"Unmasking the
Outlaws," laid out the transnational corporate vision for how the
multinationals structured their current attempt to takeover the modern world.
This article will deal with some of the follies in their obscene plans.
It’s one thing to dream
about having everything your own way, virtually against all odds: It’s quite
another, when you’re a corporation, to become completely immersed in creating
the vehicle necessary to be able to reach your goal. But what these corporations
seek to do, in the end, will make no literal sense at all. One has to wonder how
all this money and all this planning could have been devoted to creating so much
havoc, apparently without even having thought through the results of most of
their schemes?
The plan in part, was to
buy up the specialized components of DNA, and to own or control every crucial
aspect of that which gives life to every being. It’s easy to see how that
could be maniacally profitable, through drugs, medicine, insurance, and a whole
long list that could flow from this specialized knowledge. But in their zeal to
control the manufacture of new drugs, the corporations have extended their
patent rights to include much of the living (and pre-existing) world. Plants,
trees, roots, virtually anything that they can identify as useful components
that might become keys for their breakthrough medicines are to be denied any and
all other uses, because they now hold the patent rights, to some of nature’s
oldest plants.
Never mind that patent
rights are supposed to only involve things that have been ‘created’ or at
least added to, by human endeavor – the point here is that anything can now
become the property of some giant legal-fiction, that is recognized as a
corporation. And in case after case the native peoples who have used these
elements of nature for millennia, are now denied the use of them, because of a
bunch of thieves, in some very distant city, in a vast and uncaring world.
Since the above became
"legally possible" the Corporations decided to take this further. Why
stop with by-products when you can actually get to the place where you can own
it all. On this theory the privatization plan was begun, and this was a real
gem.
Reagan and his crew were
in charge of kicking off this heist. It works like this. A "group" of
potential investors look at a publicly owned service or property, and they do a
study. The study finds that a private company could more efficiently manage the
service or the park or the program. So the company comes up with eight to ten
percent of what the entity is worth, forms a company to manage the new business,
and in the bargain takes 100% of the public’s investment in the original
venture. The company is created and then begins to let bids; to skim profits;
and to generally run amuck for huge profits, with little or no oversight, from
either the complacent government or the public. This has happened to public
transportation, to the libraries, to all kinds of government services, and is
now being proposed for National Parks, and some government agencies that deal
with the welfare of the general population.
The above schemes were
designed to make huge profits for a very small investment, of course part of the
cost was the graft paid to politicians and political parties, but that’s just
part of cost. However, here is where the corporate-profit-express begins to
leave the tracks and fall into the twilight zone. It begins with cost-cutting
measures that the new owners of so many businesses, both large and small,
frequently resort to, just to enhance the bottom line. This resource is used to
cut costs by firing people or sending jobs offshore—either way the company
saves a ton of money, but there’s the human carnage of the jobs lost or left
behind. The PR spin about ‘retraining and new skills’ just doesn’t work
anymore.
With these equations now
becoming very clear, who will still have enough to buy what these new industries
or services may be selling? It’s one thing to slash the costs of business, but
how far can this go before there is no longer a customer base?
Who will rent the
properties, who will patronize the businesses, or be able to travel, or be
entertained in this New World Order where barely minimum wages are beginning to
rule in more and more jobs; with only lower wages to look forward to--if most
people are even to have a job at all? Couple this with the slashing or
elimination of government services for those who ‘fall between the cracks,’
and the dimensions of this New World Order begin to take on an entirely
different look.
Part of the reason for the
growing darkness of this vision of corporate utopia is that nothing is being
done about infrastructure – anywhere. In addition to the commercial chaos the
personal infrastructure of people, families, employees, and friends is also
being trashed. The roads, the bridges, the transportation systems, all have been
left to decay because now "we are at war." The profit skimming in
construction is usually high enough to attract a lot of business, but
re-construction’s not as sexy, and besides there’s all that real estate that
we’re still tearing up each and every day in other places. In Iraq or
Afghanistan there is no civilian population to give contractors any grief. The
contracts are huge, and the bookkeeping oversight (during a war) is minimal, and
if you get caught just appeal to the politicians that you own to fix it.

The example deals with
Iraq and construction, but the same would be true in dozens of other fields.
Hospitals, where not just
the buildings, but also the staffing has been allowed to crumble under the
pressures of new government programs that favor the HMO’s and let medicine
become nothing but a bookkeeping footnote. Look around, things are breaking down
everywhere: Because nothing quite seems to really work anymore, except at the
payroll desk for the multinational corporations.
Any society that cannot
attend to the needs of its people will not be a society for long. And this
administration, in answer to its corporate managers, has seen to it that this
country will very soon come to real grief. Schools, jobs, health, the permanent
alienation of almost every sector of society from all the rest – will soon
begin to take its toll.
The excuse for everything
now is security, if you believe them; but it’s really insecurity if you want
the truth. The corporations, the fake political maneuverings, the War on Terror,
all of these are eating every dollar of what would have gone to keep this
country solvent and possibly thriving. Yet nothing has received the slightest
notice except the paranoia and the fear that these bastards have conceived to
keep the masses huddled and silent.
Given this dire state, the
corporations set their sites on more controls to enslave people further, while
locking-in new customers for the most basic building blocks of life. Everyone
must have water; it’s a basic element of survival. The corporations are mining
it now, worldwide, to try and corner the market on drinkable water. It’s was
more expensive than oil, per gallon, until the recent price hikes: and when they
finish, it will become the primary driving force in all economies—and it will
be owned by these new players from the New World Order.
The forests, the minerals,
all the other natural resources have also been targeted, though mergers and
privatization of the National Parks and lands. This has all been very carefully
thought out, except for the most awkward folly of all – which is who will have
enough to keep their profits rolling in?
The insecurity of the war
is meant to keep us silent and docile, wrapped so tightly in our flags that we
might appear to be just corpses being readied for burial. That was the
controlling factor. This was necessary because as their plan has reached this
critical stage where the thefts and rip-offs can no longer remain hidden. With
so much being left to decay and ruin, and so much else being mined for every
cent, and with nothing being done to keep us from total financial collapse
http://globalresearch.ca/ –
how else could the Masters and their political flunkies keep the global
population quiet?
It might have worked,
except that they make really lousy conquerors and they badly bungled the
invasions, and now have lost the peace entirely.
The proof of that is that
they left this little window open, between the coming elections and their next
attack. In this moment there is still time to think about how all this came to
be the plight of every one of us. Greed does funny things to the most determined
individuals, but this particular Folly of the Corporations has to be unique
among the annals of government anywhere.
Whatever answer that the
public finally comes up with for these massive crimes – ought to reflect and
equal amount of creative energy that will leave us, with some real choices for a
future, without these global monsters that we have chartered and tolerated for
far too long. That answer should be really interesting!
