Bravo stirling, glad to see more people are connecting dots.

People just have to look around them and realize it will all crash and they will not afford a thing, therefor... they will rent... and be happy..

Oh and that database they were allowed to do for safety.. that can be rebranded as a social credit system... it's already on our phons.. help green energy, be a good neighbour and hey, who doesn't like snitching on neighbours these days!!

Honestly, I don't even blame or pity people that cannot see this - it's not their fault, Stockholm syndrome.

Oh I see, our overlords are good people who only want what's good for us.

Well, I certainly look forward to Wisbech, 'owning nothing and being happy'. WE won't have any cause to complain as its for his best.

Yeah, I mean elites working together has never turned out badly for the common plebs has it.

I guess the growth of billionaires and decrease in relative living standards since the 70s has just been kind of incidental.

It's either utter malice or utter naivety.

Personally I do not give my consent.

As Mark Twain said 'It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.'.....but personally I think its malice in that he's willing to cover for people who want to control what people can do in their lives and how they can express themselves....he would only have a problem with it in societies that weren't neo liberal.

The elites aren't interested in what's best for the common person, their biggest motivation is how best to rig the system to ensure the best system for them.....it's the same as it's ever been with the only difference being that technology now makes much more possible.

Here is Russell Brand on the WEF only yesterday.

People who benefit from the system will always seek to defend it.

It's rare for those within the system to rock the boat as it were....it does happen but as the Japanese saying goes, 'the stake that sticks out, gets hammered down'.....So most keep their heads down.

However, the moves towards corporations owning more property and social credit systems....which Blair calls, 'inevitable' are only invisible to those who don't care to look.

I view them as intrinsically anti western and that's something that elements of both left and right can agree on.......globalist bodies like the WEF and others must not be allowed an unelected toe hold on a nation's policies.

Ok, defend this then.

Covid - regardless of what it may or may not be, the response to covid via the western world has dramatically increased the debt. Billions - billions in debt. Fact. Hard to revoker from this.

Small businesses have been negatively impacted - many gone, many just about able to make it work. That then hinders economy - fact.

Also the mental toll from losing work, being unemployed, job opportunities lost - that's insane. Fact.
Schools, two lost years, both mentally, socially, economically - fact.

To name just a few, the above has had huge impacts on society which is hard to recover from.

Ok, so we have a greater pool now of those indebted to the government - they need work, they need loans, they assistance, mortgages gone, marriages gone, kids lost to gangs, on the streets, mentally unfit...

Reliance on the state.

Middle class has shrunk, working lower classes, greatly expanded.

All true, but so what? It wasn't planned to be like that. Covid was an unexpected crisis for which there was no prepared response. Faced with unknown consequences, and the possibility of massive loss of life and the collapse of the health service, we reacted. As we learned, we adjusted. We developed vaccines and we controlled. We averted a disaster, but have suffered consequences, which will take time to recover from. Decisions were made, when information was scant. In such circumstances, caution will always rule. Smart-arses disagree of course, but they weren't taking the decisions.

So, fuel, energy prices, these are going to hurt even more.

Yes they are, especially after Putin's actions. It's going to be very tough, but necessary.

Electric cars - as if the families/citizens aren't struggling enough - they now need to get electric cars - as they phase in after 2030 (interesting date).

Weaning us off fossil fuels is essential if we will hand our planet onto future generations in a way they can live in it. Either you care enough to do something about that, or you don't. I do.

All those families driving bangers - what they going to do?

Exactly what those people who used to ride horses had to do. Gradually change.

Allt hese house appliances that breaks after 10 years, how do they then afford newer ones - well, like now, credit, finance..

There will be schemes to help and nothing will change over-night. My own house was built last year, and is heated by gas. It is much more thermally insulated than my previous one, so although bigger, costs less to run.

It's not hard to see that over the next 5 years we will see a huge shift In society where more people will rent their homes, with gov assistance, many people will be on welfare or assistance

Food banks more prevalent and families adapting.

TV's, appliances, furniture - loans, credit, assistance.

People will rent everything, knowing they are assisted by the government - they will be relieved

Sounds a lot like

You will own nothing and be happy....

These are not new problems. Whether, or when, it will change is a big question, but Thatcher's dream of a home-owning captive electorate seems gone. Societies can function on a rented home basis. Germany does, and that's OK. Getting people off welfare and into work has been a thorn in the side of governments all my life.

Ok, moving on... how do you implant a social credit system when many will naturally oppose - you do it in a round about way.

Quick, we need a database of every citizen - their name, address, details and then we can confirm if they have had a jab.

We rolled it out - it works - people are using it too. Brilliant. We all know who is safe, where they are and who they are - those unvaccinated or those who never used the passport, that's ok, their details are still there they just haven't activated it.

So, now covid is over - we no longer need to use it, cool... however, it's there... ready to go at the flick of a switch.

Ok, economy crashed, let's reboot the banking system via the government - you are all able to claim a basic universal income, just repurpose the passports - great!!

now everyone collects to a degree and therefor doesn't mind it.

Ok, here's an incentive... don't drive your car on Sundays, for the environment, you get extra credit - ohhh cool... voluntary weekend lockdowns.

Ok, you be a good guy online, don't call Lampard a Mong and you get extra credit.

This is happening in china, this is happening all around us it's not bloody hard to see.

That's just cynicism. And untrue. Unless you really believe in "big brother". I don't. We aren't China. We have a Parliament that we vote into office. Try anything like that, and they would soon be thrown out.

Now, is this a good thing - it can be if the people running it are pure of heart with good intentions.... which, politicians all are right?

Our politicians are as good as we want them to be. We choose them. Don't like them? Stand yourself.

Oh and the jabs still on trial until next year.... that no longer do what they were advertised to do... they know exactly what they do and if one day something was to arise it will be 'it was you choice'.

The jabs do exactly what they were expected to do, and are no more "on trial" than you are. It's simply the licencing system in practice that exercises reviews and extreme caution. That the variants have meant increased transmission than hoped for isn't surprising but the vaccines continue to suppress severe disease.

Again, the WEF have a goal... ideally it could be utopia... in theory it sounds amazing.... all looked after, all fed... all given work... if those using it have the best intentions...

But when have we ever trusted politicians and CEO's living in futuristic mountain side bunkers lol...

Again - this could all be nonsense... if so, carry on renting your flat, financing your cars, putting appliances on visa, getting warnings on social media for saying the wrong thing, as government spending increases, jobs get less and ww3 looks like it will reset the world... it's just a coincidence right?
