Controligarchs - Exposing the Billionaire Class, their Secret Deals, and the

Informationen zum Autor Seamus Bruner; foreword by Peter Schweizer Klappentext "Imagine a world in which you own nothing and rent everything. Most of the protein in your diet comes from bugs, while lab-grown meats are a rare, expensive delicacy. You are not allowed to have more than one child, and your financial and medical data are instantly transferred to a centralized government database via a subdermal microchip. Controligarchs warns that this will be our existence if the supranational elites of the World Economic Forum get their way. Bruner, the Director of Research at the Government Accountability Institute led by famed investigator Peter Schweizer, presents a mountain of original research and reveals shocking new evidence that shows their sinister agenda will soon become reality. For example, the Controligarchs are: Funding eugenics research that will allow them to pre-determine their children's traits, creating a new caste system in which the ultrawealthy are able to hack their own biology-augmenting their intelligence with AI-to become superhuman or, they hope, immortal; Bagging billions of dollars in taxpayer-funded crony stimulus and other forms of inflation-inducing corporate welfare that has allowed this tiny elite faction to double their net worth-adding trillions of dollars to their collective holdings-while the middle and lower classes work harder to earn less; Planning for "the next pandemic," which means reinstating their lockdowns, implementing new waves of small business closures, and, ultimately, consolidating the ownership-of everything-into fewer and fewer hands. Bruner offers a gripping and groundbreaking look into the shadowy meetings and sweetheart deals behind global social-engineering efforts, proving that, despite their stated intentions, we must never cede control of our lives to billionaires. Amidst daily disasters ranging from bank collapses to disease outbreaks to food and energy crises-each caused or exacerbated by the expert class-this page-turning investigation into the global elite is a must read"-- Leseprobe 1 The Good Club Some even believe we are part of a secret [club] working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as "internationalists" and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure-one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it. -David Rockefeller, Memoirs, 2002 On a cloudy spring day in 2009, Bill Gates arrived at one of the very last private, single-family, residential mansions on the crowded island of Manhattan in New York City. Gates was joined that May afternoon by a dozen other billionaire philanthropists-David Rockefeller, George Soros, Ted Turner, Michael Bloomberg, Warren Buffett, and Oprah Winfrey, as well as the heads of Cisco, Blackstone Group, and Tiger Management, to name a few-who had gathered for a secret meeting at the Rockefeller University, on Manhattan's posh Upper East Side. They were there to save the world-or, at least, to set the agenda for the future of global health. It was a fitting setting. After all, it was there in 1901 that John D. Rockefeller Sr. established the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, which was the nation's first biomedical and research laboratory. Rockefeller modeled his facility after the prestigious Pasteur and Koch institutes in France and Germany. In doing so, he elevated the prestige of America's scientific and medicinal research to Europe's level with the establishment of the nation's first biomedical and virology research center at the Rockefeller Institute. Now, Rockefeller University was the hub of the Rockefellers' biomedical empire. Gates and a few of his closest billionaire buddies met in the university's President's House, which is nestled in the northeast corner of the university's relati...
