As Tucker Carlson talks about feeling “radicalized against western leadership,” I find myself rolling my eyes and saying, “welcome to the party pal.” But seriously, it’s good to see him awakening more people.

 

When I began talking about the western created propaganda in 2023 people had a difficult time understanding it. {GO DEEP https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2023/08/09/western-sanctions-not-impacting-russian-economy-as-much-as-expected/ }

As I began researching and explaining the futility and fraud of the Western sanctions against Russia, the confusion expanded. {GO DEEP}

Nothing makes sense until you realize we are being lied to by every element of Western review, government, media, corporations, academia, financial punditry, the works… all of their claims are based on lies and false information.

Tucker Carlson: Moscow Supermarket In 2024… Sanctions & All

Keep in mind that Carlson is only looking at the ‘goods’ side of the ledger. On the ‘service’ side, the disparity in pricing is beyond jaw-dropping. {Example: A 30-mile cab ride for $5}.

 

From a production side perspective, Russia actually has a larger economy now than Germany, the largest EU nation. The cause for this is “autarchy” or self-sufficiency. Indeed, as the timeline of the sanctions completes the second full year, the Russian production economy is even stronger than when the sanctions began. Quite simply, they are making even more of their own goods now.

 

The sanctions typically fall into the service side of the economy, as well as financial and economic roadblocks. However, that aspect of the Russian economy was much smaller than most suspected and there were sanctions going back to 2014 which made the outcome of the 2022 western imposed restrictions far less impactful.

I’m very serious when I share with people that almost everything we understand about the geopolitical purposes and impacts of sanctions against Russian economic interests is entirely fabricated. However, because the scale of the propaganda against us is so effective, breaking the mental/cognitive barrier is almost impossible.

 

It’s not that situations are ‘shaped’ or information is ‘manipulated,’ as in the definition of the term “disinformation.” But rather the entire construct of reality regarding the economic issues -as presented- is fabricated, created by massive financial interests, and flat-out lies; I mean, total unadulterated nonsense. Complete fiction.

 

This article from Reuters, and the accompanying graphic from ZeroHedge, only scratches the surface.

 

[SOURCE]

 

We are through the looking glass folks. Literally captive to the narrative as sold by our Western government officials, and there’s a huge one-way mirror; beyond which, massive segments of the grey zone are looking at us as if we are pathetic victims of professional propaganda.

 

The worst part of this dynamic is how the USA looks insufferably weak, because we are playing this massive game of pretending that only the Yellow Zone is participating in.

 

MOSCOW, Dec 27 (Reuters) – Almost all of Russia’s oil exports this year have been shipped to China and India, Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said on Wednesday, after Moscow responded to Western economic sanctions by quickly rerouting supplies away from Europe.

 

Russia has successfully circumvented sanctions on its oil and diverted flows from Europe to China and India, which together accounted for around 90% of its crude exports, Novak, who is in charge of the country’s energy sector, told Rossiya-24 state TV.

 

He said that Russia had already started to forge ties with Asia-Pacific countries before the West introduced sanctions against Moscow following the start of the conflict in Ukraine in February 2022.

 

“As for those restrictions and embargoes on supplies to Europe and the U.S. that were introduced… this only accelerated the process of reorienting our energy flows,” Novak said.

 

He said that Europe’s share of Russia’s crude exports has fallen to only about 4-5% from about 40-45%. (read more)

What Alexander Novak shares is stunningly accurate, only the ramifications are far more serious. This is why I am spending so much time trying to break the issue down into digestible portions.

 

Russia and Iran are now trading oil (and other things) in their own national currencies, not the petrodollar. This is the epicenter of a process initially triggered by the BRICS economic alliance and is now taking place in real time while the proverbial WEST pretends it is not happening. Now, it might sound esoteric, as if it is a disconnected or academic issue that doesn’t have real substantive ramifications, but that’s not true.

 

I can literally see how global trade is now cost-shifting as the dollar starts to weaken (become less used) as a trade currency. Again, like our domestic social issues, this de-dollarization process is “slowly at first,” but eventually this is going to come all at once.

 

As USA consumers we cannot see it yet, because we are inside an economic system that is entirely dependent on dollars. However, as the devaluation of the dollar continues slowly to happen, outside our dollar-based economy, the cost of goods, products and stuff in the ordinary life of people within the GREY ZONE is now stunningly less. It’s not showing up in currency markets (dollar -vs- fill_in_blank), because the currency trades are not part of the trade/cost dynamic outside the YELLOW ZONE.

 

Go into the grey zone and compare the price of “product X” to what you would pay in the United States for “product X”, and you will see the difference in the end consumer price is starting to widen faster. Identical goods in the USA cost much more than goods outside the “west.”

 

As the de-dollarization continues (mostly driven by the lessening of oil sold using the petrodollar), the disparity in price will get even more stark. As a result of this dynamic, wages in the USA (or the “west”) must necessarily rise faster; however, that’s only part of the issue.

 

If I took $200 into a Russian supermarket, buying only consumable food products, I would end up with about 3 shopping carts full of food. Take that same $200 into the average USA supermarket and you get one shopping cart or less. This is the scale of what is likely to happen in durable goods. The “cleaving” is underway.

 

Let me say that again, the “cleaving” of dollar-based price/value is underway.

 

Starbucks pulled out of Russia. The building still exists, the furniture still there, the equipment still there, just a different name, “Star Coffee” lolol. Starbucks is roughly $6 for whatever, the StarCoffee is $1. Same stuff. A cab/uber ride in USA might be $25, or in EU might be €30, but outside the yellow zone around $6 to $10/max. It’s getting crazy how big the difference is.

 

Now, the price disparity is not in everything, only in the products that do not originate from inside the yellow zone. The increased price of the yellow zone goods transfers into the grey zone when the product is moved. However, if the yellow zone and grey zone both produce an identical product (or service), that’s when you see the massive difference in price. [And no, this is not a lower cost labor issue]

 

Conversely, prices of goods originating from the grey zone shipped to the yellow zone will be far less than the comparable product created from within the yellow zone.

 

What is going to happen?

 

I suspect we are going to import even more products from the grey zone at a greater rate, because there’s a lower origination price and greater opportunity for profit. Wait and see.

 

China needs energy, Russia needs computer chips and tech. They are trading thusly. Now watch… if the sanctions are ever lifted, we will start importing Russian made electronic goods, because less expensive. It’s nuts.

 

Remember, our ‘western’ government is doing this to us on purpose.

 

3/3

Roy Eugene Barnes (born March 11, 1948)[1] is an American attorney and politician who served as the 80th governor of Georgia from 1999 to 2003.[1] As of 2023, he is the most recent Democrat to serve as governor of Georgia.

 

A Democratic member of the Georgia Senate from 1974 to 1990, Barnes ran unsuccessfully for governor in 1990, losing to Lieutenant Governor Zell Miller in the Democratic primary. Barnes then served in the Georgia House of Representatives from 1992 to 1998. He ran for governor again in 1998, handily winning the primary and general elections.

 

In 2003, Barnes was awarded the Profile in Courage Award by the John F. Kennedy Library for his success while governor of minimizing the Confederate battle emblem on the Georgia state flag despite the political fallout.[2] It is widely believed that his support of the flag change significantly contributed to his re-election defeat in 2002.[2][3]

 

After his defeat, he resumed the practice of law and co-chaired the Aspen Institute Commission on No Child Left Behind Act. He returned to politics when he ran for governor again in 2010, losing to Republican Nathan Deal.[4]

 

Early life, education, and family

Roy Barnes was born on March 11, 1948,[1][5] in Mableton, Georgia. His family owned a general store, which gave him his first exposure to politics as he listened to the conversations of the store patrons.[1][5][6]

 

Upon his graduation from South Cobb High School, Barnes enrolled at the University of Georgia.[1][2][5] He was active on the debate team;[5] and spent his summers returning home to work in the family store.[1] He graduated with a degree in history in 1969;[1] and one year later married Marie Dobbs of Marietta, Georgia, with whom he has had three children.[1][5][6]

 

After college, Barnes enrolled in the University of Georgia School of Law.[1][2][5] While there, he was elected president of the student bar association, and was named outstanding senior.[1][5] He graduated from law school in 1972 with honors,[1] and returned to Cobb County to work as a prosecutor in the Cobb County District Attorney's Office[1][5][6] after serving four months in the Army.[1]

Profile in Courage Award

For his leadership in minimizing the Confederate battle emblem on the Georgia state flag despite the political fallout,[5] Barnes was awarded the 2003 Profile in Courage Award by the John F. Kennedy Library.[3][13]

 

Barnes Law Group

Upon completing his service at Atlanta Legal Aid Society, Barnes founded the Barnes Law Group with his daughter, Allison Barnes Salter; son-in-law, John Salter; and long-time law partner, Charles Tanksley.[19] The Barnes Law Group continues Barnes' private law practice[19] which began in 1975 when he formed his first law firm.[7]

 

Georgia Supreme Court rulings as attorney

The Georgia Supreme Court, on June 11, 2007, unanimously dismissed a legal challenge to the state's voter ID law.[20] Barnes argued before the court that the voter identification law was unconstitutional because Plaintiff Rosalind Lake - a first-time voter after having moved to Georgia - did not have a driver's license, and was therefore excluded in a discriminatory manner.[20]

 

The state's highest court, however, stated that Lake, the only plaintiff in the case, had photograph identification through MARTA,[20] the area's mass transit system, as a result of needed disability access to it, that would have qualified her to vote in July 2006, so she did not have legal standing to file suit.[20] Justice Harold Melton wrote that since Lake had photograph identification that was acceptable for voting, in-person, under the 2006 Act, she did not have standing to challenge the state's voter identification law as an unconstitutional restriction on her voting rights.[20]

 

Previously, Georgians could show one of 17 forms of identification, including those without photos, such as utility bills, to check in at the polls.[20] Supporters said it would increase voter confidence through a better verification process. Legislators revised the law and made it easier for people to get free photo cards for voting, but the rules were repeatedly barred from implementation until early 2008.[21]
