The world order: Do people really matter?

The sad fact may be that people are NOT really in control. That may already have been the case for some time now.

People can be persuaded into compliance by stirring or playing up threats (Note 1). They can be cowed into trading freedom / liberty for security.

Much happens with the people sedated (or overwhelmed) into a state of obliviousness (or incomprehension).

The world started to run on fiat money since the gold standard was dropped, thereby effectively detaching wealth creation from real production: the ultimate power is not with the prolific producer but the one who can run the printing press profusely AND make the world accept his paper money. Hence, the need to maintain - at all costs - total military dominance over the entire globe, including space. (Note 2)

The world has been pressed into accepting the new order of "knowledge apartheid" where entire nations can be excluded from types of knowledge and/or their use. The dissenting ones will face the collective wrath of the coalition of the (un)willing: a repeat of the days of slavery when the slavemaster knew that he could rely on his 'loyal' slaves to subdue the errant ones!

The world economy does not run on oil alone, but on wars as well, a compulsion of the military-industrial-academia complex. There shall be a permanent state of war for perpetual peace!

Democracy and freedom shall there be for all people around the world, provided that these people know how to elect governments / representatives acceptable to the true masters of the world.

There is much that the people have already accepted, out of lack of awareness, lack of will or means, or plain indifference.

'There Is No War on Terror', Seattle Weekly, 18 Feb 2006 - interview with Noam Chomsky, MIT Professor and one of the world's greatest living public intellectuals

..... Geov Parrish: How will the U.S. deal with China as a superpower?
Noam Chomsky: What's the problem with China?
Geov Parrish: Well, competing for resources, for example.
Noam Chomsky: Well, if you believe in markets, the way we're supposed to, compete for resources through the market. So what's the problem? The problem is that the United States doesn't like the way it's coming out. Well, too bad. Who has ever liked the way it's coming out when you're not winning? China isn't any kind of threat. We can make it a threat. If you increase the military threats against China, then they will respond. And they're already doing it. They'll respond by building up their military forces, their offensive military capacity, and that's a threat. So, yeah, we can force them to become a threat. ......

'The End of Dollar Hegemony' - speech by Hon. Ron Paul of Texas before the U.S. House of Representatives, 15 Feb 2006

..... Gold no longer is the currency of the realm; paper is. The truth now is: “He who prints the money makes the rules” – at least for the time being. Although gold is not used, the goals are the same: compel foreign countries to produce and subsidize the country with military superiority and control over the monetary printing presses.

Since printing paper money is nothing short of counterfeiting, the issuer of the international currency must always be the country with the military might to guarantee control over the system. This magnificent scheme seems the perfect system for obtaining perpetual wealth for the country that issues the de facto world currency.....
