Yet before you’ve even decided what to do with your earnings, countless hands have already reached into your pocket.

The machine doesn’t create wealth—it consumes it. It survives on the labor of millions of productive people who wake up every day to produce goods, provide services, and solve problems. As governments expand, so too does their appetite for taxes, borrowing, and inflation, creating the sense that productive citizens are expected to sustain an ever-growing system rather than the system serving them.

The productive citizen is the host. The government is the organism that survives by attaching itself to labor, constantly demanding more energy to sustain an ever-expanding bureaucracy. The harder the host works, the stronger the Beast becomes.

And when the host begins to struggle, the answer is rarely restraint. It is more borrowing, more money creation, more taxation, and more promises that someone else will eventually pay the bill. Tomorrow’s workers become collateral for today’s spending.

A free society should be built on voluntary exchange, productive work, and the ability to keep the fruits of one’s labor. When that balance is lost, people begin to wonder who truly serves whom. Does the government exist to protect the people—or have the people become livestock, endlessly feeding a machine that can never admit it has had enough?

That is the question worth asking, because every dollar taken is an hour of someone’s life that can never be earned back.

MotherSilverApe Opinion: If something happens tomorrow I’ll be happy.

If nothing happy tomorrow and no announcment gets made, it changes absolutely nothing.

Monetary Revaluations might or might not happen tomorrow, onJuly 4th. I think that if something were to be announced tomorrow, that would be super cool!

But if an official announcement doesn’t happen tomorrow, it certainly doesn’t mean that it will never happen. All that it means if revalution announcements don’t get made tomorrow is that the revaluation of fiat money will happen sometime later in the future.

But I hope officials doesn’t wait too much longer into the future. Because fiat money doesn’t ever last forever. No fiat monetary system has ever lasted forever. And from here on in, the harder life will get with nothing of value, nothung but debt backing the USD.

A sharp decline in Open Interest often suggests leveraged speculative positions have been flushed out, leaving a less crowded futures market with fewer weak hands.

By itself, this doesn't guarantee higher prices—but historically, periods of depressed Open Interest have provided a healthier backdrop for the next major move when buying pressure returns.

Could it also mean investors are sick of the COMEX games, glitches & crashes?

Crustacean Nation: Silver Open Interest is near 2016 lows while the metal is trading far above 2016 prices... Is this setting the stage for silver to finally outperform gold again?

Quoting

COMEX silver open interest is in free fall.

Open interest is now below the levels seen when silver bottomed in 2016 after a brutal 5-year decline.

Positioning has been washed out.

When gold resumes its uptrend, I expect silver to outperform once again.

For the first time in decades, a state is laying the legal foundation for gold and silver to function as real money again, not just collectibles sitting in a safe.

HB 999:
Recognizes qualifying gold & silver as legal tender between willing parties.
Creates a framework for state-regulated precious metals depositories.
Opens the door to gold & silver-backed electronic payments.

Read between the lines...

Today it's secure storage and payments.

Tomorrow?

Imagine walking into your local credit union, depositing your gold or silver into a regulated depository, having it tokenized on blockchain, and using that tokenized asset as collateral in regulated DeFi lending.

No selling your metals.
No giving up ownership.
Your assets start working for you.

Florida didn't just pass a sound money bill.

It may have laid the foundation for bringing real-world assets on-chain, and putting financial power back into the hands of the states.

Know What You Hold!!!

Scott Bessent told us on June 23rd, 2026, “We should support innovation that strengthens the dollar, improves efficiency, expands access, and preserves the integrity of the financial system.” He is hinting at strengthening the dollar by re-introducing gold into the monetary system.

Trump tweeted on June 29th, 2026, that we should expect a golden gift on July 4th. This is an AI picture. People are taking it literally. Its a message regarding a gold revaluation and bonds.

The picture on the right are the out of the money #gold call options at the #Comex for December expiration.

Do you understand yet anon? Gold is about to moon. #silver

Look at the two facts side by side. Silver is down about 47 percent from its January record of 121.62, sitting in the high 50s, its lowest in seven months. Over the same stretch, the industrial precious metal entered its sixth straight year of supply deficit, with the Silver Institute putting the 2026 shortfall at 46.3 million ounces, up 15 percent from the year before. The chart round-tripped. The scarcity widened.

That is the part almost no soul is saying. The deficit did not merely survive the crash. It grew during it. Solar makers cut the silver in each panel by nearly a fifth to escape the high prices, and the shortage still widened, because mine supply is falling faster than demand. Price and scarcity did not just diverge. They moved in opposite directions.

So the Silver chart and the balance sheet now disagree at a single line. The chart says a bubble popped. The fundamentals say a shortage is still open, and getting worse. And the two are closer than they look, because at a full retrace to the trendline they draw the identical candle. A bubble that deflated and a bull market resting on support look exactly the same here.

Anyone who tells you with certainty which one this is, up or down, is guessing in a confident voice. Hmm

A metal that solar panels, electric cars, and data centers cannot simply run without is back at the price it began this whole run at, with the deficit that started everything wider than before. The market took back the speculation. It could not take back the scarcity.

Having ready to eat meals in the freezer or pressure canned is like having fast food ready in less than a half hour, but it’s more economical, faster and healthier than driving through a drive through grabbing another burger or burrito. Making multiple meals at one time saves a lot on your time and cost.

Making nourishing comforting meals like beef stroganoff then feels more affordable. I made several batches of beef stroganoff yesterday. All that I had to buy from the store was fresh mushrooms and sour cream. but I could have used canned mushrooms and made my own sour cream if grocery stores weren’t open, or if mushrooms and sour cream weren’t affordable or available. Or in a real pinch, cans of cream of mushroom soup and cream could be substituted.

Egg noodles and everything else, all came from our home stores. Egg noodles are the easiest noodles to make at home too if you’re running out and can’t make more! Things like beef bone broth, wine, spices, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, onions and beef we already had on hand.

Also, I had some carrots and celery on hand, and I didn’t want to leave a bag of these sitting in the kitchen fridge, so they got added in when I was making the beef stroganoff as well. I just put small cubed carrot and celery pieces in when I added the sautéed onion and our meal turned out just fine! (I did get questioned as to why carrots were included, but family didn’t even notice the celery bits.) 😂 Family won’t mind a few carrots added… trust me! This way no nourishing foods go to waste!

We all had a lovely dinner of beef stroganoff yesterday. I’ve put one large container in the fridge for serving later, along with a large container of pre-cooked egg noodles. Beef stroganoff is one of those dishes where our family begs for leftovers. More stroganoff is now packed air tight in the freezer for later, for on a day when I have no time to cook. Then satisfying meal can be quickly made.

This is how we use up our stored food. Usually rotating, using our oldest food supplies first. It’s always handy to have foods in our home ready to prepare and make hearty nourishing meals from.

(The picture included isn’t my prepared beef stroganoff meal, but when plated, it looked pretty similar. Ours just had a few other veggies like carrot and celery added.)

If you stay through it, yeah then you are inexperienced or rich enough to let time handle it.

If you avoided half of the damage or more, you can consider yourself a winner over time.

After rain comes sunshine.

#Silver weekly RSI since 1995:

-We only been more oversold 11 times
-Only 4 times the past 31 years have we reached more oversold levels if the RSI started from "overbought" levels (above the red line, like we are this time)

after RED #4 silver ran +498% (2008-2011)
after RED #5 silver bounced +35% (2012)
after RED #9 silver ran +155% (2020)
after RED #10 silver bounced +27% (2021)

Every major RSI drop from “extreme overbought” territory (above the red line) has, at worst, resulted in the following RSI declines:

-55%
-50%
-65%
-66%
-60%

Average drop: −59.2%
Current drop we are experiencing: -57%

I cant say more then "hang in there."

People rarely worry about resilience while everything appears to be going up.

Until one day, it isn't.

That's when priorities tend to change overnight.

A society rarely collapses because it runs out of wealth.

It collapses when wealth replaces values.

When profit becomes more important than family...
When portfolios matter more than people...
When comfort outweighs courage...

You've already lost something far more valuable than money.

The real crisis isn't financial.

It's moral.
