It could be the crown that saves England.
Don't hold your breath waiting for Q.E. to kick the bucket. Her mother lived to be almost 102. Of the many hidebound traditions in Britain, accession to the throne only on the death of the current monarch is one of the stupidest.

In recent years, King Albert II of Belgium abdicated in favor of his son, now King Phillipe and King Juan Carlos I of Spain abdicated in favor of his son, now King Felipe VI. Abdication is a tradition in the Netherlands.

I say to the Brits, give Chuck a chance.

To be fair, countries fight with each other for power. Everyone else fights with each other because we disagree with each other, or otherwise dislike each other.


Somewhat ironically, if people didn't disagree with each other(and thus fight with each other), then there would be no need for nations to begin with, and thus there would be either a one-world government, or no government at all.

As Globalist policies allow corporations to shut down domestic factories in industrialized countries and open up those same factories in places where slave wages are the order of the day; as tariffs on imported goods are canceled, killing off businesses that try to compete with mega-corporations; as leading economies decline0„3*

The consumer base for these mega-corporations shrinks.

Globalism, the very system that is determined to elevate the power of mega-corporations, is diminishing the number of people who can consume what the corporations make.

In my opinion, Globalism is the biggest disaster

Creating money out of thin air to satisfy the avarice of banks, to pay off governments0„30…4 soaring debt, to boost corporate bottom lines is one thing. Creating money out of nothing to make six or seven billion brand new consumers is quite another thing.

For the sake of future, one has to think about the word "globalism". You don't have to like Michael Savage, you can even say the guy has little credibility, but one thing he said is absolutely true, "border, language, culture, there, you have a country." There is no doubt that the goal of globalism is to abolish country identity. So the world becomes one. The goal is to benefit mega-corporations, not YOU.
Great post.

They are also moving to erode individual liberties, especially the freedom to speak and to believe as you like, especially if those beliefs are of the Christian variety.

Also, they are working hard to erode any meaningful sense of individual identity by undermining the role of the nuclear family and even by trying to obfuscate and deny the basic differences between men and women, and the basic sense of identity that the vast majority of people on this planet get from that.

It is not just de-nationalizing, it is dehumanizing. This is where this movement is trying to take us. The final destination is not a good place at all.

Ron Paul has predicted that we are going to have a big financial crisis in the future. Currency crisis.

You are right, it is not going to be pretty.

The final destination is inevitable. They are winning, look around you, how can you possibly stop them?

Ron Paul has been preaching ruin for decades. He underestimates the ability of central banks to artificially prop-up economies, and further underestimates the ignorance and complicity of politicians and citizens-alike.


The truth is, the vast-majority of Americans are completely dependent on both the market, and the government. If a real economic-crisis came, the average American would be pleading for the government to save them. Most Americans would literally starve without the government, and the vast-majority have absolutely no savings whatsoever, and even those with savings, most aren't in hard-assets. Their money is in stocks, which would themselves become worthless pieces-of-paper.


There cannot be freedom, if men aren't, or cannot be, independent.

I hate to break it to you, but the majority of migrants into the UK over the course of the last 20 years are not Muslim. They came from Eastern Europe.

The citizens and workers do not have a chair at the table on Globalization though as is required under capitalism where all should have bargaining power.

It is Tyranny by the few - Global Corporatists

This thread should be the most viewed and replied thread at the moment. I bet maybe half or more looked at title and said "WTF is Bilderberg? oh look a thread about transsexuals".


So I imagine CNN or Fox is not there, who is there?

Little pessimistic, no? I think things have changed greatly with the Internet-people are becoming more and more aware everyday...And generally people become VERY unhappy/uncooperative when it is realized they have been lied to and decisions were being made behind closed doors to shape their futures...
We can't believe everything we read over the Internet. It too, is full of propaganda and lies. So in this day in age, who does any one have they can believe?
