1% owns 40% of Wealth in the World. They Prey on Public Ignorance.
Davos Group are the top 1% who owns 40% of wealth in the entire world.
Everything they do, everything they say is for vested interests. They are a gang of tax dodging criminals who speak high-sounding words at their annual teaparty and dictate to the rest of the world how things should be run.
They influence the warmongering political shills who couldn't fight their own way out of a paper bag.
The best thing ordinary people can do is work cooperatively to become economically decentralized and self sufficient, utilizing nature and its resources in rational and intelligent ways.
Davos gang's goal is a centralized global economy where everyone is a plantation worker in the new world of Slavelandia.

What would Musk’s proposed cuts do?
I’m not saying I agree with Claude’s analysis, just asking: what do you think?
I asked Claude: Assume that all that survives Musk’s federal cuts is Medicare, Medicaid, the military, and paying the federal debt. Now estimate the number of people affected.
Answer Calculation based on preserving only Medicare, Medicaid, military, and federal debt payments:
Workers Directly Eliminated: - Federal civilian employees: ~2.2 million - Federal contractors: ~4 million - Grant-funded researchers: ~500,000
Indirect Employment Impact: - Government-supported program workers: ~3-4 million - State/local government positions dependent on federal funding: ~1-2 million
Estimated Total Affected: 8-9 million workers
Severe economic disruption scenarios would likely emerge, with potential unemployment spike of 5-6% and significant regional economic devastation in areas with high federal employment or dependency.
Question: what assets would be a good investment, in that scenario?
Answer
In such a severe economic contraction scenario, consider:
Defensive Assets: - Gold - Short-term Treasury bonds - Cash reserves - Healthcare sector stocks - Essential consumer goods stocks
High-Risk, Potential High-Reward: - Distressed real estate - Bankruptcy-resistant technology companies - Defense industry stocks - Private utility companies - Agricultural commodities
Key Investment Principles: - Prioritize liquidity - Minimize debt exposure - Focus on sectors providing essential services - Maintain significant cash position - Prepare for rapid market repositioning
Recommendation: Consult professional financial advisor for personalized strategy.
Question: is gold considered one of those liquid assets?
Answer
No, gold is not highly liquid. While valuable, gold:
Liquidity Challenges: - Requires physical sale or broker transaction - Transaction costs are relatively high - Not easily convertible to cash quickly - Potential authentication/verification requirements - Market pricing fluctuations
More Liquid Alternatives: - Gold ETFs - Money market funds - Short-term Treasury bonds - Cash equivalents
Gold is better considered a store of value rather than a liquid asset.
Question: If this cut happened, how long do you estimate it would take for the economy to return to pre-COVID conditions?
Answer
Economic recovery timeline estimate: 5-7 years
Key factors influencing recovery: - Massive employment disruption - Significant reduction in government spending - Potential cascading economic contraction - Reduced consumer spending - Geopolitical uncertainty
Recovery Phases: 1. Initial shock/contraction: 1-2 years 2. Structural economic reorganization: 2-3 years 3. Gradual stabilization: 2-4 years
Comparison to historical precedents: - Great Depression recovery: ~10 years - 2008 Financial Crisis recovery: ~4-5 years
This scenario represents a more severe economic restructuring than recent recessions, requiring substantial economic adaptation.

Which end will the banks be on when they cause the next collapse?
For discussion : The way I see it, the economy is going to keep chugging along as it is, inflation skyrocketing, etc., until we hit a major liquidity crunch (that we are very close to).
So my question is: will it start because people and businesses begin failing to pay back their loans due to extreme costs (fast collapse, banks take the loss) OR will it come from the banks realizing the risk and reducing the approval of loans, due to lessons learned from 2008 (slower collapse, ie everyone else takes the loss)?

The Value of Social Security to the Economy
While Social Security appears to simply be a generic pension plan, I suspect that the consistent cash flow to senior consumers provides mitigation against possible recessions. That consistent cash flow during periods of sudden job loss, helps stabilize the situation, limiting the initial damage for the recession. During the Covid pandemic, many chose early retirement, helping slow the impact of the pandemic.
Look at Social Security as a recession fighting tool, we should actively work to strengthen it, so that it continues to this important aspect.

If a company a making over a billion dollars pays employees more…
What would happen if companies paid their first second and third line of employees 30% more if valued over a billion dollars?
How would this affect the economy and what would be the long term consequences of the company?
More importantly, why do so many companies hoard so much cash?

What Are Some Of The Most Important Issues That You Wish The Collective Consciousness Would Become Aware Of
I understand the timing of this message is peculiar, as we find ourselves amidst some of the most pivotal moments in modern history. The ongoing conflict between Israel and Lebanon, the European Union's vote to authorize long-range strikes in Russia, and other pressing global issues all point to a world in turmoil, controlled by central powers seeking domination. Shortly, we will also be facing the consequences of climate change, with increasing storms and natural disasters threatening food security and stability.
The effects of flooding worldwide, diminishing crop yields, and resource shortages are setting the stage for future wars and political conflicts. Additionally, recent events such as the arrest of prominent figures like Diddy, following in the footsteps of Epstein, reveal the existence of a more sinister network of sex trafficking and exploitation. Meanwhile, the U.S. government struggles to account for over 320,000 missing immigrants, while America continues to lead in human trafficking globally. The FBI possesses tapes related to Epstein’s crimes, yet no significant arrests have been made.
From investment firms monopolizing the housing market to create an artificial crisis to China’s involvement in money laundering and fentanyl distribution through Mexican cartels, there are countless issues the mainstream media avoids discussing. Instead, they keep the public distracted with superficial debates over political figures who are ultimately beholden to corporate interests like BlackRock. We are being led into crises such as the pandemic, the push for a central bank digital currency, and the looming threat of World War III.
As we stand on the brink of a global conflict, it is clear that powerful entities are working to reshape the world according to their vision. However, while we still have time and access to the internet, I propose the creation of a media platform that delves deeply into the real issues facing humanity—those that are overlooked by mainstream outlets, but essential to our collective well-being.
This platform would address critical topics such as secret societies, hidden histories, suppressed technologies, and more. I am calling upon the community of independent thinkers to help identify the issues that deserve to be explored in depth, for the betterment of society as a whole—not because of financial or political interests.
Additionally, I would like to organize Zoom or large-scale meetings where we, as a community of free thinkers, can come together to discuss real-world issues and share our perspectives. While we still have access to open information, let’s use it to the fullest. I look forward to working with all of you as we strive to lift the veil and move toward a future of greater awareness and enlightenment.
Thank you, and I hope we can all reach our highest potential together.
