It seems fairly obvious to me that Covid 19 is a smokescreen to preserve the remaining oil supplies and replace the existing financial system/social structure, to prevent western society from collapsing. What is being paraded as the "Great Reset" by the World Economic Forum (WEF) is just a socialist utopia for preserving remaining resources in the absence of oil and controlling the population to avoid a Mad Max meltdown.
Is this view generally accepted here?
I have seen how socialism works as a kid or rather how it doesn't work.
So yes, they will try and fail.
Mad Max like dystopia is our ultimate future for a period of time when population shrinks. Later some stabilization is going to come.
Experimenting with socialism to preserve current BIG society will fail.
There won't be means to keep people employed, to pay UBI or high minimal wages etc.
System will be undermined on grass root level.
Even North Korea relented to some extend and now allows small scale (family size) private operations as long as government is left unchallenged.
It is good idea to preserve resources but at the same time you need to make all efforts to make system small and working on local level.
Attempts to preserve BIG interconnected global or national system is a reason why current ideas are likely to fail. There wont be resources to run it for long and resources which are still there will be wasted to attempt it.
Disenfranchised and otherwise wronged people will either not care about system or actively sabotage it.
At the same time government resources to keep security/police apparatus are going to shrink, so thugs and psychopaths working there will betray their overlords from existing elites.
As fragmentation progress you will observe smaller governing structures taking up responsibilities and replacing national governments, warlordism, lawlessness in more impoverished areas etc.
So after current authoritarian buildup we are likely to see accelerated collapse within next 5-15 years.
Live debt free or you may lose everything upon default in environment of socialist assaults on ownership.
They may cancel your debts but will make you a slave if you cannot pay.
But I can understand elites to a degree - people have taken so much debt which cannot be served that they proven to be unfit to own anything.
Problem is that most of elites are no different and they try to preserve influence by dishonest means.
I agree with your post. Martin Armstrong has said this is the last roll of the dice for socialism... Instead of admitting that big government is part of the problem, they're doubling-down. It was always said if the government were put in charge of the government, there would be a sand shortage in 4 years. How apt... He believes power will shift east to China by 2032... I'd be surprised if it took that long.
They talk about the 4th industrial revolution... but there won't be the oil to build or power their 5G IoT devices... The energy issue will likely be resolved in 20-30 years, but you always need oil and there's nothing as energy-dense as crude. We're going back to the 1900's... and I'm OK with that, what I'm not OK with - is the very rich living a life of comfort when the 99% are living near poverty.
