Breaking the Bonds of Civilization


Armstrong Economics Blog/Civilization Re-Posted Dec 28, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

COMMENT: A real story in reference to masks and psychological damage.
My wife and I moved to a small town 140 miles west of Richmond, VA one year ago. Your real estate model, the changes in attitude in larger cities, and the allure of the mountains all were incorporated into the decision.
When you move to a new home, one thing you will need is light bulbs. So one Sunday after church, I went to a local big box, home improvement store to make my purchase. Finding the 40 feet section of light bulbs was easy to find since they were near the front door. Making the proper decision was not simple due to types, fittings, and various wattages. During my decision making, eleven individuals or couples passed my position. 9 of the 11 said, “Excuse me, pardon me, or gave a greeting.” I wasn’t in Richmond anymore. I was proud to be in a new area with a cordial population.
Now, 11 months later I find myself back at the home improvement store making purchases for a kitchen project. While I don’t have to linger in the light bulb area, I do have to travel to the store for various hardware items and wood. The friendly greetings or an inner aisle “excuse me” have become infrequent. Eye contact is almost rare. My new, small-town has changed immensely.
I could continue with thoughts on this issue or experiences with neighbors, but my main point has been made.
I am sure this isn’t just happening here and it will take a while to repair not only the economic damage but also the psychological damage too.
Best Regards,
SS

REPLY: So far here in Florida people seem to be still cordial, but we have concerts and we were allowed to even hold our World Economic Conference here which I doubt would have been allowed in any other state other than perhaps Texas. I think this is the difference. The masks and lockdowns are breaking the bonds of society. Civilization is formed by people coming together to work together which produces a synergy whereby the sum of the individuals is greater than remaining alone. This is what is being destroyed.

I have gotten emails from students who say they cannot learn remotely – it’s not the same. Others were in culinary school which cannot possibly be conducted remotely. So many other fields require group meetings. Other students were in fashion. They cannot put on a fashion show. Others were in school to become professional photographers. The same is taking place.

As a trader, there was always an indescribable bond that takes place in a trading room. Splitting people up and working from home also breaks that bond. I have friends who are investment bankers who worked in New York. One moved to Tampa because they no longer return to their offices.

The very core of civilization is the end of individualism/tribalism. As people came together, civilization was born. Courts were an integral part for they were there to resolve disputes in a “civilized” manner. The US Supreme Court acted totally illegally claiming discretion not to take the Texas case. They have condemned society to violence for without courts to rule impartially, civilization CANNOT exit. You will have the anti-Trump people claiming there was no evidence and the pro-Trump angry because the court refused to even listen to any evidence. Hence, they have defeated the very underlying principle of civilization. There is no longer a reason to even have the United States for it has been reduced to one group trying to oppress another.

This is what is being torn apart and I am not so sure this Triumvirate understands this goes way beyond any possibility of returning to normal. They have defeated the evil enemy Trump, the will his occupy Capitol Hill, they have become the enemy. The more they fragment society, the greater the violence with one group against another. This is how the financial capital of the world will migrate to China who will defeat these egotistical totalitarians.

Are Masks & Social Distancing Creating Permanent Psychological Damage?


Armstrong Economics Blog/Disease Re-Posted Dec 27, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

I have received a number of emails pro and con masks. Plain and simple, masks will not prevent you from getting COVID-19. Even Saint Fauci, who the world seems to trust beyond Jesus, Budda, or Mohamid, has admitted that he has even lied about herd immunity to try to manipulate society to get the vaccine, stated at the start of this masks do not work. He changes his opinions to match the desired political agenda. Anyone who listens to this guy probably still believes in Santa Claus and politicians really care.

There is a much more sinister objective behind the masks and social distancing. They will keep this going well into 2021 and the real objective is to prevent civil unrest. Schwab is already telling people if they do not accept his Agenda 2030, there will be revolutions. The restrictions with lockdowns are driving the poor into absolute poverty. Black unemployment was at a historic low in the United States under Trump. Lowering taxes creates more jobs. They are deliberately doing this to create civil unrest to justify Agenda 2030.

Meanwhile, the masks and social distancing are creating a permanent impact psychologically whereby some people will from here on out, will look at others as being a threat to their health be it the flu or anything.

As one reader Paul writes, “If I were to write a book about the times we live in ‘scared stupid’ would be the title. Apparently, they think social distancing while skiing is also necessary. I can’t stop laughing. Not to mention, you normally ski 6 feet from someone as a courtesy anyway. ”

Many people are just so frightened they will not leave their house. I have spoken to one person who has convinced themselves that are in that less than .05% who are at risk. This was the Christmas Tweet from Schwab. No Merry Christmas – not that there are people deep in third world countries with no ID so the rest of the world must help them by submitting to this electronic ID.

Nobody will be able to travel anywhere without the approval of this new Triumvirate. They want to overthrow the United States and hand all power to the United Nations, end travel without their digital ID, and prevent you from buying or selling without digital currencies.

Then they are our Super Friends who want to reduce the world population. With friends like these, who needs enemies or villains?

President trump Speaks Uncensored!


Facebook, Twitter, Google. U tube, MSNBC, CNN, ABC and Fox are now all on board with the the Great Reset also know as Agenda 30. The goal is to destroy all the small businesses in Western Civilization. and then rebuild society with only large business. Why would this be done to us? Well those that are the smartest and the best and the brightest and they know what is good for us and so they must destroy us so that they can remake us better than we are now. Barack Obama, Bill Gates, George Soros, Klaus Schwab, Peter Neffenger are the architects of these ideas and they have only want to help us be better people.

There is no reason to not believe them they have never lied to us before.

Our Socialist Sick Government Across US is Indifferent to Failing Economy, Waste & Human Suffering


Cheap LED UV Lights Disinfect COVID: Low Tech Bully Govt Failing US Business

Re-Posted from the Canada Free Press By Kelly OConnell —— Bio and ArchivesDecember 21, 2020

INTRO: Israeli COVID UV LED Light Breakthrough: A new breakthrough from Israel establishes UV lights to disinfect areas from COVID. Further, using LED light sources, these inexpensive 185 nm bulbs are highly effective. It’s therefore troubling such an easy answer to safety wasn’t discovered by incredibly sophisticated states like NY and CA, but found by the tiny nation of  Israel.

Hemorrhaging Trillions: Now, do you believe our government  prefers mindlessly hemorrhaging trillions instead of investing in our nation’s businesses to create a virus safety net? Such leadership decisions aiding businesses would inject money into the construction industry and keep restaurants and other small shuttered businesses open, removing the necessity of giving cash to idled workers. It would also keep employees from depression and related drug use, and other negative outcomes. 

Safe Airplanes: Since these lights cannot be used directly on humans given their power, another related discovery could come in handy. Recently, the US Military tested airplanes and found “It’s almost impossible to get Covid on airplane:” 

A new military-led study unveiled Thursday shows there is a low risk for passengers traveling aboard large commercial aircraft to contract an airborne virus such as COVID-19—and it doesn’t matter where they sit on the airplane. Researchers concluded that because of sophisticated air particle filtration and ventilation systems on board—airborne particles within the cabin have a very short lifespan.

Combining LED & Sophisticated Airflow: It’s possible to combine these two elements – UV LED disinfectant lighting and sophisticated air filtration to make restaurants almost bulletproof against COVID. An air circulation system circulating air from table areas which filtered and exposed air to UV rays, then put it back into the eating area would be splendid. It would be a better use of trillions of dollars instead of simply paying employees not to work.

It’s Already Being Done: If America gets numerous companies to simultaneously create vaccines in a few months, surely building a functional disinfectant air system in most businesses isn’t impossible. Further, these businesses will stay open, paying salaries and taxes. 

In fact, the Miami Dolphins already designed such an air system.

UV-C LED maker Crystal created a ceiling-mounted air circulation system to deactivate the coronavirus in occupied rooms. The unit is an ambient lighting troffer from Healthe Inc, equipped with air filtration mechanisms. Healthe has installed about forty 2×2-ft fixtures into dropped ceilings inside the locker room and other facilities for the Miami Dolphins football team in Miami Gardens, FL.

Failed Leadership: Leaders across America have directed us towards economic suicide in the name of survival. So, where are the compassionate and principled civil leaders who actually care about failed businesses, suffering unemployed workers and heart-rending, family shattering bankruptcies? These casual shutdowns and mindless parroting of other state’s rules is the worst kind of “leading.”

One Answer to All Problems? Many businesses will fail these repeated shutdowns because leftist mayors or governors worship a  bureaucratic model claiming there is one answer to all complex problems. Therefore, all leaders must line up and follow. Instead, where are creative and gutsy citizen-leaders willing to oppose the stupid and avoidable destruction of our economy? The anti-Capitalist, anti-normal-human grudge is truly jaw-dropping.  Is there anything more depressing than leadership by those convinced we are not important enough to expect smart and passionate advocacy?

CONCLUSION: Please don’t pretend government investment in private business saving untold jobs is the worst choice. If our government is hellbent on pouring cash across America, it’s better than spending TRILLIONS  trying to replace all salaries. Please vote for independent-minded and principled leaders who use common sense in directing our populace towards a better world – not destroying everything good in the name of angry Marxist fantasies. 

Leftist Democracy is Suffocating



When this leftist brand of “democracy” crashes and burns, the politicians et al, who enabled it, will be long gone and dust in the ground but the globalist citizens, formerly Americans, will suffer the consequences for generations

Re-Posted from the Canada Free Press By Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh —— Bio and ArchivesDecember 21, 2020

While attending school in the socialist republic paradise ruled by the Communist Party, the curriculum was determined by the communist educators and activists in good standing with the party. As students, if we tried to question the exact narrative printed in the books or repeated by teachers, we were usually told, “democracy has gone to your heads,” how dare you question the wisdom of the party?

This was not unlike what is happening today in American colleges and universities where divergent opinions from the progressive philosophy are not allowed to exist. Yet the same academics shout from the rooftops that non-leftists are endangering “democracy” by their mere existence.

The word “democracy” means different things for different people, depending on their ideology. Merriam-Webster dictionary defines democracy as “government by the people, rule of the majority, a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system or representation usually involving periodically held free elections.”

Blaming capitalism for the ills created by the left is something that the brainwashed useful idiots protesting in the streets and on campuses will never understand

Would that be “free elections” like the most recent presidential election when a new president-elect emerged, frail, sickly, and unable to gather more than 30 people to his rallies, aided and abetted by fraudulent mail-in ballots, “computer glitches” which added hundreds of thousands of new votes to his count in the middle of the night, opposition ballots disposed of in dumpsters, and boxes of favorable ballots delivered in the middle of the night in unmarked vans?

As I clearly recall, we had “democracy” in name only in socialism, under the rule of the Communist Party, it was their way or the gulag.

Leftists invoke “democracy” every time they want to achieve their goals which are usually not good for the American people. The left are really adept at accusing the other side of what they are doing, hijacking the concept of “democracy” to suit their globalist, anti-American agenda.

Blaming capitalism for the ills created by the left is something that the brainwashed useful idiots protesting in the streets and on campuses will never understand because they have lost contact, or never had it in the first place, with reality and historical facts.

“Empowering workers” and “worker power” have been tried before in the twentieth century with disastrous results in countries like USSR, Poland, Bulgaria, Romania, China, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, North Korea, Cuba, and many others ruled by the Communist Party.

Social justice, racial justice, jobs with justice, fake systemic racism, fake white privilege have become the rallying cry and excuse to destroy capitalism and anyone who stands in their way of bringing back communism, more destructive than ever and on a global scale.

The left is “radically reimagining and redefining” the mission and goals of societies and families across the globe and nobody will stand in their way. Sarcastically stated, what can possibly be more “democratic” than that? Erase borders, education, faith, family, history, nationality, confiscate wealth and redistribute it from producers to welfare recipients, and you have the Democratic Socialism envisioned by American Democrats.

The Democratic Socialism the left is building and advocating in the twenty-first century will drive us exactly in the direction of an “increasingly unstable, undemocratic, unequal, and unsustainable world” they are so busy criticizing capitalism for.

And the future of American workers will be quite bleak as the left pretends to protect them with clever rhetoric, while importing more and more illegal workers into the U.S. and outsourcing more well-paid and skilled American jobs to foreign guest workers who work for a fraction of the pay.

Leftists take pride in making their followers believe that their brand of “democracy” pays workers living wages for doing precious little and gives them free everything that makes life enjoyable.

The leftist brand of “democracy” is suffocating our formerly free society

The “democracy” I experienced under socialism was quite oppressive and the Party paid their workers, the infamous proletariat, barely survivable wages, with no way to improve one’s station in life or their families’ financial future.

The Democratic Socialists of America, founded in 1982, had about eight thousand converts by 1989. Today claims are made that 57 percent of Democrats have a favorable view of socialism and 37 percent of Americans have a positive view of socialism. If you are to believe such Gallup polls, of the 252 million voting-age Americans, 93 million (17 and older) view socialism in a rose-colored glass light.

In a short period of time, the United States moved from America-loving to an America-hating field primed for socialism and global communism.

What enabled such a significant change? The main culprits seem to be the academic halls of powerful indoctrination, Hollywood, billionaire donations to political non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and the misinformation of the main stream media fed gradually over decades by Jimmy Carter’s Department of (mis)Education.

What is Klaus Schwab Really About?


Armstrong Economics Blog/Conspiracy Re-Posted Dec 22, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

A lot of people are starting to feel as if Klaus Schwab is the anti-Christ. He is advocating that no one should buy or sell without a digital health certificate, and he advocates trans-humanism while insisting on lockdowns of even religion. I don’t know about being the anti-Christ, but he is a very sick and highly dangerous man. Any world leader who travels to his conferences should be thrown out of office.

What Schwab is doing is trying to take over the world, not by any democratic process, but by advocating tyranny. I have stated many times that the Founding Fathers did not understand Roman history. They assumed that Julius Caesar was some evil dictator and Cato with Cicero were the good guys. Unfortunately, they were not fully informed, for had they been informed, they would NEVER have advocated a Republic. Every Republic in history has turned into an oligarchy.

Schwab has sent his new Communist 3.0 Manifesto to every world leader and every governor/premier of every state and province around the world. He has been exploiting the danger of Republics, for they can promise you anything to get elected and then do exactly the opposite. This is what a “representative” form of government is all about. The Founding Fathers were not fully aware that the Roman Senate was never “elected” by the people. Senators were only the aristocrats — never the plebs. There was no right to vote afforded to the people and this is precisely where we find ourselves once again. Tell us anything, and do precisely the opposite.

Did Biden Get a Real Vaccine or Water?


Armstrong Economics Blog/Disease Re-Posted Dec 22, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

QUESTION: Do you think Biden really got the vaccine?

ANSWER: Absolutely no way. Aside from the fact that he is too old and in the danger zone for vaccines anyhow, there are far too many people who have serious reactions to the vaccine. It has been widespread and serious enough to warrant an investigation. The FDA has opened a formal investigation of these allergic reactions to Pfizer vaccine reported in multiple states as well as in Britain.

Bill Gates has himself admitted that if he vaccinates the entire world, a small percentage will die from the allergic reaction – 700,000 people to be exact. Now ask yourself this. Would they EVER risk really giving a vaccine to Biden or ANY OTHER high profile person staging this before the cameras? The answer is no way! If Biden died that would be the end of their program. They could NEVER afford that to happen.

It’s called risk management.

Now They Censor Anyone Explaining the Great Reset of Schwab


Armstrong Economics Blog/Revolution Re-Posted Dec 22, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

What Is The Great Reset? Explaining the World Economic Forum’s Controversial Initiative.

YouTube has censored anything explaining what Agenda 2030 is all about. These individuals are part of the conspiracy to end capitalism, and they are now advocating Communism 3.0 intermixed with Feudalism. First, it was COVID, then Trump; now it is anything that explains the Great Reset, which is a publicly declared agenda to which Trudeau has openly committed Canada to follow. Trudeau will NEVER tell the people the truth.

These people act like the worse tyrants in history. They will eliminate elections and impose George Soros’ one-world government with the United Nations at the helm.

Anyone who still refuses to believe the election was rigged simply because they hate Trump, well, you better start paying attention to the people who convinced you to hate Trump, for they have a far worse future in mind for you. The problem is simple. They know that the longer they can prevent people from rising up, the more small businesses will be destroyed, and small businesses employ 70% of the civil workforce. You better wake up, for your children are being condemned, and these people will not allow you to know their evil intentions. These people are committing outright treason against the United States and free society.

Twitter is the most disgustingly corrupt of all. Dorsey is lucky I am not president, for I would have sent the military in and seized his company as Truman did during the strikes under National Security. Two weeks before the election Twitter changed how you retweet because they obviously didn’t want certain things to go viral. Now that they got the political result they wanted, so low and behold, they’re going back to the old way. Dorsey is an absolute vile individual who has conspired against the United States and we will see Twitter make every effort to push Schwab’s takeover of the world. Dorsey and Zuckerger should go to prison where they will enjoy “equality” and everyone gets the same – for life. Here we have these two individuals doing EXACTLY what they accused Russia of doing – influencing the US election.

London in a State of Panic


Armstrong Economics Blog/BRITAIN Re-Posted Dec 21, 2020 by Martin Armstrong

Boris Johnson is DELIBERATELY trying to destroy the British economy so he can “Build Back Better” following the course of Bill Gates and Klaus Schwab. The objective is plainly to destroy as much employment as possible and that will then push the people into accepting this new world order for they will starve to death if they do not accept his payments of Guaranteed Basic Income. His offer to retrain people is proof that he absolutely knows what he is doing – destroy the economy to make it Green without ever allowing the people to vote on such a major change. The people are just the herd of the Great Unwashed unworthy of having any say in their own future.

Unfortunately, if the politicians do not call for a NO CONFIDENCE VOTE and overthrow this government or the people do not rise up and force them to do so, then Boris, Gates, and Schwab win. There will be no economy to return to and thus it is checkmate – the end of Britain as a financial center and the end of freedom. All for a disease with a better than a 99% survival rate including Boris himself.

Boris has created a massive panic evacuation of London because of his decree for a total lockdown. Such a panic evacuation has not been seen since 1939. If the politicians do not defend the people and the country, there will be NOTHING left to ever return to. This is a deliberate plan and the longer people allow this to take place, the greater the chance they will lose their country.

The 1969 H3N2 (the “Hong Kong flu” back then) affected people, pets, and even zoo animals. The death toll was 4 million – 4x that of COVID and they did not wear masks, no social distancing did not destroy jobs and small businesses. Even Woodstock took place in the middle of the pandemic.

This is a MANUFACTURED CRISIS deliberately being used to create the new world order of Klaus Schwab. The longer it takes people to rise up, the less the chances there will be anything left to fight for. Boris is standing in line to kiss the ring of Schwab and wants a pat on the head and told to sit
