The criticism against the West, in short

  • The liberal world order (US-led globalization, World Economic Forum, woke culture), which includes reducing production of food and starving people “to save the planet” (e.g. Sri Lanka, Holland, Canada).
  • Stealing from the poor countries, instead of helping those countries to increase the living standards
  • Outsourcing too much work to Asia which inflates the trade deficit and leaves people without jobs
  • Legalizing tax fraud (tax havens) and corruption (lobby).
  • Providing a safe haven to the biggest criminals in the world (e.g. Rifaat al-Assad)
  • Providing a safe haven to all the drug lords, organized crime leaders and corrupt politicians from all over the world who save their money in the Western banks
  • Supporting dreadful dictators in the Middle East
  • Helping the biggest organized crime leader in the world (Bill Clinton’s presidential pardon for Marc Rich)
  • Dragging the populations of the poor countries in bigger and bigger misery using IMF and WB. The corrupt politicians in those countries are getting money in return for nuking their own people at the request of the bankers and of the “finance experts”.
  • Allowing speculation and anti-competitive practices on the market with housing, education and sanitation until they get out of reach for the workers. Today, the real estate owners are encouraged to refuse to rent vital space needed for urbanization in order to artificially increase the price They get a license from the public for owning that space, and therefore license should not be used against the public interest. The speculation is a completely anti-capitalistic practice since it’s the opposite of competition.
  • Abusing the immigrant workers
  • Mass immigration
  • Increasing the public debt at an accelerated rate. Then the super-rich will drag the population in bigger and bigger misery, to pay that debt.
  • Supporting Saddam when he was committing genocide against the Kurdish people
  • Supporting a large numbers of mass killings all over the world: Indonesia, East Timor, Guatemala, Iraq, 
  • Creating artificial conflicts, those conflicts created in order increase the military expenses in order to drain the taxpayer money and to prevent their use for public health, education and housing (for example the artificial conflict with Russia)

Any real political party should plan to fix those problems.

More criticism to the Western world:

– Developing insane public infrastructure – the public debt is increasing in no small part because the administration invests in overpriced and inefficient public infrastructure. “Unfortunately “modernist” planners in the 1950s-1960s totally screwed over zoning in the USA making it massively, stupidly car-centric – here’s a good video explaining it – Andres Duany New Urbanism Lecture”

– The corruption is spiraling out of control – the public health is too expensive because corrupt administration officers are siphoning the tax payer money. The speculation exists because the administration is not doing anything against it.

– Supporting and financing the current impunity of the “scientific” community of the nutritionists who are doing their best to confuse the public, making bigger and bigger sales for the food processing and pharmaceutical industries, at the cost of the catastrophic health situation of the American public.

That’s why the leftists support outsourcing of the jobs into China? That’s why they refuse to stop legalizing tax fraud and lobbying? That’s why they provide a safe heaven to the mass murderers, drug lords, organized crime leaders and corrupt politicians from all over the world? That’s why they allow the speculation in the housing, education and health care sectors, driving them out of reach for the workers? That’s why they want to bring in tens of millions of immigrants who won’t be able to find jobs? That’s why they want to increase the taxes for the workers in order to support those immigrants? That’s why they support the artificial conflict with Russia and the increase of military spending? That’s why they support the increase of the public debt and dragging the workers in deeper misery in order to pay that public debt? That’s why they are happy to give the 4 trillion Quantitative Easing money to the same criminal bankers who looted the money of the depositors before the Economic Crisis v.2008 ?

.. because they are such decent people?

Mike Prysner White House revolutionary speech

Mike Prysner White House revolutionary speech

We’re here to say to all those serving in the army and the Marines and the Air Force and the Navy that you have the absolute right to refuse to take part in these criminal wars.
And that’s a right that all of you should exercise.
You have no reason to go put your life on the line or kill and die for profit!
We’ve been to Iraq, we’ve been to Afghanistan.
And we know what these wars are really about.
And we join the military for many reasons: because we need a college education, because we need a job, because we need health care.
And then we join the military and they tell us that our enemies are poor people in caves in Afghanistan or poor people in deserts of Iraq.
But we’ve been to those countries and we know that our enemies are not other poor people abroad.
It’s the people that laid us off from our jobs, that denied us health care, that make it impossible to get an education. Our enemies are not in the poorest countries on the planet, but right here in the richest one!
The occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan alone are costing over $700 million every single day.
This is a crime.
Every single day while so many of us are hurting.
But I think all of us here and the vast majority of people in this country would agree that we can spend $700 million a day better than bombing people that we have no reason to bomb.
We could spend $700 million a day rebuilding those countries we’ve destroyed.
We could spend $700 million a day caring for the veterans we get home when they get home.
And we could spend $700 million a day giving every single person health care, a college education, a job and a livelihood and a home.
That’s what we need to be spending our money on.
But this government is not going to do that.
They’re not going to use the money in that way.
They’re not going to end the wars and they’re not going to do it because it’s not our government.
It’s their government. It’s a government of the rich. It’s a government of Wall Street, of the oil giants, of the defense contractors.
It’s their government and the only language that they understand is shutting down business as usual and that’s what we’re doing here today and we’re going to continue to do until these wars are over.
It’s crystal clear now that these wars are going to continue and expand and go into other countries.
That is a trend.
That is what we know that there is a perpetual war and it’s only going to stop if the people stand up and stop it.
And that’s what we’re going to do sisters and brothers.
A lot of people ask me: “What do we do?”
Because we all know things are bad.
We all see the atrocities on TV.
We read about it.
We experience it.
People always ask “What do I do?”.
Because we always want to know what to do.
Do we vote?
Do we support a politician?
Do we support an organization?
What do we do?
Well I’ll tell you what we do.
It’s simple.
We fight.
We fight.. and we fight.. and we fight.
And we shut down our workplaces.
We shut down our schools.
We shut down the streets.
We shut down business as usual and we fight until we force the people in there to do what the people out here want.
Because that’s how we’re gonna get it right.
And we’re going to fight until there’s not one more bomb dropped, not one more bullet fired, not one more soldier coming home in a wheelchair, not one more family slaughtered, not one more day of US imperialism.
So let’s fight to make that happen.
We can do it today and in the days ahead.
We have to fight to end these wars and create a better world, sisters and brothers.

Bad future?

Nasa-funded study: industrial civilisation headed for ‘irreversible collapse’?, 14 March 2014, Nafeez Ahmed, The Guardian

Modelling a range of different scenarios, Motesharrei and his colleagues conclude that under conditions “closely reflecting the reality of the world today… we find that collapse is difficult to avoid.” In the first of these scenarios, civilisation:

“…. appears to be on a sustainable path for quite a long time, but even using an optimal depletion rate and starting with a very small number of Elites, the Elites eventually consume too much, resulting in a famine among Commoners that eventually causes the collapse of society. It is important to note that this Type-L collapse is due to an inequality-induced famine that causes a loss of workers, rather than a collapse of Nature.”

The two key solutions are to reduce economic inequality so as to ensure fairer distribution of resources, and to dramatically reduce resource consumption by relying on less intensive renewable resources and reducing population growth:

Africa

When You Kill Ten Million Africans You Aren’t Called ‘Hitler’, 1 June 2015, Trueactivist.com

King Leopold II of Belgium – He “owned” the Congo during his reign as the constitutional monarch of Belgium. After several failed colonial attempts in Asia and Africa, he settled on the Congo. He “bought” it and enslaved its people, turning the entire country into his own personal slave plantation. He disguised his business transactions as “philanthropic” and “scientific” efforts under the banner of the International African Society. He used their enslaved labor to extract Congolese resources and services. His reign was enforced through work camps, body mutilations, executions, torture, and his private army.

The refugee who took on the British government, 12 January 2016, Ben Rawlence, The Guardian

Ehiopia – A report by the Oakland Institute into alleged cover-ups of human rights abuses noted that DfID and USAid are, “wilful accomplices and supporters of a development strategy that will have irreversible devastating impacts on the environment and natural resources and will destroy the livelihoods of hundreds of thousands of indigenous people.”

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Department_for_International_Development#Ethiopia – In February 2015, DfID has ended its financial support for a controversial development project alleged to have helped the Ethiopian government fund a brutal resettlement programme. Four million people were forced off their land by security forces while their homes and farms were sold to foreign investors.

The lies in the Western culture

There are many lies that float around in the Western culture, in the form of accepted mentalities. The super-rich people are the origin of those many lies, and they found efficient ways to make the general public believe in those lies.

The two main ways to propagate those lies are:

– the media

– the corporate culture

The way the media works is pretty clear. But it’s very interesting to take a look at the corporate culture.

The people at the top in the corporate management are spreading lies by simply telling them to the people who work with them. Those people will tell those lies to those below them in the corporate hierarchy, who will repeat them themselves. This way, the lies propagate from the top to the bottom of the corporation, from the top executive to the last employee.

To give a simple example of such lies, this statement is a good one: “The corruption is not bad, because the money return in the economy”

Then the workers go home and repeat those lies, false and absurd statements to their children and family. This way the whole society is filled with trash.

The worst part of it is the fact that the people believe that such utterly absurd statements are very clever, and they think that they are intelligent by simply believing in such crap. The problem is that the people think that they are more intelligent and special simply because they believe in unbelievable stupid things. The more they become idiotic, the more the people think they are superior, special and important.

This lies-spreading mechanism works very well because the top executives of the corporations are well connected. The most important of them are part of the Bilderberg Group. The others are part of other groups who form the base of the pyramid where the Bilderberg Group sits at the top.

The top executives of the largest corporations in the world are invited to be members of the Bilderberg Grup. They feel like they are special, they are “chosen”, they feel like they are on the top of the world. Other corporate executives, who are not in this group, are hoping and dreaming that they will be part of it one day. Even if they are not getting there, they are very enthusiastic to be part of this “construction”. They are part of the huge ecosystem around the Bilderberg Group. It’s the group that decides where the politics is heading to, how the taxpayer money will be spent, what kind of new corporations and innovations will be created, how to invest in science, technology and research.

They are indeed capable to create a lot of things and to deliver. They are capable to move the world and to push it forward, and they are doing it many times. They created the computers and the internet, because they were the ones who decided to invest enormous amounts of money into it. However, they are also the ones who keep entire continents in poverty by fueling the corruption in the poor countries. They are the ones supporting mass murders (Indonesia, East Timor, Guatemala etc) and wars.

Unfortunately, this Bilderberg Group is very dangerous, because their ultimate goal is to ecologise the planet and to leave only 500 million of people on it – check the Georgia Guidestones. And it works by making the people believe that, the more brainwashed and idiotic they become, the more special, important and superior they are. And there is nothing more dangerous than stupid people who think themselves intelligent.

Who created and who sits at the top of the Bilderberg Group? The answer is only one – the Rothschild family. The rest of the billionaires (like George Soros for example) are mostly puppets.

Now let’s take a look at the lies the corporation culture is spreading. Some of those lies are surfacing on the media. Others remain in the popular culture and it’s only transmitted by word of mouth.

– “Corruption is good because the money return in the economy.” – an extremely idiotic claim, since the stolen money go to fiscal paradises, to hidden accounts in the banks of Switzerland, Luxembourg, Liechtenstein, etc. and never return into the economy of the country.

– “There is no such thing as a free meal.” – probably those people who repeat it never heard of welfare. Or subventions. Or about bailouts – you know, when the government is taking the money from the poor in order to give it to the rich – that’s a big, huge and free meal for the rich.

– “Without poverty you have no economy” – this is probably one of the most idiotic claims ever. You can take a look at the best and less corrupt countries in the world to see that, in fact, the economy works much better when there are are no poor. And even the economy is a fuzzy term here, because it’s the economy of the rich people that works. The poor people have a very bad economy.

– “Avoid paying taxes, don’t evade paying taxes” – I’ve heard this phrase in the media (CNN – in their clownish “Quest means business” program). In reality is the same thing – a mindset of a thief.

– “It’s ok to exploit the people in the poor countries because we create jobs” – the poor countries can create jobs by simply making land reforms and giving land to the poor, as Taiwan did in 1950. Or the Western countries can buy land in the poor countries and rent it for free to the poor people in those countries.

– “If you work hard you will make it” – In reality, the people who work very hard are actually being worked to death.

– “the greed and the desire to accumulate wealth is the engine of growth and of the economy” – while in fact, the vast amount of private investors are actually happy to make just a decent living from their business. The desire to accumulate wealth was never the engine of the economy – most of the people only want to have a comfortable and decent life. The whole idea that capitalism has to be based on greed is simply idiotic and it contradicts this basic reality fact.

– “Speculation is good because it creates jobs” – while in reality the biggest selling point of the people who promote capitalism is that the system will bring you the best prices. A total contradiction.

When the politicians are marketing capitalism, their strongest selling point is that capitalism promotes innovation, competition, better wages and best quality and lowest prices for the consumer goods. There are a number of contradictions here:

– If you deliver best prices for your goods, then you reduce your incomes, and that conflicts with the idea that the desire for bigger profits is the engine of the economy. How can you increase your profits when you have to reduce your profits in order to deliver best prices for your goods?

– When they get into power, they refuse to enforce competition and they claim it’s ok for the goods to be overpriced, “because it’s capitalism!”

All those lies were created in order to convince the people to live like bloodsuckers and to make them believe that the moral values have absolutely no importance at all. The economic crisis started with a moral crisis. Today there are no moral values anymore. Now the individual and their wealth are the measure of everything. More and more people became obsessed to have more and more and to achieve that by using any means.

All that for a clear purpose – it’s easier to stay in power when the people are confused and individualistic. It’s the same old principle: “Divide and rule”.

As long the society is divided by individualism and by social classes of rich and poor, the super-rich people can do whatever they want.

Western Economy

The incoming economic crisis:

Keeping the stolen property:

In the Western systems, it is too easy for the predators / thieves to keep their property that they made by theft or by hurting others. The system makes it easy for them to just transfer their wealth on some other people’s names, and to save it from confiscation. A good example might be William Goad, the biggest pedophile in the UK and a millionaire, who just transferred his money to his friends, and this way he avoided paying compensations to his victims. Whenever one of his victims asks for compensations, the government will take the money from the taxpayers instead, in order to pay the compensations. In other words, once again, the poor have to pay for the fantasies of the rich and for the damage they are producing – because it’s the poor people paying taxes, not the rich (who save their money in tax havens). That means there will be less money for schools, hospitals, roads, etc.

An extremely unjust system.

The same thing happens with all the major banking and corporation fraud – the government rarely gets any of the stolen money back.

Another example is The Co-operative Bank scandal – Paul Flowers.

Instead, the system should protect the private property of the poor people and to make sure the poor people can own or at least to have access to most basic goods and services. But of course, once again, the system is concerned about protecting the stolen property, not the minimum property that every human being deserves.

The lives and lifestyles of the people improved greatly under capitalism from the mid 1800s to about 1910 when the capitalist system produced monopolists, -the “robber barons” and adopted a ruthless intolerance of workers.  A private police force, the Pinkertons for example, was hired by capitalists to force workers to labor and not complain under threat of death.  Many were shot and killed.  After FDR and his New Deal, and when the Cold War developed, the “marketing”  was managed by the development of a large, robust propaganda machine.

IMF, WMF works:

Why to lend money to a country not capable to pay it’s interests?

How can you give “haircuts” to those huge debts of the poor countries? Answer: the money returned already in the Western banks, where the corrupt officials from the poor countries save their money.

Why the Western system is a criminal system and not a capitalist system:

Fake capitalism, Anti-capitalism

– corporate welfare – giving bailouts and subventions to the rich

– legalizing tax fraud (tax havens)

– encouraging speculation and overpricing the basic services like private housing, education and health care

– giving money to criminal bankers (4 trillion $US in Quantitative Easing)

– nuke the workers by sending the jobs in China and East Asia

– the Western countries are not capable to pay their debts and they are only capable to increase their debts   –   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Federal_Debt_Held_by_the_Public_1790-2013.png

– offering a safe heaven to the biggest criminal in the world (Rifaat al-Assad)

– offering a safe heaven to all the drug lords, corrupt politicians and organized crime leaders from the third world countries

– using IMF and WB to keep billions of people in misery. They give loans to the poor countries, the politicians of those countries are pocketing all the money, and then they send it back in the West because they keep their stolen money in the Western Banks. In return for the favor, they comply with the IMF’s requests to reduce the incomes of the poor. Then the IMF is using the same money again, to drag the countries in bigger and bigger poverty.

Western Economic Imperialism

QUESTION: In a text of yours you say that the world is ruled by a “virtual senate”. Can you tell me something more about this?

NOAM CHOMSKY: The term is not mine. I am borrowing it from the professional literature on international economics. The “virtual senate” consists of investors and lenders. They can effectively decide social and economic policy by capital flight, attacks on currency that undermine the economy, and other means that have been provided by the neoliberal framework of the past thirty years.

More in this link: chomsky.info/2003____/

Before 1970, 90% of the foreign exchange was trade of goods and investments.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_exchange_market#Hedge_funds_as_speculators

About 70% to 90% of the foreign exchange transactions conducted are speculative. This means the person or institution that bought or sold the currency has no plan to actually take delivery of the currency in the end; rather, they were solely speculating on the movement of that particular currency. Since 1996, hedge funds have gained a reputation for aggressive currency speculation. They control billions of dollars of equity and may borrow billions more, and thus may overwhelm intervention by central banks to support almost any currency, if the economic fundamentals are in the hedge funds’ favor.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF), World Bank (WB), Swiss banks, Western banks in general are nothing else than tools used to keep billions of people in poverty.

The corrupt politicians in the poor countries get money from the IMF and WB in loans but in the name of their countries, then they are stealing all the money, and then the poor people will have to pay the debts because those are national debts. The administration of IMF and WB are very well aware of the situation, yet they keep giving those money, because what they are looking for is to keep those populations in poverty. All the money return to the West, because the corrupt politicians in the poor countries are saving their money in the Western banks.

In return for the “help”, the IMF and WB is asking the corrupt politicians to increase the poverty in their countries, by reducing the incomes of the poor people.

What the West is doing is to keep billions of people in power.
