You have meddled with the primary forces of nature, Mr Beale, and I won’t have it! Is that clear?
You think you merely stopped a business deal. That is not the case. The Arabs have taken billions of dollars out of this country, and now they must put it back! It is ebb and flow, tide and gravity. It is ecological balance.
You are an old man who thinks in terms of nations and peoples. There are no nations. There are no peoples. There are no Russians. There are no Arabs. There are no Third Worlds. There is no West. There is only one holistic system of systems. One vast and immane, interwoven, interacting, multi-varied, multi-national dominion of dollars. Petro-dollars, electro-dollars, multi-dollars, reichmarks, rands, rubles, pounds and shekels.
It is the international system of currency which determines the totality of life on this planet. That is the natural order of things today. That is the atomic, and sub-atomic and galactic structure of things today.
And YOU have meddled with the primal forces of nature. And you will atone.
Am I getting through to you, Mr Beale?
You get up on your little twenty-one inch screen and howl about America and democracy. There is no America. There is no democracy. There is only IBM and ITT and AT&T, and DuPont, Dow, Union Carbide and Exxon. Those are the nations of the world today.
What do you think the Russians talk about in their Councils of State? Karl Marx? They get out their linear programming charts, statistical decision theories, mini-max solutions, and compute the price-cost probabilities of their transactions and investments, just like we do.
We no longer live in a world of nations and ideologies, Mr Beale. The world is a college of corporations, inexorably determined by the immutable bye-laws of of business. The world is a business, Mr Beale. It has been since man crawled out of the slime.
And our children will live, Mr Beale, to see that … perfect … world in which there is no war nor famine, oppression or brutality. One vast and ecumenical holding company for whom all men will work to serve a common profit. In which all men will hold a share of stock.
All necessities provided. All anxieties tranquilized. All boredom amused.

Depends on your perspective, and there are plenty of popular writers who are considered insane or biased all the way to the moon. It doesn’t make their work any worse.

Guywilly 39, not every single leader in South America is a dictator. There are many democracies as well.

Clinias, what are you talking about: “communism is called “International Socialism. Communism and socialism are not the same. They have differencies from one another (do some research). And “Socialism is about bringing about the Age of Aquaris, the Age of Peace” is just nonsense. P.S. The Freemasonry is not trying to take over the world (and it hasn’t done it either, in cas if you ask). And they don’t teach politics to its members, each one of them its free to have their own beliefs.

“One vast and ecumenical holding company for whom all men will work to serve a common profit. In which all men will hold a share of stock.

That’s Ayn Rand’s world in Anthem. That sort of collectivist thought destroys the world.

This scene with Ned Beatty, (who played “Arthur Jensen”), in the conference room at one end of the long conference table setting “Howard Beale” straight on how the world really is, i.e. that there are no more nations, only corporations — is so incredibly prophetic! I was like, wow! They said all this way back in 1976? OMFG! It’s more true today than even back then!

GuyWily39, why is …
GuyWily39, why is it that the other name of communism is called “International Socialism”? Because it wants to do away with nation-states. Fabian socialism and the Council of Foreign Relations is all about it. Socialism is about bringing about the Age of Aquaris, the Age of Peace–to do that requires the deconstruction of race and nation. There is a world-wide conspiracy to accomplish that. It is the mission of Freemasonry and every other socialist organisation.
There is no point …
There is no point in debating you any further, because like all CT’s, you flat out refuse any facts which do not support your paranoid theories. It’s as bad as you think and they’re out to get you. You win. I give up. A big conspiracy exists by which the globalists plan to kill off mankind. Yet the population gets bigger and bigger. Oh did I mention the population is about to drastically reduce all on it’s own? Google the article “baby bust generation” in Foreign Affairs magazine.
You’re overlooking …
You’re overlooking an important point, Einstein. The demand is not there now, so ask yourself why is so much supply being created? The only reasonable answer is that they are anticipating demand ahead of time. And as you said, pharma companies are not stupid. They would be taking an enormous risk of suffering huge financial losses if the demand did not turn out to be there. The only way they would risk creating this much supply is if they had insider knowledge that the demand was guaranteed.

Let’s deduce the obvious here Sherlock: it’s called “capitalism”. People all over the world are terrified of this “pandemic”, they panic. This creates a demand for something which they think will protect them. Pharma companies are not stupid and being the capitalist entities they are, create the supply.

>>killed less people than lightning
Exactly my point. So ask yourself why the big pharma companies are making enough vaccine to vaccinate half the world? I’d tell you, but it would be better if you led yourself to the answer. Otherwise, you’ll just call it delusional, histrionic bullsh*t.

Well, all I can say is that I hope you enjoy your swine flu shot this winter. Ask them for the extra-large dose for even more protection. I’ll be sure to add your name (posthumously, of course) to the 2009 Darwin Awards.

Gift from the clue tree: If the CFR and United Nations couldn’t even make a microscopic, third-world shithole like Mauritania outlaw slavery, they’re in charge of precisely two things: jack and shit.

Hey remember when the USA intervened in Darfur because the CFR said they should? Me neither. Never happened. Hey, remember when the USA backed out of invading Iraq because the UN said not to? Damn, that didn’t happen either.
