Money & Markets

Navigating Planet Tollbooth

In this episode of Money and Markets, the hosts frame current events as “Planet Tollbooth,” arguing the U.S. and other powers are increasing friction through tariffs, sanctions, wars, and red tape that burden Main Street while benefiting major corporations. They highlight Iceland’s referendum rejecting even EU accession talks as a sovereignty-driven pushback centered on fisheries and distrust of EU promises. They discuss “Operation Economic Outcast,” describing expanded U.S. sanctions on Iran focused on enforcing compliance by third countries via secondary sanctions and dollar jurisdiction, alongside carve-outs, waivers, and winner-loser selection. The conversation covers claims of U.S. defeat in the Iran war, rising diesel and farm input costs, threats to food and energy systems, a damaging U.S.-Canada trade war that advantages China, falling new-home prices with rising inventory, military leadership ousters, a depleted Strategic Petroleum Reserve, Pentagon-paid social media influencers, EU efforts to move household deposits into equities for a war economy, escalating Ukraine conflict scenarios, AI and Meta as surveillance/control-grid mechanisms, surging RAM prices tied to hyperscalers, Pennsylvania health-code powers resembling COVID-era controls, and a municipal “growth makes you poorer” warning from Post Falls, Idaho.

    1. Many thanks for the link and for a new old perspective on things I had never questioned before. Lots of interesting info and many new rabbit holes to go down.

  1. The local hyper scaler data centre developer had its application tossed by the Utilities Regulator today, anyone in Canada with one of these developments trying to move into their backyard would want to have a look at the decision at auc.ab.ca which requires a sign in. Application # 30732. The development application was precedent setting so this ruling should be a very useful reference to others with their own Provincial regulator. Thanks to evidence from the US about what these developments actually involve over the long term, and lots of local pushback.

    1. There is legislation allegedly being passed to ban protests of these things. Sure it’s technically Unconstitutional, but we seem to be Post Constitutional at this point.

  2. Parts of heaven can fall asleep for the fun of forgetting… but when the light wakes up…

    The game is over… the world is waking up

    No amount of technology or control is gonna do a G*ddamn thing about that.

    If we have a control grid problem… they (the powers that be) have a much, much bigger problem…

    AND that’s what it comes down to… “the spiritual war” (and there losing mightily everyday)…

    It aint the 1800’s anymore robber barons (sorry)

      1. I appreciate that… everyone gets a vote when you live in a universe that is alive…

        Endowed with the creative power of your creator…

        A million quantum physics experiments… where “want you think” effects actual reality…documented

        There (the powers that be) worst nightmare is everyone waking everyone up… and yet, that is all they can seem to do lately.

        That is how you know the game is over… except the suffering they cause on their way out.

  3. Dr Lee Merritt has been looking at older civilizations, such as Khazaria and Phrygia. She was interviewed on a program, “All Roads Lead to Phrygia”, linked below. It is a very interesting program and an important topic, in my opinion. Why are Phrygian symbols on our seals and buildings, and are their decedents running the world? The program is well worth the watch.

    1. I cannot easily explain how this – connected the dots/was the key piece of the jigsaw – for me.
      It was like seeing the content of a database turned into a graph.
      That video maps on to what we know of secret societies and secret religions. These have to have a way of communicating, handshaking etc, links and nodes, and the video explains so much.
      Dr Merritt doesn’t need 100% accuracy, some of the Herodotus stuff is a little off, but the picture tells the story.
