• THE ORIGIN OF COMPULSORY SCHOOLING

    “In our dream we have limitless resources, and the people yield themselves with perfect docility to our molding hand. The present educational conventions fade from our minds; and, unhampered by tradition, we work our own good will upon a grateful and responsive rural folk. We shall not try to make these people or any of their children into philosophers or men of learning or of science. We are not to raise up among them authors, orators, poets, or men of letters. We shall not search for embryo great artists, painters, musicians. Nor will we cherish even the humbler ambition to raise up from among them lawyers, doctors, preachers, statesmen, of whom we now have ample supply.”

    - Rev. Frederick T. Gates, Business Advisor to John D. Rockefeller Sr., 1913 [1]

    The current American school system took root around the turn of the century. In 1903, John D. Rockefeller founded the General Education Board, which provided major funding for schools across the country and was especially active in promoting the State-controlled public school movement.


    Rockefeller Education Board, 1915

    The General Education Board was not interested in encouraging critical thinking. Rather, its focus was on organizing children and creating reliable, predictable, obedient citizens. As award-winning former teacher John Gatto puts it, “school was looked upon from the first part of the 20th Century as a branch of industry and a tool of governance.” The Rockefellers, along with other financial elite and their philanthropic organizations (such as the Gates, Carnegies, and Vanderbilts) have been able to mold society by funding and pushing compulsory state schooling for the masses.

    Here’s a timeline to show the radical shift in education and the influence of the financial elite.

    Pre 1840: Literacy Rates High, Schools Predominantly Private and Locally Controlled

    Up until the 1840’s, the American school system was mainly private, decentralized, and home schooling was common. Americans were well educated and literacy rates were high.

    1852: Massachusetts Passes First Mandatory Attendance Law

    1902: John D. Rockefeller Creates the General Education Board

    At the ultimate cost of $129 million, the General Education Board provided major funding for schools across the nation and was very influential in shaping the current school system.

    1905: Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching is Founded

    1906: NEA Becomes a Federally Chartered Association

    1913: Frederick T. Gates, Director of Charity for the Rockefeller Foundation, Writes “In our dream…the people yield themselves with perfect docility to our molding hand”

    Frederick T. Gates wrote in The Country School of Tomorrow, Occasional Papers Number 1:

    “In our dream we have limitless resources, and the people yield themselves with perfect docility to our molding hand. The present educational conventions fade from our minds; and, unhampered by tradition, we work our own good will upon a grateful and responsive rural folk. We shall not try to make these people or any of their children into philosophers or men of learning or of science. We are not to raise up among them authors, orators, poets, or men of letters. We shall not search for embryo great artists, painters, musicians. Nor will we cherish even the humbler ambition to raise up from among them lawyers, doctors, preachers, statesmen, of whom we now have ample supply.”

    1914: National Education Association (NEA) Alarmed by the Activity of the Carnegie and Rockefeller Foundations

    At an annual meeting in St. Paul Minnesota, a resolution was passed by the Normal School Section of the NEA. An excerpt stated:

    “We view with alarm the activity of the Carnegie and Rockefeller Foundations — agencies not in any way responsible to the people — in their efforts to control the policies of our State educational institutions, to fashion after their conception and to standardize our courses of study, and to surround the institutions with conditions which menace true academic freedom and defeat the primary purpose of democracy as heretofore preserved inviolate in our common schools, normal schools, and universities.”

    1917: NEA Reorganizes and Moves to Washington DC

    The NEA is the largest labor union in the U.S., representing public school teachers and other school faculty and staff. It generally opposes merit pay, school vouchers, accountability reforms, and more.

    1918: Every State Requires Students to Complete Elementary School

    1932: “Eight Year Study” — Largely funded by Carnegie Corporation of New York and the General Education Board

    This laid the groundwork for education reform and the schooling system we have today.

    1946: Rockefeller Foundation grants the General Education Board $7.5 billion

    1953: Reece Committee of the US House of Representatives Reveals Agenda of Carnegie Endowment and Rockefeller Foundation on Education

    “It seems incredible that the trustees of typically American fortune-created foundations should have permitted them to be used to finance ideas and practices incompatible with the fundamental concepts of our Constitution. Yet there seems evidence that this may have occurred.”

    -Norman Dodd, Director of Research, Special Committee to Investigate Tax-Exempt Foundations, 1954 [2]

    1968: Edith Roosevelt’s Article “The Foundation Machine” Indicts Carnegie Funded Textbooks

    Carnegie funded “Programmed Textbooks” were distributed to “culturally deprived areas.” Edith Roosevelt stated that “these young children are being indoctrinated with a pattern of anti-social ideas that will completely and violently alienate them from the mainstream of American middle-class values.”

    1979: US Department of Education Created

    1986: Carnegie Teaching Panel Charts New Teacher Framework & Provides $900,000 in Grants for Reforms

    2003: 14% of American Adults are Illiterate

    The National Assessment of Adult Literacy (NAAL) administered tests which revealed 14% of US residents would have extreme difficulty with reading and written comprehension. In 2003, some 30 million American adults had Below Basic prose literacy, 27 million had Below Basic document literacy, and 46 million had Below Basic quantitative literacy.

  • UN Plans Tyrannical Future for You – Alex Newman, Greg Hunter
    https://rumble.com/v4qgrbh-un-plans-tyrannical-future-for-you-alex-newman.html

    Award-winning journalist Alex Newman, author of the popular book “Deep State” and the new best-selling book called “Indoctrinating Our Children to Death,” says the UN’s quest for total tyrannical control of your life is coming sooner than you could imagine. Newman explains, “The bigger story here that people are not paying attention to is the UN is coming together in September . . . and they are having ‘The Summit of the Future.’ They are telling us they are going to bring out radical drastic reforms in the structure of the UN . . . and the power of the UN. Think of it as the biggest power grab ever at the global level. The Secretary General of the UN (António Guterres) has put out briefs where he is calling for the UN to be the one world global dictatorship with him at the helm. In emergencies, the UN would have all power in emergencies and have all power to oversee emergency response. . . . They say the crisis could be a climate crisis, an economic crisis, environmental crisis, pandemic crisis, black swan crisis or maybe something from outer space. So, basically, anything could be a crisis, and when the Secretary General declares a crisis, all power and authority would go to the UN. This is like a blank check on the wealth and liberty on every person on the planet, and this is coming soon. It is eminent. This is coming in September at the UN, and it is a power grab of historic proportions. They know their time is short, and they are going for the big enchilada here. This is really a summit for a tyrannical future. . . . They want control of every aspect of your life.”

    If you think the “depopulation” or murder program by the Deep State is some sort of conspiracy theory or myth, think again. Newman says, “One of the interesting things about going to the UN conferences is they are totally open and totally transparent about the fact that they think there are way too many of us on this planet. We are taking up their space and consuming their resources. They say this openly. They say there are way too many people having way too many babies, and we have to drastically cut back on the number of people on the planet. They have a whole agency dedicated to this called the UN Population Fund.”

    One sure fire way to kill a lot of people in a short amount of time is war. Newman says, “They have understood, the globalists, the Deep State, the evil doers and the sick cabal, have understood for a very long time that war was the best mechanism for bringing about their totalitarian one world government. This is not speculation on my part. This is what they say. Their game plan is war, famine, energy crisis and economic crisis. These are all tools and catalysts for accelerating this agenda. If millions of people die in a third world war, and it does not matter if it is Iran and Israel, or China and Tiawan, or Ukraine and Russia, it really does not matter, they want millions and millions of people dead so people will give up their attachment to the nation state, self-government and individual liberty and give up anything, money or freedom, anything to make it stop.”

    Don’t lose hope because Newman also talks about all the things you can do to not comply with tyranny. Newman also points out what state and local governments can do and are doing to resist this UN total control of everything. Newman says, “We are at war, and everyone needs to put on the full armor of God.”

  • "According to a recent Federal Reserve report, an international agreement reached in the 1990s mandates, need a new system banking regulations. These modifications aim to align national policies with globally established standards. Despite long-standing opposition from influential banking institutions, the proposed changes are expected to take effect by the end of the year. The reforms primarily focus on restricting banks' lending capabilities, ensuring they conform to universal guidelines. It is crucial for the Federal Reserve to have a strong leader who can resist pressure from powerful financial institutions and safeguard the stability of America's financial system."

    The integration of the international financial system has led to large, globally active firms operating within a system of national government and regulation. While there is no realistic prospect for a global banking regulator, the responsibility and authority for financial stability continue to rest with national or regional authorities. The challenge lies in effectively sharing oversight of these large firms among regulators. Varying forms of regulation across countries are reasonable, considering different economic circumstances, currencies, and levels of depth and development in banking and capital markets. Even between the United States and the European Union, legitimate differences exist within the broader convergence around minimum regulatory and supervisory standards developed at various forums.

    The financial crisis exposed vulnerabilities created by foreign banking operations, and the Basel Committee and national regulators were slow to respond to the expansion in scale and scope of the world’s largest banking organizations. Addressing these vulnerabilities requires thoughtful coordination and effective supervision of international activities by U.S. banking organizations.


    In summary, the Federal Reserve’s role in regulating international banking activities is critical, and strong leadership is essential to navigate the complexities of global financial systems and ensure stability.

  • Vienna, the capital city of Austria, has a rich and complex history that spans over 2,000 years. The city's history is a blend of various cultures, empires, and historical events that have shaped it into the beautiful and vibrant city it is today. Here are some key moments in Vienna's history:

    Roman Empire (1st century BC - 5th century AD): The Romans founded the city of Vienna in 15 BC and named it Vindobona. During this period, Vienna was an important center for trade and commerce, and it was also a key military base.
    Middle Ages (5th century - 13th century): After the fall of the Roman Empire, Vienna was part of the Germanic kingdoms and later became a significant trading center during the Middle Ages. In the 13th century, Vienna became the residence of the Babenberg dynasty, which ruled the Duchy of Austria.
    Habsburg Dynasty (13th century - 1918): In 1278, the Habsburg dynasty took over the rule of Austria, and Vienna became their main residence. This period saw the construction of many grand buildings, including the Hofburg Palace, St. Stephen's Cathedral, and the Belvedere Palace. The Habsburgs also established the University of Vienna, which became a center of learning and culture.
    Baroque Period (17th century): During the Baroque period, Vienna experienced a cultural and artistic renaissance, with famous artists such as Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven living and working in the city. The city's architecture, music, and art flourished during this time, and many of its iconic landmarks, such as the Schönbrunn Palace, were built during this period.
    Enlightenment and Revolution (18th-19th century): The Enlightenment brought significant changes to Vienna, with the establishment of new scientific and philosophical institutions, such as the Academy of Sciences and the University of Vienna. However, the 19th century also saw political turmoil, with the Revolutions of 1848 and 1866, which aimed to establish democratic reforms and independence from the Habsburg monarchy.
    Fin de Siècle (late 19th-early 20th century): The late 19th and early 20th centuries saw a cultural and intellectual boom in Vienna, known as the "Fin de Siècle." This period was characterized by the rise of psychoanalysis, with Sigmund Freud being one of its most prominent figures. The city also became a hub for modern art, literature, and music, with artists like Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, and Arnold Schönberg contributing to the city's cultural landscape.
    World War I and II (20th century): During World War I, Vienna was the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the city suffered significantly during the war. Following the war, Austria was reduced to a small republic, and Vienna lost its status as a imperial capital. During World War II, Austria was annexed by Nazi Germany, and Vienna was occupied by Soviet troops until 1955.
    Post-War Era (mid-20th century): After World War II, Vienna began to rebuild and recover. The city hosted international organizations such as the United Nations and became a center for diplomacy and international relations. The city also continued to thrive culturally, with the establishment of new museums, opera houses, and concert halls.
    Modern Vienna (late 20th century-present): Today, Vienna is a bustling metropolis with a diverse economy, rich cultural heritage, and high standard of living. It continues to be a hub for arts, science, and innovation, attracting visitors and residents from around the world.

  • Canada's woke nightmare: A warning to the West | Documentary
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qt2AuVQKpq0
    Under Justin Trudeau, Canada has sought to position itself as the global bastion of progressive politics. In my latest Telegraph documentary, seen above, I went to the former British colony to find out how Canadians are dealing with Trudeau’s radical reforms; from the promotion of gender ideology in schools and the mass legalisation of drugs, to his extreme new suicide laws and clamp downs on freedom of speech. I began my investigation in one of the country’s most liberal cities, Vancouver. Possession of up to 2.5 grams of hard drugs, including heroin, cocaine and fentanyl, has been legalised in the city as part of a three year experiment which began in January of this year. If the aim was to combat the opioid crisis that already beset the city then it appears there is still much to be done as vast tent sites line the streets, patrolled by roaming zombie-like drug addicts. As we filmed on Hastings Street, infamous as the epicentre of Vancouver’s homelessness crisis, I witnessed a topless man shoot a needle into his arm five feet from me. Though it wasn’t quite as bad as San Francisco, where my cameraman and I came under attack from angry vagrants, the scenes were still shocking. It’s not just the homeless who patrol the streets of Vancouver. Chris Elston, better known online as Billboard Chris, campaigns against the imposition of gender ideology on children, whether through Canada’s education system or via dangerous operations to “transition” young adults. As his nickname suggests, Chris walks around Vancouver wearing signs protesting gender ideology, encouraging lively debates with passers-by which he puts on YouTube. Chris kindly allowed our crew to join him on a walkabout, where we found many Canadians horrified by the use of puberty blockers in children and the promotion of biological men in women’s sports. We did encounter some opposition of course, mostly through the odd shout or flicking of the finger. So much for Canadian politeness. One aggressive gentleman, tall, ageing and angry, began a tirade against Chris with the rather bizarre singular message that he is “queer”. Part of Canada’s social revolution can also be witnessed in its extreme new euthanasia laws. In 2016, the ruling Liberal Party passed legislation enabling assisted suicide for terminally ill Canadians. Next year the legislation will be expanded to include those with mental health problems. As Christianity declines across Canada, and the liberal obsession with “bodily autonomy” and “personal freedom” reaches its logical conclusion, a new dystopia is forming. As Dr Konia Trouton, a euthanasia advocate, told me, “we are an organised society but within that organisation we have to allow some freedoms and opportunities, this is not a communist system where we can try and reign that in”. The campaign group Euthanasia Prevention Coalition estimates that 13,500 people chose state-assisted suicide last year. To prevent wokeism from spreading it is important to have a strong opposition party. Canada’s Conservatives have been historically weak in pushing back against Trudeau, however, their recently elected leader, Pierre Poilievre, has injected fresh energy into the party. Whilst there are some who still question Poillievre’s conservative credentials, his strategy seems to be working; one recent poll gave his party a twelve point lead over Trudeau’s Liberals. However, the most successful opponents to Canada’s social revolution have so far not been politicians but members of the public. Our film highlights some of these brave individuals, including Dr Jordan Peterson, perhaps the most high-profile Canadian in the world other than the country’s leader. During my travels I found ordinary people appalled at Canada’s surrender to drug dealers, its contempt for freedom of speech, its enforcement of gender ideology on children and a breezy willingness to terminate the lives of its own citizens. However, for all the depressing stories of people losing their jobs, or being hounded by the government, these cases were equally inspirational. Whilst Canada is a warning to the West, there are also individual messages of hope from those brave individuals fighting for their freedom.
    Canada's woke nightmare: A warning to the West | Documentary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qt2AuVQKpq0 Under Justin Trudeau, Canada has sought to position itself as the global bastion of progressive politics. In my latest Telegraph documentary, seen above, I went to the former British colony to find out how Canadians are dealing with Trudeau’s radical reforms; from the promotion of gender ideology in schools and the mass legalisation of drugs, to his extreme new suicide laws and clamp downs on freedom of speech. I began my investigation in one of the country’s most liberal cities, Vancouver. Possession of up to 2.5 grams of hard drugs, including heroin, cocaine and fentanyl, has been legalised in the city as part of a three year experiment which began in January of this year. If the aim was to combat the opioid crisis that already beset the city then it appears there is still much to be done as vast tent sites line the streets, patrolled by roaming zombie-like drug addicts. As we filmed on Hastings Street, infamous as the epicentre of Vancouver’s homelessness crisis, I witnessed a topless man shoot a needle into his arm five feet from me. Though it wasn’t quite as bad as San Francisco, where my cameraman and I came under attack from angry vagrants, the scenes were still shocking. It’s not just the homeless who patrol the streets of Vancouver. Chris Elston, better known online as Billboard Chris, campaigns against the imposition of gender ideology on children, whether through Canada’s education system or via dangerous operations to “transition” young adults. As his nickname suggests, Chris walks around Vancouver wearing signs protesting gender ideology, encouraging lively debates with passers-by which he puts on YouTube. Chris kindly allowed our crew to join him on a walkabout, where we found many Canadians horrified by the use of puberty blockers in children and the promotion of biological men in women’s sports. We did encounter some opposition of course, mostly through the odd shout or flicking of the finger. So much for Canadian politeness. One aggressive gentleman, tall, ageing and angry, began a tirade against Chris with the rather bizarre singular message that he is “queer”. Part of Canada’s social revolution can also be witnessed in its extreme new euthanasia laws.

  • There is a debate among economists and financial experts about whether the Chinese economy resembles a Ponzi scheme. Here are arguments from both sides:

    Arguments for the Chinese economy being a Ponzi scheme:

    1. Debt levels: The Chinese economy has been rapidly accumulating debt in recent years, with both the government and private sector taking on significant amounts of debt. A report by the Bank for International Settlements found that China's debt-to-GDP ratio had surged from 100% to over 250% in the past decade. Such high debt levels could be seen as unsustainable and possibly indicative of a Ponzi scheme.

    2. Overinvestment: In the past decade, China has invested heavily in infrastructure and real estate, leading to overcapacity issues and a potential bubble in the property market. This overinvestment could be viewed as an attempt to maintain economic growth and keep the Ponzi-like system going.

    3. Insufficient regulation: Critics argue that China's regulatory framework is inadequate, allowing for corruption and financial fraud to occur more easily. The lack of transparency and regulation could be seen as a hallmark of a Ponzi scheme.

    Arguments against the Chinese economy being a Ponzi scheme:

    1. Economic growth: China's economy has been growing at a rapid pace for the past few decades, driven by a mix of multiple factors, including a large and growing middle class, a deepening tech sector, and heavy government investment in a variety of industries. A Ponzi scheme is built on the premise of using new investors' funds to pay off older investors, which is inconsistent with the country's reported economic growth, output, and sustained trade surpluses.

    2. Reforms: The Chinese government is aware of the issues facing the economy and has been taking steps to address them. Reforms have been introduced to control debt, consolidate excess capacity, and strengthen the regulatory environment. These steps indicate a willingness to address problems and not let the current system collapse.

    3. China's reserves: The Chinese government has accumulated significant international reserves, estimated to be in the trillions of dollars, giving the country a strong financial buffer. The reserves could be seen as a counterpoint to the idea that the Chinese economy is a Ponzi scheme.

    In conclusion, the Chinese economy's resemblance to a Ponzi scheme is a topic of debate. While some point to the country's high debt levels, overinvestment, and inadequate regulation, others argue that sustained economic growth, reforms, and financial reserves counteract the argument. Regardless, the Chinese government's continued focus on reforming the economy and addressing the issues that exist suggests that they are taking steps to address potential problems and not letting the system collapse.
