The Global Elite

This is an interesting article about the background and current influence of the Trilateral Commission by someone who has been researching this for years. It explains how the pieces fit together and gives some guidelines for identifying the global elite. Some excerpts:

The Global Elite: Who Are They?

Introduction
There are two common misconceptions held by those who are critical of globalism.

The first error is that there is a very small group of people who secretly run the world with all-powerful and unrestrained dictatorial powers. The second error is that there is a large amorphous and secret organization that runs the world. In both cases, the use of the word “they” becomes the culprit for all our troubles, whoever “they” might be. If taxes go up, it is “they” that did it. If the stock market goes down, “they” are to blame. Of course, nobody really knows who “they” are so a few figureheads (people or organizations) are often made out to be the scapegoats.

Depending on a person’s politics and philosophy, the scapegoats could be the U.S. President, the ACLU, the Ford Foundation, or Vladimir Putin. The point is, the real power structure is not correctly defined, and thus escapes exposure.
. . .
This writer has never been accused of charging that all large corporations are guilty of initiating and perpetuating globalization. There are many businesses, including banks, who are led by moral, ethical and good-hearted businessmen or businesswomen. Just because a company might touch globalism does not mean it and its management or employees are evil.
. . .
It is also important to understand that core globalists have full understanding of their goals, plans and actions. They are not dimwitted, ignorant, missinformed or naive.

The global elite march in three essential columns: Corporate, Political and Academic. For the sake of clarity, these names will be used herein to refer to these three groups.

In general, the goals for globalism are created by Corporate. Academic then provides studies and white papers that justify Corporate’s goals. Political sells Academic’s arguments to the public and if necessary, changes laws to accommodate and facilitate Corporate in getting what it wants.

An important ancillary player in globalism is the media, which we will call Press in this report. Press is necessary to filter Corporate, Academic and Political’s communications to the public. Press is not a fourth column, however, because it’s purpose is merely reflective. However, we will see that Press is dominated by members of Corporate, Political and Academic who sit on the various boards of directors of major Press organizations
. . .

In 1971, Zbigniew Brzezinski wrote in Between Two Ages: The Technetronic Era,

“…the nation-state as a fundamental unit of man’s organized life has ceased to be the principal creative force: International banks and multinational corporations are acting and planning in terms that are far in advance of the political concepts of the nation-state.”7

Brzezinski could not have been more clear than this. Of the few people who paid attention to Brzezinski previously, only one person needed to receive his message fully: David Rockefeller, chairman of Chase Manhattan Bank and consummate globalist. When they teamed up to start the Trilateral Commisison in 1973, the rest, as we say, “became history.”

International banks and companies have millions while countries owe millions. That tells me where the power is.

This makes sense. It doesn’t come across like a conspiracy or anything crazy but is logical and I think it is obvious once you read it.

I wonder what OPEC’s role is in all of this? I am thinking this shake up might clean out some of the rat’s nest but who knows. We can hope. At least people aren’t buying the story about not using our own oil any more. If Americans wake up there is still hope we can climb out of this.

Pickles, I think a lot of us are suffering from bad economy fatigue right now. I know I am. Sorry we are so depressing. Go outside and enjoy some flowers or something. Go to a movie, listen to some happy music.
