World Economic Forum Founder and Executive Chairman Klaus Schwab has proposed using the overreaction to coronavirus to launch a worldwide “Great Reset.” This Great Reset is about expanding government power and suppressing liberty worldwide.
Schwab envisions an authoritarian system where big business acts as a partner with the government. Big business would exercise its government-granted monopoly powers to maximize value for “stakeholders,” instead of shareholders. Stakeholders include the government, international organizations, the business itself, and “civil society.”
Of course, government bureaucrats and politicians, together with powerful special interests, will decide who are, and are not stakeholders, what is in stakeholders’ interest, and what steps corporations must take to maximize stakeholder value. People’s own wishes are not the priority.
The Great Reset will dramatically expand the surveillance state via real-time tracking. It will also mandate that people receive digital certificates in order to travel and even technology implanted in their bodies to monitor them.
Included in Schwab’s proposal for surveillance is his idea to use brain scans and nanotechnology to predict, and if necessary, prevent individuals’ future behavior. This means that anyone whose brain is “scanned” could have his Second Amendment and other rights violated because a government bureaucrat determines the individual is going to commit a crime. The system of tracking and monitoring could be used to silence those expressing “dangerous” political views, such as that the Great Reset violates our God-given rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
The Great Reset involves a huge expansion of the welfare state via a universal basic income program. This can help ensure compliance with the Great Reset’s authoritarian measures. It will also be very expensive. The resulting increase in government debt will not be seen as a problem by people who believe in modern monetary theory. This is the latest version of the fairy tale that deficits don’t matter as long as the Federal Reserve monetizes the debt.
The Great Reset ultimately will fail for the same reason all other attempts by the government to control the market fail. As Ludwig von Mises showed, government interference in the marketplace distorts the price system. Prices are how information about the value of goods and services related to other goods and services is conveyed to market actors. Government interference in the marketplace disturbs the signals sent by prices, leading to an oversupply of certain goods and services and an undersupply of others.
The lockdowns show the dangers of government control over the economy and our personal lives. Lockdowns have increased unemployment, caused many small businesses to close, and led to more substance abuse, domestic violence, and suicide. We are told the lockdowns are ordered because of a virus that poses no great danger to a very large percentage of the American public. Yet, instead of adopting a different approach, politicians are doubling down on the failed policies of masks and lockdowns. Meanwhile, big tech companies, which are already often acting as partners of government, silence anyone who questions the official line regarding the threat of coronavirus or the effectiveness of lockdowns, masks, and vaccines.
The disastrous response to Covid is just the latest example of how those who give up liberty for safety or health will end up unfree, unsafe, and unhealthy. Instead of a Great Reset of authoritarianism, we need a great rebirth of liberty!
*EDITOR’S NOTE: We already live on a prison planet born into a system of oppression. The ruling class and elitists now want to tighten the chains so much that we’ll never be able to escape.

Obviously the time has come for a countermeasure to DAVOS.
An annual gathering of Patriots if you will. The best and the brightest.
My vision is for an international cast of like minded individuals to gather together in an endeavor to not only stop but eradicate the likes of Klaus Schwab’s NWO think tank and I dont mean in a reactionary manner.
Like nothing the world has ever seen.
Thus far virtual location scouting has continually lead back to West Virginia for a number of reasons .
Yes I said West By Gawd Virginia for the FIRST annual.
Almost perfect but I’m open to suggestion…its early.
The toughest part of the design isnt location though…its picking keynote speakers.There are so many that would be great …assuming they would take part.(hint) Ron Paul
And Security lots of security like DAVOS….a sniper on every roof, armed guards on every corner and of course state of the art tech.
NO MEDIA NONE – KEEP EM GUESSING .
No color badges….Every badge is a White Badge or you have no business being their.
That will mean some attendees attend seminars of their choosing “virtually” but so be it.
It goes without saying this is all still in the thought process but doable ….highly doable and the time has come.
It’s not sink or swim …its us or them.
Thank you Ron Paul for continuing to analyze issues that will affect all American lives. You and your son are great Americans. INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS, the reason for the existence of the USA, are disregarded by far too many congress-critters & bureaucrats in “D.C.
The CONSTITUTION, the supreme law of the land, is disregarded by far too many cretins in positions of power.
It used to be called fascism. But most people have no idea about political philosophy so they can’t see the forest for the trees.
The Schwabian housewife’s prescription is straight off the Third Reich’s 1,000 year plan. That plan was just transferred after WWII not eliminated. They moved it to the US and then China.
Hmm, after having lightly read the article brought to mind something that happened to me recently, I had a stress test ( doctor ordered ) on a tread mill ( which I passed with flying colors, mid 70’s ), they had me on couch with a bunch of wires hooked up for a base line and after being asked a bunch of questions, the nurse did ask one last question ” have I ever thought about harming myself self in any way shape or form ?” My answer was ” I maybe dumb , but I’m not stupid ” ( the nurse giggled and said that was the best answer she has had heard in a long time ). My question is how the heck can these brain scans and inplants tell anything? Just my two cents
Trump live on utube now.

Much to my dismay, it appears the Dems. have won in Georgia. Thus, that party now fully controls the gov’t. They said no obstacle is in the way for them to push their agenda, and that they will push hard and fast.
I don’t see them promoting job creation policies, or raising the standard of living, or making it easier for small businesses to function, or helping the Main Street economy. Rather, I see the Dems. showing a single-minded emphasis for political, cultural, and social issues. I believe, in fact I know, the following items are some things you will see occur:
-universal gun registration and many other heavy-handed gun controls, if not confiscation,
-the ability for any entity to sue gun manufacturers if a gun is used in a crime (the idea is to sue manufacturers and ammo makers out of existence),
-red flag laws being applied not only against gun owners but against anyone for a whole host of cultural and social “infractions”,
-schools dramatically ramping up inculcation of students for social conditioning,
-federal take over of all state and local zoning laws to promote the construction and development of low income and section 8 housing directly in suburban areas,
-reparations to minorities (the latest figure is 14 trillion dollars)
-facilitate the ability of cities to annex adjoining municipalities so they can be taxed (due to basically every big city has a busted budget),
– phase-out of Trump tax cuts and increase of individual taxes, and additional tax increases for companies (the increase of cost of business will also be passed on to the consumer)
-vast new regulations for businesses (this will further drive up costs of doing business only to cost the consumer more, or cause businesses to once again relocate overseas,
-bailouts for liberal state and city governments,
-the drive to completely nationalize all health care,
– all but dictatorial lockdowns and travel restrictions for this “pandemic”, and mandatory vaccinations for all,
-eliminate all voter ID laws,
– censure-ship of the internet (this will be for stated bogus reasons like to combat t*rr*rism, racism, and to enhance equality)
-the introduction of the bogus Green New Deal with accompanying policies that will wildly drive up energy costs and destroy fossil fuels production including oil and natural gas
-the forgiveness of student loans (subsidized loans are never forgiven, they are merely passed on to someone else)
-30 million illegal aliens made citizens (most will become Democrats), this will also spur more illegal immigrants to come,
-resumption of lax border controls,
-free and unlimited healthcare to illegal aliens (this will surely spur more to come)
-even more special rights and privileges for LGBQ, trans, etc.,
-curtailment of 1st Amendment rights to battle inequality, “anti-Americanism”, racism, and all the other isms,
-all investigations into federal corruption dropped,
-the promotion of anti-Christian policies,
-promote abortions for those under 16 without needing parental permission,
-legal penalties for all “insensitive” speech
-pack the courts with liberals,
– forms of mandatory service for all youths (that will not include parental rights),
-no doubt their playbook has many many more that dismantle our freedoms in favor of socialist ideals and more control over our lives.
The almost incomprehensible wealth spent for social programs, entitlements, etc. over the last 50 years was generated by a capitalist society not a socialist one, where are they going to get the money now. You will now see debt, and then inflation, on a scale never seen in this country before. There will be even more hyper concentration of wealth, the reversal of jobs coming in to going back off-shore, and there is also a purported proposal to limit how much land/property a person or family can own. The Dems. say they are empowering people, they know this is BS, they are disempowering people. They will continue the divide and conquer technique until all the wealth and power is tightly in their control.
This power hungry struggle has been going on since time began. When are people going to really wake up and band together and fight for yours and everyone else’s freedom? It’s always the rich globalists who are fighting against us!
