The World Economic Forum is often dismissed as a conspiracy theory, but the Federal Liberal Party seems to be copying its policies. Scott Morrison's trusted digital identity bill is a direct copy of the World Economic Forum's global digital identity project. This bill aims to shift the global economy towards an access model, where you rent goods and services instead of owning them. It essentially means a life via subscription. While they claim it will help sustainability, it actually leads to a closed loop economy where the rich get richer and you have less. It's like a form of slavery.

Speaker 0: You trust Costco with your family's dinner, but their meat undergoes a controversial process that's banned in several countries. Speaker 1: Everyone loves Costco chicken or even that rotisserie chicken from Walmart or your favorite grocery store. But what if that label on that rotisserie bird isn't telling you the whole story? What you're about to learn could change the way that you buy protein forever. Costco chicken is beloved and seen as a great deal. I know this. But recent discussions about preservatives, labeling accuracy, and contamination has put that belief at risk. Guys, look. Speaker 2: Costco is facing a lawsuit over its popular rotisserie chickens. A group of shareholders filed the lawsuit against the company over its treatment in raising chickens. Speaker 0: You trust Costco with your family's dinner, but their meat undergoes a controversial process that's banned in several countries. Most shoppers have no idea this is happening right under their noses. The real question isn't what they're doing. It's why they're allowed to do it. You know that famous $5 rotisserie chicken at Costco? The one that's been the same price since Obama was president? Well, there's a juicy secret they don't want you knowing about. Speaker 1: They label it as no preservatives, guys. And this goes hand in hand with Walmart and your probably your favorite grocery store. This is what I would call a huge scandal. There's a reason why those chickens have been four ninety nine since 2009. It's to get you in the store. It's to get you to spend a ton of money, and they've cut a lot of corners to make sure that it's cheap and easy to produce for you. Welcome, guys. My name's Cohen from Riverside Homestead. What I do is I give you guys value. I do the digging so you don't have to do it. So if you appreciate that, hit the thumbs up right now. Let the community know where you're chiming in from, what state, and let me crush your dreams on rotisserie chicken like ugh. Trust me. I know. So watch. This chicken is labeled as no preservatives, guys. And this goes hand in hand with Walmart and your probably your favorite grocery store. This is what I would call a huge scandal. There's a reason why those chickens have been four ninety nine since 2009. It's to get you in the store. It's to get you to spend a ton of money, and they've cut a lot of corners to make sure that it's cheap and easy to produce for you. Welcome, guys. My name's Cohen from Riverside Homestead. What I do is I give you guys value. I do the digging so you don't have to do it. So if you appreciate that, hit the thumbs up right now. Let the community know where you're chiming in from, what state, and let me crush your dreams on rotisserie chicken like ugh. Trust me. I know. So watch. This chicken is labeled as no preservatives, organic, healthy as it gets. We've talked about this before on this channel. Loopholes. Speaker 0: Costco injects every single rotisserie chicken with a phosphate solution before it hits those warming lights. Think you're buying pure chicken? Think again. You're paying for water with a side of poultry. This liquid injection makes each bird weigh significantly more, So you're essentially buying a sponge that's been soaked in chemical juice. Speaker 1: Did you guys know that these chickens are only about six weeks old because of everything that they pump into them? It's a marketing ploy to get you through the door for the cheap chicken and buy everything else. And there's active lawsuits right now. This is especially bred chicken in horrible conditions. Speaker 3: Grown and fattened on likely corn and soy that's GMO to create this chicken in six weeks that you're eating. They take it to a mass slaughter house where they dip it in chlorine and other toxins to make it safe, and it's leaving those residues on the chicken. And this bird isn't just seasoned with normal herbs and spices. They have preservatives in here like sodium phosphate that's linked to liver and kidney damage and carrageenan, which can degrade into polygenin, which is a known inflammatory agent and possible carcinogen. Speaker 1: Yeah. I found information on that from another doctor. Speaker 4: Doctor Tanya, what's one thing you never buy from the grocery store? Rotisserie chicken. Why? The bag the chicken is stored in is plastic, and it leaches chemicals that get into the food when it's sitting under the heat. Most stores inject the chickens with additives so that they can last on the shelf longer. Chickens are often marinated in a preservative solution. We opt for preservative free cosmetics, and then we're eating preservative infested chicken. And carrageenan. This is a chemical that precooked poultry is injected with to make it tender and juicy, but guess what? It can also inflame the gut. Carrageenan is banned in Europe, but not in The United States. Speaker 1: Yet again, another ingredient item banned in other countries, but allowed in The US. I know we love it because it's such a good deal. It's cheap. It's easy. It's taste great. I'm on the struggle bus with you guys on this one, but I'm reading countless articles, discussion about preservatives, labeling accuracy and contamination that has put all this belief at risk. Now I recently was at a Costco filming this right here. I was there. I saw it. It says no added hormones or steroids in a chicken that is fully developed in six weeks. Right there at the bottom, you can see it says no added preservatives. And have you ever wondered why it's in a plastic bag that you can put in your microwave? Microwave safe, plastic bag, put the two and two together. Speaker 3: Right out of the oven stored in a plastic bag. Nobody really knows what type of plastic bag this is, but it's likely a mix of polyethylene terephthalate. Remember that word phthalate? It's a known hormone disruptor, and this is microwave safe. So you're putting hot food into a plastic bag that can leach these hormone disrupting chemicals, and a 117,000,000 of these are eaten each year in The US. So share this video with your friends. Speaker 1: This is what I'm talking about. Hundreds of thousand millions of these chickens are sold in The US a year. This is why you need to share this out. Sorry folks, but they're just cutting too many corners these days. And it comes down to us. And who's gonna suffer? Us. They're gonna make a ton of money. So if you dive into the legal term no preservatives, they found loopholes to where they can actually put this legally. This is where the class action lawsuit or the lawsuit from a couple people in California are like, hold up. Wait a minute, you guys are using this stuff and this is preservatives, but you guys are saying it's no preservatives. In short, the processing agents that they're using can be deemed not to be called preservatives. Oh yeah, you're getting something with no preservatives, organic as it gets. Yet at the end of the day, you and I would look at that cross eyed and be like, Yeah, what they're using works the same way. It's not what you think it is. That's just what it is. I'm not sure if you guys have seen what these large scale poultry processing facilities look like, but it's not happy chickens walking around a field eating green grass and bugs. Think about the cross contamination that occurs and what safeguards exist and where they fail. For certain that these huge plants they fail. Great thing for Costco is they can scale. They can pump out millions of birds in six weeks and give it to us for a low price even with them losing money. That's right. Like I said, scammedemic kind of they will take a loss on this because they're producing at such a large scale and cutting corners just to get you through the door for that $4 and 99 rotisserie chicken so that you put hundreds of dollars of their stuff in your cart and check out. Other stores, Walmart, other grocery stores, they have caught on to this. They know what Costco found out. They're all doing the same thing. This is information that you need to consider. Speaker 5: Alright, guys. Here are three scary facts about Costco chicken that'll hopefully make you never buy this shit ever again. Alright. So I had to move on over to Lowe's to show you part two of this video. So they start by bathing the chicken in chlorine. They actually put it in a chlorine bath, and it soaks in this chlorine for about thirty minutes. Why does that and should that matter to you? I'm gonna tell you. Next thing they do is they inject the chicken with a chemical compound called TSP. It's trisodium phosphate. Guys, I'm just at Lowe's pulling this stuff off the shelves. This is crazy. I mean, this is the shit that you're allowing into your body. Read the warning label on this and tell me that this is a good idea to ingest in the human body. And then the last thing, which is I don't know if it's scarier than the other two things. They're all really bad. But they they let the chicken sit in these plastic bags, and they sit there for days on end, hours, days, whatever. It's sitting in your fridge for probably a long time. There are microplastics being released into the chicken from the plastic bags that are getting into your body, and it is unbelievably bad for you. Mean, there's microplastics showing up in human hearts, in in in men's testicles. Like, it's really, really bad, guys. So here's the deal. Everyone's gonna ask me, what do I do? Buy your chickens local. Go to your local farmer's market. Go to your local farms. They are a little bit more expensive, so just eat less or go or or just be resourceful and find deals. But stop buying this shit because it's literally killing you. Speaker 1: When I go to Home Depot and I pull TSP off the shelves, what kind of chemical is that? Speaker 6: So when you grab TSP at Home Depot, you're holding trisodium phosphate. It's a heavy duty cleaner, often used to degrease and prep surfaces before painting. Powerful stuff. Just use it with care. Speaker 1: What's the caution label say? Speaker 6: The caution label on TSP usually warns about skin and eye irritation. So gloves and goggles are a must. It'll also say not to inhale the dust and to keep it away from kids. Basically, respect the power and you'll be good. Speaker 1: What if you eat it? Speaker 6: If you ingest TSP, it's no joke. It can cause serious irritation. Think burns in your mouth, throat and stomach. The label will tell you to seek medical help immediately. No waiting. Speaker 1: So yeah, definitely not a seasoning. Speaker 1: But if you go down the rabbit hole on that one, it's gonna say that it's a different type and it's the safe version and the FDA would never allow that specific one in your food. Just a different one. So when they put it in like rotisserie chicken, they're probably just putting safe amounts of it. Speaker 6: Oh no, don't worry. They're not putting TSP in your rotisserie chicken. That'd be a disaster. Some food safe phosphates might be used in processing, totally different and regulated, but the cleaning product TSP strictly for walls, not wings. Speaker 1: Are you sure it's not the same thing? Because a lot of reels say it's the same thing. Speaker 6: Yeah. I get why those reels pop up, but trust me, food grade phosphates and TSP cleaner are not the same. The food versions are heavily regulated for safety. If they try tossing the Home Depot stuff in your chicken, the FDA would have a feel day. So no worries. Speaker 1: I'm telling you guys, it's a deep dive in half. Make informed decisions. Realize that these big companies are all about making the money, not about bringing you the safest product. And trust me, it's a little bit of a stab to me too because I like easy, I like tasty and we need that sometimes. But in this case, they may have jumped through too many hoops too many times, and it's putting Us consumers possibly in a bad position. Speaker 1: I've got two other great videos. If you guys didn't see these videos, you gotta watch these. These will blow your mind equally as much. Please let me know what you think down in the comments. Thumbs up. Share this out and subscribe because I've got a lot more coming down the pipe. Keep prepping, keep learning, keep doing. We'll see you guys on the next one.

Speaker 0 argues that a Mussolini-quote about fascism being corporatism explains today’s emerging fascist state in America, describing a system where the government merges with corporate power. He notes a prior report on digital ID deployment by private companies with customer consent, claiming the government can collect and utilize data under legal immunity while avoiding a mandate on biometric ID. He asserts that, as during COVID, individuals can choose to consent or “leave the reservation” to fend for themselves. He introduces the idea that the social credit score is actively deployed in the US. Speaker 1 shares a personal experience about ordering food on Uber Eats and noticing an algorithm determining prices based on personal data, prompting reflection on how pricing works. Speaker 0 explains that Communist China’s social credit system, launched in 2014 to “build trust in society by punishing individual behavior,” allows banks to shut off money and restrict travel, enabling the government to condition behavior individually. He claims this is now being deployed in the United States as algorithmic pricing, using automated programs to dynamically set the price of goods and services in real time and on an individual basis. The algorithms rely on large amounts of data, including customer behavior, and can charge one individual more than another for the same product based on willingness to pay and personal data. He asserts that the social credit score is present across the US, and the New York Algorithmic Pricing Disclosure Act (launched 11/10/2025) compels private corporations to notify consumers that they are being charged based on personalized algorithmic pricing. The law defines personal data as any data that identifies or could be linked to a specific consumer or device, regardless of whether the data was voluntarily provided. He says this makes every aspect of life usable to determine pricing, calling the act the first of its kind and predicting expansion to all 50 states. He concludes that the social credit score is real in America and suggests a carbon tax is soon to follow. He also mentions an “AI run cryptocurrency economy” as the United States government’s and big banks’ chosen solution in response to debt and AI competition. Speaker 2 presents a scenario for 2027: special economic zones with zero red tape, with government intervention to accelerate progress. Speaker 3 adds that the promise of vast gains could attract governments to these zones despite protests from workers who would lose jobs and rely on universal basic income, suggesting trillions in new wealth as a compelling incentive. He notes the ongoing arms race with China and the ease with which forecasts could influence presidential decisions, especially when contrasted with regulatory delays. Speaker 0 closes with attribution to Greg Reese.

The transcript discusses LED lights and a supposed IoT (Internet of Things) capability. It states that on 04/09/2019, Target confirmed they had provided Internet of Things lighting. IoT lighting means everything is connected and data can be collected from ongoing activities. The example given is that if you walk into Target with your phone, the lights will sync up to your phone to obtain data about what you’re purchasing and what you’re doing. The narration links this event to the period just before 2020, suggesting it occurred prior to the surge in shopping and alleged shortages that year. The speaker then asserts that these LED lights have microscopic cameras in them so they can watch people from every angle. The claim is that other stores, such as Whole Foods, are using similar technology in price tags that can scan and see who is buying items to collect data. The main takeaway presented is that if you bring LED lights into your home, the same type of technology claimed to be in these stores could be in the LED lights you bring into your house.

Speaker claims to reveal "the biggest scam that Uber is running right now" (originally found by a Reddit user). At Newark Airport, you can choose your airline in Terminal A. Example: Delta in Terminal A costs $39.94; United in the same Terminal A costs 5994. When you go back out and test again, it's back to $36.94, suggesting real-time price updates. A Lyft test at the same airport shows United in Terminal A at $40.93, Delta at $40.99, and American at $40.81; the prices are similar. The speaker notes that "On Lyft, it just really doesn't even matter what airline you pick." The moral: "the moral of the story is either don't put it in airline, test out a few and see which is better, or just use Lyft."

Speaker 0 describes his previous online behavior and now presents it on video. He has been trolling T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert and John Ledger, the CEO prior to the merger, for over a month to ensure they knew his name and who he was. He claims they lied to him and America about the T-Mobile merger. He states that the promises made in front of Congress—to lower prices and add jobs—were lies. He asserts that T-Mobile raised the prices of rate plans and has completed multiple layoffs since the merger went live in 2020. He notes that last week, T-Mobile told customers on certain plans that they would automatically transition to a more expensive plan if they did not call into customer service and opt out. He mentions that Mike Sievert launched Price Lock last year, which was him promising to never raise the price on customers. He criticizes CNN for naming Mike Sievert “CEO of the Year” for 2022, saying that liars support liars. He asserts that T-Mobile and the parent company Deutsche Telekom are not who people think they are, and that T-Mobile US should be thought of as the German government and the World Economic Forum. He states he is cool with gay and trans people, but argues that T-Mobile is on a different level, distinguishing between being cool with gay and trans versus shoving it down society’s throat and forcing people to believe in it. He claims T-Mobile doesn’t care about gay or trans people and argues the company used the agenda to divide people. He questions a discrepancy in corporate spending, asking why the company would pay $25 for gender reassignment but only $12 for in vitro fertilization, concluding that the company “thinks gender assignments are twice as cool.”

Kamala Harris is talking about fixing the economy, which they said was booming. To fix it, they want to give more control to the government to control prices and prevent gouging, even though the government created the problem. They shut down the economy and transferred $3.4 trillion from the lower and middle class to the elites, allowing large corporations to grow while wiping out competition. The speaker claims Harris doesn't mention profit margins, net profits, revenues, or inflation. For example, grocery stores with 2-3% profit margins saw revenues increase due to COVID-related inflation, but their profit margin remained the same. The speaker says the government doesn't talk about reducing taxes, regulations, or insurance costs. Gas stations make 3-7¢ profit per gallon, while the government makes 53¢ through taxes and regulations. The speaker concludes that government policies, not businesses, are responsible for price gouging by eliminating competition.

Buying products on Amazon is easy, but many sellers struggle under the company's policies. A documentary titled "Amazon Market Power Monopoly" reveals how Amazon controls pricing, forcing sellers to keep prices low or risk losing visibility on the platform. For instance, if a seller lists a product cheaper elsewhere, Amazon can remove their "buy box," drastically reducing sales. Sellers like Molson Hart, who runs an educational toy company, face constant pressure to raise prices due to Amazon's increasing fees, which also affect their pricing on other platforms. With Amazon controlling about 50% of the online market, many sellers feel trapped. Despite challenges, some sellers still find success, but the landscape is increasingly dominated by foreign competitors, particularly from China, who benefit from lower costs and fewer regulations.

How A Bag Of Doritos Explains The US Economy
reSee.it Podcast Summary
Matt Stler discusses how the pricing of Doritos illustrates broader economic issues, particularly price discrimination between large retailers and independent grocers. He highlights a lawsuit against Pepsi alleging that it offers better wholesale prices to big chains like Walmart, allowing them to sell products at lower retail prices than small stores can purchase them for. This dynamic creates significant challenges for independent grocers, leading to higher prices for consumers and contributing to the rise of food deserts. Stler emphasizes that this price discrimination fosters a lack of variety in the market and links it to broader economic consolidation, affecting various industries beyond groceries. He calls for renewed enforcement of the Robinson-Patman Act to address these disparities.
