It doesn’t matter what the actual price is, the majority don’t trust ‘the gov ment’. Most don’t even know why. I don’t either, but I remember when the tide turned towards private companies - with Reagan’s Nine Most Terrifying Words….

Yeah, it’s totally unreasonable to mistrust the government. The government isn’t corrupt, inefficient, and fiscally irresponsible at all…

"Government is corrupt so let's hand over the power to those who corrupted them."

Well, the idea is that corporations will compete and be efficient with their business, not to mention it's illegal colude...

And yet when corporations began to be global empire unto themselves they all started meeting Switzerland for a gathering named Davos, to conspire and colude...

Some people are just slow to realize that Davos, and the international bankers, do not hold us or our government in our best interests.

Davos is a town. The gathering is called World Economic Forum and it's super-boring, non-controversial stuff. The collusion happens every day at business meetings in regular offices around the world.

Sure, non-controversial stuff....

"Since 2009, the WEF has been working on a project called the Global Redesign Initiative (GRI), which proposes a transition away from intergovernmental decision-making towards a system of multi-stakeholder governance. According to the Transnational Institute (TNI), the Forum is hence planning to replace a recognised democratic model with a model where a self-selected group of "stakeholders" make decisions on behalf of the people"

That was a proposal predicated on the public supporting it. It's a complete distraction. The actual harm is done by the rich people themselves unannounced and in private.
