It's sad to say with such finality, but a
universal fact of existence is that most of the people you meet in this
life are fundamentally and functionally ignorant. Not necessarily
stupid, but certainly ignorant. Ignorance comes not from a lack of
intelligence, but from a denial of knowledge and truth. That is to say,
ignorance takes hold when people decide to act as though they know and
understand a thing, even if they do not. Ignorance prevails when a
society or nation chooses to value the appearance of expertise, to value
the theater of overconfidence, and to cheer for the bluster of morons
rather than admit that they have unanswered questions on subjects they
do not yet grasp. For nothing is worse for the self absorbed than to
acknowledge that they do not know.
Entire nations have fallen throughout history because of this terrible weakness...
By extension, such ignorance is not just an inherent disease but also
an easily exploitable disease. When we refuse to think critically and
examine our surroundings thoroughly, we become like grazing gazelles
oblivious to the predators encircling us in the tall grass. And, just
as there are predatory individuals that hide amongst us, there are are
also predatory oligarchs that camouflage themselves as benevolent
politicos and financial professionals standing above us. Normal
predators we fear, establishment predators we invite into our homes as
protectors, saviors, and partners.
The disease of ignorance leaves us vulnerable to many other plagues,
including literal plagues like the Ebola virus. When we take the
establishment at its word concerning the threat of Ebola outbreak, we
make ourselves vulnerable. When people assume that the worst could
never happen to them, history shows us that it inevitably does.
The recent discovery of an Ebola infected patient in Dallas, Texas
has led to reasonable concern from the general population, but
mainstream media efforts along with CDC and White House spin have
subdued any practical response by the citizenry. The constant droning
voice of the establishment claims there is nothing to be worried about;
that even if there was an outbreak in the U.S., it would be quickly
squashed by highly prepared medical response teams.
First and foremost, the existence of just one Ebola infected person
within America's borders indicates a likelihood of others, or the
possibility of others in the near future unless policies and procedures
are changed. As far as I can tell, the government has no intention of
introducing rational fail-safes such as requiring mandatory quarantine
for those seeking to reenter the U.S. from known outbreak regions,
shutting down unrestricted travel into the country from countries with
Ebola, training hospitals properly in the identification of the disease,
or committing mass resources to quelling Ebola in hot zones before it
reaches our shores, at least not in time to make a difference.
Secondly, the establishment also has no intention of giving the
general public accurate information as to the behavior and dangers of
Ebola. Those I have spoken with in the medical field including some who
work within major city hospitals have related to me that the CDC has
not been honest in its assessment of the probability of outbreak. For
example, the CDC is consistently reminding the public that Ebola is not
an “airborn” disease, and this is technically true as far as the science
indicates. However, they forget to mention that it is indeed a
“droplet born” disease, meaning, it can travel through the air carried
in an infected cough or sneeze. The tight quarters of an airplane make
for a perfect petri dish, with droplets and particulates passing back
and forth through the same space and oxygen for hours at a time. The
spread of Ebola is nowhere near as containable as the CDC claims.
I have been told that most hospitals are completely unprepared to
fend off an outbreak of a virus as destructive as Ebola. Little to no
standardized training has taken place, and some facilities are only now
putting together a list of emergency procedures. Human error within the
chain of care also occurs often, as we saw in Dallas, Texas, and these
errors can lead to greater infection in a hospital environment.
CDC and WHO efforts in countries like Liberia have been so
ineffective and halfhearted it leads one to question why their budgets
are in the billions of dollars? Where is all their capital and their
resources going if not to bring an unprecedented hammer down on a
clearly dangerous outbreak of Ebola? Why is the virus being allowed to
flourish rather than being destroyed right where it started? Where has
the full force of the CDC been for the past several months while death
gestates in Africa?
The one legitimate function of government, any government, is to
protect the right of the people to pursue their own life, liberty, and
happiness. I think stopping the invasion of mortal viruses would fall
into this category. The one job our government is MANDATED to do, and
it refuses to do it. Why?
I have made the point many times in the past and I'll make it here
again; when a catastrophe takes place, or a crisis is imminent, ask
yourself, who ultimately benefits? I believe that the lack of strong
prevention response from our government, an inadequacy which is obvious
to all of the health care workers I have talked with and to anyone who
has the sense to do their own research, could be absolutely deliberate.
I believe the spread of Ebola may be desired by certain power brokers,
and here is why:
The Perfect Cover Event
I have been warning for quite some time that the banking
establishment in particular is well aware that an economic collapse of
incredible proportions is coming. In fact, they have done everything in
their power to make one possible. This collapse, according to my
research, is designed to clear the way through monetary carpet bombing
for a new international Bretton Woods-style agreement which will plant
the foundation of a truly global economic system centralized and
controlled by a highly select few elites. Needless to say, the
internationalists would prefer not to take the blame for such a
calamity.
Regional or widespread war, terrorism, cyber attacks, etc, are all
useful vehicles to conjure mass confusion, and can also be used as
scapegoats for the eventual downfall of our economy. That said, a viral
pandemic truly surpasses them all in effectiveness. All other
tragedies could easily be tied to the first “domino” or “linchpin” (as
Rand Corporation calls it) of Ebola transmission, but the strategy goes
deeper than this...
An Act Of Nature
Even though most people are well aware of the fact that governments
have been engineering biological weapons for decades, few people think
political leadership would ever use them at all, let alone use them on
the people they are tasked to protect. Even with the complacency and
inaction of our government in terms of the response to Ebola, the
general assumption by most of the American population will be that any
viral outbreak is a product of nature, not of men.
Acts of nature are not things that the common man can easily rebel
against. People rebel against governments and corrupt despots all the
time, but not the plague. If a viral pandemic strikes, nearly
everything a government does after the fact, no matter how corrupt or
destructive, can be rationalized as necessary for the greater good of
the greater number. If anyone does rebel, they will be labeled as pure
evil, for they are now disrupting the government's ability to stop the
pandemic from spreading, and thus, are partly responsible for the mass
deaths that follow.
During a viral outbreak, government becomes mother, father, nurse and
protector. No matter how abusive they are, most people will still look
to them for safety and guidance, primarily because they have no
knowledge of disease. What they do not understand, they will fear, and
fear always drives the ignorant into the arms of tyrants. One should
also take into consideration the fact that most globalists lean towards
the ideology of eugenics and promote the concept of population
reduction. A pandemic would fulfill this desire nicely...
Rationalized Economic Collapse
Who would question the event of an economic collapse in the wake of
an Ebola soaked nightmare? Who would want to buy or sell? Who would
want to come in contact with strangers to generate a transaction? Who
would even leave their house? Ebola treatment in first world nations
has advantages of finance and a cleaner overall health environment, but
what if economic downturn happens simultaneously? America could
experience third world status very quickly, and with it, all the
unsanitary conditions that result in an exponential Ebola death rate.
The treasury, labor department, and private Federal Reserve have gone
to vast lengths to skew statistics and rig markets with trillions in
fiat dollars. Despite historic numbers of Americans falling off
unemployment rolls, imploding shipping and manufacturing statistics, and
the U.S. teetering on the edge of global “de-dollarization”, a large
portion of the citizenry has been led to believe that economic recovery
is assured. What they do not understand is that fiscal implosion is
unavoidable, and the whole bull market is a circus designed to distract.
Amidst even a moderate or controlled viral scenario, stocks and bonds
will undoubtedly crash, a crash that was going to happen anyway. The
international banks who created the mess get off blameless, while Ebola,
an act of nature, becomes the ultimate scapegoat for every disaster
that follows.
Rationalized Travel Restrictions
If you want to lock down the movement of a population to prevent the
spread of dissenting groups or ideas, I can't think of a better way than
to claim it is to prevent the spread of a deadly virus. Our government
and world health officials are approaching Ebola with an attitude of
nonchalance right now, because prevention is NOT part of the plan. When
Ebola strikes hard within our country, that is when they will finally
decide that strict measures are needed. Suddenly, those borders that
they could never secure before will become impassable for you and I.
And traveling between states or perhaps even counties may be
extraordinarily difficult. “Papers please...” will become the new
mantra of petty authority.
Forced Health Measures
Do not be surprised if an Ebola vaccine of some kind suddenly appears
on the market just as the situation begins to turn tragic. And, do not
be surprised if said vaccine is a total sham that ends up making more
people sick. Expect that forced vaccinations will take place,
especially as a prerequisite for receiving treatment from CDC or FEMA
hazmat facilities. Expect that these facilities will become nothing
more than obscure prisons for the sick where people quietly die. Expect
that every American will be required to be tested and screened, with
biometric data carefully stored, beginning with airport travel (once the
virus is already entrenched). The options are endless for abuse in
terms of totalitarian health laws when the public thinks they could end
up bleeding from every orifice and dying of liver failure.
Rationalized Martial Law
Imagine if some Americans decide they don't like being poked,
prodded, tagged and bagged by the establishment. Imagine they decide to
fight back, Ebola be damned. An already uphill battle becomes an epic
struggle when a large percentage of the population thinks you are a
monster that wants to hasten the spread of Ebola. Not that the ignorant
count for much in the grand scheme of history, but waking at least some
of them up in the future to the bigger threat (the globalists) is hard
to do when all they can see is devilish microbes. Those who plan to
combat the rise of the internationalists, as I plan to, should accept
now the likelihood that the only people we will have on our side
tomorrow are the people we have been able to wake up today. Martial law
will be welcomed by the rest.
International Response
An international response is almost guaranteed during a major
pandemic. Sovereignty will be tossed in the dirt. UN and WHO teams and
perhaps even troops could accompany an aid package to the U.S. Think
of the glorious propaganda, as globalists tell stories of how they
“saved humanity” by surpassing the barbaric practices of national and
individual sovereignty, defeated the Ebola virus (after millions of
deaths, of course), and out of the ashes, the “phoenix” of global
governance was born. If they succeed, imagine what the history books
will say for the next several centuries.
What Do We Do?
There are no silver bullet solutions. There never have been and
there never will be. People looking for them will be sorely
disappointed and ill prepared after wasting so much time searching for
an easy out. The only answer is for communities of people to take their
own survival into their own hands and become as self sufficient as
possible. This means that neighborhoods, towns, and counties will have
to take precautions now to steel themselves for a pandemic event,
instead of simply sitting on their hands and expecting government
officials to save them.
The treatments for Ebola in most cases involve nothing more than the
steady replacement of vital fluids, electrolytes and plasma until the
patient's body can build up an immunity to the virus. Those with
stronger immune systems before contraction are more likely to survive
and beat back the disease. Government care, for the most part, is NOT
going to save many people either way. That is to say, your survival
will depend on you and your immune system, not them. Communities that
make efforts to prevent contact and that strengthen individual immunity
will have a better chance of survival than going into any government run
hazmat facility. Government is not needed, and will often end up being
more of a threat than the virus itself. Groups I work closely with and
talk with, many with their own doctors and nurses, are already setting
prevention guidelines in motion.
If you can prove you don't need the system to save you, their
rationale for attempting to control you is weakened. The ignorant will
still try to demonize us for our efforts, but self sufficiency is all we
have in the face of this kind of storm. If we can lead by example with
our own successful health standards while saving people where the
establishment could not, perhaps we can turn the tide.
