The NBA-China Disaster Is a Stress Test for Capitalism

If you read Lesson 5 at www.agenda21course.com on the topic of Public/Private Partnerships (aka Crony Capitalism), you understand American Corporations with their massive wealth and power have long since crawled in bed with all levels of government. By doing so corporations, which supply widgets and services, now have a massive impact on what bills make it to the floor of Congress. In return the corporations sign on to advance Agenda 21 through their many social, economic, and environmental policies.

This should make those who value capitalism very concerned that the corporations, rather than our votes and desires, are determining the direction of the country and that capitalism, as it was meant to be, may not exist.

If that is not twisted enough, through a single tweet by Daryl Morey, the general manager of the Houston Rockets team in support of the Hong Kong protesters, America has been made painfully aware these same corporations may be practicing international Crony Capitalism. The same corporations, who are supporting legislation which is good for their bottom line but not necessarily good for the People at large, are at the same time denying America citizens their freedom of speech in order to avoid offending China, supporting crimes against humanity in China, and fostering a more positive picture of Communism here in America.

In other words, before the NBA/China kerfuffle most of us were only worried about American corporations being in bed with our government. Now we also have to worry about those same corporations being in bed with other governments-arguably to the detriment of the United States.

Lesson 5: Public Private Partnerships

Private Public PartnershipsThis is the fifth lesson in a series of ten lessons on Agenda 21, commonly known as Sustainable Development. Today we will learn…

How Public Private Partnerships Are Used by Government to Take Control of the Economy

A Public Private Partnership is sometimes referred to as a PPP or a 3P.

The definition for a Public Private Partnership is an exclusive partnership between a public entity and a private entity that uses the financial resources of the private sector to carry out the legal activities or functions of the public sector.

3P’s do not work in a free market way where competition decides who wins and who loses.  Continue reading

Get Woke Go Broke: Gillette Backflips After $12 Billion Toxic Masculinity Disaster — Hopes to Lure Sexist Pigs Back with New Ad Campaign

Crony Capitalism or Cronyism are just fancy terms used to describe companies who do the bidding of those in government in order to increase their bottom line. This blurs the line between the private sector and government. Unfortunately many of today’s large corporations, in an attempt to tap into the power and wealth on the Left, willingly embrace progressive issues.

Okay, perhaps(?) it is the corporations job to watch their bottom line, but as this story shows Gillette, a subsidiary of Proctor and Gamble, learned the hard way it would better serve its shareholders, if it listened to its customers-not to the Leftists. To read more click on this link.

What is Crony Capitalism?

This short video will provide a simple explanation of crony capitalism which may provide a good beginning to a larger effort to better understand how government and big business work together in their best interests (vs. the People’s best interest). To watch, click on this link.

We’re All Trespassers Now In The Face Of Government Land Grabs

It is critical every citizen understands the importance of the 5th Amendment which guarantees us the right to “life, liberty, and property”. Without property we lose our ability to provide for ourselves and our families. Further, without property to use for collateral, we have nothing against which to borrow to build our wealth. We then become little more than serfs to whatever governance has power over us.

Wind-Energy Sector Gets $176 Billion Worth of Crony Capitalism

Companies, when they accept subsidies to promote not-ready-for-prime-time alternative energies, are doing more harm than just taking money from the tax-payer’s wallets and damaging the federal budget. These companies in return for taking the federal dollars are expected to use their advertising dollars to indoctrinate the American citizen to the “reality” of Climate Change and the necessity of down-sizing their lives, their economy, and their freedoms?  Of equal harm, these companies are being bribed to abandon the free-market  principles that made these companies great in the first place.

Volkswagen’s Electric Shock

Economic equity/justice, one of the 3 E’s that drive Agenda 21 policies, requires a strong centralized government to take control of the entire economy, one company, one sector at a time,  forcing them to do the bidding of the government. Once this occurs the free market has been replaced by fascism. This article show how over time this occurs.

You should imagine as you read this article, that the government (and its minion the EPA) is the spider, who has woven its web, and Volkswagen is the fly, who admittedly allowed itself to get caught in the web, but once there is at the mercy of the spider. The outcome is a foregone conclusion. The fly, to get free of the web, will accede to any request/demand made by the spider-anything, even the loss of its autonomy-as long as the spider promises to not eat it. One-by-one all the flies are captured and put under the control of the spider.

And that, my friends, is how a free market is turned into a fascist regime!

Wells Fargo, Morgan Stanley Join Banks Edging Away From Coal

As stated in the short video, Agenda 21 Threat, to implement Agenda 21 a government will choose certain businesses to reward with certain perks (not necessarily is it always money). In return the government will expect the chosen business (or business sector) to support the government’s agenda. Sometimes this is called Crony Capitalism. If over time the government can gain enough control over the business (or business sector), to all extents and purposes the company is now being run by the government, and fascism is advanced. Perhaps you have heard people call GM (General Motors) Government Motors for this very reason.

This short article provides a perfect example of how a sector of our economy, the banking industry, has over time simply become an arm of the federal government and is now doing its bidding by helping to destroy the coal industry..  Please learn more by clicking on this link.

Stocks panic as United Healthcare merely THINKS about dropping out of Obamacare

Anyone who believes Obamacare has been poorly implemented and/or is bad for our country should be thrilled at signs Obamacare is on life-support. They should also enjoy reading this pithy and entertaining article on the topic by clicking on this link.

Unfortunately, immediately after United Healthcare made it concerns public Obama did what Obama does by promising to use our tax dollars to bail out the health care companies if they suffered losses due to their involvement in Obamacare. This health care bailout is part of the on-going effort by the Feds to maintain control of the health care industry-just another example of the Fed’s efforts to advance fascism in this industry.  The real question is, will the health care industry take the bait or will they leap out of the bed they share with the Feds-assuming the Feds allow them this option.
