George Soros on the New World Order: Why China Must Join Now!
0 Comments/in George Soros“I think this would be time because you really need to bring China into the creation of a new world order, a financial world order. They are kind of reluctant members of the IMF. They play along, but they don’t make much of a contribution because it’s not their institution. Their share is not commensurate …their voting rights are not commensurate to their weight, so I think you need a new world order that China has to be part of the process of creating it and they have to buy in. They have to own it the same way as, let’s say, the United States owns the Washington consensus, the current order, and I think this would be a more stable one where you would have co-ordinated policies. I think the makings of it are already there because the G20, in agreeing to peer reviews, effectively is moving in that direction.”

Montagu Norman Quote: The Truth About Political Parties and Elections
0 Comments/in Montagu Norman“Give the people a toy to keep them busy long enough, give them ‘political parties’! Then they will waste all their energy and wit on meaningless occupation with individuals and other trivialities. So they won’t bother us anymore, and we can run our business at will. But to keep the toy from getting boring eventually and the population’s discontent from boiling over, a ritual game with a cathartic function as a pressure valve must be inserted at regular intervals. We call it “parliamentary elections,” which sounds important. Then there is peace for the next four years, especially since everyone believes they decided something themselves. The media? They play our game all by themselves—without realizing it. Occasionally we give them a morsel when we want to functionally neutralize a somewhat more alert, and thus unwelcome, person or group. Then they are satisfied, and so is the population; after all, they have something to gossip about. By splitting the voters through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energy fighting for battles over issues of no importance.”
Montagu Norman
