Demographic Winter and Population Growth

It is important to understand two concepts when thinking about the world population. The fear mongers would have you believe that the growth rate is linear or exponential in an unstoppable upward trend until the masses of humanity consume all the world’s resources. This is just wrong-headed when you don’t consider fertility rates and the necessary lag time for women to reach child bearing age. The facts are that while population in total may be increasing at the present, the rate of growth is decreasing in most countries (see URL link below).

Just to keep a population at a zero growth rate you must constantly replace the people who are dying from old age, illness, accidents, wars, etc. This replacement rate is generally considered to be 2.1 for developed countries and 2.3 for underdeveloped countries.

So in developed states we need a fertility rate of about 2.1 children per woman and in less developed states we need about 2.3 children per woman just to stay at zero growth.

Now, babies don’t just pop out immediately so you have to wait until the woman is of child bearing age plus nine months. This is a lag of say 20 years. Additionally, if fertility rates are below the replacement rates of 2.1 or 2.3, the shrinkage of the population will not be noticed for many years but when it is noticed the drop is dramatic, sudden and can feed on itself for generations. The unintended consequences of low fertility rates: 1) not enough young people to support the elderly; 2) aging work force; 3) necessity to import more fertile immigrants; and 4) resultant changes to the culture and standard of living.

The current fertility rate for the USA and Australia is 1.9 and for the UK and France is 2.0; China is 1.7 and Canada is 1.6; all below the necessary 2.1 to maintain zero growth.

The average total fertility rate in the European Union (EU-27) has been calculated at 1.59.

Most fertility rates are down world-wide

In an effort to better understand today’s political and economic structures, it is important to take a look back to discover from whence they came and how they arrived at the apex of the predominant power structure we see all around us today.

Like no other, Carroll Quigley gave us a back-stage introduction of the actual workings of the network who shaped yesterday’s world. (See: Anglo-American Establishment and Tragedy and Hope) In today’s world, we see these same forces, structures and techniques at work from the happy heirs of the power structure set into motion by the Anglo-American Establishment. Some of the names have changed, but there exists an unmistakable lineage that can be exposed by fact, not conjecture or theory.

After the fall of the Soviet Union on December 26, 1991, the “Military-Industrial Complex”  President Eisenhower warned American Citizens about was in search for a new enemy and a “New Pearl Harbor” in PNAC’s own words to sustain the flow of funds.

PNAC’s first public act was to release a “Statement of Principles” on June 3, 1997.  In this statement of principles, you will find the following statement . . .

Section V of Rebuilding America’s Defenses, entitled “Creating Tomorrow’s Dominant Force”, includes the sentence: “Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event––like a new Pearl Harbor”  [emphasis mine].

“Old John D. Rockefeller and his 19th century fellow-capitalists were convinced of one absolute truth: that no great monetary wealth could be accumulated under the impartial rules of a competitive laissez faire society. The only sure road to the acquisition of massive wealth was monopoly: drive out your competitors, reduce competition, eliminate laissez-faire, and above all get state protection for your industry through compliant politicians and government regulation. This last avenue yields a legal monopoly, and a legal monopoly always leads to wealth.

This robber baron schema is also, under different labels, the socialist plan. The difference between a corporate state monopoly and a socialist state monopoly is essentially only the identity of the group controlling the power structure. The essence of socialism is monopoly control by the state using hired planners and academic sponges. On the other hand, Rockefeller, Morgan, and their corporate friends aimed to acquire and control their monopoly and to maximize its profits through influence in the state political apparatus; this, while it still needs hired planners and academic sponges, is a discreet and far more subtle process than outright state ownership under socialism. Success for the Rockefeller gambit has depended particularly upon focusing public attention upon largely irrelevant and superficial historical creations, such as the myth of a struggle between capitalists and communists, and careful cultivation of political forces by big business. We call this phenomenon of corporate legal monopoly—market control acquired by using political influence—by the name of corporate socialism.”

So much of what we read today is information about information with very little new core information to help move the general discourse in consequential ways or to increase understanding in meaningful ways.  We seem destined to go over and over the information we are provided by the many gatekeepers of truth and knowledge;  or if we question the ‘well-established facts’ with conjecture we are sentenced to be categorized under the weaponized term of ‘Conspiracy Theorist‘.   The information provided in the book below, brings new light and new understanding based on 20 years of meticulous work and two years examining the secret papers of the ‘Network’ by an Ivy League Historian named  Carroll Quigley.

Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution: The Remarkable True Story of the American Capitalists Who Financed the Russian Communists

Wall Street and the Bolshevik revMany of us have taken the time to discover how the Federal Reserve was brought into existence by a few self-serving and very dishonest private bankers back in 1913; I doubt many have looked into the history of the Bolshevik Revolution October of 1917, which was financed and carried out by some of the same characters who brought us the Federal Reserve Act of 1913.

What I can tell you about the history of Russia, is  tyrants have ruled the peoples located there since the beginning of written history; so it was with amazement I learned Russians had a real chance at freedom after the overthrow of the Russian Empire which had existed from 1721 to February 1917.  For eight months –between February and October of 1917–  Russia was ruled by a provisional government.  During this eight month period of time, there was a strong Libertarian movement, and the Russian people had a real chance at freedom; but this chance was eliminated by the same folks who brought America the Federal Reserve. In fact, one of the major actors who helped finance the enslavement of the Russian people was none other than William Boyce Thompson  of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York from 1914 to 1919.

As a financially weak and corrupt U.S. –having wasted its treasure on pointless wars, gluttonous foreign bankers and crony pals– foolishly tries to bully Russia and China, this duo will have none of it. China and Russia are now moving further and further away from a possible compromise with the old mono-polar world of the ‘Anglo-American Establishment’ represented today by the US, EU & NATO. Everywhere you look these two old adversaries (China and Russia) are forging new agreements with each other ($400bn Gazprom deal) and other nations (BRICS, Africa, Argentina, etc.); at the same time, Russia and China are preparing for war … investing heavily in their military to counter the rabid U.S. foreign policy intent on encircling both Russia and China with double-dealing NATO and their legions of murderous proxy forces; both are preparing for an unnecessary war fomented for unknown reasons by the U.S.; while the U.S.’s vassal states are pulled along in the wake of the once great and mighty U.S. Ship, powering full-speed ahead over an unknown and unknowable abyss unaware of the jagged rocks below.

ISIS Deception

ISIS Deception

Folks, you are being lied to and deceived by U.S. Government and the media talking heads. Here are the facts:

The U.S. Stated geopolitical strategy since 1992 (Wolfowitz Doctrine written in 1992 and the resultant Project for the New American Century manifesto written in 2000 laid out plans for foreign nation destabilization and nation-building by America) is to destabilize the Middle East which includes seven (7) countries: Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Iran. That is the plan the U.S. is currently operating on. This has nothing to do with ISIS or the beheading of the two American journalists. The beheadings only served to move American opinion polls by about 24% in favor of bombing ISIS.

Israel is on board with this strategy since it will keep its enemies fighting amongst themselves.

Saudi Arabia is on board with this strategy since it will promote their radical version of Islam called Wahhabism “extremist pseudo-Sunni movement”. It also will guarantee their oil supremacy over Iran since if they can destroy Syria and stop the proposed Iran-Iraq-Syria Gas Pipeline. This pipeline would allow Syria and Iran to supply Western Europe with gas.

Qatar is on board with the U.S. Destabilization Strategy since they have a vested interest in stopping the Iran-Iraq-Syria Gas Pipeline.

Turkey is on board because they are a NATO member and they basically will not wipe their arse without permission from the U.S.

So the Grand Chessboard is set.

Donetsk Republic Sends Captured Ukrainian Soldiers Home to Mothers and Wives

Leave a reply

ukraine-23600_640Folks, it is important to remember that the war in Ukraine was a creation of the U.S. and NATO, not Ukraine or Russia. After spending $5 billion of your tax dollars to foment civil unrest in Ukraine, the U.S. has removed the democratically elected government and installed its own puppet. The IMF has promised massive loans to the new U.S. puppet government.  Kiev, the capital of Ukraine has been bombing civilian targets in Eastern Ukraine indiscriminately. The video below is a capture of Kiev (US / NATO backed) soldiers who surrendered to the militia in Eastern Ukraine now called the Donetsk Republic. This new republic, represents their attempt to separate from the US controlled Western Ukraine and secure peace and democracy. What you are hearing from Washington and their state media gatekeepers are lies. This is an orchestrated fight to surround Russia with NATO forces which violates an agreement that the West made to Russia after the fall of the Berlin Wall. The U.S. is trying to bully Russia and foment a confrontation with Russia. Don’t be the fool here. Don’t support yet another illegal war. Get a clue.  -db

PCR (Paul Craig Roberts):

“Donetsk Republic Sends Captured Ukrainian Soldiers Home to Mothers and Wives”

“This is an extremely interesting 9 minute video from the Donetsk Republic. It shows extraordinary humane treatment and release of captured Ukrainian soldiers. The Christian behavior of the Donetsk Republic puts to shame the crude barbarians who rule in America and Europe and the media shills who whore for the Western barbarians.”
