But let's get right to it, Michael. I'm going to pull up โ you have a new book that has recently released called
The Collapse of Antiquity: Greece and Rome as Civilization's Oligarchic Turning Point.
I'm going to pull up your website. Everyone can find this link in the description of this video. But this book traces the roots of this creditor oligarchy.
Right now there is this banking collapse. We've had a few banks in the United States collapse. There's a lot of concern after Credit Suisse was absorbed by UBS, the Swiss bank.
And there's a lot of worry in the financial markets, among these large monopoly creditors. What is going on, and how does your book help us understand how we got to this place?
