Words matter. The old adage “sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me” is one of the farthest things from the truth. In fact, we live in a world where words are used outside of their original context unbeknownst to us, and the way those words are being used combined [...]
Everything You’ve Never Been Told About Money
If you haven’t read last week’s post, please do so before reading this one. Without that foundational information in viewing our country as a business, this post may be much more difficult to understand. What I’m about to share with you is information that’s very challenging to find. Not many people present this information, and [...]
The Root of All Things Good
I’m sure you’ve heard the saying ‘money is the root of all evil’. I want to challenge and rewrite this narrative to be ‘money is the root of all things good!’ Money does not make you good or evil, even though society teaches otherwise. Money amplifies that which you already are. If you are a [...]
Lady Justice
The Scales of Justice have long represented the symbolism of justice. They represent the balancing of truth and fairness in each legal case.

If you're not sitting down, please sit down before you read this. If you don't already know this, it might be a lot to drink in, pun intended. Our food and water supplies are used against us. Some are as bold to say they are poisonous, and by the end of this blog you will [...]

You may recall, Travis started out in an open dorm type housing unit that had an open room holding up to 60 occupants. Prior to a planned shakedown that housing unit [...]
Teacher, Teach Me
In continuing to examine how our systems are interconnected it is important to look at the education, college, and workforce systems. These three systems alone go hand in hand, but they also are interwoven with the healthcare system and the energy system. Mr. Rockefeller was heavily involved in the educational system by founding the General [...]
Healthcare vs Sickcare
You probably know how the current medical system works, but I will explain it very briefly just in case anyone has miraculously never had to visit the doctor, ER, or pharmacy before. If by some small miracle that’s you, I want to hear from you! Our current medical system is an insurance-based system which chooses [...]
