I am the 99%.

Many people are expressing outrage and crying out for solutions. You can bet that the ruling class certainly has a long-planned solution just waiting to be implemented. ("Never let a good crisis go to waste.") Be careful for what you wish; it may turn out to be a double-edged sword...

Just like being lulled and mesmerized by the Pied Piper of Hamelin, the sheeple are being fattened for the slaughter.

It is ever so easy for the ruling class to take advantage of perceived and actual problems—by introducing solutions that do not truly benefit the public-at-large. Instead, the proffered solutions substantially advance any number of agendas of the power elite themselves. It is a classic example of the Hegelian Dialectic: problem-> reaction-> solution (thesis-> anti-thesis-> synthesis). It is a great way to persuade the citizenry to accept something that actually is not in their best interest.

At the highest levels of decision-making, distinctions such as the Democrats versus Republicans, Liberals versus Conservatives, the Left versus the Right and other such artificially contrived dichotomies become blurred; they substantially disappear. Things are not always what they seem, as the power elite's ostensible motives conceal their true ones. Practically speaking, it is analogous to playing the roles of "good cop versus bad cop" in a police interrogation room.

In the final analysis, they all serve the same master: the international ruling class. Such real power and control is primarily manifested through the “front” organizations of the global power elite: governments, financial institutions and the mainstream media; it is largely enforced via the national security, intelligence, and military apparatuses. "Divide-and-conquer" strategy takes care of the rest. This inertia is built into the system. So, is it such a surprise that—at the lower levels—the citizenry question little, and effectively "police" themselves?

Case in point: The House of Rothschild has been playing these types of manipulative games since the Napoleonic Era. In the long run, they always seem to win.

How many of you really have a sense of history? Consider getting your news and information from reliable independent sources, instead of only mainstream media. Also, it might prove beneficial to do more research, as well as improve your analytical and critical thinking skill.
