The Tragedy of the Global Commons

So, you're walking down the street when out of nowhere you get jumped. The gang drag you down a lane, start pushing you around, and screaming all sorts of terrifying things: if you don't do what we say you are going to die and your family will die. Just stop moving, give us your wallet and everything will be fine. You don't want people to get hurt, do you?! Stop struggling, stop moving.

This is exactly what's happening on national and global levels. The pockets of taxpayers all over the world have been emptied of billions and the extortioners have secured promises of more "or else". These guys are shaking us down and FAR TOO many people think "if we just do what we're told it'll all be fine" - I can assure you that it won't be fine.

These thieves are restricting your freedom for their benefit not yours. You are "not allowed" to object to this treatment. You have to ask where they got the power to tell me and mine what they can and can't do, who they can and can't see, where they can and can't go? Collective Stockholm Syndrome means that your traumatised fellows are more terrified of those trying to save them than their own captors and now work with their kidnappers to quash dissent. 

The Master taught that you cannot rob the house of a strong man unless you tie him up first and we are being bound up with draconian legislation, threatened with fines and imprisonment at every turn, forced to endure ever greater restrictions and we are being fed the lies that "this is for your own good." But who is really profiting from this? Big Tech and supra-national corporations and they have zero financial incentive to restore things to the way they were and if restoring our rights adversely impacts their profits then the incentive is to maintain the restrictions on our rights.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, your life is not made safer when people take away your rights. Anyone seeking to do that is your enemy, not your friend.

People are being pushed into greater and greater dependence. The bit put aside for the rainy day is being devoured and soon people will be forced to accept the terms and conditions being enforced by corporate thugs and their political henchmen and economic slavery beckons.

When these thugs talk about sustainability they mean sustainable profits. Personal independence and national self reliance is a threat to their business model and needs to be "managed" out of existence. Do you really believe that the people who have gone to so much effort to con you out of your rights will just give them back? Your rights are worth money, serious money - they are a source of tremendous power - you won't get them back without a fight.
