The elite want to tightly control almost everything that we do, say and
think. When most people think of “tyranny”, they think of thugs with
guns and little dictators running
around
barking orders at everyone. But that is not how the elite are
accomplishing their goals these days. They want us to actually believe
that we have freedom and that we are choosing our own leaders, but in
the background they are exerting “soft power” in a way that is
absolutely ruthless.
They fund the political campaigns of our
politicians, they own nearly all of the large corporations and financial
institutions, they exert very tight control over the media and their
agenda is being promoted through the education systems of virtually
every nation on the planet. What the elite are doing is not illegal.
In fact, they use the government and they use the law to accomplish
their purposes.
That is one reason why the elite love big government.
For them, it is an instrument of control. The larger the government is,
the easier it is to watch, track, monitor and control the rest of us.
As you read this, a “total domination control grid” is being constructed
all around us that is far beyond anything that George Orwell ever
dreamed of. This system is advancing on hundreds of different fronts,
and it is getting tighter and more restrictive with each passing day.
We may think that we still have a certain degree of liberty, but if you
start doing things that the system does not like, the system has a way
of getting you back in line very quickly. In the end, it is all about
control.
There are many among the elite that actually believe that a
tightly controlled society that is dominated by government institutions
that they control is what is best for humanity. Many of them honestly
believe that society would descend into chaos without a strong hand
guiding it. Many of them truly are convinced that those that are
“enlightened” are doing a noble thing by guiding humanity into the
“bright future” that the elite are designing for them. But of course
the freedoms and the liberties of the common people must be greatly
limited in order to get us to that “bright future”. We are like cattle
that need to be penned in for our own good. This is how the elite
actually think. I spent many years being educated by them and rubbing
shoulders with them. They should not be trusted. Once our liberties
and freedoms are gone, they will be nearly impossible to get back. And
once the elite have total control, we will be faced with a tyranny
unlike anything humanity has ever seen before.
The following are 29 signs that the elite are transforming society into a total domination control grid…
1. A new bill in the U.S. Senate would allow more than 20 different government agencies to read your email
without a search warrant.
2. Next generation facial recognition cameras that can identify a person in less than a second and “
send authorities all known intelligence about anyone who enters a camera’s field of vision” are being put up in southern California.
3. A highly sophisticated surveillance grid known as “
Trapwire”
is being installed in major cities and at “high value targets” all over
the United States. Unfortunately, most Americans do not even realize
that it exists.
4. Police departments all over America are beginning to deploy
unmanned surveillance drones in
the skies over their cities. But don’t think that a drone is not
watching you just because you don’t live in a major city. The truth is
that the federal government has been using unmanned surveillance drones
to spy on farmers
in Iowa and Nebraska. There could be a drone over your house right now and you might not ever know it.
5. Individual politicians know more about you than
they ever have before. The amount of information that the Obama campaign
has compiled on potential voters is
absolutely frightening…
If you voted this election season, President Obama
almost certainly has a file on you. His vast campaign database includes
information on voters’ magazine subscriptions, car registrations,
housing values and hunting licenses, along with scores estimating how
likely they were to cast ballots for his reelection.
6. The UK is often five or ten years ahead of much
of the rest of the world in implementing “Big Brother” police state
measures. Over there it is now against the law
to insult someone with your speech.
If you say something that is “likely” to insult a Muslim or a
homosexual you could end up being dragged in front of a judge. It is
only a matter of time before we see these kinds of laws all over the
planet.
7. Could you imagine the government telling you what the temperature inside your own home can be? A
new law in Francewould do exactly that…
Heating a French home could soon require an income
tax consultation or even a visit to the doctor under legislation to
force conservation in the nation’s $46 billion household energy market.
A bill adopted by the lower house this month would set prices
that homes pay based on wages, age and climate. Utilities Electricite de
France and GDF Suez will use the data to reward consumers who cut power
and natural gas usage and penalize those whom regulators decide are
wasteful.
8. Control freak bureaucrats love to tell others how
to run their lives. For example, one man down in Orlando, Florida was
recently ordered to
rip out the vegetable garden that
he was growing in his front yard. Will we eventually get to the point
where even the smallest details of our lives are micromanaged by the
government?
9. Most Americans don’t realize this, but the DNA of almost every newborn baby in America is collected and stored
by the government. What plans do they have for all of this DNA?
10. All over America, schools are beginning to require students to carry IDs with
RFID microchips in them wherever they go. Fortunately, some students are
fighting back…
The San Antonio sophomore who opposed microchipping
student IDs that would track their every movement has inspired a
groundswell of 300 students in her huge district who now refuse to wear
the identification chips over religious, personal privacy, safety and
civil liberties concerns. In addition, some 700 other people have signed
petitions opposing the microchipping program.
11. There is more crossover between our education
system and our law enforcement system than ever before. An increasing
number of schools in the United States have police officers roaming
their hallways, and today there are
more than 70,000 children behind bars in America.
12. When you rely on FEMA to take care of you, it
can literally feel like you are in prison. The following is a
description of what life is like
in one FEMA camp that was set up in New Jersey in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy…
“Sitting there last night you could see your breath,”
displaced resident Brian Sotelo told the Asbury Park Press. “At (Pine
Belt) the Red Cross made an announcement that they were sending us to
permanent structures up here that had just been redone, that had washing
machines and hot showers and steady electric, and they sent us to tent
city. We got (expletived).”
Sotelo said Blackhawk helicopters patrol the skies “all day and
night” and a black car with tinted windows surveys the camp while the
government moves heavy equipment past the tents at night. According to
the story, reporters aren’t even allowed in the fenced complex, where
lines of displaced residents form outside portable toilets. Security
guards are posted at every door, and residents can’t even use the toilet
or shower without first presenting I.D.
“They treat us like we’re prisoners,” Ashley Sabol told Reuters.
“It’s bad to say, but we honestly feel like we’re in a concentration
camp.”
13. Your cell phone collects information about you
wherever you go, and law enforcement authorities in the United States
requested that cell phone data be turned over to them
more than a million times in 2011 alone.
14. The federal government has created
an iPhone app that is designed to encourage all of us to take photos of “suspicious activity” and report our neighbors to the authorities.
15. The U.S. government is increasingly
using spyware to monitor the behavior of their employees while they are at work.
16. According
to three NSA whistleblowers,
the agency “has the capability to do individualized searches, similar
to Google, for particular electronic communications in real time through
such criteria as target addresses, locations, countries and phone
numbers, as well as watch-listed names, keywords, and phrases in email.”
17. Private corporations are gathering every shred
of information about you that they possible can. One of the largest
companies involved in “
mining our data” is known as Acxiom. It turns out that Acxiom has compiled information on
more than 190 million people in the United States alone…
The company fits into a category called database
marketing. It started in 1969 as an outfit called Demographics Inc.,
using phone books and other notably low-tech tools, as well as one
computer, to amass information on voters and consumers for direct
marketing. Almost 40 years later, Acxiom has detailed entries for more
than 190 million people and 126 million households in the U.S., and
about 500 million active consumers worldwide. More than 23,000 servers
in Conway, just north of Little Rock, collect and analyze more than 50
trillion data ‘transactions’ a year.
18. We are being trained to give up our privacy and
our dignity in the name of “security”. For example, what the TSA did
recently to one woman who was dying of leukemia
was absoutely shameful…
A dying woman says a a security pat-down at Sea-Tac Airport left her embarrassed in front of crowds of people. Michelle Dunaj says screeners checked under bandages from recent
surgeries and refused to give her a private search when she requested
one.
19. According to
one recent survey, nearly one-third of all Americans would be willing to submit to a “TSA body cavity search” in order to fly.
20. Law enforcement authorities all over the United
States will soon be driving around in unmarked vehicles looking inside
your cars and even under your clothes
using the same backscatter technology currently being used by the TSA at U.S. airports…
American cops are set to join the US military in
deploying American Science & Engineering’s Z Backscatter Vans, or
mobile backscatter radiation x-rays. These are what TSA officials call
“the amazing radioactive genital viewer,” now seen in airports around
America, ionizing the private parts of children, the elderly, and you
(yes you).
These pornoscannerwagons will look like regular anonymous vans,
and will cruise America’s streets, indiscriminately peering through the
cars (and clothes) of anyone in range of its mighty isotope-cannon. But
don’t worry, it’s not a violation of privacy. As AS&E’s vice
president of marketing Joe Reiss sez, “From a privacy standpoint, I’m
hard-pressed to see what the concern or objection could be.”
21. A company known as BRS Labs has developed
“pre-crime surveillance cameras” that supposedly can identify criminal
activity before it happens. These cameras are being installed at major
transportation hubs
all over San Francisco.
22. According
to Gizmodo,
the Department of Homeland Security will soon be using laser-based
scanners that can scan your body, your clothes and your luggage from 164
feet away…
Within the next year or two, the U.S. Department of
Homeland Security will instantly know everything about your body,
clothes, and luggage with a new laser-based molecular scanner fired from
164 feet (50 meters) away. From traces of drugs or gun powder on your
clothes to what you had for breakfast to the adrenaline level in your
body—agents will be able to get any information they want without even
touching you.
And without you knowing it.
The technology is so incredibly effective that, in November 2011, its inventors were subcontracted by In-Q-Tel to work with the US Department of Homeland Security. In-Q-Tel is a company founded “in February 1999 by a group of private citizens at
the request of the Director of the CIA and with the support of the U.S.
Congress.” According to In-Q-Tel, they are the bridge between the
Agency and new technology companies.
Their plan is to install this molecular-level scanning in airports and border crossings all across the United States.
23. A complex network of
automated license plate readers carefully
track the movements of millions of vehicles as they move in and out of
Washington D.C. and the surrounding suburbs. Most people do not even
know that they are there.
24. The FBI is spending
a billion dollars to
develop a biometric identification system that will reportedly be far
more sophisticated than anything that law enforcement in the United
States has ever had before….
The US Federal Bureau of Investigation has begun
rolling out its new $1 billion biometric Next Generation Identification
(NGI) system. In essence, NGI is a nationwide database of mugshots, iris
scans, DNA records, voice samples, and other biometrics, that will help
the FBI identify and catch criminals — but it is how this biometric
data is captured, through a nationwide network of cameras and photo
databases, that is raising the eyebrows of privacy advocates.
Until now, the FBI relied on IAFIS, a national fingerprint
database that has long been due an overhaul. Over the last few months,
the FBI has been pilot testing a facial recognition system — and soon, detectives will also be able to search the system for other biometrics such as DNA records and iris scans.
25. If the government decides that you are a “bad
guy”, they can put you on a “no fly list” that will ban you from flying
indefinitely. This can be done to you at any time, without any notice,
and you won’t be told that it has happened. In fact, as one prepper
discovered recently, you might only find out that you are on the list when you try to board a flight.
26. Those that revere individual liberty are now being labeled as “
potential terrorists” in official U.S. government documents.
27. A National Guard whistleblower
recently revealed that members of his unit were told that “doomsday preppers” will be treated as “terrorists” when civil unrest breaks out.
28. One family in Idaho recently had their home raided by a SWAT team because a computer identified them as “
constitutionalists” after someone had phoned in and complained about a domestic disturbance at their address.
29. Today, the mainstream media in the United States is totally dominated
by just six giant corporations.
Those corporations own television networks, cable channels, movie
studios, newspapers, magazines, publishing houses, music labels and
large numbers of popular websites. The way that almost every American
looks at the world is being constantly influenced by these media
corporations every single day.
Please share this list with as many people as you can. We desperately need to wake people up while there is still time.
