The Coming Economic Reset and What It May Mean to You
Junious Ricardo
Stanton
“The World Economic Forum is the
International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation. The Forum engages
the foremost political, business, cultural and other leaders of society to
shape global, regional and industry agendas.
It was established in
1971 as a not-for-profit foundation and is headquartered in Geneva , Switzerland .
It is independent, impartial and not tied to any special interests.” https://www.weforum.org/about/world-economic-forum
There are
powerful individuals who meet once a year to plot and plan a global
socio-economic-political agenda for the world. The World Economic Forum is one
such entity. The members of the World Economic
Forum maintain they are merely a global organization of elected officials,
entrepreneurs and business people seeking to influence the way the world does
business, supposedly for the benefit of mankind. That sure sounds nice but is
it their real agenda?
The WEF is calling for a reset, a
reengineering of the world. It will outlined at their next annual meeting in
January 2021. Here is what they are saying, “COVID-19 lockdowns may be
gradually easing, but anxiety about the world’s social and economic prospects
is only intensifying. There is good reason to worry: a sharp economic downturn
has already begun, and we could be facing the worst depression since the 1930s.
But, while this outcome is likely, it is not unavoidable. To achieve a better
outcome, the world must act jointly and swiftly to revamp all aspects of our
societies and economies, from education to social contracts and working
conditions. Every country, from the United States
to China ,
must participate, and every industry, from oil and gas to tech, must be
transformed. In short, we need a ‘Great Reset’ of capitalism.” That was written
by Kaus Schwab Founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum. https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/06/now-is-the-time-for-a-great-reset/
In another piece Schwab says this,
“The Fourth Industrial Revolution, finally, will change not only what we do but
also who we are. It will affect our identity and all the issues associated with
it: our sense of privacy, our notions of ownership, our consumption patterns,
the time we devote to work and leisure, and how we develop our careers,
cultivate our skills, meet people, and nurture relationships. It is already
changing our health and leading to a ‘quantified’ self, and sooner than we
think it may lead to human augmentation.” https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2016/01/the-fourth-industrial-revolution-what-it-means-and-how-to-respond/
What does Schwab mean by quantified
self and augmentation? Sounds like some serious Frankenstein/Twilight Zone
stuff to me. My question is whose interests’ do they have at heart and whose
interests do they serve theirs or the masses? Are the two interests mutually
beneficial or mutually exclusive?
Looking at their institutional brochure I see
very few people of color. I do see a prominent picture of Bill Gates and for me
this is an ominous sign. Bill Gates like his father is a staunch eugenicist (a
person who believes in a master race, population control, and sterilization).
The Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation, the WEF, Johns Hopkins School of Public Health Security sponsored and
held a table top exercise called Even 201 in October of 2019 in New York City.
In it they gamed and used life like scenarios to determine world preparedness
for a global pandemic much like we are experiencing now. In fact their scenario was much worse! In it
sixty million people died. https://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/scenario.html
Just “coincidentally” after this
preparedness scenario in October, New York
became the US
epicenter of the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak a few months later.
According to the Event 201 Website,
the 2019 simulation was one of several they have held over the years. https://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/about
Interestingly we are living out aspects of their simulation with the current
SARS-CoV-2 contagion. Their recommendations to the world were: shut the global
economy down which resulted in massive unemployment, economic setback, bankruptcies
and suffering. They advocated bizarre “prevention modalities” like shutting
down the world economy, quarantining healthy people, demanding social isolation
when it is a known fact humans are social beings who need and thrive best in
social environments!
While their Website doesn’t detail
the World Economic Forum’s exact plans for the coming global reset, I hope
their agenda is not as draconian as what they planned during Event 201 and the
real life SARS-CoV-2! Keep your eyes and ears peeled.

Don't Allow the .001% to Make Fools of US
Don’t Allow The 1% to Make Fools of Us
Junious Ricardo
Stanton
The only
way an extremely small percentage of the world’s population can rob, and hoard
most of the world’s wealth and manipulate and control the masses to work
against our own best interests is to trick and dupe us into doing their bidding.
The ruling classes don’t respect us; they view us as submissive sheep to be
sheered and slaughtered at will. But they are not going to come out and say
this in public to us, they use fancy and noble sounding words and phrases and
coercion to dupe and intimidate us into going along with their program and
their okey-doke. However upon closer examination this is exactly what they are
doing to us now and have done for thousands of years. The later great Dr. Amos
Wilson once said, “In sum, the ruling groups cannot maintain their hegemony and
sustain socioeconomic inequality which are the foundations of their regency,
without perverting the ostensible missions of the society’s sociopolitical
institutions and utilizing them as instruments of oppression. In America this perversion
must take place while the ruling groups hide their oppressive faces behind the
seductive façade of democracy, liberty, equality, and brotherhood.” Black On Black Violence The Psychodynamics
of Black Self-Annihilation In Service of White Domination page 46
Abraham Lincoln once said, “You can fool all
of the people some of the time, you can fool all the people some of the time
but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.” George W. Bu$h a man no one ever accused of
being brilliant said, “You can fool some of the people all the time, and those
are the ones you want to concentrate on.” Our challenge as citizens of the
world is not to be the ones the ruling classes concentrate on to hoodwink and
bamboozle. But this is becoming more and more difficult every passing day due
to the nefarious plotting and planning the ruling classes and their minions
engage in for this very purpose.
Most of their cunning is done in
secret and they use misdirection and deceit to execute their agenda. Most people
in the US don’t know the ruling elites’ history of mind control,
https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/what-we-know-about-cias-midcentury-mind-control-project-180962836/
, they know very little about eugenics and population control http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/blog/unwanted-sterilization-and-eugenics-programs-in-the-united-states/,
social engineering, https://www.realcleardefense.com/articles/2018/07/18/social_engineering_as_a_threat_to_societies_the_cambridge_analytica_case_113620.html
or their plans to reduce us to debt
peons and wage slaves. https://www.truthdig.com/articles/breaking-the-chains-of-debt-peonage/
How is this possible? Because the
ruling elites own the media and a handful of conglomerates control almost all
media in the US https://www.forbes.com/sites/arielshapiro/2019/05/15/worlds-largest-media-companies-2019/#2531c3aa754b Their goal is to control our thinking, to
mold our worldviews and create a fake reality within an ubiquitous Matrix we
are unaware of through the use of algorithms to predict, manipulate and control
our thinking, buying and behavior. I call it the three “B’s” what we believe,
what we buy and how we behave. https://cyber.harvard.edu/story/2018-07/understanding-media-and-information-quality-age-artificial-intelligence-automation
The ruling classes have gotten us hooked and
addicted to their “social media” which is even more pervasive than television.
Most of us are unaware social media is the Trojan horse to access our minds. We
buy it and use it because it is popular, it gives us “status” and we are made
to think, by the PR and advertising companies owned or employed by the ruling
classes, that we cannot live without it. We never stop to think or ask is this thing
spying on me, manipulating me or how this is affecting me.
The secret is, it is in a very
cunning manner. “Algorithms are invisible pieces of code that tell a computer
how to accomplish a specific task. Think of it as a recipe for a computer: An
algorithm tells the computer what to do in order to produce a certain outcome.
Every time you do a Google search or look at your Facebook feed or use GPS
navigation in your car, you’re interacting with an algorithm. A new book by Hannah Fry,
a mathematician at University College London, argues that we shouldn’t think of
algorithms themselves as either good or bad, but that we should be paying much more attention to
the people programming them. Algorithms are making hugely consequential
decisions in our society on everything from medicine to transportation to
welfare benefits to criminal justice and beyond. Yet the general public knows
almost nothing about them, and even less about the engineers and coders who are
creating them behind the scenes.” https://www.vox.com/technology/2018/10/1/17882340/how-algorithms-control-your-life-hannah-fry
The goal of
the modern ruling class which includes corporate CEOs, both elected and
non-elected officials is to create a social environment that is predictable for
them because they program and control it. One of the ways they do this is to control
what we watch, listen to, think and believe. They are not doing this for our
benefit. Former CIA Director William Casey who served under Ronald Reagan said,
“We’ll Know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American
public believes is false.” This is an actual quote and it is symbolic of the
ruling class’ disdain and intent for us. It is up to us not to allow them to
dumb us down. There is no real red pill for us to take to wake ourselves up. What
we have to do is to think for yourself, be skeptical, discerning and
discriminating with your media consumption.

Big Pharma Has A Major Image Problem
Big Pharma Has A Major Image Problem
Junious Ricardo
Stanton
“The new low in the
pharmaceutical industry's U.S.
image comes amid a range of criticisms of industry norms, from generating the
highest drug costs in the world to spending massive amounts in lobbying
politicians to the industry's role in the U.S. opioid crisis. Several
Democratic candidates have called out the industry in their party's
presidential debates. Just after Gallup
conducted this poll, an Oklahoma
judge ordered Johnson & Johnson to pay $572 million for its role in the
state's opioid epidemic. Meanwhile, legislators on Capitol Hill are working to
rein in the industry's drug prices.” https://news.gallup.com/poll/266060/big-pharma-sinks-bottom-industry-rankings.aspx
The ravages
of the global SARS-CoV-2 outbreak have placed the spotlight on the
multinational pharmaceutical companies whose reputations have been tanking the
past few years as they rush to create a vaccine and treatment therapies for the
disease. But “Big Pharma” has a serious image problem. In a 2019 Gallup Poll
survey respondents ranked the pharmaceutical industry the lowest. https://news.gallup.com/poll/266060/big-pharma-sinks-bottom-industry-rankings.aspx
This is not surprising since the
industry has come under increasing scrutiny and ire for an assortment of
reasons like: high prices, price gauging, and responsibility for the opioid
crisis, safety concerns and the numerous legal actions taken against them. It
doesn’t help that the industry spends far more on marketing and advertising
than it does on research and development! https://www.vox.com/2015/2/11/8018691/big-pharma-research-advertising
The opioid
crisis currently raging across this country has not helped the public feel warm
and fuzzy towards the pharmaceutical industry. While physicians write the
prescription the drug companies are the ones who schmoozed doctors, wined and
dined them to get them to prescribe their drugs. Some doctors even received
kick backs from industry reps and the companies. “CNN reports millions of
dollars paid to doctors by companies that make opioids, but these payments are
just the tip of the iceberg. Using ProPublica‘s
database, we looked at all pharmaceuticals that had at least $10 million in
payments to doctors between 2013 and 2015. The indications for these drugs run
the gamut, from diabetes to Parkinson’s to skin disorders and more.
But the drugs for which companies paid the most to doctors
were not opioids – they were cancer drugs, blood thinners, and drugs to treat
mental health conditions. Companies also shelled out a substantial amount (more
than $150 million) for drugs to treat diabetes and multiple sclerosis.”
Industry Payments to Doctors: Opioids Are The Tip of The Iceberg Judith Garber https://lowninstitute.org/industry-payments-to-doctors-opioids-are-the-tip-of-the-iceberg/
The US has the best
government money can buy and Big Pharma is one of the top bribers. The
pharmaceutical industry is one of the top spenders when it comes to lobbying
Congress to get what it wants. “The pharmaceutical industry is holding on to
its title as the top lobbying force in Washington
amid pressure from lawmakers at all ends of the ideological spectrum. Drugmakers have spent more than $129
million through September, slightly down from nearly $133 million at this time
last year, but still far more than any other industry. The larger pharmaceutical / health products industry,
which includes medical devices and dietary supplement companies along with drug
makers, spent $228 million through the third quarter of 2019, a record-breaking
pace that is up $10 million from this time last year…Some of the biggest
increases from the industry came from Akebia Therapeutics (up to $1.5 million
from $110,000 this time last year) and Humira manufacturer AbbVie (up to $5.4 million from $4.3
million). The industry’s main trade association, Pharmaceutical Research & Manufacturers of America,
increased its spending by $930,750 to nearly $22.8 million. It is the fourth-highest lobbying spender so
far. That spending comes on top of the industry’s many ad campaigns
designed to influence lawmakers and the general public. The industry fights threatening
legislation in creative ways, including funding prominent but unrelated associations to
push pro-industry messages on the airwaves.” Big Pharm Continues To Top
Lobbying Spending Karl Evers- Hillstom https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2019/10/big-pharma-continues-to-top-lobbying-spending/
Big Pharma
has come under serious attack by activists claiming vaccines are the cause of
the rise in autism, the drug companies have also faced major law suits because
of adverse affects of their products. There has been a raging debate between
supporters of the Measles Mumps and Rubella (MMR) vaccine and those who claim
the vaccine is linked to autism. The opponents are called anti-vaxxers. The
corporate media generally sides with the CDC, WHO and Gates and Big Pharma. Many
parent groups are skeptical about the efficacy and safety of vaccines. Studies
sponsored and paid for by both sides are used to buttress each side’s positions.
So far it seems to be a draw but the debate has left many very suspicious of
Big Pharma and the industry has not been able to shake this mistrust. To
compound matters, in recent years several multinational pharmaceutical companies
have faced and lost major lawsuits over their products harmful affects and not
just from opioids. https://www.pharmaceutical-technology.com/features/biggest-pharmaceutical-lawsuits/.
A recent
Reuters/Ipsos poll indicated a quarter of Americans stated they had no interest
in taking a COVID 19 vaccine if it was offered because they had serious
concerns about how the vaccines were being rushed to market (48%) and another
segment (42%) stated they didn’t trust the vaccine makers. http://www.informationliberation.com/?id=61474
Now Big Pharma is trying to clean
up its image in anticipation of a humongous payday with SARS-CoV-2 vaccines and
treatment therapies. There is a push and rush to come up with vaccines and
therapies for SARS-CoV-2 which will provide a boondoggle for Big Pharma. In
their typical profit over people mindset, Big Pharma is skipping the normal
research and testing process to get their products to market.
https://www.livescience.com/coronavirus-vaccine-trial-no-animal-testing.html
We need to remember why Big Pharma
has such a poor reputation and has garnered so much mistrust! We must keep an
eye on the fact they are being given carte blanche and immunity from legal
liability to fast track these COVID 19 drugs, getting them to market by skipping
the usual testing procedures.
This is why
Bill Gates keeps pushing the lock down until a vaccine is available and Trump
promises a vaccine with a few months! We need to be extremely skeptical and
vigilant about these vaccines. https://thefreedomarticles.com/criminal-big-pharma-put-in-charge-covid-19-vaccine/
Remember Bill Gates is a eugenicist (a racist who favors selective breeding) and
is pushing for depopulation, population control and sterilization through
vaccination. https://www.fli.org.au/bill-gates-saviour-for-a-new-world-order/.
Big Pharma is part of Gates’ eugenic agenda.

The American Powder Keg
The American Powder Keg
Junious Ricardo
Stanton
“On May 26, hundreds of protesters were attacked by police in the
city of Minneapolis
during a protest against the murder of George Floyd, an African-American man,
by a police officer on Monday May 25. Protesters gathered at the intersection
where Lloyd was murdered on Tuesday May 26 after the news of his death spread
over social media. A memorial for Floyd was organized and people chanted
against the police and held up signs condemning institutionalized racism in the
US .
Protests were also held outside the Minneapolis Police
Department’s 3rd precinct office building, the circle to which the accused
police officers belonged to. Eye witness accounts over social media alleged
that police were found using tear gas, drones and riot gear to disperse the
crowd, leading to a violent clash at the scene.” https://peoplesdispatch.org/2020/05/27/widespread-outrage-across-the-us-over-the-murder-of-george-lloyd-by-police/
Minneapolis
police officer Derek Chauvin’ callous and nonchalant actions that directly
contributed to the death of George Lloyd as three fellow officers stood
passively by has sparked national demonstrations, protests and riots.
Lloyd’s death received more media coverage than the March 2020 death of Breonna Taylor an EMT by Louisville Police who
busted into her home firing wildly while attempting to execute a search warrant
at what turned out to be the wrong house. Her murder followed the killing of Ahmaud
Arbery who was innocently jogging in Glynn
County Georgia
by three white men in February. These deaths were senseless and uncalled for as
are all the deaths by the hands of our own people due to the hatred and
negation we have internalized from this society. We have to be more resolute
when we affirm Black Lives Matter if we want to make it real!
George
Lloyd’s death occurred during a time folks were extremely frustrated and
anxious due to the round the clock gloom, doom and death propaganda about the
SARS-CoV-2 by the corporate and monopoly social media (Facebook, Google,
Twitter etc), also from being locked down as the US economy came to a grinding halt
and because of the uncertainty of their futures.
The policy of economic shutdown,
social isolation, wearing masks, social distancing, not being able to visit
relatives in the hospital or acute care facilities has heightened the stress
levels of many Americans and concomitantly undermined the psychological and
physical wellbeing of many people.
The
controlled narrative promoted by the media and the political overreach of many
elected officials have contributed to unheralded fear, stress and pressure.
While people may not be able to fully articulate their frustrations and fears
part of their frustration is because there are no historical, scientific or
medical precedents to social and economic lockdowns. Deep down inside they know
something is not right. We intuitively know humans need and crave contact,
interaction and intimacy so the lockdown runs counter to our basic
psychological and social needs.
The
frustrations and the anxiety about their future and more importantly the fear
generated by the media hype of SAS-CoV-2 have increased the stress levels and
the demonstrations and riots we are seeing now are not necessarily centered on
the death of George Lloyd. Life as we knew it has changed people didn’t have
the usual diversions to take their mind off of their troubles, in person no
sports, concerts or large gatherings When an organism, machine or person is
under immense stress, it needs a release or it will explode. Despite the
control of the COVID 19 narrative there are psychologists warning of unhealthy
outcomes from the lockdowns. “Over long periods
of time, social isolation can increase the risk of a variety of health problems, including heart disease, depression, dementia, and
even death. A 2015 meta-analysis of the scientific literature by Julianne
Holt-Lunstad, a research psychologist at Brigham Young
University , and
colleagues determined that chronic social isolation increases the risk of mortality by 29%.
That may be because social contacts can buffer the negative effects of
stress. Lab studies by Holt-Lunstad and others have found that having a friend
present can reduce a person’s cardiovascular response to a stressful task.
There’s even a correlation between perceived social connectedness and stress
responses.” Social Distancing Prevents Infections But It can Have Unintended
Consequences Greg Miller https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2020/03/we-are-social-species-how-will-social-distancing-affect-us.
Technology can help but humans need
closeness in their interactions. “Even so, those modes of communication don’t
entirely replace face-to-face interactions, Segrin says. ‘When we interact with
other people, a lot of the meaning conveyed between two people is actually not
conveyed in the actual words, but in nonverbal behavior,’ he says. A lot of
those subtleties of body language, facial expressions, and gestures can get
lost with electronic media. ‘They’re not as good as face to face interactions,
but they’re infinitely better than no interaction,’ Segrin says.” ibid
While
Lloyd’s death was egregious many of the nationwide protests are due to people
wanting to get out, mix and mingle especially for a worthy cause. People want
to express their displeasure at the system including their unhappiness with the
lockdowns and their anxiety about the economy. In many ways their protests are a
way for them to let off steam. The riots may have been deliberately provoked,
time will tell but emotions are running high and much of that is due to current
events. These protests are providing a release.
