The Psychological Warfare Behind Economic Collapse

What is most disturbing is that the majority of the  public have no grasp whatsoever of the true solution to the problem of  corrupt or totalitarian economies: free markets.

Free markets have  not existed within the global economy on a large scale for at least the  past 100 years. The rise of central banking has eroded all vestiges of  freedom in production and trade. Crony capitalism with its focus on  corporate power and monopoly has nothing to do with free markets,  despite the arguments of rather naive socialists who blame “free  markets” for the problems of the world. If you ever hear anyone making  this claim, I suggest you remind them that corporations and their  advantages are a creation of governments.

The protections of  corporate personhood, limited liability, unfair taxation of small  business competition and legislation shielding corporations from civil  lawsuits are all generated by government. Therefore, corporations and  crony capitalism are much more a product of socialist-style systems, not free  markets. In a true free market devoid of constant government interference and  favoritism, corporations could not exist and would be obliterated over  time by the competitive environment. And without limited liability,  business moguls that violate the rule of law and harm others would be  subject to personal prosecution and jail time instead of simply paying a  fine. The cost/benefit ratio for corrupt business would disappear and  thus corrupt businesses would flounder.

At the very core of the  combination of corporate power and government protection (what some  might say is the classical definition of fascism), rest the central  banks, globalist institutions and the banking elites behind them.  Central banks are the stewards of the various plantations (nations) and  oversee the exploitation of these societies and their labor. Major  globalist constructs like the IMF or the Bank for International  Settlements are the policy makers for the national central banks. They  hand down the strategy, and the central banks implement that strategy in  concert. At the top of the pyramid sit the round table groups and the  international bankers themselves, reaping the rewards of the cycle of  theft.

As noted scholar, globalist insider and mentor to Bill Clinton, Carroll Quigley wrote in his book Tragedy And Hope:

“The  powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing  less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands  able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy  of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist  fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret  agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The  apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in  Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world’s  central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central  bank … sought to dominate its government by its ability to control  Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level  of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative  politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world.”

This  is an easy notion to understand, I think. That is to say, the idea of  oligarchs, the 1% if you will, controlling the other 99 percent  through economic leverage is something that most people can agree   exists, whether they identify with the political Right or the political Left. They may only have a vague notion of the facts behind this   conspiracy, but they have seen it in action in their daily lives and   they know it is real. Here is where most of them start to lose sight of the bigger picture, though…

Many see the conspiracy as  merely a product of profit motive. That is to say, they don’t see it as a  conscious and organized effort so much as unconsciously motivated  greed. This reminds me of the most famous line from the movie The Usual Suspects:

“The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was to convince the world he didn’t exist.”

All  the evidence overwhelmingly assures us that the conspiracy is fully  conscious, organized and deliberate. It is not an ugly or random byproduct of “profit motive.” This is absurd when you consider the   amount of coordination that is required or the number of think tanks and  secretive conferences that occur yearly, from the Council on Foreign   Relations, to Tavistock, to the Trilateral Commission, to the Brookings Institute, to Davos, to Bilderberg and to even weirder circles like   Bohemian Grove. These are very real centers of power that can have far   reaching influence in our daily lives.

To ignore this and reduce  it all down to a “natural” extension of greed is to stupidly rest one’s  soft spongy head in the jaws of organized evil while pretending you  can’t smell the stench of its gingivitis.

The control mechanisms  of the globalists are far more complex though than simply exploiting the  flow of money or the accumulation of debt. Numerous liberty activists that  have accepted the reality of institutionalized control of the economy  still refuse to acknowledge another very real control mechanism — the  use of economic collapse. I’m not sure why this idea is taken as  farfetched by people who are already versed in the facts behind  globalism. Their biases just won’t allow them to look at the environment  objectively and see the usefulness of collapse as a tactic to gain more  leverage and influence.

I believe the key to understanding  economics and the world at large is to embrace the truth that almost  everything that is done in the world of politics and finance is done to  manipulate public psychology toward certain ends.  That is to say, the true battlefield is the human mind; everything else is secondary.

But what ends am I referring to? To be more  specific, the masses are constantly being pressured into more  dependency, more fear, less self-sufficiency and less awareness of the grand scheme. We are encouraged to box with our own shadows, to  produce for the system but not for ourselves, to struggle for minimal  gains spent haphazardly on meaningless objectives, to fight with each  other for scraps while remaining blind to the enormous parasites  attached to our backs, to affiliate with pointless causes led by puppet  politicians and controlled opposition, to never build anything  ourselves, always waiting for some hero on a white horse to come and  save us.

In essence, we are consistently being distracted or admonished from our natural inclination to establish free markets - free markets in thought, in trade, in information, in government, etc.  The globalists are even willing to collapse entire economic systems to prevent this outcome and to keep us trapped in centralization.  This prison is a mental one, for the most part.  At any time, we could walk away from the totalitarian model and build our own free market systems.  Getting to this point psychologically, getting people to take the first steps, is the hard part, however.

Economics as the globalists implement it is not about  profit. It is sometimes about milking the population for labor or hard  assets, but this is a side benefit. What economics is really about is  molding minds; it is about changing the psychology of millions of  people. It is about erasing inborn conscience and moral compass. It is  about destroying long held societal principles and heritage. And  sometimes, it is about erasing history altogether, killing most of a  generation, and then writing a new history that is more suitable to the  globalist ideal, which is much easier when there are so few people who  remember the truth left to argue about it.

Globalists exhibit  most, if not all, the traits of narcissistic sociopaths, who sometimes  organize into cooperative groups as long as there is a promise of mutual  gain and a structure of top down dominance. Narcissistic sociopaths are  notorious for using crisis as a means to keep the people around them  off balance and serving their interests. Their ultimate goal is rarely  profit. Instead, they seek power; power over every aspect of every life  of every person around them. A modicum of power is not enough. They want  total control, and they will use any means to get it, including  engineering threats and disasters to elicit compliance or to paint  themselves as a necessary hero or “protector.”

A sociopath is not  content to control people through fear or violence alone. They want  their victims to love them; to view them as saviors instead of tyrants.

To  reiterate, the goal of economic subversion is to break down the human  mind and change it into something else; something less human or, at the  very least, something less rebellious. One can only control people  through debt and false rewards for so long before they start to recoil  and revolt. Economic collapse, on the other hand, can change people  fundamentally through persistent terror and through tragedy. Through  trauma, the globalists hope to make men into monsters or robots.

The  current system was never built to last. Our economy is designed to  fail, yet few people seem to question why that is? They tell themselves  that this is because greed has led the money elite to self-sabotage, but  this is a fantasy. It is not just that the system is designed to fail,  but that it is designed to fail according to an organized timetable.

The globalist magazine The Economist announced  in 1988 the coming of a one-world currency system, one that would be   launched in 2018 and that would require the decline of the U.S. economy and the dollar to open the door to the reset. It is no coincidence that  we are now witnessing the beginning of a major financial crash in the last quarter of 2018. This crash was engineered starting in 2008 by   central banks first through the inflation of a historic bubble   encompassing almost all asset classes using stimulus measures and near   zero interest rates, and it is being imploded today by the same central banks using tightening measures into economic weakness.

It is also  no coincidence that the globalists have announced in 2018 that their  intention is to adapt to a digital monetary system using blockchain  technology and cryptocurrency. That is to say, the one world currency  system predicted in The Economist is already here. They are only waiting for a crisis large enough to pressure society to accept total global centralization as a solution.

Forcing  the public to embrace worldwide centralization would require several  measures. First, the current system, which as stated is designed to  fail, would have to be allowed to crash. Second, the crash would have to  be blamed on someone other than the globalists and their ideology of  globalism. Third, philosophical opponents of globalism (i.e.,  conservatives, nationalists and decentralization activists) would have  to be demonized or eliminated so that the globalists can build their new  world order without opposition. Fourth, the population would need to be  sufficiently traumatized to the point of psychological submission and  desperation, so that when the new system is introduced, they will be  grateful for it, thus preventing future rebellion by making the public a  willing cooperator in their own enslavement.

The success of such a  plan is not guaranteed. In fact, I believe the globalists will  ultimately fail in their endeavor as I have outlined in past articles. This does not mean though that they aren’t going to try. Liberty   activists must accept the fact that the plan of the globalists involves the deliberate destruction of our current economy. Those who refuse will  find themselves bewildered by the outcome of future financial   developments, instead of being prepared. They will find themselves easily  subdued, instead of ready to rebel. And they will wonder after it’s all  over why they didn’t see it coming when the end game was so obvious.
