A short YouTube talk (by Catherine Bell) delivered at the Salem Witch Museum that draws parallels between the 1692 Salem witch trials and contemporary financial markets and media-driven panic (notably around COVID-19). Speakers argue that historical ‘hysteria’ and government overreach have analogues in modern economic policy and urge viewers to learn investing strategies—specifically using IRAs and real estate—and to engage with the creators’ newsletter and resources.

My fellow compassion capitalists, entrepreneurs, IRA investors, how does government overreach and ignorance destroy our personal finance? And what does any of this have to do with Kathryn and I being here at the Salem Witch Museum? I'm glad that nobody asked. You see, the question we posed to you today is, do you believe there's some sort of hocus pocus that's been going on in the financial markets when it comes to investing? Do you believe that the media has some power, some ability to cast a spell on us? Do you believe what kind of witchcraft has been conjured up, if you will, in order to cause the COVID pandemic, the panic, and the ability to destroy our economy? If only we could go back in history, knowing that history is the study of human nature. If only this has ever happened before. Oh, wait. 1692. Salem government overreach to literally a puritanical standpoint of view. You see, when we. When we think of witches, we think of green old ladies and brewing the pot and flying around in brooms and black cats. And as you can see, we have orange cats on the sidewalk today. So Salem has really done its. Done its part in. To bind all into all of this. But. And who were the witches? And why did 19 of them lose their lives up there on Proctor Hill without just cause? Well, you see, when we look at truly what a Wiccan is, what a witch was, they were the midwives. They were the ones who. Yes, occasionally there was freshly exhumed body from the grave that was taken, but it was purely for medical science. They needed to know how things worked. They did go out, and they get. They got. You know, they went. Colonel Sanders. They got the seven herbs and spices. They were the midwives. If it wasn't for the witches, there's a whole lot of people that would have died, more so in childbirth than. What did we owe them? Everything. They were on the forefront of medical science. In fact, today we call that going to medical school. There's a lot of people that pay a lot of money to learn the witchcraft of ages ago. So as we're here and as we go over this and put everything into the correct perspective, I would just ask us to reflect on what's going on today. What kind of hysteria are we being fed? Are we going to sacrifice our economy innocently, or are we going to stand up and correct the wrongs of the past and the wrongs of today? Kathryn's going to tell you how.
