The End of the Old World Order

By Bill Lindo

Belize City, Feb 21st 2022: The world we live in today is going through extreme upheavals. To understand where we are, we need to understand where we came from.

For 10,000 years our world has been ruled by empires, with Europe dominating for the last 400+ years. At the top was some 5% or less of the population that governed the then Empires and territories of Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas, while 90% of the population were peasants/farmers and the other 5% were townspeople who were merchants and artisans, the tradesmen for the elite. In times of war some of the peasants were used as soldiers. Most of the land was in the hands of the elites. The farmers and peasants worked the land and were obligated to share their produce with the army and elites. Only about 4% to 6% of the population could read and write. The average life-span was 43 years, as most lived in squalor – un-hygienic conditions with no running clean water (except for the aqueducts of Rome, India and Peru for brief periods).

And this largely remained the case until the 20 years of education of the North American colonies of the United Kingdom (UK) by Ben Franklin paid-off when some 80 elite members of the 13 colonies of British North America rebelled in 1776 and brought about a revolution that shook the world.  For the first time in human history, a revolution based on the idea that men are made in the image of their Creator, that man is not an animal, but free and born with free will became reality – it succeeded.  From the minds of Franklin and that American genius, Alexander Hamilton came something new – the American System of Political Economy.  In 1784 the new United States of America was born and started to implement the eight principles of the American System.

The eight principles are as follows:

  1. Exploiting nature rather than men.
  2. Tariff Protection of local agriculture and manufacturing as free trade have always benefit the strong at the expense of the weak.
  3. High wages to workers, because as E. Peshine Smith, wrote: “In order to make labour-cheap, the labourer must be well-fed, well-clothed, well-lodged, well-instructed.”
  4. Money creation is a public utility and should be under the control of elected representatives of the people, not controlled by private individuals for private gain and control.
  5. Technology and innovation always causes new methods to enter production and thus profits and wages don’t diminish but instead leads to higher productivity and thus higher wages to workers. Therefore the theory of Diminishing Returns is not valid to physical reality.
  6. A view of soil fertility and agricultural productivity as a product of capital investment – not nature.  Science is the way to solve the problem of “mining the soil”.  
  7. Public infrastructure as a means to lower costs in an industrial society by introducing new methods of production and communications, and the public support of research and development.
  8. Government intervention in an economy. Government as the “brain” must put a bridle on corporate bodies, and must establish the pursuit of happiness as a natural right of citizens. In Belize this principle is enshrine in the PUP’s Constitution as a sacred duty of government to create full employment and completely end poverty.

The first principle of the American System is the basis of George Price’s Mixed Economy exploit nature rather than man.  It is the antithesis of this principle that has been the basis for ten thousand years of domination and strife. It is the reason why the two foreign owned/controlled corporations are trying to destroy the cane farmers and the water-front workers; the workers and farmers are viewed not as humans but as property – animals fit to cull at will.

Belizeans, make no mistake, industrialization along with Price’s Mixed Economy is the only way to eliminate poverty and produce full employment in Belize.  Our current neo-liberalism principles of the Empire will produce what we have always had – misery, poverty, ignorance, and violence, in other words, despair. The reason why first the United States of America, and later Germany, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and today’s China and Russia have been able to supply a high standard of living for their citizens was because every one of them followed a version of Capitalism that was known during the nineteen century as the American School/System of Political Economy.

The last two hundred years of history has seen two opposite views (philosophy) of man trying to co-exist on this earth. The American System (George Price’s Mixed Economy) and the opposite philosophy of the Empire, of neo-liberalism, of globalism, of the Great Reset, of man as an animal.

Let’s look more closely at the last two years. First, the global financial system suffered a collapse on September 17th 2019. The global elites then decided to bail-out their rotten bankrupt system by releasing a bio-weapon on the world – COVID 19.  How is it that more than 194 governments from all over the world ended up dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic in almost exactly the same manner, with lockdowns, mask mandates, and vaccination cards now being commonplace everywhere?

The answer according to Michael Lord of Global Research of Canada may lie in the Young Global Leaders School, which was established and managed by Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum (WEF), and that many of today’s prominent political and business leaders passed through on their way to the top. The class of 1992 included Angela Markel, Justin Trudeau, Nicolas Sarkozy and Tony Blair.  Chelsea Clinton, Richard Branson, Jeff Bezos, and Bill Gates are also graduates of the Young Global Leaders School.  Given the growing discontent with the anti-Covid measures put into practice by the school’s graduates who are now national leaders, Lord quotes Ernst Wolff a German economist, who believes it is possible that these people were selected due to their willingness to do whatever they are told, and that they are being set up to fail so that the subsequent backlash can be exploited to justify the creation of a new global form of government.

According to Wolff and Lord it seems that politicians with unique personalities and strong, original views have become rare, and that the distinguishing character of the national leaders of the past 30 years has been their meekness and adherence to a strict globalist line dictated from above.  On the global stage, both Presidents Xi of China and President Putin of Russia are exceptions to this meekness and urge to follow orders from above. In fact the elites of both Russia and China are so in love with their leaders that both were made Presidents for life.  

Now Larry Fink the CEO of BlackRock is a very interesting case. He is a current member of the Board of WEF, advisor to the central banks of Canada, Bank of England, US Federal Reserve and European Bank. Some say he is the go-between the Rockefellers and the public figures.

His company, BlackRock along with Vanguard are the two largest and most powerful companies in the world. BlackRock is the world’s largest asset manager, with more than $9.5 trillion in assets as of July 2021, while Vanguard held more than $7 trillion in assets as of January 2021.  According to CNN, Vanguard is the largest stockholder in BlackRock (7.61%), while BlackRock is the biggest stockholder in Vanguard (13.06%) — though the actual ownership structure of these companies has been described as “dark”, by Forbes. Finance people believe the real owners behind BlackRock and Vanguard are the old elites – the Rockefellers, DuPonts, House of Windsor and Rothschild’s who have controlled the West for the last 120+ years.

This influence extends to the media.  BlackRock alone owns major shares in supposed “independent media” such as Fox News, CBS, Comcast (NBC), CNN, Disney (ABC), Gannett (USA TODAY and 250 daily newspapers throughout the U.S.), Sinclair Media (whose television stations reach 72% of the American public), and the Graham Media Group (Slate, Foreign Policy).

BlackRock along with other firms is also engaged in a real estate purchasing spree, buying up entire neighbourhoods of single-family homes and converting them to rentals, driving up home prices by reducing supply on the marketplace.  BlackRock’s real estate strategy echoes the words of the World Economic Forum: “You’ll own nothing, and you’ll be happy.”

As a measure of the power of BlackRock and Vanguard over the United States, since December 2021, Vanguard is the largest shareholder in the following companies:  Cigna (insurance); CityGroup (banking); Delta (airline); Eli Lily (chemical/drug); Gap (retail); Hershey (food); Hess (oil); IBM (it); Uber (leisure); Johnson & Johnson (chemical/drugs); Kraft (foods); McDonald (foods); MGM (leisure); Microsoft (IT); NBC (leisure); Netflix (leisure); New York Times (media); Pfizer (drugs); Amazon (retail); Walmart (retail); UPS (leisure); United (airlines).  And guess which company is the next biggest – BlackRock.

The level of power and influence of BlackRock caused none other than Bloomberg in May 21st 2020 to characterize BlackRock as the “fourth branch of government.”

So, what is the problem now with China and Russia? Both of them went along with the requirements of the global Western elites who had dominated the world for the last 400+ years, and went all out with the COVID 19 requirements. So, why is there a problem now?

Remember, before the rebellion of some elites in North America the world was ruled by Empires, but after the second American revolution of 1860 led by Abe Lincoln and his genius political economist, Henry Charles Carey, the United States swiftly became the greatest and most powerful nation-state on Earth. So much so, that the great German leader, after he was driven from power – Otto van Bismarck said the lovers of the Empire had no choice but to kill Lincoln and later James Garfield, who was assassinated to stop a full rebirth of the American System in the United States. And some 20 years later, the Empire again assassinated a US President, 25th President of the United States — William McKinley after he promised to export the American System to the Americas. From the assassination of President McKinley in 1901 to about 2017 the view of the Empire – globalization, the neo-liberal order, the concepts behind the Great Reset gained more and more power in the world.  In fact, in 2020 with unleashing of the great scam – the launching of the bio-weapon, COVID 19 the global elites were now in total control. But they went too far!

In November 2021 in Scotland they decided that now was the time to cull the “useless eaters” of the world – some two billion persons would be wiped from the face of the Earth. How? Our economy is based on fossil fuels and coal.  It was proposed that no new loans will be issued for fossil fuels and coal, and that existing plants would be shut down. Wind and solar can never ever support 7.8 billion people on planet Earth. Wind and solar may sustain some two to three billion people. What happens to the other four billion?

Since about 1981, China has adopted the old nineteen century American System of Political Economy and its eight principles as its national policy. In 1981 the average income was USD $ 85 per year, and some 800 million Chinese were living in poverty.  Today, just 40 years later, the average income in China is about USD $ 17,460 per year and as at January 2021 over 800 million Chinese were taken out of poverty – the World Bank calls it a modern miracle. Today China is one of the four global powers of the world.  The engineers who govern today’s China believe mankind are not animals but humans with the power of the brain, of reason, of ideas – that human-kind are above and superior to animals. Chinese leaders are not about culling Chinese people – they will protect lives, not wilfully take it. Ultimately, they will decide the future of their people.

The president of Russia is of the same views as China. On Feb 4th 2022, both Xi Jinping of China and Vladimir Putin of Russia issued a jointed statement (available at bill-lindo.com) declaring their Independence – financial and economic from the global elites that had run the world for the last 120+ years.

So, for the first time since 1901, two of the four global world powers have stated that humans are not animals but creatures of reason. These two powerful nation-states control some 20% of the global population, possess enough nuclear weapons and very high tech delivery systems that can destroy the earth twice over, possess enough raw materials including food to live a very high standard of living without any imports from the countries of the West. Together they possess some 58% of global manufacturing capabilities.  Further, Russia and China are the ONLY nation-states that at this time possess hypersonic missile systems, which cannot be defended against.

Yes, we are now at the dawn of a New World Order.  The two hundred years of co-existence of the two world views is over. The elites of the Western countries have long propagated that mankind is an animal – nothing more than property and can be culled at will by the ruling and upper class elites and they do not tolerate any other concept.  The problem is that two very powerful nation-states (China and Russia) have declared they will no longer tolerate the dictates of the global elites and will no longer allow them to keep most of the world’s nation-states backwards. Finance will be freed from the dictates of central banks who are controlled by the global elites. Instead, national banking will be encouraged for economic development. No more color revolutions. No more overthrow of government that demand the right to self-determination and FULL independence.  Every nation-state has the RIGHT to industrializes and thus provide a high standard of living to its citizens.

Russia will never allow Ukraine to possess missiles or nuclear weapons nor become a member of NATO. In the same way that the United States will never allow any country to put nuclear weapon or missiles in Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean nor Central America.

China will never allow Formosa to declare Independence, nor station any foreign troops on its soil. Formosa has always been a part of China – one China.  Hawaii will never be independent of the USA.

If the global elites wish war to resurrect the old world order of empire, of colonies, of globalization, then there will be war, but the elites will lose!
