Nixon removed the dollar completely from the gold standard in 1971 with the aid of the Federal Reserve (or perhaps under the direction of the FED) which ultimately escalated inflation pressures.
Europe's post war boom came to an abrupt end, while prices on goods (and oil/gasoline) in the US skyrocketed up until 1981-1982, when the Federal Reserve jacked interest rates up to around 20% and created a deliberate recessionary crash.
Interestingly, the IMF had created the SDR system in 1969 just before the gold standard was cut (the same SDR which the IMF is poised to use as the foundation of a global digital currency mechanism).
And, the World Economic Forum (WEF) was founded in 1971.
The time period is often depicted in films as a happy-go-lucky era of disco, drugs, hippies and rock n' roll, but the reality is that the early 1970s was the beginning of the end for the west - it was the moment that our economic foundations were sabotaged and the affluence of the middle class was slowly but surely stolen by inflation.
In the midst of this economic "malaise," which Jimmy Carter later referred to as a "crisis of confidence," the United Nations and associated globalist round table groups were hard at work developing a scheme to convince the population to embrace global centralization of power.
Their goals were rather direct.
They wanted:
One of the most revealing quotes on the agenda comes from Clinton Administration Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbot, who stated in Time magazine that:
To understand how the agenda functions, I offer a quote from globalist Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) member Richard Gardner in an article in Foreign Affairs Magazine in 1974 titled 'The Hard Road to World Order':
In other words,
Establishing an empire is one thing; keeping it is another...
How could the globalists come out of their authoritarian closet, eliminate individual freedoms and rule the world without a rebellion that ultimately destroys them?
The only way such a plan would work is if the people, the peasants in this empire, EMBRACE their own slavery...
The public would have to be made to view slavery as a matter of solemn duty and survival, not just for themselves but for the entire species.
That way,
We got a big taste of this brand of psychological warfare during the 'pandemic' scare, in which all of us were told that a virus with a tiny Infection Fatality Rate of 0.23% was enough to erase a majority of our human rights.
Luckily, a large enough group of people stood up and fought back against the mandates and passports.
That said,
To be clear, there is ZERO evidence of a climate crisis caused by man-made carbon emissions or "greenhouse" gas emissions.
The official temperature record only goes back to the 1880s, and this narrow timeline is what UN and government funded climate scientists use as a reference point for their claims.
I explain why this is fraudulent science in my article 'The 'Gas Stove Scare' is a Fraud Created by Climate Change Authoritarians.'
The point is, the UN has been promoting hysteria over a fake doomsday climate scenario, just like the WEF and WHO promoted hysteria and fear over a non-threat like Covid...
And, it all began back in the early 1970s with a group tied to the UN called The Club of Rome.
The globalists have been scheming to use environmentalism as an excuse for centralization since at least 1972 when the Club of Rome published a treatise titled 'The Limits to Growth'.
Funding a limited study of industry and resources in a joint project with MIT, the findings appeared to be scripted well ahead of time - the end of the planet was nigh unless nations and individuals sacrificed their sovereignty.
Twenty years later they would publish a book titled 'The First Global Revolution.'
In that document they specifically discuss using global warming as a vehicle to form supranational governance:
By making humanity's very existence the great threat, the globalists intended to unify the public around the idea of keeping themselves in check.
That is to say, the public would have to sacrifice their freedoms and submit to control in the belief that the human species is too dangerous to be allowed liberty.
The following news special from the Australian Public Broadcasting Service was aired in 1973, not long after the Club of Rome was founded.
It is surprisingly blunt about the purposes of the organization:
The globalists want two specific outcomes most of all:
The "sharing economy" concept that Klaus Schwab and the WEF often proudly promotes was not thought up by them, it was thought up by the Club of Rome 50 years ago...!
It's a self fulfilling prophecy:
In the end, the climate agenda has nothing to do with environmentalism and everything to do with economics.
The plan began in the midst of a very real stagflationary crisis, a moment when the middle class populace was most afraid for the future and prices were rising rapidly.
It's not a coincidence that the culmination of the global warming scheme is taking place today just as another stagflation disaster is upon us.
The Club of Rome is now a shell of its former glory filled with silly hippies, most likely because the UN and other globalist think-tanks have taken on the role the group used to play.
However, the shadow of the original Club is ever present and its strategy of climate fear-mongering is being wielded right now to justify increasing government suppression of energy and agriculture.
If they are not stopped by the public, totalitarian carbon mandates will become the norm.
The next generation, living in engineered poverty, will be taught from early childhood that the globalists "saved the world" from a calamity that never really existed.
They will be told that the enslavement of humanity is something to be proud of, a gift that keeps the species alive, and anyone who questions that slavery is a selfish villain that wants the destruction of the planet...
