What do they say about those who don't remember history? They're doomed to repeat it? Amazing how we kill of legislation that prevented us from doing the same mistakes that led the Great Depression and what has happened since. Idiots.

Idiots? depends on whom you ask.

Airframe shocktesting at it's finest perhaps. After the first depression people still cared what went on, and installed safeguards against it happening again. By the time Glass-Stegall was repealed most (not all) had forgotten. TPB that are testing the waters again, and getting further down the road than the last time toward their agenda........ whatever that may be.

There is more to it than that.

This is by design. Govt et al rakes it in from offshoring and investments.

All the market changes took place to fatten the investment funds for the gang. So-called Govt investment funds being the biggest player. Most of the laundry list most recently was under Clinton. Though we can't leave out Sarbanes-Oxley Act under Bush (nor the large manufacturing off shoring mentioned) or China permanent favored nation status. This list is just a highlight of the subject, it is not all inclusive.

Big leaps in the recent bubble blowing.

Interesting when you look at human resources and changes in the 90's along with major changes in global markets, i.e. derivatives via Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act (Also known as Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999), Commodity Modernization Act,(2000)etc... First comes the "public" internet around 1995 then the market changes then from around 2000 to fairly recently -33% manufacturing outsourcing.

Oh, gotta throw in housing bubble and mortgage changes. Seems like you need to shift the market if you are going to offshore manufacturing, right? Need to start leveraging and building those derivatives/securities etc...
Timeline of the United States housing bubble
NAFTA also (94)
North American Free Trade Agreement

This is EO relating to budgeting.(97) That clearly defines capital including "human capital".

Where Washington Should Go for Money: Havens
quote:
The real money is in the havens, but none of the lawmakers or the politicians would ever dare mention that word for fear of alienating the few bucks that are left here in the USA.
The top 20 US companies listed in Fortune 50 have set aside some $743 billion in profits in accounts located in offshore tax havens. According to Nerdwallet Taxes that would bring in about$119 billion extra for the Treasury if the money were in the US in accounts.

Yep CD.

When you look at all the actions that have taken place to date, and the actions against those that tried to put a roadblock in their plans, it becomes patently clear that it has all been deliberate.


It is all part of their Fascists Globalist New World Order, not necessarily where there is a world government, because they don't need one, but rather one where the world is controlled by Large Multinational Corporations and Banks and everyone else will be dirt poor serving them.


People would never go for a singular world government because that would entail they have a choice anyways in it. Multinational Corporations and Banks answer to No One or nation but are allowed to dictate to governments of the world via $$$ and hence control over people as well....like Obamacare for example backed by Big Insurance and Health.

The great leveling effect among all nations is in play.
