Revelations regarding the NSA’s unlawful invasion of citizens’ privacy, brings George Orwell’s in 1949 published book ‘Big Brother is watching you’ to mind again – once governments are allowed to get too firm a grip on the reins of power – including; judicial, law enforcement, the military, and media – they are not just imminently corruptible but also super-hardened to any real change. Currently the world is inundated by the nonsense talk from the Financial Mob who on their turn are ruled from behind the scene by the elite brotherhood in order to apply their own secret agenda, to play-out this crisis to their liking, and that’s one Central Bank with a global currency, full stop. Meanwhile the world is heading full-speed in that direction.

“The world is a step closer to a global currency, backed by a global central bank, running monetary policy for all humanity,” says an insider. Which naturally raises the question, who or what will serve as this global central bank, cloaked with the power to issue the global currency and police monetary policy for all of humanity? When the world’s central bankers recently met in Washington, they decided to put the BIS in in Basel in charge to serve this awesome and fearful role.

If you really wish to live in a world that is “sophisticated” enough to be run by a world government more specifically by the intellectual Brotherhood elite steering global bankers, then by all means, continue to read and believe the mainstream media to get all your information. If, however, the idea of a select coterie of a global intellectual-financial elite running the world does not sound like the ideal society for humanity’s future, we citizen must WAKE UP to stop this brainwashing and to shine the lights of publicity on the actions of powerful individuals and institutions, bringing a critical eye to their ideologies and actions, to battle the tide of misinformation and expose the New World Order. Most people aren’t cynical enough as cynicism helps you connect the dots. A little more distrust – or at least suspicion, combined with sneering contempt – would help them understand how society works.

Henry Ford once quipped, “It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and money system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.” Every major geopolitical decision of the last few decades has been run through one of these three organizations: the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations and the World Bank/International Monetary Fund (IMF).

While the Trilateral Commission excludes anyone currently holding public office from membership, the – global who’s-who of power brokers – serves as a revolving door of the rich and powerful from the financial, political and academic elite.

“Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.” — Aldous Huxley

So who really controls the world? The Illuminati? Freemasons? The Bilderberg Group? Or are these all red herrings to distract your prying eyes from the real global elite? The answer, like most topics worth exploring, is not quite so simple. Have no doubt, there are secretive global powers whose only goal is to keep and grow that power. But it really may not be as secretive as you’d think. And that’s what makes it even more criminal…

Let’s explore the three main categories: Financial, Political and Media. This is a harder task than you may imagine, since they all work in concert by design.

For the Financial Elite follow the money – Systems theorist James B. Glattfelder sheds light on the dark corners of bank control and international finance with his scientific process analysis and pulls some of the major players out of the dark.

“From a massive database of 37 million companies, Glattfelder pulled out the 43,060 transnational corporations (companies that operate in more than one country) that are all connected by their shareholders. Digging further, he constructed a model that actually displays just how connected these companies are to one another through their ownership of shares and corresponding operating revenues.”

Only 1318 transnational corporations form the core of the economy. In attached graphic, the Super connected companies are red, very connected companies are yellow. The size of the dot represents revenue.

Above image is a chilling one that looks like some sort of intergalactic light globe. Glattfelder has done a remarkable job of boiling these connections down to the main actors — as well as pinpointing how much power they have over the global market. These “ownership networks” can reveal who the key players are, how they are organized, and exactly how interconnected these powers are. From New Scientist:

“Each of the 1318 had ties to two or more other companies, and on average they were connected to 20. What’s more, although they represent 20 per cent of global operating revenues, the 1318 appear to collectively own through their shares the majority of the world’s large blue chip and manufacturing firms — which is the “real” economy — that represents a further 60 per cent of global revenues (GDP).

When the team further untangled the web of ownership, it found much of it tracked back to a “super-entity” of 147 even more tightly knit companies — all of their ownership was held by other members of the super-entity — that control 40 per cent of the total wealth in the network. According to his data, Glattfelder found that the top 730 shareholders control a whopping 80% of the entire revenue of transnational corporations.

And — surprise, surprise! — They are mostly financial institutions in the United States and the United Kingdom. That is a huge amount of concentrated control in a small number of hands…

Here are the top ten transnational companies that hold the most control over the global economy – and if you are one of the millions that are convinced Big Banks run the world, you should get a creeping sense of justification from this list:

• Barclays plc.
• Capital Group Companies Inc.
• FMR Corporation
• AXA
• State Street Corporation
• JPMorgan Chase & Co.
• Legal & General Group plc.
• Vanguard Group Inc.
• UBS AG
• Merrill Lynch & Co Inc.

Some of the other usual suspects round out the top 25, including JP Morgan, Credit Suisse, and Goldman Sachs. What you won’t find are ExxonMobil, Microsoft, or General Electric, which is strange. In fact, only China Petrochemical Group Company at number 50 is the first company in the row that creates something.

The top 49 corporations are financial institutions, banks, and insurance companies — with the exception of Wal-Mart, which ranks at number 15… The rest essentially just push money around to one another. Here’s the interconnectedness of the top players in this international scheme:

The number one player is Barclays: “Barclays was a main player in the LIBOR manipulation scandal, and were found to have committed fraud and collusion with other interconnected big banks. They were fined $200 million by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, $160 million by the United States Department of Justice and £59.5 million by the Financial Services Authority for “attempted manipulation” of the Libor and Euribor rates. Despite their crimes, Barclays still paid $61,781,950 in bonuses earlier this year, including a whopping $27,371,750 to investment banking head Rich Ricci. And yes, that’s actually his real name…”

These are the guys that run the world. “It’s essentially the “too big to fail” argument laid out in a scientific setting — only instead of just the U.S. and U.K. banks, we’re talking about an international cabal of banks and financial institutions so intertwined that they pose a serious threat to global economics.” Effectively, instead of “too big to fail,” these are “too connected to fail”…

Glattfelder contends; “a high degree of interconnectivity can be bad for stability, because stress can spread through the system like an epidemic.” It is one thing to have suspicions that someone is working behind the scenes to control the world’s money supply. It’s quite another to have scientific evidence that clearly supports it. But these guys can only exist within a political system that supports their goals. And those political systems are pretty much operating in the open…

The Political Elite has made every major geopolitical decision of the last few decades that went through one of the following organisations: the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations and the World Bank/International Monetary Fund (IMF).

The Trilateral Commission cofounded in 1973 by the infamous David Rockefeller to create a group of the world’s power brokers that work together — outside of any official governmental or political allegiance — to bring about cooperation between North America, Western Europe and Japan. Launched under the guise of working together to solve the world’s problems. A noble goal — but “problems” are very subjective.

It actually is a global who’s-who of power brokers. And while the Trilateral Commission excludes anyone currently holding public office from membership, it serves as a revolving door of the rich and powerful from the financial, political and academic elite. To familiarise yourselves with the entire member list take a look at: http://www.trilateral.org/download/file/TC_list_12-13(2).pdf . You’ll be shocked at who else is part of this secretive organization.

Yet the Fed, other central banks and governments continue to manipulate the free market and strip future growth and earnings. Entrenched financial institutions and politicians continue to enrich themselves to maintain their wealth and power at our expense.

Discover what lies dormant beneath the surface of the people and motivate citizen’s spirit to rise up, to take back what the “Bad Guys” have stolen from us. If we the people WAKE UP now it will happen because we have the majority in numbers, open your eyes and your heart to the possibilities that are available.

Watch below video and understand that just like these patriots in the video there are “Good Guys” out there as well – lurking in the crowd just waiting for the moment to reveal themselves and take back control of the nation. We are entering the final chapter and if you just trust that it can happen, for sure it will happen…

Gold is real wealth – as opposed to dollar bills, which are promissory notes from the federal government. Gold may be under pressure in the short term. But over the long term – as it becomes clear to investors that governments are trapped in an endless cycle of QE – you’ll want too to own some gold. As Richard Russell says, when the dust settles on this phase of monetary history, gold will be the “last man standing.”

Below article is worth your read to increase understanding how we – all the – people are fleeced by the elite brotherhood. http://www.sott.net/article/269913-Pyramids-and-the-coming-economic-collapse
