I'm watching something the media won't tell you about.

Americans are quietly dismantling the consumer economy. Homeschooling hit 3.7 million kids in 2024—triple the pre-pandemic growth rate. Vaccine exemptions for kindergartners reached an all-time high of 3.4%. People stopped buying garbage they don't need at Christmas and started saving for what actually matters.

This isn't frugality. This is economic warfare.

The System Depends on Your Compliance

The establishment built an economy that requires you to spend, consume, and stay dependent. When you stop participating, their entire structure starts to crack.

Look at what happened to the Canadian truckers. They protested. The government froze their bank accounts. That moment taught millions of people a lesson the elites wish we'd never learned: **your money in their system is a weapon they can use against you.**

Smart Americans got the message. I tell my listeners to buy tangible goods—storable food and silver. When the market crashes or supply chains break down, you hold something real. The broken system can't monitor or control assets you physically possess.

COVID Pulled the Rug Out

The 2020 lockdowns forced people to see what was always true. The system doesn't serve you. It serves itself.

People lost their livelihoods overnight. Small businesses got destroyed while big corporations got bailouts. The medical establishment pushed vaccines that 73.9% of autopsies now show caused death. Healthcare workers who witnessed the injuries firsthand started refusing the shots—only 17% are current on COVID boosters.

That wake-up call is still spreading. It takes a couple years for people to fully digest what happened. Now in 2025, Americans are taking a much more assertive role in their daily lives.

**Homeschooling exploded.** Some states saw 21.5% growth in one year. Parents looked at the indoctrination centers and said no.

**Vaccine participation plummeted.** Non-medical exemptions hit record highs. Trust in the system collapsed from 94% in 2001 to 69% in 2024.

**Harmful chemicals are being removed from water** because people demanded it.

These are acts of noncompliance forcing the system to respond.

Every Dollar You Don't Spend Is Resistance

The economy is worse than they're telling you. People don't have money to waste anymore. But something deeper is happening too.

Americans are choosing community over consumerism. They're rejecting the lie that happiness comes from buying more plastic garbage. They're realizing the system designed the debt trap to keep us enslaved.

Faith-based movements are teaching people that abundance doesn't mean accumulation. It means freedom. Personal freedom. The freedom to raise your family in the country, grow your own food, filter your own water, and refuse to participate in the recycled plastic society they're trying to force on us.

This is a parallel economy. A modern way to express freedom and protect yourself from supply chain breakdowns they'll use as means of control.

The Smart Ones Understand

Most people are scared to step away from the system they've depended on their whole lives. History shows those people get left without a chair when the music stops.

The smart ones are already moving. They're pulling wealth out of compromised banks and putting it into silver, storable food, and tangible assets. They're building capital outside Wall Street's reach. They're creating local economies and community networks the establishment can't weaponize.

Americans saved 4.4% of disposable income in 2025. Mainstream economists panic about "low savings." They miss the real story. People are deploying capital differently—into preparation, into community, into systems they control.

Pandemic excess savings were depleted by March 2024 according to the San Francisco Fed. Credit card delinquencies hit the highest level since 2012. Yet the economy hasn't collapsed.

A parallel economic system is absorbing the shock.

They Can't Stop What They Can't See

The parallel economy operates alongside their official system. It bypasses formal registration, licensing, and taxation requirements. Digital tools let Americans create alternative ecosystems based on shared values and increased privacy.

When PayPal deplatformed Gab, they launched GabPay. When banks became weapons, people moved to precious metals. When schools became indoctrination centers, parents brought education home.

This is peaceful noncompliance. Every family that homeschools, every person who refuses the vaccine, every dollar moved into silver instead of their stock market—these are votes for a different system.

The establishment is terrified of Americans who refuse to play their game. They should be.

We're not just saving money. We're building something they can't control.
