THE BILDERBERG ROSTER

Of the three major secret organizations, the Bilderbergs are the most secretive. When they meet, they clear out all the people in the buildings in which the are to meet. They completely de-bug all the rooms, bring in their own cooks, waiters, housekeepers, and heavily armed security guards. They do not allow outsiders anywhere near the meeting place -- just before, during and after they meet. They claim there are no written records taken at their discussions, but “Spotlight” has occasionally acquired detailed documents that prove otherwise.

Attendees are required to maintain complete and absolute secrecy regarding their deliberations. Liberty Lobby’s crack investigative reporters on “Spotlight” have positioned a mole within the BB that somehow acquires a copy of the invitation list and often a copy of the agenda, but has never penetrated their actual meetings. Each time the BB has met in the U.S., they were held on Rockefeller property. Following is a list of U.S. attendees.

Of approximately 125 known attendees, 32 were from the USA. Attendees from eastern Europe and states from the former Soviet Union, about 100, were not included on the list. This is in line with protecting sensitive names.

A complete list of known attendees was printed in “Spotlight” June 29, 1992. So you see, there are meetings so secret and preparations to keep them that way are so extreme, media help is most important ... “In America?”

Yes, we are woefully uninformed but waking up to that fact. As these secret happenings become less secret, we will penetrate the blockade bit-by-bit. We are entering a time when the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back is about to break our malaise. Americans when gathered together for a common cause, can fight back and win.

OFFICIAL STATISTICS

As I waded through government created statistical material, attempting to digest transparent contradictions, both charts and text were in conflict with the day to day official way with words. As expected it became an exercise in frustration. Nevertheless, the array of charts and accompanying text are the fodder of officialdoms “preposterous debates.” It is a vivid picture illustrating the hollowness of most official posturing.

We listen as opposing parties boldly present, boldly distort, the very material they had a part in creating. During every electioneering frenzy -- any government report needed for debate -- factual or not, “is altered if need be.” If a report says “day”, they have no problem claiming it was an error. We are then informed “night” was the true meaning. Obviously we are all regarded as “maneuverable nerds.” Every electioneering fifteen second sound-byte is a blatant attempt to turn “day into night.”

During the past presidential election process -- explicit documentation showing stagnation and obvious decrease in workers’ incomes as related to buying power ... were dismissed as “not true.” Every description of our economy was glued to the successes of Wall Street ... regardless that it is the symbol of massive downsizing. The market is booming. American workers are deteriorating. This tactic is the way to avoid confronting the truth. If they want it to be night ... “night it will be.” Let the facts be damned.

Though we have a failed education dilemma our elected are ready, willing, and able, to probe the limits of how to distort English. They have become so accomplished and arrogant they believe we will forever trust them with our children’s minds? No matter how they approach us with information, their underlying theme is 1+1= 3 and, they believe “we will believe it forever.” No wonder our education system has been flushed down the drain. Our children are exposed hour after hour, day after day, to deliberate mind distorting con-men.

The more effort I expended to mesh official reports from dissimilar official publications, the less sense they made ... the more worthless they became. For the purposes of this book, at the onset, employing common sense and the everyday life we are part of was to take precedence. My instinct to be leery of so called factual documentation, created by power’s statisticians, was amply justified when researching government publications.

So you don’t assume and jump to the conclusion that my reasoning is a disguised way to bolster my assertions, have a go at the following. Equate what you know about the real world most of us live in, using common sense observation of daily life all around you.

As I turned to the first page of “U.S. Industrial Outlook” printed by the U.S. Department of Commerce, I’m instantly transported to a world of illusion. Before me, with all its absolute authoritative pomposity, was a graph depicting employment of workers producing goods and those involved in services. It showed both work forces as about equal. This incredulously flies in the face of other government statistics and congressional investigations. Our entire population has been exposed to official figures showing factory jobs shrinking by about fifty percent. As factory jobs decrease, we are forced into service jobs that should be established as underemployment restructuring. A recent disclosure showed that Wal-Mart now employees more people than GM. There can be no denying the bridge to the future as advertised is our crossover to a low wage service based world. What else will a population trained to be computer literate (just another euphemism for obedient data enterers) be expected to do. Very few will advance to a high level of complicated, high wage, computer applications. So! ... what is it all about?

The very next graph was no less ludicrous. This one depicted wages from manufacturing jobs (called good industries) in slight decline, and wages from service industries increasing to the level of manufacturing wages. How an army of recently downsized workers suffering no employment or underemployment are supposed to swallow that ... is beyond my comprehension. What is the purpose for “government figures” to be so misleading? Are the originators of the numbers stupid or dishonest? You must have heard the old adage “figures can lie, and liars can figure.”

On the next page I am greeted by a smiling photograph of Secretary Robert A. Mosbacher placed alongside his introductory message. It reads as follows.

“As we look forward to a new decade, we can be confident of the basic and vital strength of our economy. During 1989, we saw great progress throughout the world; changes have occurred that confirm our belief in benefits of free markets. As existing market barriers are dismantled and open markets become the norm, we can expect international trade and our domestic industry to flourish.”

It just rambles on, contradiction after contradiction. This brief opening paragraph is enough to digest and ponder upon. As any opening statement is supposed to set a theme, lets scrutinize his theme as Secretary.

When eluding to the basic strength of our economy “who are the we?” Did “we the American workers” see progress throughout the world? Yes we did. We see plenty of progress in Japan, Germany, and many underdeveloped countries. As we learn of their progress (due mostly to manufacturing) and contemplate our lack of it ... it surely can’t make us jump for joy. Downsizing has become our way of life. Without reservation, from our President himself, we are being advised “never again to expect job security.” We’re told to expect at least a dozen careers in a life time. Careers? What crass trickery lies in that word?

As existing market barriers are dismantled (keep in mind a variety of secret meetings have already set it in motion), it appears manufacturing jobs in the U.S. are also being dismantled at the same pace. The average family that’s being impaired, as the bridge to the future is under construction, knows what’s going on. They just don’t know what to do about it.

When referring to the expectations of American industry flourishing ... what industry is he referring to? Obviously the word industry is not intended to denote traditional manufacturing. Therefore it must be service integrated with electronics. It’s the ... “Hamburger Flip” with a side order of the “Silicon Chip.”

“We” translate domestic industry as our world renowned manufacturing base. “They” have altered our associations with the that concept. Domestic, usually means family, home, indigenous ... and other words like that. Industry normally refers to that sector of commerce generally attributed to job rewarding manufacturing. Industry is not meant to be an implied meaning of paper or button pushers this alteration of America is leading us to. “Words” ... they can be skewed without end.

By now you must get the gist of what reinforces my negativity and consequent revulsion of official government reporting. They write, say, and do anything to serve their purpose. Was it always so? I’m certain there were always some who tried to lay hands on our government, but never, with the untroubled arrogance we witness today. They have convinced themselves, we can be lulled by their expertise, their ability to distort facts with a straight face.

I ventured to review another government publication, “U.S. Foreign Trade Highlights 1991, Department Of Commerce, International Trade Administration.” The first graph deals with world trade (1980 to 1991). A dismal but expected picture shows an uninterrupted record of negative balances. Why industrial giants permitted this to happen is more important than a graph affirming the catastrophe.

Connecting the graph to the departure of U.S. industry, and in due course cessation of real growth in American, is not an unreasonable reach. If the impressive array of everyday products developed and manufactured here remained here, we would not be bemoaning a trade deficit.

We would still be experiencing our normal trade superiority. Were we still manufacturing what the world uses daily, traditional factories and workers would be earning good overtime. We would not be talking about forced retraining.

The remaining car, airline, military, factories ... will not support the American Dream. When an electioneering president wants another term in office (to bolster his numbers), he creates jobs in remaining decimated industries. He struts his stuff in an airplane factory waving an order for more military planes. About to be laid off workers cheer. Some of them can keep on working. That there is an ability to smoothly capture selected audiences this way ... clearly demonstrates our plight. Take away as much as possible and the crumbs returned will get you the vote.

Stripped of so many sound manufacturing opportunities, so many decently paid workers with it ... how could a mood of despondency not exist? What major industry other than the “Chip” looms on the horizon? The answer is an emphatic “none.” Even the chip industry is under attack from the rest of the world. With that in mind, chip related manufacturing will never take up the slack of appropriate employment that’s gone ... shipped to somebody else. Employment possibilities on the other side of the bridge to the future are downright depressing. No wonder Americans believe their dream is turning into a nightmare. The logic and intelligence of Americans is being underrated. We understand full well what this service economy will lead to. It is a precursor to ultimate suppression of labor’s ability to argue with “Power.”

The next pie-shaped graph represented “Composition of U.S. trade with the world.” Machinery, transport, equipment and chemicals represent 59%, other manufacturing 24%. Looking at the adjacent graph “Direction Of U.S. Merchandise Trade With The World”, the EC (European Community), Canada and Latin America make up the bulk of our shipments. Lately, even our surplus trade with Mexico has been reversed ... in spite of the promised NAFTA projections. Where our goods are flowing is a good indicator where growth is happening. It is also the most likely place for industry, money and power to congregate. So far the Pacific Rim (every power’s target) is a hub of corporate activity.

Power goes where power prospers best. If those with the power decided it was advantageous to retain industry here (I’m referring to industry that sustained a middle class) they would have. Excuses faulting unproductive labor, were just smoke screens concealing hidden agendas and were not true. Labor productivity figures show the U.S. worker to be the best in the world ... despite having to work in an MBA’s undercapitalized, archaic environment. An environment that was only updated when obvious disaster demanded action. The American worker struggled through the worst only to be sold out.

Page 72 displays the top 6 exports we are left with.

Aircraft and associated equipment Automatic data processing machines Thermonic, cold cathode, photocathode Parts and accessories for motor vehicles Parts for office and auto data machines Motor cars and other motor vehicles

Ever hear the phrase as GM goes so goes the country? If there is any credence to it we are in trouble. During the period 1987 to 1991 the leading import, motor cars, sustained seven times our rate of export. If Detroit had earnestly focused on and fought for supremacy in the U.S. market, they wouldn’t be fighting now to regain what they arrogantly assumed could stand up to neglect. It wasn’t American workers who couldn’t produce a competitive car. It was corporate -- more concerned with short term profitability than investment in product development. That’s the true reason for failure to compete.

The list of imports continued, showing other products that retain a steady unimpaired flow into the U.S.. They fill a “vacuum power fostered.”

Womens/Girls Coats - Capes etc. Textile Fabrics Baby Carriages Toys - Games etc. Articles of Apparel - Men's/Boys Coats etc. Furniture Bedding - Mattresses etc. Sound and TV Recorders Radio Broadcast Receivers Household Type - Electric and Non Electric Equip. Office Machines

As you can see, those imports have no competition in a country that no longer makes the product. You can also be assured, exporting cars will never balance the scales of instigated imports. What’s left? It rests with us.

The list of free flowing imported items, only represents a fraction of what has been ruthlessly erased from our manufacturing arsenal. A while back, I asked that you list the country of origin for everything in your home and everything you come in contact with during your day. It should surely convince you of the truth. If this is allowed to continue, we will never have a hope of remaining an economic power.

Retailing, a major source for jobs of last resort is struggling to maintain profitability. They are not suffering from our lack of confidence the spin doctors suggest. Wages remaining stagnant, good paying jobs declining, rising personal debt ... how in the world is the consumer expected to grow in such an economy?

Standard and Poors Industry Survey, Jan. 10, 1991, declares retailing is not an area for hope, it’s almost like a war. It clearly states -- consumers simply do not have the money to resume the prolific spending characteristics of the 1980’s. Real disposable income, what’s left after inflation and rising taxes, has been declining since 1990.

According to Management Horizons, a consulting firm based in Columbus Ohio, retail sales will remain abysmal all during the 90’s. Service will be consuming the greatest part of a worker’s pay check. Disposable income could very well slide back to where it was fifty years ago.

While industry insists world competition is the cause of downsizing, while industry forces union concessions insisting it’s needed to ride out the storm, Ford acquires Jaguar, General Motors buys 50% of Saab, Chrysler is planning something with Fiat, Mazda and Mitsubishi, which are partially owned by Ford and Chrysler. The aim is to make them (plants outside the U.S.) grow larger. Is this the hurdle American workers are told to contribute to? This is only a peek at what is happening as power pursues its agenda to depart our shores.

There can only be one conclusion. Bow to “Power” or “display a rejuvenated Declaration Of Independence to them.” It worked before.
