https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlcWTHZ3pPA #economist #dannydorling points out the falling #lifeexpectancy (and rising #infantmortality )

"What happened before which I'm simply going to call Austerity, was far more devastating than the pandemic, and the pandemic was probably not quite as devastating, we have a record which is similar to other European countries, partly because so many elderly people died early before the pandemic occurred. so that's the context."

" #austerity " = #averybritishgenocide

#pandemic #uk #headstart #firsttheycame #context

falling since #2010, since the work capability assessment frauds, and the rest.

funny how we have paid with our lives, to pay for the crimes of bankers, and now we have bankers in parliament...

3,137 views Premiered on 4 Dec 2023 THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF MEDICINE
The UK had the highest life expectancy of the world's larger countries from 1950 to 1955. But every year from 2012 onwards, projections for life expectancy in the UK have been revised downwards by the ONS. What happened? The answer is austerity. Its impact was far deadlier than the COVID-19 pandemic.

Life expectancy at birth is a key measure of the health of any given population – and Britain's is getting worse.

Other high-income countries also experienced falls or stalls in life expectancy between 2014 and 2015. However, when trends for 18 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries were examined, researchers found that all countries except the US and UK recovered with “robust gains” in 2015-16. The United States is very poor company to be in when it comes to public health.

In a talk given at the Royal Society of Medicine in London during the colloquium ”Recent advances in medicine and surgery” on Thursday 30 November 2023, Professor Danny Dorling looks at what happened – and who paid the price.

This is an audio-only recording of Professor Dorling's talk.

Economist Fakes Political History Of Gaza

"The Economist is faking history:

In the absence of clear government direction the Israeli defence establishment is doing all the planning. Its preferred solution is to see the **PA ultimately return to Gaza, which it controlled until Hamas’s coup in 2007.

#Decoding The #Economist #2017 #Cover — “Planet Trump” | #Tarot and the “ #Trump #Cards

You’ll notice that the last tarot card (bottom right) is entitled “The Star” and shows a comet, in the dead center. At the bottom of this tarot card is the surface of a reddish/purple cratered moon (perhaps this tells us where to look for the comet). I believe placing “The Star” tarot card last is significant, and it is meant to mark the end of this cycle, as Edward suggests in his remote viewing session.

Lyn Buchanan’s RVing of the future correlates with Edward’s work. Sean Patrick Hazlett did two great interviews with Lyn Buchanan on this subject, which are on Sean’s YT channel, “Through a Glass Darkly”.
What Causes The Massive Depopulation by 2040 That Lyn Buchanan Saw in 1998 (Episode 105)?- Oct 31, 2022 | Through A Glass Darkly
And
The Passive Revolt of 2040 with Lyn Buchanan (Episode 148)- March 29, 2023 | Through A Glass Darkly

From the first interview, this is what Lyn Buchanan saw in the future:
Quote @7m 41s
in the year 2020, a series of man-made natural disasters was going to start happening. It would last for about 20 years. By the end of the 20 years, almost 75 percent of the population of the U.S, and generally the world, would have been killed off. So a resident [population] of about 25 percent, and that after that the governments would have to change. The economy would have to change everything. People would be more self-sufficient. Starting in 2020, I got that cities schools and things like that, would start emptying out. People would start teaching their kids at home. Any communication between people would be through technological means and all that, and that it was a man-made natural disaster, and a series. It was the start of a series of man-made natural disasters.

@19m 37s
and what I got was that after 2040 the population is culled out, the remnant of people are demanding honest government, fair economic situations. They still live separated, and they still have the technology that they didn't have back in the 1800s. So communication with each other through technology is so much easier and becomes the standardized thing. The personal meetings and all that generally wind up being a thing of the past.

Also the IQ level of, the general IQ level average goes very high. So, you know the remnant of the people are generally very high IQ, very demanding on honesty freedom and so on. And that for the next many, many decades it's really sort of an, earth is really sort of the ideal place to live, that mankind as a unit is better off for this whole thing.

What if each tarot card represents one year, starting with 2016 for the "The Tower" tarot card? This would make sense since the second tarot card "Judgement" has Trump sitting on the USA, holding a crown in his right hand and the scepter with eagle [symbolizing US] in his left hand. 2017 would be when Trump took office as POTUS. Following this logic, the "Death" tarot card would be 2020 and that is certainly when the pandemic hit. Now, while we didn't get the mushroom cloud in 2020, we did get death and pestilence as indicated by the two insects on the "Death" card. And lastly, the bottom right tarot card "The #Star" would then correspond to #2023. Edward did say the event could happen in 2023.

A quotation from Rogers, Will

An economist is a man that can tell you anything about — he’ll tell you what can happen under any given conditions, and his guess is liable to be just as good as anybody else’s, too.

Will Rogers (1879-1935) American humorist

economist says: family working together is the future - crisis opportunity for change - empower the middle class! now!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans-Werner_Sinn

It doesn’t happen often, but this time have to give cudos to “a classic” (very conservative, not very revolutionary thinking) economist Hans Werner von Sinn:

  • “Take care of yourselves. Don’t believe that the state can do it. The state will be hopelessly overwhelmed with the socio-political tasks. Social security systems are not in a position to continue the development of living standards as we are used to. The sooner everyone realizes this, the more they will take precautions for the later years of life.”
  • The economics professor advises young people to not to wait too long for thinking about having kids and to concentrate on traditional family images.
  • “Family cohesion (families working WITH instead of AGAINST each other) will become increasingly important in view of the difficulties of the state,” Sinn explained.
  • “Some say that the ECB did not cause the price increases, so it does not have to do anything about it. One cannot argue more wrongly, because the mandate does not focus on the causes of inflation, but on the possibilities of combating it,” the ex-ifo boss continued

…. but not to endanger the 0% financed real estate bubble, where banks sell thousands of vacant buildings in Munich in a circle, IMF-ECB-La Guarde (“The Guardian” (of the banks)) does – nothing.

  • “And they consist of interest rate hikes.” In addition, the monetary authority is not entirely innocent of the high inflation rate. With its bond-buying program, the ECB is partly responsible for rising prices, as government securities were purchased with fresh central bank money. Low interest rates have thus encouraged indebtedness, according to Sinn.
  • The fact that the ECB has not yet heralded the interest rate turnaround, even though the US Federal Reserve raised the key interest rate by 0.25 percentage points in March, also creates an imbalance in international trade. As a result of the ECB’s inaction, the euro has been significantly devalued, which automatically leads to higher import prices – including in the energy sector.

family cohesion: it is (sometimes) hard

… unfortunately, nature decided, out of biodiversity reasons (make every individual an individual = very different from his brothers & sisters, in order to ensure that “at least one” will survive, fast changing circumstances (economic crisis, war, famine, climate change, meteoroids… u name it)

So sisters and brothers are by the design of nature – very different – thus having (sometimes) hard times – understanding each other – getting along with each other.

But IF they manage to accept each other – (and if it’s only by living next door, but never speaking to each other X-D) – things might work out.

Capitalism actually increased that acceptance problem, with some 1 to 10% doing very well (often) at the expense of the 90% (who pay their taxes) – WHILE looking down on the 90% as “bummers”.

the downfall of the middle class, is the downfall of families

or in other worlds: who want’s to put kid’s in a fu**ed up (non sustainable = it is going to end) world? (nobody)

Question: Is it any wonder – that in a system – that was not built for man, but for money “around money”, man will soon no longer appear?

Really?

I am not surprised (unfortunately).

So when “the system” – betrayed the middle class – because of lobbyism by the money of the top 10% (that sometimes “think” they are the “middle class”) – it “programmed” society – for the downfall of the middle-class (who to steal from? nothing to steal from the poor?) and the downfall of families.

It’s as simple as that.

And turning back the time – won’t help.

It won’t help driving old gas guzzling cars that need a portion of lead in the gasoline to actually function correctly.

There is only one way: forward. Into a sustainable economy that serves all. The sooner the super-rich realize this – the better. (but they will want to preserve the status quo until the very end (death)… so it’s a uphill battle for everyone else)

  • crisis as chance for transformation:
    • central banks have to be put under democratic rule – this way or another – it is inacceptable – that the central banks serve only the private banks.
  • globalization is dead – good – so we can start produce locally and FRESH again 🙂 = more jobs, but who is going to finance those jobs? surely not the existing broken system of corrupt banks.
