Yes folks, another world war brewing in our near future. The good humans of WEF will sort out the details of which nation’s will be exterminated, and for the betterment of humanity, which will survive. I’m sure it won’t be the usual war, due to the assault on our climate from such a dirty event, but Gates and company have already set up plandemic 25, which should do all the dirty work without the mess. Enjoy your weekend 😊

I do not begrudge the elite their pow wow in Davos. Nor am I offended by their use of private luxury aircraft to get to Davos. (I just wish I was one of them!) They have worked hard all during the year to be able to qualify for the meeting. They have their ideas all worked out and ready to present to the other world makers and shakers. It aint easy being so important.

Charity dinners and speaking engagements at swank hotels and convention centers back home just do not measure up to the status that Davos gives to the elite. It is hard to get such recognition as Davos gives in any other venue. Davos is a place where one can actually change the world while making important connections with other leaders in a luxury venue.

So, please stop all the bellyaching about the elite always telling us to do as they say and not as they do. We all want to be important and be the teller and not the told. But only a few are born to the breed.

The rules and laws they promulgate are for the our (and their) own damn good. Obviously, the elite must be exempt from the rules they make for us so that they can meet and decide our future. They cannot just walk or bike to Davos. Now can they? And using commercial airlines is just not dignified or safe for very important persons. (And don't forget about the spread of Covid on such commercial transportation). No. The elite must be protected and pampered, so that they may make their decisions with a rested minds and healthy comforted bodies.

The elite are privileged because they are crucial to the well being of the world. If the elite are not privileged the world will definitely just collapse. And then what? Maybe it is already collapsing. But that is not because they didn't try hard last Davos meeting.

So, for us plebians who are insulted by the righteous actions of the elite, be informed that all that privilege is necessary to the good and efficient working of the world.

So.

How about a little trust in the new world order.

How about you just shut up and follow the rules being made for our own good.

Otherwise, well, there will be chaos and governments will collapse and there will be blood in the streets.

The elite have done their very best to insure that we all have a pleasant life of servitude and right thinking. Did I say pleasant. I meant peasant.

"A well ordered life of rules and laws is a good life."

Big Brother speaks the truth.

While the Davos men ponder how to get rid of billions of us, I wonder how the future would turn in our favor if a tungsten “rod of God” happened to fall from orbit on their conference? I doubt the security installations could prevent that quite offensive act...

So the Dec. 22 CPI was 6.5% based on a CPI of 7.5% the Dec. before. From a cost of goods standpoint that means what cost $1000 in Dec. 2020 is now approaching $1150, a nearly 15% increase. You don't hear anyone in the media mentioning this their just telling you that the CPI number (if its even real) decreased.

Looking at the "World Economic Forum" site, I see the two lists of "Top Ten Risks" over 2 years and over 10 years. These risks are color-coded as Economic, Environmental, Geopolitical, Societal or Technological. It is most curious that of these 20 risks called out by the World ECONOMIC Forum, NONE of them are categorized by them as ECONOMIC. How should I interpret that? Intentional misdirection, perhaps? Subtle admonition, perhaps, that the "WEF" has no actual interest or expertise in the "E" for which it stands?

Beautifully expressed. I'm rarely dissatisfied with your musings. May they continue for many years.

I love your daily dose of sarcastic reality. Im sure PVG is pounding away at the keyboard as I write this. I predict he will take issue with your use of the words "I don't know". But such as it is with people that do, "know it all".

So Bill, I have to chuckle when I read “half-word cluster”, as my mind immediately goes to the full-word, cluster f#€k. I do appreciate the wit you insert in your essays!

'in a drenched and soggy outback town that has not seen this much water since Noah left the Ark we sit and wonder why humans spend so much of their time arguing about nothing'? no matter where humans conglomerate, they always reflect on what life is, in that moment and how it might be otherwise .. but alas it's just sh*t and mud up to your eyeballs like it was in them trenches we've dug in countless wars around this planet .. so what's likely or make any difference to change from a bunch of detached old farts discussing their biases anywhere else on the planet .. if the viruses or other genetic research developments keep improving then the need for physical destruction ie war of any physical kind (nuclear etc) will become unnecessary as the total leveling of Ukraine is showing that even if the Puta-ins of this world survive, what will he do with a totally destroyed wasteland and no humans with the will power to rebuild anything .. only an idiot who wants to turn the clock back to his view of the 'good old days' is fantasizing in self destructive dreams .. there is no future even in warfare as humans once knew/practiced it in the last millennium. Our future lies somewhere out in front of our memories in entirely new visions of life on planet earth .. maybe like the Avatar movies we are inundated with .. as they say the fantasizes of one generation become the realty of the next .. or maybe not if you look at the most popular video games!!

Ah, yes, those “Davos Men”: “WEF is a sinister organization. It believes the common man is a dope – which, of course, he is. But it also believes that it – or rather its adherents, the great and the good from all over the world – are geniuses, which they are not. They are human too…just better at school…or better at getting their names in the paper…or simply lucky enough to have no tender feelings nor nuanced thoughts that might keep them from making fools of themselves. With no real weight – neither inner dignity nor outward-facing principles – they rise to the top, like plastic bottles, floating in a fetid swamp.”

Plastic bottles had not yet been invented in the 1870s when Henry James, still in his thirties, wrote a penetrating appreciation of Ivan Turgenev. Preternaturally wise for his years, James, like Bill Bonner, more than understood that the most important things about life on this sorry ball persisted: “Life is, in fact, a battle. On this point optimists and pessimists agree. Evil is insolent and strong; beauty enchanting but rare; goodness very apt to be weak; folly very apt to be defiant; wickedness to carry the day; imbeciles to be in great places, people of sense in small, and mankind generally, unhappy.”

If arrogance, has worked is working, why stop? Ignore WISDOM, and push on.

A two megaton device exploded at about 2000 feet would be about the best thing to happen for mankind for the next century. Unfortunately there is another whole set of wannabe tyrants waiting their turn to destroy mankind and the world economy. God save us from these central planner dolts.
