The ruling elite of course. Wouldn't be the first or last, the Habsburgs come to mind. Hell, their power ended 80 years ago but I have a hunch they are still a power behind the scenes.

Hmm,

Just love when people dismiss organizations like the Bilderberg Group. These people are very powerful men! They include the elite of the elite and if you don't think they have a hand in the politics of America, you are sorely mistaken.

For instance: The most influential bankers, economists, politicians, and government officials are included in these meetings that take place yearly under rigid secrecy. The security provided is by CIA, MI5, and military specialists. The conference provides a private, informal environment in which those who influence national policies and international affairs can discuss the future events which are affected by their decisions.

Again, those that control the power structure (money), control those (politicians) that implement policy in this country!! Educate yourself and look it up for yourself!

it has nothing to do with how much money they have, it is about money supply and who controls it! US money supply is controlled by the federal reserve. as the dollar is the world reserve currency, the fed therefore controls world money supply. in doing so they control the price and flow of goods and services. they also control the imf and worldbank and therefore control the world debt too!

you might not think that you're controlled but if you have a mortgage, auto debt, cc debt etc time for you to ask yourself who you're really working for!

This something I looked into 30 years ago. I do believe they and others now pull the strings on the "New Global Order."

Precisely!!!

Most people in this country want to bury their head in the sand while men that control the Fed Res. bleed us dry! Why did the Fed recently just buy up 1 trillion+ of our treasury securities??? Why is the Fed a private bank that has never been audited? Why do "American citizens" allow them to print "our" money and then charge us interest to use "our" money????

To all, please educate yourself on this subject. BTW, if you didn't already know, we are headed for a "BIG" depression. If you follow the market and not politicians you'll figure it out!! Better prepare....

As far as we the peons go----will we ever really know? After all, all we know is because of what's out there in the media; but then again, if the so called elite control of all that, then how do we know what is it that they control and what is it they don't?

What I accept though, is that we are all manipulated by those who have the power to do so. Will we ever know who these people are? I doubt so; but it would be very dumb to assume that the people in washington make the final decisions. If anything, they are being manipulated like we are; they just happened to have been chosen to carry on the fraud.

Maybe the dragon in front of us (the government) is controlled by an even bigger unseen enemy, or maybe it isn't - we can't know for certain yet. We must slay the enemy in front of us first, and slay other evils if and when they become known to us.

Interesting,

You can start by looking into the Bilderberg Group and those (stock holders) that control the Federal Reserve. As "Rob" pointed out, it's about the money supply! Take a moment and just Google (video) the above points for yourself....
