Listening to Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum, it became clear that his programs represent the new modernized Fascism of our day. Who is Klaus Schwab who brags of restructuring the world? Wikipedia says, “German engineer, economist and founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF). He has acted as the W.E.F.’s chairman since founding the organization in 1971…
“His parents had moved from Switzerland to Germany during the Third Reich in order for his father to assume the role of director at Escher Wyss AG, an industrial company and contractor for then Nazi Germany.” They could have remained in Switzerland and neutrality during the war but instead chose to help the Mussolini/Hitler cabal.
Continuing on, Wikipedia reads, “Schwab has authored or co-authored several books. Some consider him to be ‘an evangelist’ for ‘stakeholder capitalism.’ In January 2017 Steven Poole in The Guardian criticised Schwab’s Fourth Industrial Revolution book, pointing out that ‘the internet of things’ would probably be hackable. He also criticised Schwab for showing that future technologies may be used for good or evil, but not taking a position on the issues, instead offering only vague policy recommendations.”
Perhaps this is because he and his cohorts wish to use the internet of things to manipulate and eventually control the masses.
Influence on the Future Political Landscape
Also from Wikipedia’s article, “According to the Transnational Institute (TNI), the Forum is planning to replace a recognised democratic model with a model where a self-selected group of ‘stakeholders’ make decisions on behalf of the people. The think tank summarises that we are increasingly entering a world where gatherings such as Davos are ‘a silent global coup d’état’ to capture governance.
“In a 2017 interview, Schwab said that what we are very proud of is the young generation like Prime Minister [Justin] Trudeau… We penetrate the cabinet. So yesterday I was at a reception for Prime Minister Trudeau and I know that half of his cabinet, or even more than half of his cabinet, are actually Young Global Leaders.”
The other major leader of the Forum is George Soros. Soros also has a potentially troubling Fascist background. He is Hungarian. The Nazis came late to Hungary because, until early 1944, Germany and Hungary were allies. But when they did arrive, their orders were to put the “Final Solution” into effect with deliberate speed. Soros’s father, a Jewish lawyer in Budapest, secured fake Christian identities for himself, his wife, and his two sons following the German invasion. Soros’ current supporters say his father beguiled and deceived the Gestapo. But critics say the teenage Soros and his dad sold out their own people to the Fascist death camps.
A Spiritual Perspective on Modern Forces of Decadence
The evil unleashed upon the world in WWII is almost beyond comprehension. The world saw evil multiply far beyond anything in the past, like concentration camps, genocides, weaponized poison gas, the bombing of civilian populations. The war found soldiers massacred by the millions. The horrible programs of the evil Communist empire killed 100 million of their own citizens. The box cars taking victims of the Fascists and Communists to their deaths were done by men who are gone –– but the demons who encouraged them are still with us. Are they reformed? No! They are planning to bring this evil back to the world the first chance that comes along. The COVID-19 crises is an opportunity they have been exploiting.
Ephesians 6:11-12, “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”
We are really in a struggle against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. We need to be informed and strong. Deception is a staple of evil empires. Therefore these new Fascists would not use that label. Their street thugs in the 1930’s –– called black shirts and brown shirts –– today give themselves a new name. They are the antifascist or “Antifa.” But they also wear black and and do the same things as in the past; try and terrorize and brutalize the political opposition. They are modern day “storm troopers” for the new Fascism. Further, the new system is brainwashing our youth like the original Fascist education system.
Christians Catapulted U. S. into Economic and Scientific Leadership
Beliefs are vital to economic and scientific success. The west was clearly ahead of other parts of the world. Why? Christianity led the west to freedom, capitalism and overall success. Max Weber, a German social scientist, argues that capitalism grew out of the Puritan strain of Calvinism. They believed that one could show that they were truly predestined for salvation by success in business. However they also did not believe in flashy signs of success like mansions etc. Therefore they had to reinvest their gains through banks. This capital would grow other enterprises. They and other denominations pushed the protestant work ethic as well.
2 Thessalonians 3:10, “For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat.” (NKJV)
The Puritans landed in the Mayflower to begin the New England colonies. The most prominent group in early American colonies were the Puritans and this may account for much of the economic success of the colonies. Western Civilizations also were the first to facilitate growth through global banking and insurance. Some recent surveys indicate that younger Americans now believe more in socialism than capitalism. Why is this true? The younger generation is confused by misguided education. Public schools do not teach the significance of the collapse of the Berlin Wall or the collapse of the evil Socialist Communist Empire, which was the greatest economic disaster and failure of the 20th century.
Giving too much power to anyone trying to create a socialist paradise will fail. People without God are too sinful and carnal. Absolute power corrupts absolutely! Socialism under any form or leadership CANNOT WORK, because the system is a demotivator as far as productivity is concerned. You cannot redistribute what has not been produced. The low producers are rewarded regardless of their lack of production so they then do even less. The high producers get the same meager income as the others so they are now demotivated and also produce less.
“Income Redistribution” is Stealing
Government enforced income redistribution is in violation of one of God’s irrevocable laws. It will make matters worse. However, charity used wisely is good. Money should be used wisely with our priorities on God and His righteousness. Capitalism rewards people for efficient production and good customer service. Total Socialism is designed around big government management and ownership of all resources. This cannot be achieved without coercion and force. The people will have no free choices regarding products.
Deuteronomy 30:19 reads, “I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life…” (NKJV)
Powerfully, God supports free choice. Fascism uses mega corporations to limit the choices and control of the people. In contrast, capitalism relies on persuasion and marketing. Consumer demand decides which products and at what price. The public can say no to one product and choose another. In a free market economy the people decide, not a few elites at the top. Carl Marx believed that the enlightened ones should run all of society. America is designed on freedom for the individual. Within His laws, God also believes in free choice in this age. Pray for God’s blessings and protection, and the throttling of the new fascism which is trying to crush individual freedoms and has widespread power throughout the globe.
Historian Lord Acton stated that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Intellectuals argue that socialism and fascism failed because evil corrupt dictators have run the systems. If they were in charge it would be a Utopian paradise. But the system of forced decision making and spending other people’s money by force corrupts leadership, period. Power is corrupting! All the totally socialist governments have gone in that direction, including the last government to go in that direction, Venezuela. Venezuela used to be the most prosperous nation in Central America. Now it is a brutal dictatorship with people fleeing starvation!
How Do Free Markets Force Efficiency?
1. A firm is either efficient or it is bankrupt. Survival of the fittest is driven by market forces. A business is either competitive, or it will bleed customers who will find other firms to supply their needs.
2. Competition puts downward pressure on prices. One of the strongest laws of human economic behavior is the law of supply and demand. Things that are plentiful will have lower prices, and rare products, or those in short supply, will have higher prices. Competition puts an inexorable downward pressure on prices. When a firm can eliminate some of the marketplace competition with the iron hand of government through Fascism, customers will suffer.
3. The profit motive drives firms to please customers. Profits force producers to cater to the wants and desires of their many customers. Market forces are good for society.
4. Consumer demand directs productivity to areas of greatest need. Decisions made by millions of consumers direct the economy toward pleasing the customers. Bureaucrats cannot predict consumer demand accurately and waste resources.
5. Social programs must help people without disincentivizing work ethic. Saving and being responsible with resources is the best policy.
6. Some government regulation is necessary. However, over regulation diminishes economic freedom and prosperity.
7. You cannot redistribute what is not produced. Class warfare has led to disaster in the past. Socialism’s redistribution violates at least two of God’s infallible commandments; the commandment against stealing and the commandment against coveting. Class warfare encourages both coveting and stealing. Class warfare also impoverishes the poor and working class in the following ways:
1. When you raise taxes on capital you get less job-creating capital and a decline in new enterprises.
2. When you raise taxes on income you get less consumer spending and less jobs.
Capitalism has lifted hundreds of millions out of poverty to middle class and higher incomes in China and India, and other poor nations have benefitted once they introduced even limited capitalist policies.
Cautious Improvements Are Needed In Social Programs
Parts of our safety net for citizens could use improvement. Helpful principles should guide policy makers for such programs. Politicians not radicalized should gradually improve the system. Huge mistakes are thereby avoided. Social programs should be designed to help, not addict. Manage social programs like Medicaid so that waste is not encouraged. Free services are often abused.
