against it we Need safeguards we need to have other Options in the current situation we're In now we do have safeguards and one of The big ones is cash it's one of the big Ones but when they start getting into This thing of limiting cash and limiting This limiting that that's that's a Danger sign that we need to be watching For and I couldn't agree more you know I Think it's one of those things that we We really need to watch and we really Need to monitor closely when when we see Things like this start to get brought up In Congress as a potential Bill we need To be on the phone with our with our Congressmen and our Senators immediately Um for telling them hey you've got to You've got to uh you've got to vote Against this you can't vote for this This is bad for our country it's bad for Our economy it's bad for our citizens It's bad for everyone yeah and total Control because the problem is is when
You give I mean that's the whole thing With the with um with our nation and the Birth of our nation was to give control Back to the people now we we've lost a Lot of things and really our elected Officials are limited Way Beyond what They should be the people that we elect And put into office with the bureaucracy And you can call it the swamp or Whatever else there isn't there is a Massive organization going on behind the Scenes but we've got to fight Um with our vote and with our boys and Make sure that we're getting information Out that's why we did this today But guys again you know Currency you know your your money in Your bank you know It limits you so have some different Alternatives again precious metals are Great at this point right now having Cash having cash on the side is great I Mean it's you're able to do things that And not nefarious not things that are Bad that's more privacy of things you Don't want everybody to know about you You have that right to privacy it's a It's a basic god-given right just like The Second Amendment uh your personal Affairs your effects those are those are Yours and and we're we we have that Right to have that privacy Um you know of course hard assets that's One thing to to do that you can do some
Trading with bartering and um and one Thing I didn't mention is Bitcoin uh at This point right now you know bitcoin's Kind of a rebel I don't understand all The intricacies of Bitcoin we have done Some stuff but you know it is very Complicated but that's definitely an Alternative to this now with the Central Bank come and take that possibly yes but It does at this point in fact I was Listening to one guy that was that was Talking about it and he said that is one Of the the safeguards at this point Against that so uh and if you want to Try to get into all the understanding of That so um anyway guys I I hope this at Least gave you some pause to think and Maybe do some things to make some plans And some options uh you know the more This gets closer and uh it's a scary Thing to me and I think there's a lot of Dangers to the loss of our freedoms so Um and also we do appreciate Sportsman's Guide 20 20 off every hundred dollar or More purchase using search And then EXO attack we really appreciate Those guys as well some of the best fire Starters out on the market and you get 20 off using suits 20 with the link Down Below in the description and we Definitely appreciate Robbie Wheaton for Being here it's always always a pleasure And we were kind of somber today you Know but this was not a fun subject
