=== Inflation's Unequal Impact (01:25) ===

[00:00:00]  The gap between rich and poor is getting wider and wider and wider.
[00:00:03]  And every time you print money, fake money, you know, fiat money, I get richer, rich get richer, poor middle class get poorer because inflation sends my price.
[00:00:15]  I have oil wells because you can't print oil.
[00:00:18]  So I have oil wells.
[00:00:19]  The price of oil goes up.
[00:00:21]  The price of chickens go up.
[00:00:22]  Food goes up.
[00:00:23]  Real estate goes up.
[00:00:25]  But when mom and pop, you know, Mr. and Mrs. middle class go to the supermarket, they go, what?
[00:00:31]  I can't afford to eat anymore.
[00:00:34]  So I think what Marx wanted was this gap between rich and poor.
[00:00:41]  In fact, that was his plan.
[00:00:43]  If you studied Marx, he says he wanted equality.
[00:00:47]  He says, the way you destroy anybody is you pull the poor up, but you pull the rich down.
[00:00:59]  And that's what Marx was trying to do.
[00:01:02]  And so I see all that going on right now.
[00:01:05]  And today, I've never seen such homelessness spreading all across the world, but also America.
[00:01:13]  I've seen homelessness in Africa and things like this.
[00:01:17]  But we're in Phoenix, Arizona right now.
[00:01:19]  We have whole zones full of homeless people because they can't afford real estate.
