More Transcripts from Mexican Activists Calling for Energy Independence. Silver Resources Belong to People of Mexico
Is Mexico Moving Quickly towards Nationalizing Silver?
Let’s begin with some historical context of why Energy self sufficiency is the best practice for building the wealth of nations.
Foreword: The concept of energy self-sufficiency has played a pivotal role in the survival and success of nations throughout history. Here, we explore five nations that have thrived due to their control over energy resources, highlighting their historical contexts and the importance of energy independence.
1. The Roman Empire (27 BC - 476 AD)
The Roman Empire's success was partly due to its ability to harness energy resources efficiently. The Romans utilized a variety of energy sources, including human and animal labor, water mills, and wood for fuel. Their advanced engineering skills allowed them to build extensive infrastructure, such as roads and aqueducts, which facilitated trade and military conquest. This energy management was crucial in maintaining the empire's vast territories and supporting its economy.
2. The Dutch Republic (1581 - 1795)
During the 17th century, the Dutch Republic emerged as a major economic power, known as the Dutch Golden Age. The Dutch were pioneers in wind energy, using windmills for various industrial processes, including sawing wood, grinding grain, and draining wetlands to create arable land. This energy independence allowed them to dominate global trade and finance, establishing a powerful maritime empire.
3. Great Britain (18th - 19th Century)
The Industrial Revolution, which began in Great Britain in the late 18th century, was fueled by the country's abundant coal reserves. The transition from wood to coal as a primary energy source enabled Britain to industrialize rapidly, leading to unprecedented economic growth and global influence. Control over coal resources allowed Britain to power its factories, railways, and ships, establishing it as the world's leading industrial nation.
4. The United States (20th Century)
In the 20th century, the United States became a global superpower, largely due to its energy resources. The discovery of vast oil reserves in Texas and other states provided the U.S. with a reliable energy supply, fueling its industrial expansion and military capabilities. Energy self-sufficiency allowed the U.S. to play a decisive role in both World Wars and to exert significant influence in global politics and economics throughout the century.
5. Norway (21st Century)
In recent times, Norway has become one of the world's wealthiest nations per capita, thanks to its energy resources. The discovery of oil and natural gas in the North Sea in the late 20th century transformed Norway's economy. The government established a sovereign wealth fund to manage oil revenues, ensuring long-term economic stability. Norway's commitment to renewable energy, particularly hydropower, further enhances its energy independence and sustainability.
The Importance of Energy Independence
Energy independence is a critical factor in a nation's ability to maintain sovereignty and stability. Nations that control their energy resources are less vulnerable to external pressures and can pursue independent foreign and domestic policies. Energy self-sufficiency contributes to economic resilience, allowing countries to withstand global market fluctuations and geopolitical tensions.
Historically, nations with energy independence have been able to sustain their economies, support military endeavors, and maintain political stability. In contrast, countries reliant on external energy sources often face challenges such as economic dependency, political instability, and vulnerability to external manipulation.
In conclusion, the control of energy resources has been a decisive factor in the rise and fall of nations throughout history. From the Roman Empire to modern-day Norway, energy self-sufficiency has enabled countries to thrive and maintain their sovereignty in an ever-changing world.
Silver is the #1 Rated Commodity for All Future Energy
Now understand what Mexico is doing to secure their Energy self sufficiency:
Mexico, the world's leading silver producer, stands on the brink of becoming a global superpower by nationalizing its silver industry. This move could mirror the historic expropriation of oil in 1938, which significantly bolstered Mexico's economy and national security.
Silver: A Strategic Resource
Silver's unique properties as the best conductor of electricity make it indispensable for emerging technologies. Its demand is soaring in sectors like aerospace, military, solar energy, AI data centers, silver batteries, and fuel cell energy. As the world transitions to cleaner energy and advanced technologies, silver's role becomes increasingly critical. Nationalizing silver could ensure that Mexico capitalizes on this growing demand, securing its economic future and enhancing its geopolitical influence.
Historical Parallel: Oil Nationalization of 1938
In 1938, President Lázaro Cárdenas nationalized Mexico's oil industry, seizing control from foreign companies. This bold move ensured that oil revenues benefited the Mexican people and strengthened the national economy. Similarly, nationalizing silver would allow Mexico to control a vital resource, ensuring that profits from silver mining contribute to national development rather than flowing overseas.
National Security and Economic Independence
Nationalizing silver aligns with former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador's (AMLO) strategy to secure Mexico's energy future. Following the nationalization of lithium, silver will most likely be next, given its strategic importance.
By controlling silver production, Mexico could stabilize its economy, reduce dependency on foreign investment, and protect against global market fluctuations.
The Call for Nationalization
Given the dwindling silver reserves and the increasing demand, nationalization is a strategic imperative. It would enable Mexico to manage its resources sustainably, invest in technological advancements, and ensure that silver's benefits are maximized for national growth. This move would not only secure Mexico's position as a leading silver producer but also transform it into a formidable player on the global stage, much like the oil nationalization did in the past.

Grassroots movement for Silver Sovereignty in Mexico
Industrias Extractivas en México
Explotación por Corporaciones Extranjeras
Las industrias extractivas en México, especialmente aquellas propiedad de corporaciones estadounidenses y canadienses, han sido durante mucho tiempo una fuente de explotación, extrayendo recursos valiosos como la plata mientras dejan a las comunidades locales empobrecidas.
Colonialismo Moderno
Esta explotación es una forma moderna de colonialismo, donde los inversores extranjeros cosechan los beneficios de la riqueza natural de México, mientras que los verdaderos dueños—el pueblo de México—quedan con degradación ambiental y disparidad económica.
Soberanía de la Plata
La plata, un recurso que debería ser un pilar de prosperidad para México, en cambio, llena los bolsillos de entidades extranjeras. Esto requiere un cambio radical en la perspectiva y la política—un movimiento hacia la "Soberanía de la Plata".
Reclamación de Derechos
El pueblo de México debe reclamar sus derechos sobre estos recursos, asegurando que la riqueza generada por la minería de plata beneficie a las comunidades locales, no a accionistas distantes. Esto no es solo un problema económico; es una cuestión de justicia y autodeterminación.
Nacionalización de la Industria de la Plata
México ya no está dispuesto a ser tratado como una colonia de recursos para naciones más ricas. Ha llegado el momento de adoptar una postura audaz y revolucionaria: la nacionalización de la industria de la plata. Al tomar el control de sus recursos, México puede asegurar que las ganancias de la minería de plata se reinviertan en el país, financiando infraestructura, educación y salud, y fomentando un desarrollo sostenible.
Llamado a la Acción
Este movimiento hacia la Soberanía de la Plata es un llamado a la unidad del pueblo mexicano contra la explotación extranjera. Es una demanda de independencia económica y un rechazo a las prácticas neocoloniales que han suprimido durante mucho tiempo el potencial de la nación.
Propiedad de los Recursos
Los recursos de México pertenecen a su gente, y es hora de que reclamen su legítima propiedad y construyan un futuro donde puedan prosperar en sus propios términos.
The extractive industries (Silver mining specifically) in Mexico, particularly those owned by U.S. and Canadian corporations, have long been a source of exploitation, extracting precious resources like silver from Mexico while leaving the local communities impoverished.
This exploitation is a modern form of colonialism, where foreign investors reap the benefits of Mexico's natural wealth, while the rightful owners—the people of Mexico—are left with environmental degradation and economic disparity.
Silver, a resource that should be a cornerstone of prosperity for Mexico, is instead lining the pockets of foreign entities. This calls for a radical shift in perspective and policy—a movement towards "Silver Sovereignty."
The people of Mexico must reclaim their rights to these resources, ensuring that the wealth generated from silver mining benefits local communities, not distant shareholders.
This is not merely an economic issue; it is a matter of justice and self-determination. Mexico is no longer content to be treated as a resource colony for wealthier nations. The time has come for a bold and revolutionary stance: the nationalization of the silver industry.
By taking control of its resources, Mexico can ensure that the profits from silver mining are invested back into the country, funding infrastructure, education, and healthcare, and fostering sustainable development.
This movement towards Silver Sovereignty is a clarion call for the Mexican people to unite against foreign exploitation. It is a demand for economic independence and a rejection of the neocolonial practices that have long suppressed the nation's potential. The resources of Mexico belong to its people, and it is time for them to claim their rightful ownership and build a future where they can thrive on their terms.
Silver Academy Reiterates TEMPORARY HOLD ON INVESTING IN OPERATIONS OUT OF MEXICO

DISCLAIMER: This is not the Position of the Silver Academy just copies of transcripts received through our web crawlers and DMs
“We call upon the people of Mexico to rise and demand the nationalization of silver. This precious resource, a symbol of our nation's wealth, must be reclaimed from the clutches of foreign corporations and greedy capitalists. It is time to "cast off the yoke of oppression" and ensure that "Mexico's mineral resources belong to the People of Mexico, not Wealthy and Fat Anglo Americans."
Silver sovereignty is not merely an economic proposition; it is a moral imperative. The prosperity of our people must take precedence over the wealth of a privileged few. As Chavez and Castro advocated for shared wealth and power, we too must strive for the "greatest good for the greatest many" by nationalizing silver. This is not just an economic strategy but a path to social justice and environmental stewardship.
Five-Step Action Plan
Resistance:
The first step in our journey is to build a robust resistance movement. We must unite communities, environmental groups, and social activists to oppose the exploitation of our resources. Through peaceful protests, educational campaigns, and grassroots organizing, we will raise awareness and galvanize support for nationalization.Labor Unions:
Labor unions are the backbone of our movement. By empowering workers in the mining sector, we can ensure that their voices are heard. Unions must advocate for fair wages, safe working conditions, and the right to share in the profits of our nation's wealth. Together, we will "expropriate the expropriators" and reclaim what is rightfully ours.Violent Takeover of Mining Equipment:
Inspired by movements like Earth First, we must be prepared to take direct action. This means seizing control of mining equipment and facilities to halt the extraction of our resources by foreign entities. While violence is not our preferred method, it remains a necessary tool in the face of relentless exploitation and environmental degradation.Dismantling of US or Canadian Mining Corporations:
The next step is the systematic dismantling of foreign mining corporations operating on our soil. These entities have long profited at the expense of our people and environment. By leveraging legal, economic, and social pressure, we will force them to relinquish control and return our resources to the people.Distribution of Silver Assets:
Finally, the wealth generated from our silver must be distributed equitably. We propose the creation of a national fund to manage silver assets, ensuring that profits benefit workers and their communities. This fund will invest in education, healthcare, and infrastructure, fostering a more just and prosperous society.
In conclusion, the nationalization of silver is a revolutionary act of reclaiming our sovereignty and ensuring the prosperity of our people. As we embark on this journey, let us remember the words of those who came before us: "Death to Greedy Capitalists" and "Silver sovereignty is for the prosperity of the People over the Wealthy." Together, we will build a future where our resources serve the many, not the few.

Rotate out of Risky Mexico into these 5 Miners endorsed by The Silver Academy
The Silver Academy endorses 5 Silver miners (snapshot of their performance the past 6 months)
Our endorsement methodology is based on a combination of ore grade, balance sheet, ounces below ground, jurisdiction, business model, geology and management.
Keep in mind that when Silver breaks more free from decade in the making long resistance (as it is beginning to and as the commodity bull run gets underway ) these stocks will explode to the upside
Remember, the wider the space (consolidation) the higher in space
Also recall that even if a stock doubles prior to this bull run (during these distinctive eras) miners can pop 5, 10, 15, 20 X (and higher)
Look at the very last chart, the bull run hasn’t kicked off yet.
