00:00:00.000 Thank you.
00:00:30.000 This is Radio 314 on the Red Ice Radio Network.
00:01:00.000 So listen up because we're revisiting the subject of collectivism.
00:01:04.400 Collectivism means the subjugation of the individual to a group, whether to a race, class, or state, it does not matter.
00:01:11.480 Collectivism holds that a man must be chained to collective action and collective thought for the sake of what is called the common good.
00:01:19.140 It's a one-size-fits-all solution, which of course does not exist.
00:01:23.660 Remember, Soviet Russia was a country professedly dedicated to the common good,
00:01:28.840 where with the exception of a minuscule clique of rulers, the entire population existed in subhuman misery for over two generations.
00:01:36.240 The common good has served as the moral justification of most social systems and of all tyrannies in history.
00:01:44.240 The common good, or the public interest, is an undefined and undefinable concept.
00:01:49.700 There is no such entity as society or the public or us.
00:01:54.820 The group is only a number of individual men.
00:01:57.780 Nothing can be good for the tribe, as good pertains only to a living organism, to an individual living organism,
00:02:05.680 not to a disembodied aggregate of relationships.
00:02:09.420 John, welcome back.
00:02:10.480 I'm so glad to have a sane voice of reason back on my program.
00:02:13.060 It seems the majority of people I speak to are blinded by the false promises of collectivism and false unity.
00:02:18.600 It's the new religion, the new paradigm everyone's been asking for.
00:02:23.920 Yeah, that's a good intro.
00:02:25.900 Everyone is asking for it.
00:02:29.200 It comes out of despair, I think, on the part of a lot of people,
00:02:33.560 because they're grasping at straws, thinking that somehow if we just think about everybody all together like one giant mass of oatmeal,
00:02:45.500 that this is going to somehow solve the problems of the world and everything is going to work out just fine.
00:02:50.680 And, you know, it is the major delusion of our times, I would say.
00:02:57.880 I agree.
00:02:59.060 Well, the last time you were on this program, we discussed various guises of collectivism and how it seeks to swallow people up.
00:03:04.940 So let's jump into this collectivist conspiracy, because I know you have some new angles to share,
00:03:08.980 including information passed to you by a retired propaganda master.
00:03:13.260 Yes.
00:03:13.660 Well, let's start with a little bit of history.
00:03:18.380 Before the end of World War II, actually, on the eve of World War II,
00:03:24.880 the Council on Foreign Relations in New York, which I'm sure many of your listeners know is a Rockefeller organization,
00:03:33.080 decided that they had to plan for post-war society.
00:03:38.840 And so they put together a committee, and the central question was,
00:03:44.420 could the United States survive as an isolated country,
00:03:49.460 or would it need resources that demanded that it go outside its own borders?
00:03:56.340 And so naturally, the answer was, yes, we have to find resources that exist outside the country.
00:04:03.120 And this was kind of a charade, really, because the answer was a foregone conclusion.
00:04:11.280 And what it really came down to was, America would have to become an imperial empire,
00:04:18.060 and control the entire world to make sure that it had continuing access to all these resources that it needed.
00:04:25.260 And because the Council on Foreign Relations had tremendous connections into the State Department,
00:04:32.020 and therefore into the President, Roosevelt at the time,
00:04:36.520 and because behind the scenes, the CFR actually was in a higher controlling position than the government itself,
00:04:45.700 that formula came to pass.
00:04:48.420 But in order for it to succeed, there needed to be a tremendous propaganda front
00:04:55.680 that would shape the picture of imperial empire in a completely different way.
00:05:02.940 It wasn't going to be, yes, we're going to conquer the world, and everybody's on board, and let's go.
00:05:08.800 It was the greatest good for the greatest number of people.
00:05:13.400 We're all in this together.
00:05:15.260 It's for a better world.
00:05:16.660 We have to do what's necessary to make humanity rise up.
00:05:23.640 And all of these clichรฉs that were sprayed out from the time of the end of the Second World War.
00:05:31.740 And as this retired propaganda master, Ellis Medivoy, told me on several occasions,
00:05:41.440 this was a real overarching plan.
00:05:44.900 And it was very detailed in how it was to be executed,
00:05:50.420 that everybody from educational to religious institutions to government to even corporations,
00:05:59.320 anybody who had any sort of public voice was now going to be bombarded with information
00:06:08.840 that would lead them to believe that we were on the dawn of a better world
00:06:14.140 if we would just all think of ourselves as, quote, part of humanity.
00:06:19.400 And this was a picture that was now painted to cover over the fact
00:06:23.460 that what was really going on was imperial conquest all over the world,
00:06:28.700 which has continued to this day, of course.
00:06:30.720 And so there you see some of the roots of modern collectivism
00:06:37.800 as complete hype and charade and delusion that's intentionally spread
00:06:43.820 so that people are, their minds are tapped into by these propagandists
00:06:52.000 in a place where, you know, everybody would like to see things get better
00:06:56.900 in general terms, whatever that means.
00:06:59.520 Everybody would like to see the world getting along with itself, sure.
00:07:06.160 And into that part of the mind comes all of this propaganda
00:07:10.080 that leads to something, for example, like the overwhelming election of Obama in 2008,
00:07:15.660 where there was really, it came to a climax in a way in this orgasm of hysteria
00:07:25.820 about the need to have this president because he was a transcendent figure.
00:07:32.440 And why was he transcendent?
00:07:33.780 Because he could see the big picture of all of humanity
00:07:37.840 and politics would never be the same again.
00:07:40.180 And so this was promoted as electioneering, and it worked.
00:07:46.380 And we can see the disastrous results in the aftermath.
00:07:51.340 Sure can.
00:07:52.660 Now, if we go back to education,
00:07:55.760 John Doe is a prominent figure behind Tate's compulsory public education in America
00:07:59.160 and a socialist, and he vehemently opposed the idea of an individual
00:08:03.260 and a free society where the individual is respected.
00:08:06.140 And in fact, he said that it's the government that must decide
00:08:08.980 how each individual is best to serve it.
00:08:10.980 Can you believe that?
00:08:13.340 Unfortunately, I can.
00:08:15.320 I studied John Doe in college when I was taking philosophy courses,
00:08:20.800 and the cover story on an academic level at the time
00:08:25.700 was that he was the voice, one of the voices,
00:08:28.520 of a new American philosophy called pragmatism,
00:08:31.840 or what some people called instrumentalism,
00:08:35.240 which meant that everything had to be viewed in terms of its effect,
00:08:41.500 that no statements were really true or false.
00:08:45.440 They only would lead to something effective or ineffective.
00:08:50.940 And so it followed from that that in his educational theories,
00:08:55.340 he would promote the idea that the individual is just a unit
00:08:59.180 in a larger equation,
00:09:00.640 and that government would be shaping the future.
00:09:04.520 And therefore, the whole educational system,
00:09:08.100 well, by implication, would have to be geared to wiping out
00:09:11.700 the sense of the individual who survives
00:09:16.120 and blooms on his own terms and on his own achievements.
00:09:20.740 So achievement really took a tremendous torpedo
00:09:26.620 in the wake of Dewey and other such educational theorists
00:09:31.580 because if you left in education the idea
00:09:38.420 of individual achievement being important,
00:09:41.500 then you would give credence to the whole idea
00:09:44.440 of the independent individual,
00:09:46.360 which was anathema to these people.
00:09:49.480 Well, they couldn't stand for that.
00:09:51.760 So they had to reduce everything to what is good for the group,
00:09:56.560 what should be the curriculum of the group,
00:09:59.140 what should be dropped out of the curriculum,
00:10:01.720 and of course, what was dropped out
00:10:03.460 was the original founding documents of the country,
00:10:07.900 why the Declaration of Independence
00:10:09.880 and the Constitution were written as they were,
00:10:13.100 why the idea of severely limited government
00:10:15.860 was put into effect,
00:10:18.460 and the only possible answer that you would see
00:10:22.600 out of those founding documents
00:10:24.240 was that the individual took precedence,
00:10:27.340 that the government was supposed to exist
00:10:29.500 on behalf of freeing up the individual
00:10:33.600 to achieve what he wanted to achieve in life.
00:10:37.760 And so this was completely scratched
00:10:39.860 out of educational curriculum,
00:10:42.500 completely gone.
00:10:43.560 And I got in as a young person being educated
00:10:49.640 just, I would say,
00:10:51.700 before the full force of that program hit.
00:10:55.740 And so when I went back into schools as a teacher,
00:10:59.620 oh, maybe five, six, seven years
00:11:01.800 after I was out of college,
00:11:05.360 the change was just staggering.
00:11:07.620 I mean, it wasn't any longer about
00:11:11.460 who's smart, who's achieving,
00:11:14.660 who's doing the work,
00:11:16.660 who's an independent thinker,
00:11:18.840 who has talent.
00:11:21.240 All of that was just completely destroyed.
00:11:24.720 Yeah, now we're probably being told,
00:11:26.340 and I bet a lot of the kids are being taught too,
00:11:28.060 it's selfish and greedy
00:11:29.220 to promote freedom for the individual.
00:11:31.140 You can't just be thinking about yourself anymore.
00:11:34.120 This is a thing of the past.
00:11:36.400 The concept of being an individual is,
00:11:38.700 it's a myth.
00:11:39.620 We're in this together, like you say,
00:11:41.240 so get with it.
00:11:43.980 Right?
00:11:44.380 Yeah, that is what's happening.
00:11:48.700 And I don't know,
00:11:49.600 on the last interview we did,
00:11:53.040 I quoted a sociologist
00:11:56.440 from a California university
00:11:59.120 who basically wrote just what you said,
00:12:02.100 that the concept of the individual
00:12:04.420 is now defunct.
00:12:06.080 It no longer has any,
00:12:07.820 you know, credence.
00:12:10.240 And it was just a sort of artificial construct,
00:12:13.980 and now everything has to be about
00:12:16.580 what is good for the group.
00:12:18.800 And these social science people
00:12:20.720 have contributed an enormous amount
00:12:24.400 to destroying the whole idea
00:12:26.760 of the individual.
00:12:27.540 And a word about them,
00:12:32.500 coming out of the Second World War,
00:12:34.580 many of these people
00:12:35.560 who became professors
00:12:37.620 of the social sciences,
00:12:39.000 like sociology and anthropology
00:12:40.780 and so forth,
00:12:42.400 were people who were
00:12:44.760 working in psychological operations,
00:12:48.140 warfare operations.
00:12:49.860 And they needed jobs,
00:12:51.840 they needed positions of authority,
00:12:54.180 and so they were put
00:12:56.220 into a new discipline
00:12:57.300 called mass communications,
00:12:59.420 which really was a pseudo-discipline.
00:13:02.220 It had no real underpinning at all,
00:13:04.520 but it was just a way
00:13:05.580 to allow them
00:13:06.720 to keep influencing society,
00:13:09.180 which they did.
00:13:10.780 And they did it
00:13:11.960 by studying groups,
00:13:13.460 cultures,
00:13:15.160 nations,
00:13:16.060 tribes,
00:13:16.780 clans,
00:13:17.420 but never the individual.
00:13:19.720 Never did any of these people
00:13:21.680 ever write.
00:13:24.400 Well,
00:13:24.800 I was in with this tribe
00:13:26.460 in South America,
00:13:27.440 and one of the interesting things
00:13:28.500 I noticed
00:13:28.960 was that there were individuals
00:13:30.120 in this group
00:13:30.960 who were different
00:13:31.980 from the rest of the group,
00:13:33.760 which, of course,
00:13:34.900 is always the case
00:13:35.680 in any group,
00:13:36.460 but you would never know that
00:13:38.300 from reading their work.
00:13:40.480 And in fact,
00:13:41.000 I remember a guy,
00:13:43.000 this was probably
00:13:43.740 in the 1980s,
00:13:45.500 who had lived
00:13:46.660 for maybe a dozen years
00:13:49.380 with a tribe
00:13:50.360 in South America.
00:13:52.660 And he kept telling people
00:13:54.040 after he came back
00:13:55.120 and they asked him
00:13:55.760 what it was like,
00:13:56.460 he said,
00:13:57.020 it was like being
00:13:58.280 with any group of people.
00:14:00.360 There are the good guys,
00:14:01.580 the bad guys,
00:14:02.680 the people who go along
00:14:03.960 with everything,
00:14:04.620 the independent-minded people.
00:14:06.480 He said,
00:14:07.020 forget the gloss
00:14:07.960 of, you know,
00:14:08.820 what is the group.
00:14:10.440 It's not the way it is.
00:14:11.840 Once you're inside
00:14:12.840 long enough
00:14:13.540 and you're accepted,
00:14:14.320 it becomes like
00:14:16.000 any other
00:14:16.620 just random bunch of people.
00:14:18.960 There are all kinds
00:14:19.740 of individuals.
00:14:20.480 But of course,
00:14:22.260 this was completely
00:14:23.460 erased
00:14:24.840 by the social science people
00:14:26.840 because
00:14:27.220 they wanted to promote
00:14:29.460 through education mainly
00:14:31.140 that the coming wave
00:14:33.580 is in fact
00:14:34.720 the group,
00:14:35.340 the group,
00:14:35.820 the collective.
00:14:36.400 It's all about that.
00:14:37.800 That's what you study.
00:14:38.860 That's what you learn about.
00:14:40.520 And
00:14:41.080 you're not concerned
00:14:42.560 with the individual at all
00:14:43.680 because that doesn't
00:14:44.620 even exist.
00:14:45.300 the state
00:14:49.780 also hates
00:14:50.480 the individual.
00:14:51.340 So tell us about
00:14:52.040 the individual
00:14:52.720 versus the planned state,
00:14:54.820 which is another aspect.
00:14:56.920 Yes.
00:14:59.020 Again,
00:14:59.760 going back
00:15:00.700 to World War II,
00:15:03.800 these are
00:15:04.380 social scientists
00:15:05.540 who are not really
00:15:07.500 scientists at all,
00:15:09.000 but really
00:15:09.900 propagandists.
00:15:11.300 they assumed
00:15:14.120 as a basic
00:15:15.780 foundation
00:15:16.420 for their work
00:15:17.300 that
00:15:19.360 all nations,
00:15:21.560 all societies
00:15:22.660 had to be
00:15:24.400 planned societies.
00:15:25.520 they just
00:15:27.200 took that
00:15:27.920 for granted
00:15:28.540 and it was
00:15:29.840 implicit
00:15:30.300 in everything
00:15:30.920 they wrote
00:15:31.580 because
00:15:32.680 if it wasn't,
00:15:33.940 then what good
00:15:34.640 was their academic
00:15:35.580 discipline?
00:15:36.240 It was just
00:15:36.700 something to
00:15:37.580 sort of
00:15:39.500 entertain yourself
00:15:40.620 with,
00:15:41.220 but
00:15:41.400 they were much
00:15:42.500 more
00:15:43.120 serious
00:15:44.280 about it.
00:15:46.500 They were
00:15:47.100 basically
00:15:48.620 intellectual
00:15:51.140 legislators
00:15:51.960 if you will,
00:15:54.380 who were saying
00:15:55.220 look,
00:15:56.460 we now have
00:15:57.100 the capacity
00:15:57.900 technologically
00:15:59.380 and in every
00:16:00.040 other way
00:16:00.580 to study groups
00:16:02.040 and study
00:16:02.560 societies,
00:16:03.540 but why?
00:16:04.980 What's the purpose?
00:16:05.880 Well,
00:16:06.100 obviously the purpose
00:16:07.100 is so that we can
00:16:07.940 plan these societies,
00:16:09.660 how they will work,
00:16:11.140 how they'll operate,
00:16:12.180 who's in charge,
00:16:14.100 what will be
00:16:14.800 distributed to whom,
00:16:16.480 on what terms,
00:16:18.420 what the laws
00:16:19.240 will be,
00:16:19.780 the regulations,
00:16:20.620 and so forth
00:16:21.260 because
00:16:21.820 that's the future.
00:16:23.540 That's where
00:16:23.960 we're going.
00:16:24.500 And so that's
00:16:25.840 why we need
00:16:26.420 to learn
00:16:26.840 about various
00:16:27.500 societies
00:16:27.980 so we can
00:16:28.480 apply all
00:16:29.200 this to
00:16:30.260 planning the
00:16:31.980 societies of
00:16:32.840 every nation
00:16:33.500 on the face
00:16:34.060 of the earth,
00:16:35.000 which again
00:16:36.140 destroys the
00:16:37.020 whole concept
00:16:37.660 of the individual
00:16:38.480 and individual
00:16:39.360 freedom
00:16:39.980 and the
00:16:41.940 inherent right
00:16:43.220 to decide
00:16:45.000 on one's own
00:16:45.760 future.
00:16:46.320 all of this
00:16:48.720 goes by the
00:16:49.440 boards
00:16:49.860 because
00:16:50.480 and this
00:16:51.780 has been
00:16:52.100 kind of
00:16:52.500 a tacit
00:16:53.060 assumption
00:16:53.560 throughout
00:16:54.160 governments
00:16:54.900 as well
00:16:55.980 that most
00:16:57.240 commentators
00:16:58.160 ignore.
00:16:59.660 They just
00:17:00.300 don't want
00:17:01.660 to expose
00:17:02.220 that
00:17:02.760 because
00:17:03.400 it's too
00:17:04.220 hot
00:17:06.780 a wire
00:17:07.480 to touch.
00:17:08.240 they realize
00:17:09.900 that if
00:17:10.280 the population
00:17:11.020 at large
00:17:11.900 understood
00:17:12.660 that hey,
00:17:14.800 you know,
00:17:16.000 we're dealing
00:17:16.820 in planned
00:17:17.440 societies.
00:17:18.320 This is what
00:17:18.840 all this
00:17:19.340 propaganda
00:17:20.120 and social
00:17:20.800 science
00:17:21.460 and education
00:17:22.340 and government
00:17:23.480 is about
00:17:24.240 is to
00:17:25.880 how to
00:17:26.240 plan
00:17:26.760 society
00:17:27.540 so that
00:17:28.120 everything
00:17:28.760 is organized
00:17:29.640 and everybody
00:17:30.620 fits into
00:17:31.280 a slot.
00:17:32.580 If that
00:17:32.860 becomes
00:17:33.400 really
00:17:33.740 public
00:17:34.180 knowledge
00:17:34.800 then people
00:17:35.680 are going
00:17:35.960 to rebel
00:17:36.420 so we
00:17:36.860 have to
00:17:37.180 conceal
00:17:37.640 that
00:17:37.940 assumption
00:17:38.360 behind
00:17:38.920 all of
00:17:39.820 this
00:17:40.060 stuff
00:17:40.600 that we
00:17:40.900 put out
00:17:41.380 there.
00:17:42.560 But that's
00:17:43.040 the world
00:17:43.500 that we're
00:17:43.840 living in
00:17:44.360 now.
00:17:44.800 The people
00:17:45.160 that run
00:17:45.600 things
00:17:46.040 don't even
00:17:46.600 bother
00:17:46.980 to think
00:17:47.460 about this
00:17:48.000 anymore.
00:17:49.460 They're just
00:17:50.000 working off
00:17:51.160 of the
00:17:51.440 assumption
00:17:51.900 that it's
00:17:53.660 all about
00:17:54.400 which kind
00:17:55.320 of a planned
00:17:55.900 society
00:17:56.500 is better,
00:17:57.800 more efficient
00:17:58.420 than another
00:17:59.040 kind.
00:17:59.980 And that's
00:18:00.480 all they're
00:18:00.980 concerned about.
00:18:02.120 Have you
00:18:02.720 heard about
00:18:03.060 the planned
00:18:03.620 quote-unquote
00:18:04.240 utopian
00:18:04.920 socialist
00:18:05.780 eco-future
00:18:06.980 city
00:18:07.360 called
00:18:07.920 Owenstown
00:18:08.660 in Scotland
00:18:09.180 that the
00:18:09.720 Mondragon
00:18:09.960 Corporation
00:18:10.500 is trying
00:18:10.880 to build?
00:18:12.120 No,
00:18:12.600 I haven't.
00:18:13.120 I've just
00:18:13.480 gotten a little
00:18:14.000 tidbit,
00:18:14.600 so tell me
00:18:15.080 about this.
00:18:15.600 It's very
00:18:16.160 creepy.
00:18:16.680 It's basically
00:18:17.180 based on the
00:18:17.920 worker-owned
00:18:18.900 co-op in
00:18:19.680 Mondragon,
00:18:20.300 Spain.
00:18:20.680 There's some
00:18:20.940 great videos
00:18:21.460 you can watch
00:18:21.900 about it,
00:18:22.240 but it's
00:18:22.460 very creepy.
00:18:23.780 Everything is
00:18:24.260 fair and
00:18:24.760 everything is
00:18:25.200 owned together.
00:18:26.380 No one has
00:18:26.780 more than
00:18:27.160 you,
00:18:27.680 and it feels
00:18:28.180 completely
00:18:28.600 contrived.
00:18:29.600 It's not
00:18:29.840 organic.
00:18:30.260 Like you
00:18:30.720 said,
00:18:31.080 it's a
00:18:31.960 set-up
00:18:33.100 planned
00:18:33.720 community,
00:18:34.840 and everyone's
00:18:35.460 got their
00:18:35.780 little peg
00:18:36.340 that they
00:18:36.680 fit into.
00:18:37.700 Everyone's
00:18:38.140 got their
00:18:38.420 little place,
00:18:39.060 and it looks
00:18:39.380 like the
00:18:39.720 neighbor's
00:18:40.100 place.
00:18:41.080 It's like
00:18:41.440 you can't
00:18:42.000 even scratch 1.00
00:18:42.400 your butt 0.99
00:18:42.680 without going 1.00
00:18:43.120 through the
00:18:43.400 community
00:18:43.680 first.
00:18:44.900 Oh,
00:18:45.180 wow.
00:18:46.160 And how
00:18:47.080 do they
00:18:47.360 plan to
00:18:47.940 fill this
00:18:48.500 city?
00:18:49.220 You know?
00:18:50.420 They're trying
00:18:51.060 to say that
00:18:51.440 they're trying
00:18:51.760 to get people
00:18:52.500 to come live
00:18:53.160 there and be
00:18:53.700 a part working
00:18:54.520 in their
00:18:55.040 business that
00:18:55.700 they have
00:18:56.080 there,
00:18:56.460 some kind
00:18:57.260 of industry,
00:18:58.040 some sort
00:18:58.340 of factory.
00:18:59.840 So they're
00:19:00.440 trying to lure
00:19:01.020 people in.
00:19:02.120 Yeah,
00:19:02.280 you'll have to
00:19:02.620 check out some
00:19:03.040 videos about it.
00:19:03.780 Henrik showed
00:19:04.240 me some stuff,
00:19:04.900 and I was very
00:19:05.580 creeped out by it.
00:19:07.240 And is this
00:19:08.020 sort of like a
00:19:09.440 corporate government
00:19:10.320 partnership?
00:19:11.840 Yeah.
00:19:13.880 Wow.
00:19:14.940 Yeah,
00:19:15.260 I'm expecting
00:19:16.080 to see a lot
00:19:16.800 more of this.
00:19:18.080 A lot more
00:19:18.680 of this.
00:19:19.340 Yeah,
00:19:19.540 and it was
00:19:19.760 dubbed model
00:19:20.760 village for the
00:19:21.500 21st century.
00:19:22.720 Exactly.
00:19:23.660 And look how
00:19:24.300 well it's working,
00:19:25.340 and then it
00:19:25.700 becomes publicized,
00:19:26.940 and let's
00:19:27.360 start some
00:19:27.900 more of
00:19:28.380 these.
00:19:29.740 And,
00:19:30.040 you know,
00:19:30.280 the social
00:19:30.720 scientists will
00:19:31.620 be like
00:19:32.020 vultures,
00:19:32.760 you know,
00:19:33.060 feeding off
00:19:33.760 of this to
00:19:34.820 publish studies
00:19:35.580 and reports,
00:19:36.660 and there'll
00:19:37.380 be glowing
00:19:37.880 articles in
00:19:38.640 the New York
00:19:39.100 Times,
00:19:40.000 and,
00:19:40.400 you know,
00:19:41.700 you're going
00:19:41.960 to find this
00:19:42.640 whole idea
00:19:43.300 spreading for
00:19:44.220 sure,
00:19:44.940 because these
00:19:46.540 are like,
00:19:47.180 you know,
00:19:48.500 beacons of
00:19:49.620 collectivism that
00:19:51.540 will be hailed
00:19:53.360 as the new
00:19:54.380 way of living.
00:19:56.480 And then if
00:19:57.740 you want more,
00:19:58.740 or if you want
00:19:59.060 to go outside
00:19:59.660 of that,
00:20:00.020 maybe you want
00:20:00.420 to paint your
00:20:00.920 place a little
00:20:01.440 different color,
00:20:02.440 you get looked
00:20:03.300 at and judged,
00:20:04.780 that's not
00:20:05.340 freedom to me.
00:20:07.240 Right,
00:20:07.740 exactly.
00:20:08.500 Peer pressure
00:20:09.220 of everybody
00:20:09.980 saying,
00:20:10.740 this is not
00:20:11.760 the right thing,
00:20:12.400 you can't do
00:20:13.060 this.
00:20:13.740 What are you
00:20:14.200 complaining about,
00:20:14.860 Lana?
00:20:15.020 You have what
00:20:15.500 you need.
00:20:15.860 You have food,
00:20:16.520 you have shelter, 1.00
00:20:17.200 just shut up, 1.00
00:20:18.100 you know, 1.00
00:20:19.080 do your job.
00:20:20.560 Exactly,
00:20:21.420 exactly.
00:20:22.060 That's the whole
00:20:23.080 message.
00:20:23.820 They also seem
00:20:24.440 to hide behind
00:20:25.160 the,
00:20:26.020 we're a
00:20:26.420 sustainable
00:20:26.920 community.
00:20:28.120 You notice
00:20:28.480 that?
00:20:29.740 Yeah,
00:20:30.200 the sustainability
00:20:30.880 is always the,
00:20:32.500 you know,
00:20:33.500 the rationalization
00:20:34.440 behind this.
00:20:35.760 You see,
00:20:36.220 we're not harming
00:20:37.080 the environment.
00:20:38.540 Everybody else
00:20:39.240 is,
00:20:39.620 but we're not
00:20:40.280 because,
00:20:41.460 you know,
00:20:42.020 we recycle
00:20:42.760 everything from
00:20:43.920 paper to
00:20:44.700 people's kidneys
00:20:45.600 to whatever
00:20:46.540 there is here,
00:20:47.640 we can recycle
00:20:48.420 it and use it
00:20:49.040 again and
00:20:50.700 so therefore
00:20:51.760 this is good
00:20:53.140 for the planet.
00:20:54.560 It feeds
00:20:54.940 into the radical
00:20:55.720 environmental movement
00:20:57.020 which is really
00:20:57.980 at the top
00:20:58.660 all about
00:20:59.440 depopulation
00:21:01.260 and control
00:21:02.980 of society
00:21:03.820 and also
00:21:05.020 the destruction
00:21:05.780 of industrial
00:21:06.660 society
00:21:07.360 by laying
00:21:08.800 on,
00:21:09.320 you know,
00:21:10.360 just intolerable
00:21:11.520 taxes for
00:21:12.620 producing anything
00:21:13.660 and intolerable
00:21:15.060 red tape
00:21:15.780 for producing
00:21:17.100 anything so
00:21:17.940 that eventually
00:21:18.700 the hope
00:21:20.600 of these
00:21:20.980 people
00:21:21.420 and their
00:21:21.820 objective
00:21:22.280 is that
00:21:23.180 more and
00:21:23.720 more
00:21:24.060 businesses
00:21:24.920 become
00:21:25.720 government
00:21:27.780 controlled,
00:21:28.600 de facto
00:21:29.040 government
00:21:29.560 controlled
00:21:30.060 businesses.
00:21:30.860 You know,
00:21:31.020 the government
00:21:31.440 is really
00:21:31.920 your partner
00:21:32.580 because you're
00:21:33.660 paying exorbitant
00:21:34.860 taxes,
00:21:36.040 you're involved
00:21:36.640 in red tape
00:21:37.520 up to the hilt,
00:21:38.820 there are many
00:21:39.340 things that you're
00:21:40.000 not allowed to do
00:21:41.020 and so really,
00:21:42.700 you know,
00:21:43.120 it's like you're
00:21:43.700 a little government
00:21:44.340 agency
00:21:44.920 and if you
00:21:46.820 make too
00:21:47.220 much money
00:21:47.880 then you
00:21:48.820 can be taxed
00:21:49.640 more,
00:21:49.940 you will be
00:21:50.420 taxed more
00:21:51.020 to bring you
00:21:51.480 down to the
00:21:51.920 level of
00:21:52.300 everybody else
00:21:53.080 under the
00:21:54.020 fiction that
00:21:55.100 your taxes
00:21:55.780 are going to
00:21:56.460 make a better
00:21:56.880 world and to
00:21:57.780 bring the
00:21:58.920 people who are
00:21:59.800 suffering up to
00:22:00.880 the level of
00:22:01.460 everybody else.
00:22:02.680 But this is a
00:22:03.260 gigantic myth.
00:22:04.880 I mean,
00:22:05.100 if you look at
00:22:05.720 the,
00:22:06.260 God knows how
00:22:06.760 many billions
00:22:07.520 and billions
00:22:08.160 and maybe
00:22:08.780 trillions of
00:22:09.520 dollars have
00:22:10.220 supposedly gone
00:22:11.420 from federal
00:22:12.940 and state
00:22:13.400 governments in
00:22:14.180 the United
00:22:15.060 States into
00:22:16.160 inner cities
00:22:17.500 which are
00:22:18.180 wracked with
00:22:18.720 poverty and
00:22:19.420 drugs and
00:22:19.920 crime over
00:22:21.180 the last,
00:22:21.980 let's say,
00:22:23.040 say 45 to
00:22:25.100 50 years
00:22:26.020 and then
00:22:27.520 look at the
00:22:28.060 results,
00:22:29.220 it's an
00:22:30.560 absolute
00:22:30.980 catastrophe.
00:22:32.460 Things have
00:22:32.900 only gotten
00:22:33.440 worse,
00:22:34.240 much,
00:22:34.660 much worse.
00:22:36.300 And so if
00:22:36.860 that's where
00:22:37.520 the money is
00:22:38.400 going that
00:22:39.840 comes from
00:22:40.880 entrepreneurs
00:22:42.480 being taxed
00:22:43.460 much more
00:22:43.940 heavily,
00:22:45.140 it's a
00:22:45.400 complete and
00:22:46.180 total failure
00:22:47.100 in the
00:22:48.460 negative realm
00:22:50.540 under zero.
00:22:52.340 And you can
00:22:52.700 watch these
00:22:53.300 programs all
00:22:54.040 over the
00:22:54.380 world.
00:22:54.940 I mean,
00:22:55.320 there is no
00:22:56.600 real intention
00:22:57.580 to raise the
00:22:58.500 level of
00:22:59.880 standard of
00:23:01.120 living.
00:23:02.580 So that's
00:23:03.100 also a
00:23:03.760 hoax.
00:23:04.880 So the
00:23:06.040 collectivist
00:23:06.780 motto,
00:23:07.600 you know,
00:23:07.820 we're all in
00:23:08.320 this together,
00:23:09.220 that's already
00:23:10.280 a hoax.
00:23:10.880 as far as
00:23:11.380 the individual
00:23:11.820 goes,
00:23:12.320 because it's
00:23:12.820 attempting to
00:23:13.400 eradicate the
00:23:14.060 individual.
00:23:14.600 And then when
00:23:14.980 you look at
00:23:15.360 the actual
00:23:15.840 results of
00:23:16.540 these programs,
00:23:18.080 say in the
00:23:18.600 third world,
00:23:19.680 you're astonished
00:23:20.440 to find that
00:23:21.180 after all
00:23:21.700 these years
00:23:22.260 and all
00:23:22.620 these studies
00:23:23.180 have been
00:23:23.560 written that
00:23:24.100 show that
00:23:25.540 chronic disease
00:23:26.600 in the third
00:23:27.120 world is
00:23:27.580 basically caused
00:23:28.440 by contaminated
00:23:29.200 water supplies
00:23:30.520 and lack of
00:23:32.160 basic sanitation,
00:23:33.520 overcrowding,
00:23:35.360 as well as
00:23:36.360 the dangerous
00:23:37.380 effects of
00:23:38.140 vaccines and
00:23:39.120 toxic
00:23:39.640 pharmaceuticals
00:23:40.740 to add
00:23:41.480 into the
00:23:41.880 mix,
00:23:42.280 lack of
00:23:42.740 basic
00:23:43.100 nutrition,
00:23:45.240 and land
00:23:46.060 stolen by
00:23:46.960 corporations
00:23:47.660 from the
00:23:48.240 people who
00:23:48.720 live there
00:23:49.320 with the
00:23:50.620 aid of their
00:23:51.140 local governments,
00:23:52.560 all of this
00:23:53.680 is very well
00:23:54.340 known.
00:23:54.900 And the
00:23:55.060 means to
00:23:55.640 fix it are 0.90
00:23:56.860 not that
00:23:57.280 expensive and
00:23:57.980 certainly not
00:23:58.520 that difficult.
00:24:00.020 But yet it
00:24:00.580 hasn't happened.
00:24:01.880 It's never
00:24:02.360 happened.
00:24:02.820 you don't
00:24:04.000 see corporations
00:24:05.100 going in
00:24:05.800 there into
00:24:06.980 some part
00:24:08.700 of an
00:24:09.560 African country
00:24:10.440 and saying
00:24:11.000 look, for
00:24:12.320 $12 million
00:24:13.560 we can
00:24:15.520 decontaminate
00:24:16.680 65 to 70
00:24:18.540 percent of
00:24:19.060 your water
00:24:19.460 supply.
00:24:20.940 It's easy.
00:24:22.040 We have the
00:24:22.480 technology.
00:24:24.020 That's all
00:24:24.460 it'll take.
00:24:25.980 And somehow
00:24:26.440 it never
00:24:27.120 happens.
00:24:27.560 So the
00:24:31.280 result of
00:24:32.020 all of this
00:24:32.640 is horrific
00:24:33.400 along with
00:24:34.140 the fakery
00:24:36.440 of the
00:24:37.100 ideals to
00:24:38.180 begin with.
00:24:39.500 But yet
00:24:39.720 people think,
00:24:40.700 oh this is a
00:24:41.260 product of
00:24:41.760 capitalism or
00:24:42.820 the free
00:24:43.220 market.
00:24:43.900 But they
00:24:44.400 don't understand
00:24:44.920 that when a
00:24:45.320 government is
00:24:45.840 in bed with
00:24:46.420 companies and
00:24:47.040 telling them
00:24:47.440 what to do,
00:24:47.940 this is not
00:24:48.420 free market.
00:24:49.300 This is not
00:24:49.920 capitalism.
00:24:52.380 Yeah, that
00:24:53.260 is another
00:24:53.860 thing that is
00:24:54.580 becoming
00:24:55.140 completely
00:24:56.500 twisted.
00:24:57.560 Now, you
00:25:00.100 see people
00:25:00.940 who seem
00:25:02.300 to be
00:25:02.600 otherwise
00:25:03.040 intelligent
00:25:03.700 just using
00:25:04.560 the word
00:25:04.980 capitalism at
00:25:06.060 random as
00:25:07.760 a synonym
00:25:08.300 for destruction,
00:25:12.600 you know,
00:25:12.860 the hatred
00:25:13.380 of the few
00:25:14.420 for the many,
00:25:16.680 the overwhelming
00:25:19.180 attempt to
00:25:20.060 dominate the
00:25:21.000 many by the
00:25:22.000 few, crime,
00:25:24.480 etc., etc.,
00:25:25.200 etc., when
00:25:25.980 by and
00:25:27.560 large,
00:25:28.120 what capitalism
00:25:29.180 really means
00:25:30.040 is the free
00:25:30.840 market if one
00:25:31.700 existed anywhere
00:25:33.860 where you could
00:25:34.940 have people
00:25:35.640 developing and
00:25:37.000 selling products
00:25:38.240 completely unhindered
00:25:39.900 by the government
00:25:40.620 and untortured
00:25:42.480 by the government.
00:25:44.320 And that's a
00:25:45.480 good thing.
00:25:46.420 It's always a
00:25:47.140 good thing.
00:25:47.600 but yet,
00:25:50.140 no,
00:25:51.360 this is now
00:25:52.120 being, you
00:25:52.960 know,
00:25:53.520 heralded as
00:25:54.460 sinful behavior
00:25:56.740 that has to
00:25:57.440 stop.
00:25:59.820 And, you
00:26:00.440 know, I would
00:26:00.900 say along with
00:26:01.700 that,
00:26:02.580 especially,
00:26:04.760 well, I've
00:26:05.320 been told about
00:26:06.080 this,
00:26:07.500 let's see,
00:26:08.040 I was on a
00:26:08.560 radio program,
00:26:09.440 I think,
00:26:09.840 from Norway.
00:26:10.840 the number
00:26:15.080 of people
00:26:15.860 throughout the
00:26:16.720 country that
00:26:17.240 actually work
00:26:18.000 for one form
00:26:18.800 of the government
00:26:19.320 or another.
00:26:21.180 And in the
00:26:21.680 United States,
00:26:22.540 this number
00:26:22.980 keeps advancing
00:26:23.840 all the time.
00:26:25.420 If you look at
00:26:26.320 the number of
00:26:26.800 people who
00:26:27.260 are working
00:26:27.720 for some
00:26:28.240 form of
00:26:28.860 local or
00:26:30.720 state or
00:26:31.520 federal government
00:26:32.340 or the
00:26:33.000 military or
00:26:33.720 the police,
00:26:35.040 some agency
00:26:35.820 of the
00:26:36.180 government
00:26:36.480 somewhere,
00:26:37.160 that number
00:26:39.820 the last
00:26:40.520 time I
00:26:40.980 tried to
00:26:41.560 calculate it
00:26:42.340 turned out
00:26:42.900 to be
00:26:43.260 something on
00:26:43.920 the order
00:26:44.320 of one
00:26:44.680 out of
00:26:44.980 every ten
00:26:45.560 people.
00:26:47.820 So you
00:26:48.620 know where
00:26:49.140 their sympathies
00:26:50.120 lie because
00:26:51.420 that's where
00:26:51.860 their paycheck
00:26:52.380 is.
00:26:53.820 So whatever
00:26:54.220 the government
00:26:54.760 wants,
00:26:55.440 these people
00:26:55.900 are going to
00:26:56.200 go along
00:26:56.680 with and
00:26:57.160 they have
00:26:57.620 no background
00:26:58.320 or experience
00:26:59.240 or feeling
00:27:02.620 of victory
00:27:03.480 from having
00:27:04.820 done exactly
00:27:05.760 in their lives
00:27:06.400 what they
00:27:06.720 wanted to
00:27:07.360 do and
00:27:08.520 making it
00:27:09.140 a success.
00:27:10.960 So naturally
00:27:11.540 they're going
00:27:11.880 to be very
00:27:12.260 suspicious of
00:27:13.040 that especially
00:27:13.620 because it's
00:27:14.360 against everything
00:27:15.200 that their
00:27:15.800 employer,
00:27:17.820 in this case
00:27:18.260 the government,
00:27:18.860 stands for.
00:27:20.860 And so you're
00:27:21.280 going to get
00:27:21.620 an increasing,
00:27:22.800 you're already
00:27:23.240 getting it,
00:27:24.560 and especially
00:27:25.060 under Obama
00:27:25.840 now but it's
00:27:26.820 been all
00:27:28.280 modern presidents.
00:27:30.900 More and more
00:27:31.940 government,
00:27:32.600 more and more
00:27:32.980 people working
00:27:33.800 for government,
00:27:34.880 more and more
00:27:35.360 people owing
00:27:36.460 their lives
00:27:37.360 and their
00:27:37.760 survival to
00:27:38.480 government.
00:27:40.120 And so to
00:27:41.060 them,
00:27:42.480 collectivism
00:27:43.320 is
00:27:44.780 absolute
00:27:47.200 common sense
00:27:48.300 on the level
00:27:49.040 of what it
00:27:50.140 takes for them
00:27:50.860 to survive
00:27:51.700 in the world.
00:27:53.720 Well then,
00:27:54.480 aren't these
00:27:54.900 people that
00:27:55.480 can't hack it
00:27:56.200 on their own?
00:27:57.040 Kind of like
00:27:57.600 children?
00:27:58.320 So they want
00:27:58.840 to go run
00:27:59.300 to daddy
00:27:59.720 to take care
00:28:00.300 of them?
00:28:00.580 They want to
00:28:00.820 have that
00:28:01.100 safety net
00:28:01.700 there all the
00:28:02.160 time?
00:28:03.240 You bet.
00:28:03.840 So they
00:28:04.200 actually fear
00:28:05.040 the idea
00:28:05.620 of freedom
00:28:06.440 and a free
00:28:07.080 society?
00:28:08.000 Because they
00:28:08.320 know in
00:28:08.600 their heart
00:28:08.880 of hearts
00:28:09.260 that they
00:28:09.660 can't really
00:28:10.580 hack it?
00:28:12.260 That's right.
00:28:14.740 So now,
00:28:15.720 if you want
00:28:16.120 to talk
00:28:16.500 about a
00:28:17.060 sociological
00:28:18.700 problem,
00:28:19.880 and here's
00:28:20.280 another area
00:28:21.840 that sociologists
00:28:22.840 don't dare to
00:28:24.200 tread in,
00:28:24.660 it would
00:28:25.620 be,
00:28:26.880 what is
00:28:27.720 the profile
00:28:28.400 of people
00:28:28.860 who work
00:28:29.220 for government?
00:28:30.820 That's a
00:28:31.220 group you
00:28:31.600 could study
00:28:32.100 and come
00:28:33.720 up with
00:28:33.980 some very
00:28:34.420 interesting
00:28:34.940 factors.
00:28:36.920 Way back
00:28:37.700 in 1964,
00:28:40.200 I got a
00:28:41.600 job for a
00:28:42.320 few months
00:28:42.860 as a social
00:28:44.240 worker in
00:28:45.720 Los Angeles.
00:28:47.340 I think it
00:28:47.780 was the
00:28:48.200 county of
00:28:48.660 Los Angeles,
00:28:49.340 and I
00:28:49.480 worked out
00:28:49.840 of a big
00:28:50.280 office downtown.
00:28:53.140 And I
00:28:54.660 two things
00:28:55.300 that I
00:28:55.600 remember very
00:28:56.220 much about
00:28:56.680 that is,
00:28:57.260 one,
00:28:58.240 I was sent
00:28:58.800 out to
00:28:59.280 interview a
00:29:00.220 woman.
00:29:00.600 It was a
00:29:00.900 routine
00:29:01.300 interview to
00:29:02.100 renew her
00:29:03.140 welfare payments.
00:29:05.880 She had,
00:29:06.500 I think,
00:29:06.780 two children,
00:29:08.140 and the
00:29:08.620 program was
00:29:09.180 called Aid
00:29:09.780 to Families
00:29:10.640 with Dependent
00:29:11.340 Children.
00:29:11.840 Well,
00:29:12.000 in her case,
00:29:13.380 she was the
00:29:13.860 only parent.
00:29:15.820 And so
00:29:16.120 during the
00:29:16.660 interview,
00:29:17.100 because I
00:29:17.480 was completely
00:29:18.040 naive and
00:29:18.900 just was
00:29:19.760 kind of
00:29:20.080 winging the
00:29:20.560 whole thing,
00:29:21.720 I said,
00:29:22.760 do you
00:29:23.760 think there's
00:29:24.500 ever going
00:29:25.480 to be a
00:29:25.800 prospect that
00:29:26.660 you'll find
00:29:28.180 a job?
00:29:30.160 And she
00:29:30.780 looked at me
00:29:31.340 like I was
00:29:31.820 totally insane,
00:29:34.260 completely and
00:29:35.340 utterly insane.
00:29:37.440 This was
00:29:38.060 1964.
00:29:41.060 And so
00:29:42.220 I was,
00:29:43.160 you know,
00:29:43.980 I was as
00:29:44.500 shocked as
00:29:44.980 she was by
00:29:46.140 her reaction.
00:29:47.360 It's like,
00:29:47.940 well,
00:29:48.220 I guess,
00:29:49.280 you know,
00:29:49.660 this is what
00:29:50.140 we're dealing
00:29:50.580 with here.
00:29:51.960 This is a
00:29:52.740 permanent
00:29:53.180 underclass.
00:29:54.500 And there
00:29:55.260 is no
00:29:55.740 way that
00:29:56.540 this is
00:29:56.940 going to
00:29:57.620 shrink.
00:29:58.920 It's only
00:29:59.700 going to
00:30:00.040 get bigger
00:30:00.520 and more
00:30:01.000 overwhelming.
00:30:03.600 And by
00:30:03.860 the way,
00:30:04.320 if you
00:30:04.680 then added
00:30:05.500 into the
00:30:06.180 number of
00:30:06.560 people who
00:30:06.980 work for
00:30:07.520 the government
00:30:07.900 in some
00:30:08.220 capacity,
00:30:09.360 all the
00:30:09.840 people who
00:30:10.320 are receiving
00:30:10.960 some form
00:30:11.880 of government
00:30:12.480 subsidy,
00:30:15.040 now you're
00:30:15.940 talking about
00:30:16.780 maybe one
00:30:17.620 out of four
00:30:18.540 or three
00:30:19.320 Americans.
00:30:19.920 because we've
00:30:21.860 got 50
00:30:22.340 million people
00:30:22.940 on food
00:30:23.420 stamps and
00:30:25.140 who knows
00:30:25.600 how many
00:30:25.960 other people
00:30:26.560 on different
00:30:27.240 types of
00:30:28.220 government
00:30:29.620 subsidy.
00:30:31.580 And the
00:30:31.760 other thing
00:30:32.100 that happened
00:30:32.540 was I sat
00:30:33.220 in on a
00:30:33.620 meeting one
00:30:34.140 day of
00:30:35.560 case workers
00:30:36.380 at this
00:30:38.900 welfare,
00:30:39.720 county welfare
00:30:40.360 agency.
00:30:41.740 And they
00:30:42.000 were talking
00:30:42.620 about,
00:30:44.260 I think it
00:30:45.520 was the
00:30:45.840 1964 election
00:30:47.540 and how
00:30:48.360 LBJ had
00:30:51.200 to win
00:30:51.660 because he
00:30:52.100 was running
00:30:52.440 against
00:30:52.800 gold water
00:30:53.540 and so
00:30:53.900 forth and
00:30:54.320 so on.
00:30:56.020 And I
00:30:58.320 just looked
00:30:58.760 at the faces
00:30:59.300 of the
00:30:59.640 people in
00:31:00.060 the room.
00:31:02.800 And it
00:31:03.460 was a
00:31:04.080 chilling
00:31:04.880 tale that
00:31:05.820 those
00:31:06.280 expressions
00:31:06.900 told.
00:31:07.600 It was
00:31:07.840 like these
00:31:09.440 case workers
00:31:10.340 were as
00:31:10.880 dedicated as
00:31:11.940 the recipients
00:31:12.560 were to
00:31:14.500 perpetuating
00:31:15.440 the system
00:31:16.120 forever
00:31:17.380 without end.
00:31:19.820 That nobody
00:31:20.340 was the
00:31:20.800 slightest bit
00:31:21.540 interested in
00:31:22.460 getting anybody
00:31:23.300 off of
00:31:23.940 welfare really.
00:31:26.360 That that
00:31:26.680 was just,
00:31:28.820 you know,
00:31:29.100 unless it
00:31:29.660 was mandated
00:31:30.400 by law
00:31:31.360 that,
00:31:31.800 you know,
00:31:32.040 after whatever
00:31:32.860 four or five
00:31:33.520 years the
00:31:34.900 payments would
00:31:35.440 stop.
00:31:36.880 As far as
00:31:37.640 the people in
00:31:38.120 the room
00:31:38.440 were concerned,
00:31:39.280 this was
00:31:39.940 forever.
00:31:41.840 And they
00:31:42.200 were dedicated
00:31:42.880 to it and
00:31:43.940 this is where
00:31:44.500 they were going
00:31:44.820 to spend the
00:31:45.260 rest of their
00:31:45.700 lives doing
00:31:46.420 this.
00:31:48.160 So that's,
00:31:50.120 you know,
00:31:50.660 35,
00:31:52.680 almost 50
00:31:53.640 years ago
00:31:54.100 now.
00:31:55.540 And so
00:31:56.400 you can see
00:31:58.560 what's happened
00:31:59.220 since then.
00:32:00.160 And this is a
00:32:01.040 deliberate attempt
00:32:02.000 to completely
00:32:04.540 really outlaw
00:32:06.240 the individual
00:32:06.940 as a
00:32:08.040 significant
00:32:08.500 force,
00:32:09.880 most of all
00:32:11.360 for himself
00:32:12.120 or herself
00:32:12.820 in the
00:32:14.260 world.
00:32:15.260 That is the
00:32:16.340 objective.
00:32:17.260 If you can
00:32:17.860 erase and
00:32:18.480 eradicate the 0.88
00:32:19.300 individual so
00:32:20.760 that he or
00:32:21.280 she no longer
00:32:22.060 thinks of
00:32:22.640 himself as
00:32:23.320 an independent
00:32:24.200 individual with
00:32:25.720 his own
00:32:26.160 thoughts,
00:32:26.700 ideas,
00:32:27.380 dreams,
00:32:28.020 visions,
00:32:28.980 and determination
00:32:30.240 to achieve
00:32:31.260 something in
00:32:31.980 life,
00:32:32.860 then the
00:32:34.800 battle is
00:32:35.260 over.
00:32:36.260 Then the
00:32:36.940 whole ship
00:32:37.460 sinks.
00:32:37.940 everything is
00:32:39.340 underwater.
00:32:40.500 Then the
00:32:41.360 entire society
00:32:42.500 is now run
00:32:43.480 by government
00:32:45.840 command from
00:32:47.460 the top,
00:32:48.400 of course,
00:32:49.380 in partnership
00:32:49.960 with corporations
00:32:50.860 and other,
00:32:51.500 you know,
00:32:53.120 heavy hitter
00:32:53.800 players like
00:32:54.840 Council on
00:32:55.440 Foreign Relations,
00:32:56.420 Trilateral
00:32:56.840 Commission,
00:32:57.540 et cetera,
00:32:57.920 et cetera.
00:32:59.000 And this is
00:32:59.900 what we see
00:33:00.400 happening in
00:33:01.000 front of our
00:33:01.440 eyes.
00:33:02.380 I notice,
00:33:03.260 too,
00:33:03.380 people always
00:33:03.980 want to
00:33:04.340 point the
00:33:04.980 fingers at
00:33:05.460 it's those
00:33:05.940 evil corporations.
00:33:07.360 You know,
00:33:07.660 they've stolen
00:33:08.340 our money.
00:33:08.980 The only way
00:33:09.360 they've stolen
00:33:09.780 your money
00:33:10.220 is through
00:33:10.740 taxes.
00:33:11.960 So you
00:33:12.540 should be
00:33:12.820 pointing the
00:33:13.380 finger at
00:33:13.900 government.
00:33:14.720 And if you
00:33:15.060 don't like
00:33:15.360 these corporations,
00:33:16.000 you don't
00:33:16.260 have to buy
00:33:16.800 what they're
00:33:17.220 selling.
00:33:17.640 They're not
00:33:17.900 coming to
00:33:18.260 your house
00:33:18.620 putting a
00:33:19.040 gun to 1.00
00:33:19.260 your head 1.00
00:33:19.520 and saying,
00:33:20.120 buy our
00:33:20.500 cell phone,
00:33:21.320 you know?
00:33:23.240 Yeah,
00:33:23.700 I have some
00:33:24.140 personal experience
00:33:25.100 with this
00:33:25.520 because in
00:33:26.040 1995 or so,
00:33:28.800 I started
00:33:29.480 something called
00:33:31.260 the Great
00:33:31.720 Boycott of
00:33:33.760 the eight
00:33:34.240 largest
00:33:34.800 corporations
00:33:36.300 in the
00:33:36.680 world that
00:33:37.280 produce
00:33:38.100 pesticides,
00:33:40.480 genetically
00:33:40.820 engineered
00:33:41.280 food,
00:33:42.300 and
00:33:42.860 pharmaceutical
00:33:43.340 drugs.
00:33:44.620 I said,
00:33:45.040 well,
00:33:45.340 you know,
00:33:45.600 let's boycott
00:33:46.140 these corporations.
00:33:47.220 And so I
00:33:47.940 wrote up this
00:33:50.320 long white
00:33:51.020 paper and
00:33:52.320 the original
00:33:52.760 name of it
00:33:53.260 was Revolt
00:33:53.800 Against the
00:33:54.280 Empire.
00:33:55.860 And it
00:33:56.040 was the
00:33:56.300 idea,
00:33:56.700 okay,
00:33:56.960 these
00:33:57.240 corporations 0.98
00:33:57.840 are evil
00:33:58.460 because they're
00:34:00.180 promoting poison
00:34:01.100 and they're
00:34:01.960 selling it and
00:34:03.060 nobody's stopping
00:34:03.940 them from
00:34:04.340 doing it.
00:34:04.800 So the
00:34:06.040 only alternative
00:34:06.940 we have is to
00:34:07.840 boycott their
00:34:08.400 products.
00:34:08.820 So don't buy
00:34:09.540 these products,
00:34:10.420 period.
00:34:11.940 Well,
00:34:12.360 eventually it
00:34:13.060 turned into a
00:34:13.780 kind of an
00:34:14.300 educational seminar
00:34:16.260 because a lot
00:34:17.200 of people became
00:34:18.620 clued in on what
00:34:19.560 these corporations
00:34:20.180 were actually doing
00:34:21.080 it and I think it
00:34:21.840 spawned a number
00:34:22.700 of journalistic
00:34:24.920 efforts and maybe
00:34:26.060 some books and so
00:34:27.000 forth.
00:34:27.880 But the actual
00:34:29.020 participation in
00:34:30.260 the boycott,
00:34:31.500 people were just
00:34:33.520 unwilling to
00:34:36.160 acknowledge at
00:34:40.320 the root just
00:34:42.000 what you just
00:34:42.560 said.
00:34:43.340 Hey, if it's a
00:34:43.980 corporation and you
00:34:44.800 don't like what
00:34:45.300 they're selling,
00:34:45.880 don't buy it.
00:34:47.640 It's very simple.
00:34:48.800 people, but why
00:34:49.920 weren't these
00:34:50.520 people, the
00:34:51.640 general public or
00:34:53.200 some significant
00:34:54.400 fraction able to
00:34:55.660 see that equation
00:34:56.780 because they
00:34:58.140 weren't able to
00:34:58.900 see themselves as
00:34:59.860 individuals who
00:35:00.800 had a choice about
00:35:02.040 anything.
00:35:02.440 Yeah, they wait
00:35:03.460 for the FDA to
00:35:04.400 tell them it's
00:35:04.920 safe.
00:35:06.280 Exactly.
00:35:08.060 Exactly.
00:35:08.640 And if the FDA
00:35:09.460 didn't say this
00:35:12.120 is a threat to
00:35:12.900 you, then they
00:35:13.780 would just go
00:35:14.300 along because
00:35:15.860 that's what they
00:35:16.980 do.
00:35:17.300 They go along.
00:35:19.700 And of course,
00:35:20.560 the other side of
00:35:21.260 this coin is what
00:35:22.440 is the individual
00:35:23.580 when he or she
00:35:24.960 is independent,
00:35:26.100 free, can think
00:35:28.660 clearly about his
00:35:29.660 own aims and
00:35:30.820 objectives.
00:35:32.440 And has the
00:35:33.100 creative power to
00:35:34.040 make it happen.
00:35:36.140 That is what is
00:35:39.380 being lost in the
00:35:40.340 world, and that
00:35:41.080 has to be
00:35:41.940 regained.
00:35:44.960 I think it's
00:35:45.760 interesting, too,
00:35:46.260 that modern
00:35:46.680 collectivists, they
00:35:48.020 see a collectivist
00:35:49.880 society as some
00:35:50.580 kind of super
00:35:51.300 organism, some
00:35:52.240 supernatural entity
00:35:53.600 that's apart from
00:35:54.600 us, yet many of
00:35:55.660 them are atheists,
00:35:56.520 but then all of a
00:35:57.240 sudden it seems like
00:35:57.980 they're getting
00:35:58.360 metaphysical and
00:35:59.540 talking about
00:36:00.400 utopian philosophy
00:36:01.780 when it comes to
00:36:02.580 this particular
00:36:03.240 subject matter.
00:36:04.340 Why is that?
00:36:06.420 Yeah, that's a
00:36:07.680 key point.
00:36:09.180 It's a religion 0.67
00:36:10.180 for them because
00:36:11.000 they have nothing
00:36:11.900 to believe in.
00:36:13.820 I'm not saying
00:36:14.820 that you have to
00:36:15.520 have a religion,
00:36:16.660 but I am saying
00:36:17.740 that many people,
00:36:19.860 if they come to
00:36:21.000 the conclusion that
00:36:21.900 they have no
00:36:22.560 religious faith
00:36:23.280 themselves, will
00:36:24.920 look for it
00:36:25.840 somewhere else,
00:36:27.660 even though they
00:36:28.520 would never
00:36:28.900 acknowledge that's
00:36:29.780 what they're
00:36:30.080 doing.
00:36:31.500 And so they
00:36:31.960 want this
00:36:32.600 supernatural
00:36:33.360 rationalization.
00:36:36.340 It's not enough
00:36:37.160 even for them to
00:36:38.120 say, I'm a
00:36:39.560 socialist.
00:36:40.560 That's what I
00:36:41.140 believe in.
00:36:41.800 Society should be
00:36:42.600 planned and
00:36:43.140 structured and
00:36:43.700 this and that,
00:36:44.260 and this is why.
00:36:45.640 It's more like,
00:36:46.940 this is the
00:36:48.400 future.
00:36:49.300 This is utopia.
00:36:50.680 This is what
00:36:51.560 humanity has been
00:36:52.640 striving for for the
00:36:54.580 last 100,000 years,
00:36:56.420 and we're
00:36:56.820 finally going to
00:36:58.340 reach this
00:36:58.940 exalted state.
00:37:01.140 And yes, it is
00:37:01.820 very mystical and
00:37:02.880 they see it as
00:37:03.680 some sort of
00:37:04.600 spiritual union
00:37:06.920 of all souls,
00:37:09.300 you know,
00:37:09.760 minds, etc.,
00:37:11.280 etc.
00:37:11.780 And this is where
00:37:12.920 technocracy comes
00:37:14.900 in as well.
00:37:16.180 It's like the
00:37:16.940 big brain.
00:37:19.120 Yes, we'll be 0.68
00:37:19.760 able to hook you
00:37:20.540 up to a
00:37:21.640 computer that's
00:37:23.240 50 times or
00:37:24.240 5,000 times more
00:37:25.500 powerful in your
00:37:26.360 own brain,
00:37:27.280 works the same
00:37:28.320 way, and then
00:37:29.760 you will be
00:37:30.900 super empowered
00:37:33.480 and so will
00:37:35.740 everybody else.
00:37:37.540 And so we
00:37:38.080 could essentially
00:37:39.020 have one giant
00:37:42.020 brain that
00:37:42.620 everybody plugs
00:37:43.400 into.
00:37:45.420 And what they
00:37:46.440 sort of fail to
00:37:48.200 tell you is that
00:37:49.260 yeah, but in
00:37:49.980 that system,
00:37:51.400 everybody's going
00:37:52.820 to come to the
00:37:53.360 same conclusions
00:37:54.180 questions because
00:37:55.620 they're going to
00:37:56.000 be acting on the
00:37:56.800 same data and
00:37:58.700 the same processes
00:37:59.820 to derive answers
00:38:02.260 from that data.
00:38:03.900 So it's sort of
00:38:05.000 the smart version
00:38:06.320 of collectivism.
00:38:09.320 You know, this is
00:38:09.800 for the computer
00:38:10.500 geeks and the
00:38:11.440 techno freaks and
00:38:12.760 the people who,
00:38:14.760 you know, they're
00:38:15.360 looking for religion
00:38:16.220 too.
00:38:17.140 And they found it
00:38:18.420 in the machine.
00:38:19.060 And that's where
00:38:20.980 they're praying,
00:38:21.820 at that altar.
00:38:23.380 Oh, yes.
00:38:24.160 Now, you know, I
00:38:25.320 mean, Roy
00:38:25.760 Kurzweil, who's
00:38:27.120 the research
00:38:29.660 director for
00:38:30.420 Google now, but
00:38:31.340 he's been pounding
00:38:33.140 away as a thinker
00:38:34.880 on these issues
00:38:35.740 for years and
00:38:36.600 written a number
00:38:37.120 of books.
00:38:39.200 You know, he's
00:38:40.160 basically saying
00:38:41.100 that we will find
00:38:42.300 God eventually
00:38:44.960 through this.
00:38:45.800 when you can
00:38:47.280 hook up a human
00:38:48.060 brain to a
00:38:48.940 computer and
00:38:50.780 download into
00:38:52.020 that human
00:38:52.780 brain everything
00:38:53.500 that's in the
00:38:54.080 computer or
00:38:54.760 access it, then
00:38:57.060 we will have
00:38:57.620 reached a point
00:38:58.400 where enough
00:39:00.800 people are so
00:39:01.880 super intelligent
00:39:03.720 that God will
00:39:05.540 emerge as
00:39:06.640 something, whatever
00:39:07.560 it is, out of
00:39:09.380 the machine.
00:39:10.800 I mean, that's
00:39:11.420 how far he'll
00:39:12.160 go with this.
00:39:13.520 So this is
00:39:14.700 religion.
00:39:15.800 It's just, you
00:39:16.740 know, with a
00:39:17.040 different face, a
00:39:17.960 weird face.
00:39:19.640 It kind of
00:39:20.320 reminds me, too,
00:39:20.960 when you're
00:39:21.160 talking about
00:39:21.740 the Venus
00:39:23.340 Project.
00:39:23.980 Have you heard
00:39:24.280 about that?
00:39:26.040 No.
00:39:26.840 Well, okay,
00:39:27.640 Jacques Fresco, he
00:39:28.740 has this kind of
00:39:29.400 utopian resource-based
00:39:31.040 economy.
00:39:31.980 It's socialist with
00:39:33.620 a twist of machines,
00:39:34.880 basically.
00:39:35.340 No one would work.
00:39:36.060 Instead, machines
00:39:36.760 would do all the
00:39:37.240 jobs and everyone
00:39:38.420 will get yachts and
00:39:39.540 whatever they dream
00:39:40.340 of, you know, they
00:39:41.240 all get to share, but
00:39:42.660 machines will do all
00:39:43.540 the work.
00:39:43.900 And the question
00:39:45.700 is, well, who's
00:39:46.520 going to program
00:39:47.160 these machines, of
00:39:48.040 course?
00:39:49.480 Right.
00:39:50.440 Well, this was
00:39:51.360 Buckminster Fuller's
00:39:52.420 vision.
00:39:54.400 Utopia or
00:39:55.260 oblivion was maybe
00:39:56.620 the clearest
00:39:57.140 statement he ever
00:39:57.800 made about that.
00:39:59.520 Only he based it
00:40:00.880 on a kind of
00:40:02.100 necessity.
00:40:02.880 He said, look,
00:40:03.980 automation is
00:40:04.940 going to take
00:40:05.580 over in
00:40:06.960 production.
00:40:07.440 And that
00:40:09.440 means that
00:40:10.040 millions and
00:40:10.580 millions and
00:40:11.260 maybe more people
00:40:12.480 are going to be
00:40:12.860 thrown out of
00:40:13.360 jobs eventually and
00:40:14.400 what's going to
00:40:14.860 happen when that
00:40:15.540 happens.
00:40:16.980 And so he
00:40:17.520 argued for a
00:40:18.300 similar kind of
00:40:18.920 society in which
00:40:20.100 there would be a
00:40:22.620 stable platform of
00:40:24.440 everybody in the
00:40:25.980 world is given
00:40:27.480 the basic
00:40:29.100 necessities of
00:40:29.980 survival.
00:40:30.540 But again, the
00:40:34.400 fatal flaw or
00:40:35.520 one of them in
00:40:36.300 his system was
00:40:37.840 who is going to
00:40:39.420 run this show?
00:40:40.520 Yeah.
00:40:41.960 And the
00:40:43.520 government is
00:40:44.200 going to run
00:40:44.620 this show.
00:40:46.000 Some corporation
00:40:47.340 or two or three
00:40:48.400 is going to run
00:40:49.020 this show.
00:40:50.340 And the rest of
00:40:51.860 everybody just
00:40:52.700 trusts that this
00:40:53.820 is all going to
00:40:54.420 work out and
00:40:56.120 that there's
00:40:57.120 nothing sinister
00:40:58.240 or criminal
00:40:58.960 behind.
00:41:00.540 such a program.
00:41:01.700 There's always
00:41:02.380 something sinister
00:41:03.360 behind a program
00:41:04.320 like this.
00:41:06.560 And it's always
00:41:07.800 anti-individual.
00:41:09.140 It's always for
00:41:10.060 the collective.
00:41:12.920 This propaganda
00:41:14.100 element in
00:41:16.060 collectivism is
00:41:17.880 tremendously
00:41:19.160 crucial for
00:41:20.800 people to buy
00:41:21.620 into as far as
00:41:23.540 the controllers are
00:41:24.420 concerned because
00:41:25.340 if they don't,
00:41:28.600 then the whole
00:41:29.440 thing is going to
00:41:30.000 fall apart.
00:41:31.160 If there are
00:41:31.860 enough people
00:41:32.720 out there who
00:41:33.940 say, you know,
00:41:34.960 I see through
00:41:35.600 this, it's
00:41:36.040 completely insane.
00:41:38.160 I'm not my
00:41:39.340 neighbor.
00:41:41.960 My neighbor
00:41:42.900 isn't me.
00:41:44.580 I am not
00:41:45.420 everybody else.
00:41:48.340 Or if I can
00:41:49.840 on some level
00:41:51.660 merge with
00:41:52.360 everybody else,
00:41:53.060 I can unmerge
00:41:54.100 just as easily.
00:41:54.920 this is not
00:41:55.620 some final
00:41:56.460 hardwired
00:41:58.020 state which
00:42:00.120 when you
00:42:00.560 reach, it's
00:42:01.680 the end of
00:42:02.120 the line.
00:42:02.760 That's it.
00:42:05.300 And this
00:42:06.400 is why the
00:42:08.140 propaganda is
00:42:09.240 so important
00:42:09.960 because it's
00:42:13.520 the underpinning
00:42:14.360 of the whole
00:42:15.020 collectivist
00:42:15.960 model.
00:42:16.420 people have
00:42:17.880 to, on a
00:42:19.460 subconscious
00:42:19.960 level, and
00:42:21.540 through peer
00:42:22.100 pressure and
00:42:22.900 so forth, you
00:42:24.240 know, I
00:42:24.620 can't paint my
00:42:25.440 house the
00:42:25.880 color I want
00:42:26.480 to paint it.
00:42:26.980 Well, that's
00:42:27.340 good because I'm
00:42:29.600 now going along
00:42:31.240 with what
00:42:31.640 everybody else
00:42:32.420 thinks and I
00:42:33.100 have to in
00:42:34.320 order to preserve
00:42:35.120 this utopian
00:42:36.080 community or
00:42:37.420 whatever.
00:42:37.720 that's the
00:42:39.920 kind of
00:42:40.240 thinking that
00:42:40.880 has to work
00:42:41.700 in order for
00:42:43.060 this to
00:42:43.420 succeed, this
00:42:44.120 collectivist
00:42:44.780 planet, and
00:42:46.080 people have to
00:42:47.700 buy in.
00:42:48.580 They have to
00:42:49.040 accept it more
00:42:49.980 and more every
00:42:50.860 day.
00:42:53.220 And this is
00:42:53.700 why you get,
00:42:54.760 for example, the
00:42:55.540 aftermath in the
00:42:57.300 wake of all of
00:42:58.020 these mass
00:42:59.080 shootings.
00:43:00.900 We now have
00:43:02.020 to do something
00:43:02.800 about this.
00:43:03.560 All of us
00:43:04.240 have to do
00:43:05.100 something about
00:43:05.720 the fact that
00:43:06.900 some guy went
00:43:07.680 crazy and
00:43:08.480 opened up and 0.98
00:43:10.060 shot a whole 0.77
00:43:10.600 lot of people
00:43:11.220 or he didn't
00:43:13.400 but somebody
00:43:14.060 was sent in
00:43:14.660 there to
00:43:14.980 actually do
00:43:15.620 it and then
00:43:16.000 blame it on
00:43:16.480 him.
00:43:17.400 But in the
00:43:18.200 aftermath, either
00:43:18.940 way, it's
00:43:20.080 always this
00:43:20.700 sentiment about
00:43:21.580 we're all in
00:43:22.120 this together
00:43:22.700 and we have
00:43:24.000 to find a
00:43:24.580 better way and
00:43:25.400 now this
00:43:25.820 better way is
00:43:26.560 going to be
00:43:27.460 take guns away
00:43:30.060 from everybody
00:43:30.660 and then two,
00:43:32.600 make everybody
00:43:33.300 into a
00:43:35.120 psychiatric
00:43:35.460 patient,
00:43:36.220 basically.
00:43:36.660 everybody has
00:43:39.740 to be under
00:43:40.700 some care
00:43:41.580 of a mental
00:43:43.280 health professional,
00:43:44.680 get a diagnosis,
00:43:46.040 get drugs,
00:43:46.800 etc., etc.,
00:43:47.660 and that will
00:43:49.500 prevent this
00:43:50.340 kind of thing
00:43:50.860 from happening
00:43:51.420 again.
00:43:53.200 These things
00:43:54.020 are always
00:43:54.600 used and
00:43:56.880 as well,
00:43:57.740 you get the
00:43:58.460 sort of
00:43:59.140 subliminal text
00:44:00.240 here, which is
00:44:01.080 you see it was
00:44:02.260 the individual
00:44:02.860 who's the
00:44:03.380 bad guy,
00:44:04.340 the outsider,
00:44:05.440 the lone
00:44:05.780 shooter, 0.76
00:44:06.320 the criminal.
00:44:08.440 Any individual
00:44:09.440 is a criminal
00:44:10.140 basically,
00:44:10.900 is the sort
00:44:11.820 of, you
00:44:12.740 know, the
00:44:14.180 equation
00:44:14.680 that's laid
00:44:15.240 on people.
00:44:16.600 And this
00:44:17.240 would never
00:44:17.620 have happened
00:44:18.320 if we were
00:44:20.400 all in this
00:44:20.980 together.
00:44:21.940 You know,
00:44:22.680 never would have
00:44:23.320 happened.
00:44:23.980 And now we
00:44:24.740 have to do
00:44:25.220 something to
00:44:25.740 make sure that
00:44:26.420 we are in
00:44:27.080 this together
00:44:27.540 and we
00:44:28.420 have to do
00:44:28.860 all these
00:44:29.200 things,
00:44:29.900 you know.
00:44:30.900 Yeah, it's
00:44:31.340 the notion
00:44:31.640 that anything
00:44:32.160 society does
00:44:33.000 is right
00:44:33.320 because,
00:44:34.020 well, society
00:44:34.640 chose to do
00:44:35.280 it. 0.99
00:44:36.720 Ridiculous. 0.99
00:44:37.160 That's right. 0.99
00:44:37.900 As if we all
00:44:38.820 sat in some
00:44:39.580 gigantic stadium
00:44:40.540 and we all
00:44:41.180 voted, right?
00:44:42.160 Yeah.
00:44:42.480 And we all
00:44:43.040 knew what we
00:44:43.540 were voting
00:44:44.000 on.
00:44:44.940 Yeah, well,
00:44:46.020 this is what
00:44:46.500 society is doing
00:44:47.580 and therefore
00:44:48.120 it's a good
00:44:48.680 thing.
00:44:49.520 So if you
00:44:50.220 were to dare
00:44:50.980 to speak out
00:44:51.940 and say,
00:44:53.160 the welfare
00:44:55.060 system in
00:44:55.660 America has 0.83
00:44:56.280 destroyed millions
00:44:57.300 untold millions
00:44:58.240 of people
00:44:58.720 over the
00:44:59.120 years.
00:45:01.700 Nobody in
00:45:02.800 official circles
00:45:03.680 would give
00:45:04.240 you a 0.57
00:45:05.600 microsecond
00:45:06.240 of their
00:45:06.560 time.
00:45:08.080 It would
00:45:08.320 just be,
00:45:10.040 oh, here's 1.00
00:45:10.500 a lunatic, 0.99
00:45:11.260 okay, let's 0.99
00:45:12.060 go on to
00:45:12.540 the next
00:45:12.840 thing.
00:45:14.100 We don't
00:45:14.680 want to hear
00:45:15.160 about it,
00:45:15.660 we want to
00:45:16.060 know about
00:45:16.620 it, and
00:45:18.260 certainly we
00:45:18.840 don't want
00:45:19.200 to actually
00:45:19.760 consider the
00:45:20.700 facts because
00:45:22.460 then it would
00:45:23.020 derail the
00:45:23.920 whole, you
00:45:24.260 know, people
00:45:24.600 might begin to
00:45:25.320 say, well,
00:45:25.880 maybe collectivism
00:45:26.840 isn't the
00:45:27.380 best idea.
00:45:28.980 Maybe we
00:45:29.480 have to look
00:45:29.980 to something
00:45:30.480 else.
00:45:32.780 And of
00:45:33.360 course, that's
00:45:33.920 verboten, you
00:45:34.580 can't have
00:45:35.020 that, impossible.
00:45:37.560 What do you
00:45:38.060 think about the
00:45:38.740 socialists who
00:45:39.600 say, well, food
00:45:40.380 and shelter
00:45:40.820 should be a
00:45:41.360 human right?
00:45:44.520 Yeah, food
00:45:45.280 and shelter
00:45:45.800 should be a
00:45:46.380 human right.
00:45:47.420 Like, someone
00:45:48.160 else should give
00:45:48.700 it to you if
00:45:49.260 you don't work
00:45:49.720 for it.
00:45:50.920 Right.
00:45:51.320 And that's
00:45:53.640 the catch,
00:45:54.380 see, because
00:45:55.940 you know, I
00:45:57.980 know a whole
00:45:58.540 lot of people
00:45:59.280 who if you
00:46:00.680 said that to
00:46:01.420 them, they
00:46:03.960 would say,
00:46:04.600 you mean I
00:46:05.200 can get
00:46:05.580 that?
00:46:06.400 And you'd
00:46:06.980 say, yeah,
00:46:08.100 sign me up
00:46:08.820 right now.
00:46:11.120 The temptation
00:46:12.200 is enormous.
00:46:13.240 And I'm
00:46:16.040 not just
00:46:16.380 talking about
00:46:17.000 people who,
00:46:19.380 you know,
00:46:20.100 in their own
00:46:21.720 minds say,
00:46:23.900 I can't
00:46:24.460 work, I
00:46:25.020 can't hold
00:46:25.620 a job, I
00:46:26.400 can't function
00:46:27.320 in society.
00:46:28.360 I'm talking
00:46:29.240 about millions
00:46:29.900 of people who
00:46:30.760 can function.
00:46:33.540 But you
00:46:34.400 give them
00:46:34.900 that out,
00:46:36.600 and over
00:46:38.000 the years,
00:46:38.900 they're going
00:46:39.180 to be just
00:46:39.760 enormous numbers
00:46:40.920 of people who
00:46:41.620 take it.
00:46:43.240 and in
00:46:44.420 taking it,
00:46:46.520 they're going
00:46:49.120 to destroy
00:46:49.780 themselves.
00:46:50.960 Yeah, exactly.
00:46:52.000 It's like when
00:46:52.540 you go to the
00:46:53.000 park just the
00:46:53.600 other day,
00:46:54.060 I was in a
00:46:54.420 park and
00:46:54.660 it says,
00:46:54.960 don't feed
00:46:55.600 the alligators
00:46:56.300 because, you
00:46:57.020 know, you're
00:46:57.280 going to kill 1.00
00:46:57.640 them basically 1.00
00:46:58.180 if you do,
00:46:58.700 because they
00:46:59.040 get dependent
00:46:59.700 on the food
00:47:00.420 and then they
00:47:00.840 stop looking
00:47:01.320 for it on
00:47:01.980 their own.
00:47:04.060 Yeah, that's
00:47:05.480 right.
00:47:07.680 I mean, I
00:47:08.980 understand, you
00:47:10.500 know, you get
00:47:11.660 the society where
00:47:12.500 the rich are
00:47:12.900 getting richer
00:47:13.360 and the poor
00:47:13.780 are getting
00:47:14.060 poorer.
00:47:15.840 And you
00:47:16.420 say, that's
00:47:17.060 not justice.
00:47:19.180 And it
00:47:19.420 isn't because
00:47:20.420 this is not
00:47:21.820 happening in a
00:47:22.460 free market
00:47:22.940 economy, it's
00:47:24.280 happening in a
00:47:24.860 planned economy.
00:47:26.740 In other
00:47:27.040 words, the
00:47:27.520 people who run
00:47:28.320 the economy
00:47:29.480 and run the
00:47:30.080 country are
00:47:30.700 planning to
00:47:32.320 have this
00:47:32.900 extreme division
00:47:33.800 get wider and
00:47:34.660 the gulf get
00:47:35.180 wider and
00:47:35.720 wider.
00:47:36.300 And people
00:47:36.700 have to
00:47:36.980 understand that.
00:47:38.160 That's the
00:47:38.780 plan, you
00:47:39.760 know.
00:47:39.980 the plan
00:47:41.160 isn't for
00:47:41.920 a utopia.
00:47:43.200 That's the
00:47:43.700 cover story.
00:47:44.540 That's the
00:47:44.960 baloney up
00:47:46.220 front that's
00:47:47.520 supposed to
00:47:48.000 convince people
00:47:48.700 that they have
00:47:49.240 to go for
00:47:49.700 this utopian
00:47:50.360 vision.
00:47:52.400 So when you
00:47:53.480 have a
00:47:53.880 situation like
00:47:54.860 that where
00:47:56.040 through crime
00:47:58.520 basically,
00:48:00.940 continuing
00:48:01.720 organized crime
00:48:03.760 at the highest
00:48:05.160 levels, the
00:48:06.340 rich are getting
00:48:06.820 richer and the
00:48:07.360 poor are getting
00:48:07.840 poorer.
00:48:08.220 poor and
00:48:09.440 nobody's
00:48:10.040 prosecuting the
00:48:10.920 criminals, then
00:48:13.060 sure, you're
00:48:13.640 going to have
00:48:13.900 lots of
00:48:14.300 people that
00:48:14.740 are hurting.
00:48:16.260 You bet.
00:48:18.320 Now, to go
00:48:20.020 from there
00:48:20.620 though and to
00:48:21.120 say that the
00:48:21.840 solution to
00:48:22.720 this is to
00:48:25.000 give everybody
00:48:25.600 food and
00:48:26.200 shelter, is
00:48:28.040 just playing
00:48:28.720 into the hands
00:48:29.480 of the people
00:48:30.140 who are
00:48:30.860 destroying the
00:48:31.720 population with
00:48:32.720 their plan of
00:48:33.820 rich getting
00:48:34.280 richer and
00:48:34.780 poor getting
00:48:35.180 poorer.
00:48:35.540 because it's
00:48:36.660 just going to
00:48:37.160 put people in
00:48:37.900 a situation
00:48:38.580 where you're
00:48:41.060 going to have
00:48:41.300 millions more
00:48:42.040 people who
00:48:42.500 just sit around
00:48:43.020 and watch
00:48:43.340 television all
00:48:44.040 day because
00:48:45.800 their rent and
00:48:46.380 food is covered.
00:48:48.480 That's what's
00:48:49.140 going to happen.
00:48:50.400 And so what
00:48:50.980 are the chances
00:48:51.620 that those
00:48:52.320 millions of
00:48:52.920 people are
00:48:53.460 going to
00:48:53.740 rebel against
00:48:55.000 this plan?
00:48:56.380 Zero.
00:48:57.280 Less than
00:48:57.740 zero.
00:48:58.340 But the people
00:48:58.800 that provide the
00:48:59.460 jobs and work
00:49:00.140 will take off.
00:49:00.920 I mean, we saw
00:49:01.340 that happening in
00:49:02.040 Sweden.
00:49:02.820 All the young 0.99
00:49:03.340 entrepreneurs that
00:49:04.080 have brilliant
00:49:04.500 ideas, they
00:49:05.120 leave Sweden
00:49:05.860 to achieve
00:49:06.500 their dreams
00:49:07.040 and goals
00:49:07.480 because they
00:49:07.960 can't do it
00:49:08.440 in that kind
00:49:08.800 of collectivist
00:49:09.440 society where
00:49:10.340 they tax you
00:49:10.900 to death before
00:49:11.460 you even make
00:49:11.960 a move.
00:49:13.260 Right.
00:49:13.920 And the places
00:49:14.820 where they can
00:49:15.560 go are getting
00:49:17.920 scarcer and
00:49:18.680 scarcer.
00:49:19.300 Yeah, it's
00:49:19.760 true.
00:49:20.640 It's not like,
00:49:21.540 well, there's
00:49:22.000 15 countries we
00:49:23.080 know we can
00:49:23.700 really do great
00:49:24.480 in.
00:49:25.340 Maybe, you
00:49:27.100 know, the
00:49:28.180 controls are
00:49:28.940 getting tighter.
00:49:29.600 And then you
00:49:30.040 have people who
00:49:30.880 would say, you
00:49:32.880 know, like,
00:49:33.320 maybe it's
00:49:35.080 still that way.
00:49:35.680 I don't know.
00:49:36.160 But it used
00:49:36.680 to be that in
00:49:38.540 America people
00:49:39.380 looked at
00:49:39.980 Sweden and
00:49:40.620 said, man, I
00:49:42.300 wish I could
00:49:42.700 live there because
00:49:43.520 look, everything
00:49:44.080 is great.
00:49:45.420 People are
00:49:45.880 happy.
00:49:47.480 You know, it's
00:49:49.040 basically a kind
00:49:49.980 of a welfare
00:49:50.460 state and nobody
00:49:53.180 really has to
00:49:53.840 work that hard
00:49:54.860 and fantastic,
00:49:57.260 fantastic.
00:49:57.600 And then you
00:49:58.980 say, yeah, okay,
00:50:00.200 so what are the
00:50:00.780 taxes like over
00:50:01.640 there?
00:50:02.960 How much of
00:50:03.640 what you make do
00:50:04.340 you have to give
00:50:04.780 to the government?
00:50:06.060 And so then if
00:50:06.760 you scratch below
00:50:07.340 the surface, it
00:50:08.060 sort of turns out
00:50:08.860 that, yeah, life
00:50:10.220 is okay if, first
00:50:12.740 of all, you have
00:50:13.900 no questions about
00:50:14.940 the way society is
00:50:15.940 run and you keep
00:50:16.600 your mouth shut. 0.74
00:50:18.240 And two, you pay 0.98
00:50:20.820 what the government
00:50:21.300 tells you to pay to
00:50:22.340 them and you work
00:50:24.180 at your job and you
00:50:24.880 keep your head down
00:50:25.600 and that's it.
00:50:26.200 That's your life.
00:50:27.440 And if that's what
00:50:28.260 you want or if
00:50:29.080 that's what you can
00:50:29.760 convince yourself you
00:50:30.540 want, then okay.
00:50:32.360 Within those
00:50:33.160 boundaries, I guess
00:50:34.140 you could say I'm
00:50:35.000 happy.
00:50:35.380 It's okay.
00:50:37.100 And unfortunately,
00:50:38.040 that's a whole lot
00:50:38.980 of people.
00:50:40.240 Yeah.
00:50:41.320 But they also seem
00:50:42.460 to think they're
00:50:42.900 still going to have
00:50:43.440 their bling and
00:50:44.200 everything America
00:50:44.940 has to offer while
00:50:46.460 it's a socialist
00:50:47.120 system.
00:50:47.580 No way.
00:50:48.120 Everything goes
00:50:48.680 down the tubes.
00:50:49.960 It goes down to
00:50:50.800 the lowest common
00:50:51.680 denominator.
00:50:52.400 The standards of
00:50:53.100 everything goes way
00:50:54.140 down.
00:50:54.660 And I know the
00:50:56.120 apartments people
00:50:56.800 live in in Sweden.
00:50:57.900 It's not great.
00:51:00.020 I see.
00:51:00.820 Okay.
00:51:01.380 I'm interested in
00:51:02.220 the details of
00:51:03.040 that.
00:51:04.800 Yeah.
00:51:05.280 I mean, they just
00:51:05.780 have enough money
00:51:06.640 to go to the
00:51:07.840 Sistiam Belagits,
00:51:08.860 you know, the
00:51:09.340 government-controlled
00:51:10.380 liquor store, and
00:51:11.540 they drink themselves 0.89
00:51:12.620 silly. 0.95
00:51:13.120 They have a high 1.00
00:51:13.600 alcohol, high
00:51:14.340 suicide rate because
00:51:15.620 they're so controlled
00:51:16.360 from every angle.
00:51:17.380 They're taxed.
00:51:17.960 Even your dog is
00:51:18.760 taxed.
00:51:19.680 Your TV is taxed.
00:51:21.340 The media is run
00:51:22.340 by government.
00:51:22.900 I mean, you get
00:51:23.720 it on every angle
00:51:25.200 there.
00:51:25.860 It's no utopia.
00:51:28.780 But it's fine if you
00:51:29.500 just, it's fine if you
00:51:30.640 exactly like you said,
00:51:31.800 you just want to keep
00:51:32.400 your head down and 1.00
00:51:33.620 shut up and not strive 1.00
00:51:34.780 for anything more or 0.96
00:51:36.040 want to look to
00:51:36.900 something bigger and
00:51:37.840 greater, then it's
00:51:38.680 great for you.
00:51:39.600 But for someone like
00:51:40.400 me, it's the kiss of
00:51:41.320 death.
00:51:42.200 It's death to my soul
00:51:43.240 and my body.
00:51:45.240 You bet.
00:51:45.940 Yeah, I mean, these
00:51:47.660 are the facts that
00:51:49.460 are overlooked when
00:51:51.720 somebody paints a
00:51:52.500 rosy picture of
00:51:53.420 another place.
00:51:54.580 They say, gee, it's
00:51:55.200 great here.
00:51:56.340 So why is everybody
00:51:57.740 an alcoholic and
00:51:58.620 committing suicide if 0.87
00:51:59.560 it's so great?
00:52:00.600 Is that part of
00:52:01.420 having a happy life?
00:52:03.240 Yeah, I'm just a
00:52:03.960 happy drunk and I 1.00
00:52:04.760 think I'll kill 1.00
00:52:05.240 myself. 0.97
00:52:05.780 Terrific.
00:52:08.140 You know, it
00:52:08.640 just, it doesn't
00:52:09.440 add up.
00:52:10.360 And it never has
00:52:11.620 added up.
00:52:12.560 And, you know,
00:52:15.960 it's, if a person
00:52:18.980 has any responsibility
00:52:20.020 at all, the first
00:52:22.400 responsibility is to
00:52:23.680 figure out what it
00:52:24.760 is that they
00:52:25.340 actually want in
00:52:27.240 life.
00:52:27.880 Yeah.
00:52:29.320 In the largest
00:52:30.360 terms possible.
00:52:32.080 Not like, you know,
00:52:33.260 I want to convert my 0.96
00:52:35.260 fingernail polish
00:52:38.540 salon so that it
00:52:40.020 carries 12 colors of
00:52:41.440 polish rather than
00:52:42.280 10.
00:52:43.700 Something a little
00:52:44.460 bit bigger, as
00:52:45.320 you always say.
00:52:46.260 What is that you
00:52:47.060 truly want?
00:52:48.820 And then to take a
00:52:50.060 good look at that
00:52:50.800 and say, okay,
00:52:53.400 how do I get that?
00:52:55.200 What do I really,
00:52:56.260 really want?
00:52:59.240 And that, you
00:53:01.880 know, is not, no
00:53:02.620 longer part of public
00:53:04.740 discourse.
00:53:07.820 Life, liberty, and
00:53:08.740 the pursuit of
00:53:09.260 happiness.
00:53:09.780 What does that
00:53:10.200 mean?
00:53:10.460 And so, these
00:53:13.880 documents, sentiments,
00:53:17.460 ideals, principles
00:53:19.460 have been trashed one
00:53:21.440 way or another, you
00:53:22.400 know, for the last 50
00:53:23.340 years without let
00:53:25.560 up.
00:53:26.940 And the school
00:53:27.860 systems have
00:53:28.620 completely erased any
00:53:30.140 significant teaching of
00:53:31.500 American history.
00:53:32.300 history, I remember
00:53:34.040 even when I was in
00:53:34.960 school in the 40s and
00:53:36.820 the early 50s, I
00:53:39.900 don't know what they
00:53:40.460 taught in those
00:53:41.040 classes, but whatever
00:53:42.580 it was, I never
00:53:43.320 learned it.
00:53:44.100 It was the most
00:53:44.800 dull, boring kind of
00:53:47.200 stuff there was, and
00:53:49.000 nobody ever said,
00:53:51.480 now this is important
00:53:53.280 and this is why it's
00:53:54.460 important.
00:53:54.860 because the way you're
00:53:58.020 living your life now
00:53:59.260 and your parents are
00:54:00.220 living their lives is
00:54:02.960 predicated on what
00:54:04.080 happened all those
00:54:06.180 years ago.
00:54:08.120 And if that stuff
00:54:09.220 didn't happen, here's
00:54:10.120 how you might be
00:54:10.780 living now.
00:54:12.240 So why don't we look
00:54:13.180 at what happened back
00:54:14.120 then and the people
00:54:15.440 who made it happen and
00:54:17.140 see what that's all
00:54:18.220 about.
00:54:18.600 You know, that was
00:54:19.540 never, never spoken.
00:54:24.380 So it was a total
00:54:25.420 sham.
00:54:26.800 And I have to say that
00:54:28.100 that went on even into
00:54:29.360 college because we had
00:54:33.240 a course that was
00:54:34.040 mandatory called
00:54:35.420 American Studies and
00:54:37.140 they were reports and
00:54:38.440 studies that were
00:54:39.140 published in a series
00:54:40.120 about different periods
00:54:41.100 in American history and
00:54:42.140 we would study these
00:54:44.000 studies and we would
00:54:45.220 write about them and
00:54:45.940 talk about them in
00:54:46.640 class.
00:54:47.040 And never did I get
00:54:48.840 the feeling that there
00:54:49.860 was anything, you
00:54:50.840 know, thrilling,
00:54:51.500 uplifting, exciting,
00:54:53.240 inspiring about any of
00:54:54.560 this really.
00:54:55.640 It was all just sort of
00:54:57.140 dried out dust that
00:55:01.280 you could argue about.
00:55:04.180 And maybe even worse
00:55:05.720 yet, when I started to
00:55:07.960 study the classical
00:55:10.040 philosophers of Greece,
00:55:13.880 Plato, Aristotle,
00:55:15.660 Socrates,
00:55:17.040 mainly, it was never
00:55:19.740 explained.
00:55:21.500 I only realized this
00:55:22.920 years later when I was
00:55:23.900 trying to think about
00:55:24.600 why I felt it was so
00:55:25.820 boring.
00:55:27.160 It was never explained
00:55:28.460 that there had never
00:55:29.200 been anything like this
00:55:30.280 in the history of the
00:55:30.980 world before.
00:55:33.620 That some guy named
00:55:34.720 Plato was suddenly
00:55:35.580 writing dialogues with
00:55:38.480 his teacher Socrates as
00:55:40.060 one mouthpiece and some
00:55:41.540 prominent citizen as
00:55:43.760 another mouthpiece.
00:55:44.580 and they were
00:55:45.040 discussing issues about
00:55:46.360 freedom and so forth
00:55:47.440 and justice and all of
00:55:49.300 this.
00:55:50.040 And regardless of the
00:55:50.800 conclusions that Plato
00:55:51.840 came to, which I think
00:55:52.920 were disastrous, it was
00:55:54.780 the first time that this
00:55:56.880 sort of conversation had
00:55:58.360 ever been written down
00:55:59.760 and this sort of freedom
00:56:02.120 existed to explore these
00:56:05.000 issues anywhere on the
00:56:06.480 planet.
00:56:06.780 It was unprecedented and
00:56:08.600 what came before it was
00:56:10.300 just a sort of a nightmare
00:56:11.400 of dynasties and top-down
00:56:14.040 control and the priest
00:56:15.380 class who made all
00:56:17.020 decisions for everybody
00:56:18.480 and mass slavery and so
00:56:21.060 forth and so on.
00:56:21.860 And so you can see in the
00:56:23.160 educational system the
00:56:25.960 total disintegration of any
00:56:28.500 reality that would give
00:56:30.800 students an idea that they
00:56:33.540 were working with ideas that
00:56:35.080 were alive and important and
00:56:38.320 had to do with the
00:56:39.100 individual, had to do with
00:56:43.320 the individual.
00:56:44.000 In four years of college, and
00:56:47.380 this was way back in the
00:56:48.360 1950s, going up to 1960, I
00:56:53.440 don't think that I really
00:56:54.800 ever heard any professor or
00:56:56.780 teacher bring up the
00:56:58.660 individual in any serious
00:57:00.080 context.
00:57:01.060 Yeah, I can't think of one
00:57:02.360 either.
00:57:03.520 Yeah.
00:57:04.300 Okay, when did you go to
00:57:05.500 school?
00:57:06.980 Well, I'm 34, but I went to
00:57:09.560 college, actually minored in
00:57:10.820 philosophy, and I found that it
00:57:12.000 was very, very just skinned 0.96
00:57:13.920 deep.
00:57:14.380 We didn't really, we didn't
00:57:15.240 really go there, you know?
00:57:17.440 Yeah.
00:57:17.900 This is very topical.
00:57:19.960 So it's just continued and
00:57:22.100 gotten worse.
00:57:23.040 Oh, yeah.
00:57:23.280 And that's all intentional.
00:57:24.660 I mean, as you pointed out
00:57:26.380 with Dewey and there were
00:57:27.460 other people as well, the
00:57:29.880 Carnegie Foundation, it's
00:57:31.960 right up there in the
00:57:32.780 Rockefeller Foundation, they
00:57:35.180 all decided that we had to
00:57:36.600 have a planned society and
00:57:37.880 that the individual was out.
00:57:39.640 Right.
00:57:40.120 You know, it's like, you're
00:57:41.000 out, baby.
00:57:41.620 You have no more status.
00:57:44.380 That's it.
00:57:45.920 Meanwhile, we, you know, the
00:57:49.640 individuals who run these
00:57:51.060 foundations, oh, yeah, we're
00:57:53.320 going to be individuals, but
00:57:54.540 all we care about is controlling
00:57:56.000 everybody else and painting the
00:57:58.140 picture that collectivism is a
00:58:00.400 wonderful thing.
00:58:03.080 And that's our strategy.
00:58:04.600 And we'll do whatever it takes
00:58:07.540 to enforce it.
00:58:09.480 But we have to get people to
00:58:11.000 believe in it, to buy it, because
00:58:12.620 we, we're not ready to just hold
00:58:14.840 down the whole country at the
00:58:16.240 point of a gun.
00:58:18.100 Not a country like the U.S.
00:58:20.140 We don't want to go that far.
00:58:22.900 Because we know that that's going
00:58:24.400 to incite massive rebellion.
00:58:26.180 What we want to do is make it a
00:58:29.200 soft, gradual, creeping acceptance
00:58:33.120 so that people can't think any
00:58:35.780 other way.
00:58:36.760 I can think of two, two recent
00:58:38.300 examples where this is creeping
00:58:39.620 in.
00:58:39.940 Maybe it's the Fabian Society
00:58:41.900 style.
00:58:42.920 There's a college professor in
00:58:45.200 Seattle who was recently elected
00:58:46.860 and she is an open socialist and
00:58:49.400 she was elected into the city
00:58:50.920 council and she's advocating a
00:58:53.200 straight takeover of companies.
00:58:55.000 I mean, that is just straight up
00:58:56.260 communism.
00:58:57.540 And then we have Russell Brand
00:58:58.760 who's promoting his new age
00:59:00.040 socialist egalitarian system,
00:59:01.940 which everyone got all excited
00:59:03.380 about.
00:59:03.820 Don't ask me why.
00:59:06.340 Yeah.
00:59:07.380 I think because
00:59:08.640 in either tone, manner or direct
00:59:13.560 statement, he somehow connected
00:59:15.280 that with freedom.
00:59:17.320 And this is something else I think
00:59:19.200 that's really, you know, a mind
00:59:20.740 control issue here.
00:59:23.380 Because, you know, as Orr
00:59:24.940 well obviously pointed out in
00:59:26.880 1984, you twist the meaning of
00:59:29.480 words.
00:59:30.000 You give them new senses of what
00:59:33.720 they are and what they imply and
00:59:35.420 what they connect to and so forth.
00:59:36.860 And after a while, it's like hitting
00:59:38.940 somebody over the head and driving
00:59:40.320 them from pillar to post.
00:59:41.820 They don't know which way is up.
00:59:43.940 So in the same breath, you can say
00:59:45.720 freedom and you can say socialism and
00:59:49.300 you can say egalitarianism and people
00:59:52.520 will buy it as if they all go
00:59:54.620 together.
00:59:57.040 Yeah, that sounds great.
00:59:58.460 Freedom.
00:59:58.960 Yeah.
00:59:59.720 Okay.
01:00:00.180 Freedom and and socialism and
01:00:02.660 everybody's equal.
01:00:03.840 And it's all one.
01:00:05.240 It's all in one pot.
01:00:07.760 Fantastic.
01:00:08.200 You know, except when you start to
01:00:10.260 take it apart and say, well, what do
01:00:12.300 you mean by freedom in this
01:00:13.520 context?
01:00:15.160 You find out there isn't any.
01:00:17.040 You know, yeah, you're free to be a
01:00:19.820 ward of the state.
01:00:21.140 Yeah.
01:00:21.900 And if you don't like that, then you're
01:00:24.680 exiled out into the darkness.
01:00:27.740 And you're not part of society anymore.
01:00:29.840 And now you're considered to be a
01:00:32.600 criminal.
01:00:36.080 I think the anniversary of JFK's 0.59
01:00:39.220 murder is, you know, also an occasion
01:00:41.000 to look at this because it was the
01:00:45.320 first example in my lifetime that I was
01:00:48.560 aware of where the individual was
01:00:51.420 portrayed as the lone criminal, the
01:00:57.000 insane outsider who was, you know, bent 1.00
01:01:01.900 on destruction at the highest possible 0.97
01:01:03.800 level.
01:01:05.060 And in the wake of that, it was, you
01:01:09.120 know, the safety and security of the
01:01:10.740 group.
01:01:13.340 That the nation, in order to be held
01:01:15.180 together, somehow had to make sure that
01:01:17.360 this did not happen again.
01:01:19.260 It was an issue of national security and
01:01:21.840 so forth and so on.
01:01:23.480 And that cover story, you know, completely
01:01:26.720 obscured all the underground investigations
01:01:30.220 that were going on that started about
01:01:32.160 five minutes after Kennedy was shot by
01:01:34.700 people who just saw through the whole
01:01:36.460 insane scenario and realized that this
01:01:38.740 had nothing to do with the truth.
01:01:40.860 But it was used as a way of
01:01:43.520 marginalizing the individual.
01:01:46.620 See, this is what the individual would do
01:01:49.220 if left to his own devices.
01:01:52.540 And this became, you know, a marching
01:01:55.220 song more and more in later generations.
01:02:00.600 This is what the individual would do.
01:02:05.020 And it really sank the country in a
01:02:09.140 complete doldrum, eventually.
01:02:11.540 And led to these other, you know, mass
01:02:17.920 shootings and killings where the killer
01:02:19.800 becomes a celebrity and all of this kind
01:02:22.980 of thing.
01:02:23.400 Well, yeah, this is another example of
01:02:25.880 individualism.
01:02:27.580 This is what an individual will do if he's
01:02:30.480 not part of the group.
01:02:32.860 Part of the group.
01:02:33.960 And this is what we have to fight.
01:02:38.520 Yeah.
01:02:38.860 You know, and it never ends.
01:02:41.400 I mean, I was in nursery school.
01:02:46.360 Nineteen, I'm going to say, forty three
01:02:50.180 in New York.
01:02:52.940 I was totally clueless.
01:02:54.620 I mean, I was just, you know.
01:02:56.080 I don't even know how to describe what I
01:02:59.320 was.
01:03:00.260 I was like somebody from Mars who had
01:03:02.320 suddenly been parachuted down to Earth
01:03:05.320 when I went into this classroom.
01:03:08.440 And the teacher said something to me and I
01:03:10.860 said, OK.
01:03:12.420 And she said, no, no, no, no, no.
01:03:14.220 We don't say OK.
01:03:15.780 We say all right.
01:03:19.580 And I suddenly discovered they had all
01:03:21.720 these rules for what you could say and
01:03:24.260 didn't say or couldn't say and that
01:03:26.840 everything in this little nursery school
01:03:28.920 was about behavior and part of the
01:03:32.400 group.
01:03:34.100 And you got little awards.
01:03:36.220 I mean, it was 1943.
01:03:38.320 You got little awards for behaving.
01:03:43.660 You know, oh, he was good today and
01:03:45.320 whatever.
01:03:45.900 And let's all applaud this.
01:03:47.620 And, you know, the most polite student.
01:03:51.140 And all of this was held up because you
01:03:53.620 were part of the group.
01:03:56.360 I mean, this is like sheer insanity.
01:03:58.680 Yeah, of course it is.
01:04:03.580 Yeah.
01:04:04.100 What people don't seem to get, and you've
01:04:05.880 talked about this, too, is that
01:04:06.760 collectivism, it's not about a mass
01:04:08.540 outpouring of sharer and carer.
01:04:10.640 I mean, it's coming down from the top of
01:04:12.200 the ladder from an elite group that wants
01:04:14.240 to control everything.
01:04:15.940 But all of a sudden, all these
01:04:17.180 collectivists, communists, socialists,
01:04:19.120 they seem to be OK with an elite ruling
01:04:21.540 group in this case.
01:04:23.640 Yeah.
01:04:24.120 In no other case are they OK.
01:04:25.880 Yeah.
01:04:26.660 The capitalists, you know, are the fiends, 0.99
01:04:29.500 the killers, the despoilers of humanity, 1.00
01:04:33.100 et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
01:04:34.300 But, you know, we'll let them in.
01:04:37.640 You know, the same guys.
01:04:39.600 We'll let them in at the top to run 0.83
01:04:42.280 things as long as everything else is
01:04:45.380 egalitarian.
01:04:45.540 Egalitarian, and I'm sure it's all
01:04:47.420 going to work out just fine.
01:04:49.380 You know, that's where this
01:04:51.460 this thing becomes complete madness,
01:04:55.900 you know, complete insanity.
01:04:58.840 It's like you can only take the group
01:05:00.820 so far.
01:05:02.660 You know, there are certain causes
01:05:05.060 and issues and so forth where
01:05:07.420 organizing can really do you some good.
01:05:09.580 Yeah, of course.
01:05:10.580 I've been involved in some of these
01:05:12.320 over the years, but there's a limit
01:05:16.120 to how far they can operate and work.
01:05:18.820 And as an example, I would take the
01:05:20.500 union movement in America.
01:05:23.240 Because I recall 1960 going back that
01:05:26.700 far, I had a friend who worked at a
01:05:29.160 radio station in New York and he was
01:05:32.700 a real innovator and he was working
01:05:36.880 with one of the radio hosts and they
01:05:38.360 decided they were going to put on
01:05:39.740 little theatrical productions because
01:05:42.320 this radio station was now going to
01:05:44.080 do some television.
01:05:45.680 And they were going to do comic
01:05:47.020 sketches.
01:05:49.520 Well, that meant that they had to put
01:05:51.380 up a set and they had to do this and
01:05:53.020 do that and all of a sudden it was the
01:05:54.600 union guys that had to be involved
01:05:56.900 with this little project.
01:05:58.980 And so the costs ballooned out of
01:06:01.760 sight.
01:06:02.880 And he would come home from work with
01:06:04.660 his blood boiling saying, these guys
01:06:07.540 just sit around.
01:06:08.440 They don't do anything.
01:06:09.740 And they expect to collect their
01:06:11.880 paycheck.
01:06:12.540 And if you don't use them, then the
01:06:15.580 entire union will strike against the
01:06:17.420 station and we'll go out of business.
01:06:20.200 And this would happen day after day
01:06:22.060 after day after day.
01:06:23.480 You know, it's like I'm part of a
01:06:25.820 collective and you can't intimidate me
01:06:29.920 because my group is all powerful.
01:06:32.720 Yeah.
01:06:33.180 That's where it always goes.
01:06:34.700 And they completely disrespect the boss
01:06:37.620 or the inventor or someone who owns the
01:06:40.480 company.
01:06:40.820 They try and put themselves on the same
01:06:42.520 level all the time and disrespect that
01:06:44.280 person.
01:06:44.840 And they want to they want to take over
01:06:46.420 their company.
01:06:47.080 It's amazing.
01:06:48.100 You know, the power of the workers.
01:06:49.560 You couldn't do this without us.
01:06:51.840 But you wouldn't even have the job if it
01:06:53.780 weren't for the guy who came up with the
01:06:55.360 idea.
01:06:55.940 Right.
01:06:57.640 You didn't build it.
01:07:00.080 No.
01:07:01.560 Which, you know, I was really recently
01:07:04.720 watching a video, Larkin Rose, and he
01:07:10.720 was saying, let me just give you an
01:07:11.880 example of government versus no
01:07:13.640 government.
01:07:15.280 He said, here I have it.
01:07:16.540 He was standing in the woods.
01:07:17.540 He said, I have this little gadget in my
01:07:19.040 pocket, took out a cell phone.
01:07:20.760 He said, with this, I can talk to anybody
01:07:24.540 anywhere in the world.
01:07:26.340 Just this little thing.
01:07:29.000 Now.
01:07:30.440 The government didn't make this thing.
01:07:34.140 Other people did.
01:07:35.660 And I bought it.
01:07:36.820 Now I can use it.
01:07:38.160 So now you're going to tell me that
01:07:40.560 government is absolutely essential
01:07:42.260 because unless we had government, we
01:07:43.860 wouldn't have any roads. 0.96
01:07:45.240 Yeah, it's ridiculous. 0.90
01:07:46.560 Right. 0.82
01:07:47.360 So he said, what's a road?
01:07:49.420 It's a flat place.
01:07:50.940 That's it.
01:07:51.800 It's a flat place.
01:07:53.120 It enables you to get from A to B
01:07:55.260 rather easily.
01:07:57.020 So you're going to tell me that I can
01:07:58.400 hold, you know, here I have this cell
01:08:00.380 phone.
01:08:00.640 They can do all these things.
01:08:01.560 But private individuals could never
01:08:03.780 build roads.
01:08:04.780 Only the government can build roads.
01:08:06.760 Right? 0.94
01:08:07.380 It's ridiculous. 0.99
01:08:07.680 As if these politicians were out there, you 0.99
01:08:10.820 know, hacking away at the dirt and laying
01:08:14.340 down, you know, asphalt and so forth.
01:08:16.640 And they provide a bad service where I live.
01:08:18.300 The roads are not good.
01:08:19.220 And they'll provide whatever service they want to
01:08:24.680 because it's not their money and it's not their
01:08:27.800 problem.
01:08:29.900 So people are completely brainwashed in this
01:08:34.360 respect.
01:08:34.820 They imagine that all sorts of things are necessary
01:08:39.280 because reality is being manufactured for them
01:08:45.280 so that it appears that collectivist solutions are the
01:08:51.100 only things that are going to work.
01:08:52.420 Or it appears that top-down control is the only thing
01:08:56.580 that's going to keep us safe or make things work.
01:09:00.560 And that's part and parcel of reality that's manufactured
01:09:03.580 for people.
01:09:05.600 And so they find themselves unable to wake up from that
01:09:10.660 manufactured reality.
01:09:12.520 They're literally hypnotized.
01:09:16.160 And one of my late associates from the 1980s and 90s,
01:09:21.980 Jack True, who is a brilliant hypnotherapist, would
01:09:26.520 illustrate to me in so many different ways in his work
01:09:29.220 with patients, how this was happening at the level of mind,
01:09:33.460 this trance at deeper levels of subconscious where there was
01:09:40.260 an acceptance of externally manufactured reality and how
01:09:46.200 you could unhook people from that.
01:09:48.600 But that you would encounter significant resistance because
01:09:55.580 there's such an overwhelming desire on the part of many people
01:09:59.480 to buy this manufactured reality and to go along with its principles.
01:10:06.300 And that it really is a form of hypnotism.
01:10:13.840 And that it affects untold numbers of people.
01:10:18.840 So this I found very inspiring and interviewed some of his patients
01:10:24.560 and talked to Jack a lot about various methods that he used with people.
01:10:29.160 Eventually he stopped doing hypnosis altogether because, as you said,
01:10:32.360 people were already coming in hypnotized when they first walked
01:10:35.360 into his office.
01:10:37.940 So the idea was, what at the level of mind is going on so that people
01:10:47.260 accept this collectivist reality that is being manufactured for them?
01:10:54.540 What is happening there?
01:10:56.080 What kind of hypnotism is this?
01:10:58.660 What's the trance?
01:11:00.800 And, of course, it's not the kind of trance where you see zombies
01:11:03.880 walking around the street primarily.
01:11:05.800 What you see are active people who are going here, there, doing this, that.
01:11:09.620 But at some core level, they are in a trance state.
01:11:15.500 And they do buy the collectivist myth.
01:11:20.200 Yeah.
01:11:21.540 It's submerged in there somehow.
01:11:24.160 It is in there.
01:11:25.160 Very much so in there, yeah.
01:11:29.840 Yeah, I like this quote from, I'm going to pull it out from your article,
01:11:32.900 The Rebel Against the Controlled World.
01:11:34.860 I said,
01:11:35.540 This is the way the world ends, not with a bang, not with a whimper,
01:11:38.680 but with a heavily armed, surveilled Disneyland.
01:11:41.740 Everyone takes the same rides and eats the same cotton candy.
01:11:44.820 In this cartoon cult reality, whoever declines and defects is re-educated.
01:11:50.600 Yeah.
01:11:51.220 It's so true, this new form of collectivism, socialism, communism,
01:11:54.480 whatever you want to say, it's going to have a different face to it.
01:11:57.160 And you're right, it is like a surveilled Disneyland.
01:11:59.760 Everyone's eating the cotton candy and has no idea that they're in prison.
01:12:02.840 Exactly.
01:12:05.160 That's the perfection of the idea, when nobody knows that they're living in a manufactured reality,
01:12:13.040 but they just accept the terms of it.
01:12:15.460 And, you know, there have been a few experiments that have been done to more or less show
01:12:28.180 that people will bend to peer pressure conformity and accept certain terms of reality that are just absurd.
01:12:39.320 You know, the famous Milgram experiments where volunteers were induced to deliver what they thought were electric shocks to people
01:12:48.540 who were sitting behind a partition, who were actually actors hired to scream and so forth because these people were giving the wrong answers to questions
01:13:00.620 or being non-responsive or whatever.
01:13:02.460 And how through an authority figure like the researcher, many of these volunteers in the experiment could be nudged into even giving higher levels of shocks
01:13:17.800 or what they thought were shocks accompanied by louder screams and so forth just because, just because that's reality,
01:13:26.360 just because, well, this researcher must know what's best and I'm just following along with what's going on, you know.
01:13:36.840 So, the Disneyland cartoon-esque aspect of this, I think, is highly significant because if you can entrain people to believe in that kind of reality,
01:13:51.600 then it all looks like fun at a sort of low level of fun, you know.
01:13:58.200 Cotton candy, hot dogs, you go on a ride, you walk around, you pay money, you do all these sorts of, you know, crazy little things.
01:14:09.280 Only, it's not just on a Sunday afternoon, it's like every day, all day, you know.
01:14:15.260 And so, people look at you and say, well, what's the problem?
01:14:21.140 And if you try to say, well, don't you see, no, I don't, I don't know what you're talking about.
01:14:28.580 Don't know what you're talking about.
01:14:32.400 Jeez.
01:14:33.380 So, where are we heading, John?
01:14:35.180 Well, we're heading in that direction, but at the same time, there is a kind of counter-revolution that's taking place,
01:14:42.820 and I think largely because of the Internet, that people are breaking out.
01:14:52.300 And they may start at the level of, you know, I've been cheated.
01:14:58.020 The system has deluded me into thinking X, Y, Z.
01:15:05.180 And there are criminals out there who are pretending that they are the government,
01:15:11.480 or pretending they are huge toxic corporations, or whatever.
01:15:17.020 And then, the next step is to see how they've been actually, you know, buying and drinking the Kool-Aid themselves.
01:15:28.880 And sacrificing their own unique individuality on the altar of whatever it is, you know, having a job, conforming, fitting in,
01:15:45.900 living a life according to the plan of their family, on whatever level it is that they begin to see,
01:15:53.180 wait a minute, you know, there's more to this.
01:15:56.480 And I personally see more people waking up to that.
01:16:01.180 That they are realizing that they need to give voice to their own freedom and to do something with it.
01:16:08.360 That means something to them individually, not to the group.
01:16:14.820 So, I see, you know, more than a glint of hope there.
01:16:19.980 But I also see hope in the fact that when you look at the sheer amount of propaganda,
01:16:28.980 information control, mind control of one kind or another that's been unleashed upon the populace since the dawn of time on this planet,
01:16:38.560 the sheer tonnage of it, that to me is a major clue.
01:16:42.980 So, it tells you that there is something within the individual that takes a tremendous amount of brainwashing
01:16:50.040 to get them to, A, conform and to stay, B, in the realm of conformity and buying into manufactured reality.
01:16:59.340 If it was just a little flip of the hand and this and that, and, you know,
01:17:04.500 this would have been a total slave planet a long time ago.
01:17:07.620 So, there is something within individuals that is a tremendous resistance at the same time that they buy into manufactured reality.
01:17:17.860 There is this other element of self which is diametrically opposed to it.
01:17:25.340 And that's a lot harder to kill off.
01:17:28.380 A lot harder.
01:17:29.580 I agree. It's the spark of life.
01:17:31.780 And that's ultimately, I think, what they're after.
01:17:34.180 They want to turn that light off.
01:17:36.320 Exactly.
01:17:38.380 They want to turn that light off.
01:17:41.140 And they do it in a number of ways.
01:17:44.580 You know, another thing that has come down the pipeline to us that is now universally accepted among the elites at different levels,
01:17:55.600 just like the planned society is universally accepted by them,
01:17:59.980 is the conditioned reflex human being as a biological machine.
01:18:05.220 That's a premise they just don't even think about anymore.
01:18:10.980 That's it.
01:18:11.760 What else would you think a human being is?
01:18:15.060 And because we've seen time and time again, they would say historically how dangerous these wild creatures can be if left to their own devices,
01:18:23.760 then naturally we have to find better ways of controlling them.
01:18:27.260 And this is another point of extreme resistance within the individual when he becomes aware that this is what's happening.
01:18:36.420 That there is this kind of a chain of one-conditioned reflex-conditioned human being relating to another, to another, to another, to another,
01:18:49.340 all within the sphere of pure Pavlovian response.
01:18:55.660 And that he, some part of him, is standing outside that and isn't buying it.
01:19:01.560 That's another thing where people can begin to see what their own freedom is really like.
01:19:08.880 Because freedom is enormous.
01:19:11.300 That spark of life is really a huge volcano within each individual.
01:19:17.340 Not only as a space, you might say, in which action can be taken, but as a realm of possibility of what you can do in your own life.
01:19:32.980 And this is one reason why I emphasize so strongly in my work the power of imagination and creative power.
01:19:42.860 Because that's really where the spark goes to, that spark of life ignites great imagination of futures, possibilities,
01:20:00.940 unheard of things that do not yet exist, and the creative power to make them happen in the world.
01:20:08.920 And the individual can do this because the individual wants to do this primarily.
01:20:18.440 Not primarily because the individual wants to be a slave to sacrifice himself to the benefit, quote, benefit of others,
01:20:28.440 but because he wants to do whatever, bring about that future that he sees.
01:20:34.960 And then the spillover effects have beneficial values for everybody else.
01:20:46.020 And so yes, they want to exterminate that spark, and they want to exterminate the possibility that it becomes a conflagration and a great fire.
01:20:55.140 But where it becomes a great fire is within the individual, if he or she would see it that way.
01:21:03.040 Nobody ever said in any of the founding documents of the American Republic that freedom was,
01:21:12.140 individual freedom was severely limited.
01:21:16.300 What they said was that the power to infringe upon freedom was severely limited.
01:21:24.920 And that is something that remains, you know, untaught in schools.
01:21:30.820 But that's a key factor.
01:21:33.700 Freedom has no limit.
01:21:35.420 The only limit it has is that you don't impose or impinge upon the freedom of anybody else.
01:21:45.580 Other than that, the sky is completely open.
01:21:50.880 And this is the kind of renaissance that, you know, that I'm teaching and promoting.
01:21:57.820 And I see individuals waking up to it.
01:22:02.920 I get lots of emails from people indicating in one way or another that, you know, this is happening with them.
01:22:09.800 Because they finally realized, et cetera, et cetera, you know, that they were living in a manufactured reality.
01:22:16.400 And they want out, and they're not going to accept it anymore.
01:22:20.480 This is what the future of the planet depends on.
01:22:23.640 I'm glad to hear that.
01:22:25.080 John, thanks again for your time this evening.
01:22:27.100 It's always inspiring and a pleasure to hear you speak.
01:22:30.780 Thank you so much.
01:22:31.840 I really appreciate it.
01:22:32.820 I've really enjoyed it, as always.
