The old system is dying

by Michael Smith (Veshengro)

The old system is dying and it knows that its days are numbered but it is not going quietly, it is fighting tooth and nail to stay alive regardless of how many people will die in the process.

This fight against death by the old system also becomes more or less self evident in the many repressive laws being enacted against the people, the supposed and so-called “war on terror”, the mass surveillance of everyone and also the fluoridation of drinking water and the forced introduction in so many things of Aspartame (or its derivatives), both of the latter which are neural pathway agents and poisons.

oldsystemdying1The powers-that-be are more than aware that the power of the people, should the people decide to use it, is a threat to them and the system and in order to perpetuate their hold on power they are prepared to go to any lengths.

The old system is dying but it is fighting tooth and nail, like a cornered rat, to stay alive by all means possible, and like a cornered rat it is thus more dangerous than ever.

For this reason – under the guise of fighting crime and terror, though they themselves are the one creating terror – the powers-that-be want more and more control, to the point of total control, over the people and everything the people do, say and even think. Hence the proliferation of CCTV everywhere, the attempted control of the Internet, for this being free is an anathema to them, and wanting to know what we buy and where and when also.

It also demonstrates itself in the curbs on the freedoms of the press and the freedom of expression and to peacefully assemble and demonstrate.

The recent laws enacted in Britain that can turn any how ever peaceful demonstration in the eyes of the law and law enfarcement (no, this is not a spelling mistake) into acts of domestic terrorism is yet another facet of this.

We, who are working towards a new world, have to understand what is happening and why so that we know the enemy and know what to do.

The masses do not understand, however, what is going on and also many believe – God help us – that our governments are benign and go even so far as to say that, even if we do not like some or even all of the policies of those “in power” we must support the government which is in power.

I liken the government to them then to a company in which we are all shareholders and the government the board of directors who make a mess of things and then say that, in that case, we, the shareholders would immediately replace the board. And still they don't get it.

The true fact is that we must not just replace the board of this “company” called the state but we must abolish the state itself in the way that it exists at the moment.

Can we make the people understand? We must at least try to make them understand this truth as to what is happening and why. It is our task. It is the duty of those of us who have understood what is going on, what is happening, to awaken the masses. And, we must also be prepared to lead the awakened masses when the awakening has happened.

You ignorance is their power

by Michael Smith (Veshengro)

Your ignorance of what is going on in the world, you ignorance of your rights and their responsibilities, is what given them power over you.

It is also your ignorance on how things should run, on political issues, on issues of the world, the financial world, and much more, that gives them who have placed themselves above you their power over you.

They are your servants not you theirs. We pay their salaries. When you remember that they already lose some of their power over you, and this also goes for the police. They are public servants, and thus your servants and not the other way round.

Many people may disagree with the policies of their government, if they are in the least informed, but still believe that they HAVE to support the government which is in power. In the same way that despite being sent to illegal war they believe that they have to support the troops.

How can you support a government that is riding roughshod over your rights? But in their ignorance many people allow just that too happen and still, regardless of disagreeing with the actions of the government believe that they have to support the government that is in power.

Lean how the system works and you will see that the system that we have at present was designed to keep the people under control while, at the same time, have the people believe that they have control through elections.

If elections would make a difference they would have outlawed them ages ago. Therefore do not believe that voting, in the system that we currently have and which is claimed to be a democratic one, makes the slightest bit of a difference in who is running our respective countries.

Our governments are but puppets put there not by us – though we are led to believe that that is the case – but by those that really are in control and it is those that will run our countries regardless of which party or president is in “power”.

Often someone will say that the system, and here referring to both the political and the economic one, is broken but the truth is that it is not; it was designed this way. This means that whatever we do, whoever we elect, makes not one iota of a difference. Only a total change of system, the bringing about of a new, an entirely new, system, in both the political and the economic spectrum with make a difference and will bring about change.

This will, however, require a real revolution and one that that must be sustained and not, like in so many cases before, hands power back to an elite who, in turn, will then create their fiefdoms again and lord it over the people.

Such a revolution must be guarded for ever so that it remains the people who are in power and control and not usurpers who return everyone back to the way it has always been; rulers and ruled.

We need not a new government but a new system entirely.

Banks before people

by Michael Smith (Veshengro)

Our rulers have decided to save the banking system by sacrificing the living standard of the people on the altar of expediency.

It is good to see, I must say, that they have their priorities right and are protecting their (personal) interests. Who are the people anyway but just plebes, riffraff and a nuisance.

At least our rulers' incomes, bonuses, consultancy fees from banking and industry, and living standards are protected. It just would not do and be not proper if we'd allow any of our rulers and leaders to suffer poverty now. Not that there would be much of a chance of them suffering and experiencing poverty first hand anyway whatever.

While ministers vote themselves very hefty pay rises the frontline civil servants and municipal workers, the latter who are on some of the lowest incomes anyways, are forced to accept a pay freeze, at the threat of losing their jobs, for several years and a pay cut in real terms.

Our rulers, whether in Westminster, Washington DC, or elsewhere, sure know how to look after No.1 and after their friends and cronies who keep them well supplied. The people don't count and to them are but serfs to be oppressed and controlled.

They claim to be protecting the economy but aside from the banks they burned out no other businesses, especially none that really did something for the economy by providing goods and services and jobs.

In fact they are not even prepared to help “vital” industries and they are not even protecting local authorities so that the latter be able to provide vital and essential services to the community.

When people, ordinary people, lose jobs or when the threat of job loss is hanging over them they have no confidence to support the economy by spending money on this, that, and the other. Instead they try to make ends meet and hold on to the little that they may be able to “save” for the “just in case” scenario.

The actions of our rulers have absolutely nothing to do with supporting the economy but everything with propping up a corrupt banking system and a broken economic one.

When UK Prime Minister David Cameron in early December 2011 put in his veto, a veto of which no one took the slightest bit of a notice (so much for a veto in the EU), the the EU meeting about the Euro Crisis, his interest was only to protect the City, that is to say the financial institutions in the City of London and the Corporation.

The British people and their wish – in the majority – to get us out of the EU were not his concerns and were not even considered. In fact, David Cameron flatly refused to even entertain the idea of given the people as say as to continued membership of the UK in the European Union.

The banks are put before the people and the reason is as outlined. Time for a change, a serious change, methinks.
