TRIGGERnometry
ICE, Immigration and Cultural Suicide - Lionel Shriver

Is that why you wanted to talk about this issue?

TRIGGERnometry
ICE, Immigration and Cultural Suicide - Lionel Shriver

One of the interesting things that I think you explore in the book is why this is all happening in the West, why there's been these gigantic waves of mass immigration in the last 20 years in particular.

And it was interesting, I was listening to you on another podcast with our friend Winston, and he asked you about the comments that Jim Ratcliffe made when he said England's been colonized by immigrants.

And he said, do you think that's true?

And you said,

Of course, which I thought was surprising, actually, because I think that the reason I don't agree with what he said, even though I understand why he said it, is that I think to say something is colonization is to imply that the people who are coming are responsible for it, whereas what your book actually explores is the people who are responsible for the ways of mass immigration, the people who are encouraging and making it possible.

Encouraged and, in fact, invited, I would argue.

TRIGGERnometry
ICE, Immigration and Cultural Suicide - Lionel Shriver

Quite.

And you mentioned that you agree with me that this is being invited.

What do you think is the motivation for all of this?

TRIGGERnometry
ICE, Immigration and Cultural Suicide - Lionel Shriver

Or were there motivations?

TRIGGERnometry

I'm sure there's more than one.

I'm about to share one of those ideas that, once you understand it, changes how you think about owning gold entirely.

This is not a normal gold advert.

TRIGGERnometry

Today's sponsor is Monetary Metals, and what they're doing is rethinking how gold is used.

TRIGGERnometry
ICE, Immigration and Cultural Suicide - Lionel Shriver

Traditionally, gold ownership is passive.

TRIGGERnometry
ICE, Immigration and Cultural Suicide - Lionel Shriver

You buy gold, store it, and hope it preserves value over time.

TRIGGERnometry
ICE, Immigration and Cultural Suicide - Lionel Shriver

But while it sits there, it doesn't do anything, and often you're paying storage or insurance fees just to hold it.

TRIGGERnometry

Monetary Metals approaches gold differently.

They allow gold owners to earn a yield on their gold paid in gold, not in dollars or pounds, but in physical gold ounces.
