An Analysis of Class Warfare in the USA
There are three distinct groups of people in America.
1. The Criminal Class. This is the group of people that basically run everything. It consists of central banks, big finance companies like Goldman Sachs that sell government debt and run hedge funds, and major multinational corporations (this includes a wide group, ranging from big media corporations to companies like Nike and Boeing). This is a very small group of people relatively speaking, but they own almost everything. The folks behind the New World Order obviously go here. 2. First Class. These people tend to be wealthy compared to most people, but for the most part are significantly beneath the Criminal Class. The most important thing about these people is that they actually benefit from the whole system -- although this does not mean they are bad or criminal people, which is probably the most important distinction between them and the Criminal Class. They simply benefit from the way things are structured. Examples include investors who benefit from inflationary monetary policy, and media stars whose careers benefit from the way big media works. 3. Second and Third Class. This is most people. Many of these people will in fact work for the "evil corporations" that are a part of the Criminal Class. Unlike the First Class, though, these people don't really benefit from the way the system works; they are too low on the totem pole. They have the most incentive for change, and the least to lose from the existing system collapsing. The images below are meant to illustrate. ![]() How to Improve This Situation and End Class Warfare Here's what each group can do: 1. The Criminal Class needs to get a conscience. This seems unlikely. More likely in my opinion is that their hubris and greed will grow until they self-destruct. Many 2012 kooks like myself are optimistic that the cosmological factors currently at work will make self-destruction of the Criminal Class increasingly likely over the next few years (let's say 10 years, just as an example). 2. The First Class is generally not looking to rock the boat; they benefit from the status quo. So the incentive is to be ignorant. The hope here is that there are some forward thinkers who understand this system is unsustainable and that working for real change is not only cool and righteous, but also to their advantage if they play it right. But that is a risk, and most are too uneducated to understand what is really going on, as well as understandably fearful. 3. The Lower Classes are in many ways quite similar to the First Class. Like the First Class they too are willfully ignorant; they think they are powerless, so why bother educating themselves about any of this stuff anyway? Nothing can be done, they tell themselves, this is just the way the world is. And besides, life is tough enough as it is, no need to challenge things and make it harder for yourself. Unlike the First Class, though, they don't benefit from this system. And their belief that they cannot change things becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. That's why I often don't have sympathy for my fellow Lower Class people. No one can help you if you're not willing to help yourself. Historically, artists tend to lead revolutions, as art tends to be one of the few things that can lift people out of apathy and inspire them. Unfortunately we don't have too many real artists (mainly just entertainers), and those that exist have trouble reaching an audience because the Criminal Class won't give them access to the means that will allow them to communicate their message. First Class doesn't have the incentive to help either, as the incentives of First Class and Criminal Class are aligned. The Internet is a potential salvation tool here, assuming it doesn't get regulated/censored. Still, though, a truly mega talent is needed -- a filmmaker, writer, musician....someone who can create an inspirational message. Alex Jones is my favorite example. We need more people like him. There is some degree of social mobility, particularly between the Lower Classes and the First Class. But of course, to get out of the grind of being in the Lower Class, you have to play along with the ignorance required to be in the First Class. There's not much room for awareness. And that, in a nutshell, is the problem. Ultimately any real solution requires awareness and a desire to live in accordance with the truth. It is quite simple, actually. Only the truth can set us free. I say it all the time, but that's because it's the most important thing to say. |
