Can Socrates Predict the Lottery?


Posted Apr 4, 2024 by Martin Armstrong

Can Socrates predict the lottery? We ran tests on that probably 30 years ago, and the results were interesting. No matter what it is, there is always a cycle. You cannot predict the lottery number as a whole, for the possible variables are tremendous.

In the past few years, we have seen continual advertisements for record-breaking jackpots, but this is not some mere game that you can strategically win. You must realize you are betting against the government, and the house never loses.

Desperate for funds, the government has seemingly been promising larger jackpot prizes. Now, they claim that 65% of their earnings will go to the person with the winning ticket. The federal government takes a mandatory cut of all jackpot winnings and pushes all winners into the top tax bracket. State governments also demand a cut of jackpot winnings. There is a fee for public beneficiaries, retailer commissions, and administration costs as well.

You have a 1 in 292.2 million chance of winning the Powerball lottery and a 1 in 302.6 million chance of hitting the Mega Millions lottery. However, you’re more likely to be struck by lightning (1 in 15,000), attacked by a shark (1 in 3.75 million), or die from a bee sting (1 in 55,764), to name a few.

In addition to collecting taxes on winnings, the government receives tons of funding from ticket purchases. New York, the most popular state for lotto, earned over $10.545 billion from lottery revenue in FY23, allocating $3.7 to the Lottery Aid Education fund. This is a stark jump from FY21 when the state earned $8.5 billion on lottery revenue.

The likelihood that you, as an individual, will win is extremely rare. The likelihood that the government will win is absolutely guaranteed, and they earn more for extended contests and larger jackpots.

What we did discover was partial success on individual numbers—123456. For example, partial success is running an individual cycle on each digit. Trying to run a cycle on the number as a whole was pointless.

The US Canadian Border is Being Flooded with Illegals

Let me explain something: within a few hours of taking the White House, Biden’s VERY FIRST order was to open the borders. They are flooding the country with nearly 14 million illegal aliens, and that does not count the people who were not caught. I am getting emails from people who were waited on by an illegal alien waitress who barely spoke English and did not even comprehend that when you order drinks, they come before the meal. This seems to be an interesting new twist. If I want to migrate to Zurich, I have to speak German. This is all about changing America for politics.

Canada’s Population Hits New High


Posted Apr 2, 2024 by Martin Armstrong

PM Justin Trudeau’s goal of importing immigrants is going as planned. Statistics Canada reported that the nation added over 1.27 million new residents between January 1, 2023, and January 1, 2024. This 3.2% uptick in the population is the highest on record since 1957.

Yes, immigration is the main reason that Canada’s population is soaring. Statistics Canada said that the population would have only grown around 1.2% if not for open border policies. The Trudeau Administration insists that overflowing the country with immigrants is mandatory to increase labor. “It is not the bodies we are bringing in; these are bodies that fill in the empty spaces in the labour market,” a rep for the Toronto Metropolitan Centre for Immigration and Settlement at Toronto Metropolitan University, told Global News. “They bring a very-high level of skills.” Canada’s unemployment rate rose to 5.8% in February 2024 from 5.7% the month prior. Notably, young men are increasingly unemployed based on the data.

Where are the highly-skilled workers that the left speaks of? Canada is facing a shortage of healthcare providers. One in five Canadians in Ontario (2.2 million people) do not have regular access to a primary care physician as the universal health care system has failed. Toronto and other provinces have the exact same crisis. Countless health care workers fled the field in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and never returned. The doctors imported to Canada are not even permitted to work, with current estimates stating 13,000 qualified immigrants are currently unable to practice medicine due to red tape.

Canada is experiencing a housing crisis, with an estimated 35,000 homeless people living on the streets at any given night. Around 235,000 Canadians are unhoused. There is a massive shortage of housing, with new builds reaching only 320,000 in 2022. Most estimates believe that Canada will need to build an additional 4 million new housing units by 2030, of course, to accommodate the CURRENT population.

Canada’s economy, infrastructure, and society cannot accommodate this rapid population boom. This is happening among all the World Economic Forum-guided nations. It is completely unsustainable by design.

Mexican President Obrador Blackmails US Over Migrant Crisis


Posted originally on Apr 2, 2024 by Martin Armstrong

Border Wall Mexico

The US-Mexico border crisis has been a disaster for Mexico. The US openly asked citizens from other nations to flood its border with Mexico without concern for the repercussions. Mexico cannot handle the influx of migrants storming its own borders on their way to the Land of the Free. Mexican President Obrador is asking the US to fix issues throughout Latin America in exchange for aiding the crisis at the border.

“We do want for the root causes to be attended to, for them to be seriously looked at,” Obrador said on the show 60 Minutes. The president then stated that the US should send $20 billion in aid annually to Latin American countries and nearly admitted that his requests are a form of diplomatic blackmail. He is also demanding that the US grant Mexican migrants legal immigration status.

Lifting sanctions on Venezuela and ending the embargo in Cuba are two potential solutions to improve conditions in those countries as sanctions never work anyhow. However, Obrador is completely overreaching with his other suggestions and has become embolden with Biden in power. It is not America’s responsibility to fund other nations or their people, especially considering America is $32 trillion in debt and counting. Providing aid is NEVER the solution because governments mismanage the funds, ensuring they funnel back into their own government.

America cannot fix failed socialist policies that other nations adopted. It is completely unreasonable to expect America to fund other nations. Why should America prioritize Mexican immigrants? Why do people want to leave your nation, President Obrador? Are you doing anything about your massive cartel crisis that is causing people to flee for their lives?

MexicoFirstPolicy

The quality of living in America far exceeds the conditions in the majority of Latin America. Migrants are receiving more from the US government per month than they would have received in a year actually working in their home countries. These suggestions/threats are complete blackmail, and I highly question whether he would have the nerve to make these statements if we had a strong leader as president. We went from asking Mexico to fund the border wall to allowing Mexico to extort the US to fund failed socialist countries.

Women Across America in Danger Thanks to Open Borders

LakenRiley

Laken Riley’s death by an illegal alien was entirely preventable. Absolutely nothing was done to prevent another similar situation from happening again, and now young women are being murdered by migrants all across America. The left has been suppressing these stories, but these women deserve justice.

In Chicago, where only criminals are safe, another young college student was raped by someone who should have never been in America in the first place. Elvis Hernandez-Pernalet of Venezuela followed a young woman home from the UIC campus. This coward attacked her from behind, raped her, robbed her of her jewelry, and fled the scene of the crime. This is the SECOND woman that Hernandez-Pernalet followed home from a train and sexually assaulted. He also has previous charges for robbing a department store. “[He] actually admits to the police that he believed he had killed her and [is] seen attempting to move the victim’s body,” said Hinton. Hernandez-Pernalet ran when he realized a witness saw what was happening.

A Haitian migrant from a country amid a civil war, seeking asylum, has been charged with raping and murdering a 15-year-old girl in Massachusetts. Cory Alvarez, 26, was part of Biden’s disastrous program that has been using federal funds to FLY MIGRANTS INTO THE UNITED STATES. The Department of Homeland Security said that flying illegal, unverified migrants into America is a “safe and orderly way to reach the United States.” The government does not care about its own citizens, or anyone for that matter.

Human Rights

Ruby Garcia was a 25-year-old woman from Michigan with her entire life ahead of her. Brandon Ortiz-Vite, an illegal immigrant with an extensive criminal record, admitted to murdering her. He shot her point blank and left her body on the side of a highway. He was deported once in 2020 but managed to re-enter America thanks to Biden’s open border policies. The media is portraying this incident as another casualty of domestic violence.

U.S. Representative Hillary Scholten, a far-left Democrat from Michigan, finally acknowledged that there is a problem. “My heart breaks for Ruby Garcia and her family as they grapple with this unspeakable tragedy. The individual who committed this heinous crime should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I’m continuing to push for bipartisan immigration reform that both secures our border and makes sure that individuals who come to our country are fully vetted to keep our communities safe,” she stated.

Why are we not protecting American women? Why is the safety of our women a partisan issue?

Migrant women are being assaulted as they wait to cross the border. There is an ongoing open sex trafficking operation happening at the US-Mexico border that no one wants to discuss. “You have to pay with your body,” one migrant told the NY Times. “They raped us so many times they didn’t see us as human beings anymore,” she explained of her harrowing story where she was locked in a room, drugged, and repeatedly raped. They are also doing this to children. It is to sickening to discuss.

MeToo Kavanaugh

Joe Biden, Border Tzar VP Kamala Harris, and everyone supporting open border policies are directly responsible for this massive human rights abuse. The #MeToo crowd and feminists are silent. They’re OK with the situation so long as the victim can have an abortion after. The left insists that only the conservatives have a problem with millions of undocumented people surging our borders.

A Blast from the Past

PEI1990 Capital Flows

COMMENT: Marty, I was cleaning out my office. I get around to once every 31.4 years, and I found your report that was controversial back in 1990 when you were at war against the fundamentalists who were always getting it wrong, as they still do today. I scanned it in and thought you should post this for the newcomers. You invented capital flow analysis, and you may not qualify for a Nobel Peace Prize since you advocate for peace rather than war, but you are in a category all by yourself. Being a trader rather than an academic who was in the trenches rather than in an ivory tower. People need to know that.

See you in London

Smith Invisible Hand

REPLY: Very interesting. Yes, they always use war to cover up something else. Hitler and Napoleon were trying to resurrect the old Roman Empire over all of Europe. The days of empire building inspired by the Physiocrats that the wealth of a nation was agriculture, so you conquered nation after nation are long gone. Adam Smith wrote his Wealth of Nations to challenge the French Physiocrats and their view that only agriculture was wealth. He argued that it was the total productivity of a nation that constituted its wealth.

Marx v Smith

Then along came Marx, and the wealth became labor, and he tore apart the economy out of jealousy. He attributed nothing to human imagination, the source of all economic advancement. Communism proved that the government was incompetent in regulating or developing the economy.

Smith highest impertinance

Smith was NOT an academic. He went out to observe how everything truly functioned. The socialists hate Smith because they follow Marx and want to force the economy to function the way they think it should. They reject any concept of a business cycle and come up with stupid theories like Random Walks, for that means that they can then manipulate society because it is all just random.

AI Computing

They are now all in a tissy. The government wants to REGULATE AI, and Biden put our illustrious VP in charge. There is a real threat that they will regulate what they do not understand and, in the process, destroy the industry, as they did with investment advice and force people offshore, giving birth to the Hedge Fund Industry.
