Ferguson is best known for his investment theory of party competition, which was detailed most extensively in his 1995 book Golden Rule: The Investment Theory of Party Competition and the Logic of Money-Driven Political Systems. The theory states that political systems featuring party competition are best understood as competitions for investment from wealthy segments of society. This is because political campaigns are expensive, and so political parties whose policies are most attractive to wealthy 'investors' will tend to be more successful as they are better able to attract the finances required to win election campaigns.[7]

The theory contrasts with the median voter theorem, which states that the outcome of elections will be the preferences of the median voter as political parties converge on the 'center ground' as they compete for votes.

In 2009, the documentary Golden Rule: The Investment Theory of Politics about the theory was released, it featured speakers including Thomas Ferguson, Noam Chomsky and Michael Albert.[8] - Wikid

That's too bad. Wouldn't a proper 'let them eat cake' psychopath prefer to be known as one of the architects of record breaking genocide in the billions? Makes the numbers of dead in WWII a drop in the bucket. There go all those guilt trips.

It's only fair that if vaccines were used to save the third world fuckers so they could proliferate beyond their resources, then vaccines should be used to terminate them with extreme prejudice.

Is there a depopulation agenda at work? The (Catholic) LifeSite News summarized a recent talk about this by Robert Malone.
Reprinting because the trolls have been claiming Dr. Malone favored depopulation. There is some history here we would all benefit from knowing...

In a speech at the 2023 White Coat Summit, Dr. Robert Malone asked the crucial question about the so-called COVID vaccines:

“Why would a government wish to advance this technology?”

His reluctant conclusion is that the novel mRNA injections have been developed by the CIA to assist in a global depopulation program – which has existed in the United States since the 1970s. ...

Dr. Malone’s softly-spoken speech argues that the U.S. government is not merely the enemy of its own people – but almost all of them, everywhere. Almost, that is, except for a small elite.




If you find yourself shocked or incredulous at this suggestion, Dr. Malone understands your concerns. He says this himself in a Substack post on a 1974 National Security Study Memo (NSSM) known as The Kissinger Report. ...

The depopulation agenda is not limited in scope to the United States. It is intended to have a global impact. ...

The final section of a plan almost four decades old refers to the development of novel “fertility control technology” and the use of the mass media to mold compliance in the global population. It would create what Dr. Malone termed “mass formation psychosis” to force compliance with this agenda.

Finally, the report prefigures the means of undermining the sovereignty of nations in coordinating “worldwide political commitment” to the depopulation agenda. This is a blueprint for a globalized cull of humanity, which Dr. Malone claims has been advanced by the work of the CIA. ...

To be blunt – DARPA is CIA. DARPA is the operational arm of CIA for the development and deployment of technology.

The “technology” developed and deployed here is a “genetic vaccine” to advance a global depopulation agenda in line with an internationally coordinated population reduction program. Dr Malone has written about DARPA’s involvement in the development of these novel injections, and has claimed elsewhere that “vaccine” company Moderna is “a CIA front” – also created by DARPA.

Henry Kissinger, mentor to Klaus Schwab
As I wrote for LifeSiteNews in January, Henry Kissinger was not only the mentor of Klaus Schwab – but also the man behind the creation of the World Economic Forum. ...

Malone notes this, and the fact that Kissinger continues to collaborate with the WEF. He goes further, claiming the WEF was created by the CIA for the purposes of advancing its global agenda.

This globalist network tirelessly promotes agendas such as antinatalist policies, ESG, and Net Zero, whose aggressive implementation will likely collapse industrial society.

Hormone-disrupting contraception, the murder of the unborn, and the promotion of childless sexual lifestyles are all beneficial to an agenda of depopulation.

The provision of “puberty blockers” to children who through social contagion believe themselves “trans” will leave them permanently sterilized.

These factors amount to a remarkable alignment with an overall agenda to reduce the number of humans. It is an agenda with a proven blueprint – itself followed by the creation of the very agencies it suggested as necessary for the execution of the plan.

How telling that four years after Kissinger moved to create the WEF, a report is commissioned by him on the means to achieve a reduction in global population.

The recommendations of The Kissinger Report became public policy under President Gerald Ford, who in 1975 advanced National Security Decision 314, recommended here and recorded here.

https://www.fordlibrarymuseum.gov/library/document/0310/nsdm314.pdf

https://history.state.gov/historicaldocuments/frus1969-76ve14p1/d122

Dr. Malone noted both in his video address and the above-mentioned post that “the report indicates that global population must not exceed 8 billion human beings. Is it a coincidence that in 2020 total global human inhabitants reached 7.84 billion?”

This is a coincidence which seems ever more remarkable when Dr. Malone also recalls that many leading billionaires have repeatedly met to discuss the limiting of the human population. ...

Malone’s calmly reasoned address points to long-standing coordinated actions consistent with the aims of the 1974 Kissinger Report. He reveals, without hyperbole, an orchestrated campaign to depopulate the earth, which has seen the media, the U.S. government, and the CIA collude with billionaires and the global, non-government organizations created to serve this agenda.

I'll repeat this one here. Former head of MI6 no less, 'fessing the plan.

I noticed this post on Zerohedge this morning about the Egyptian president telling his people that progress is starvation. This is so meme worthy it literally writes itself:

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/sisi-tells-egyptians-hunger-price-worth-paying-progress-bizarre-speech

“Don’t you Egyptians dare say you would rather eat than build and progress,” Sisi said. “If the price of the nation’s progress and prosperity is to go hungry and thirsty, then let us not eat or drink,” he added…

In a meandering and times informal dialogue, the Egyptian president suggested ways in which he could “destroy” Egypt, if he were so inclined, by distributing pills to foster chaos in the country.

Sisi said that he spoke with the Supreme Judicial Council regarding how easy the country would be to destroy and had concluded that giving 100,000 people in “difficult circumstances” tramadol, a strong opioid, would do the trick at a cost of no more than $30m. It is unclear why he publicized such remarks but his comments were widely condemned online...

Egypt has been gripped by an economic crisis for years, a situation exacerbated by the war in Ukraine which has severely affected food prices in the country.

Official figures showed annual inflation in Egypt reached a new record 39.7 percent in August, while the Egyptian pound has been on a dramatic slide against the dollar. A dollar buys 30 Egyptian pounds today compared to just under 20 exactly a year ago.

Egypt has been dependent on bailouts from its wealthier allies in the Gulf and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in recent years, as investors pull billions out of the country.

While the financial crisis has a range of causes, many opposition figures have pointed fingers at the increasing grip the military has held over the economy following the 2013 coup that ousted the elected government of Mohamed Morsi.

What kind of clown world am I living in?

For thousands of years Egypt exported wheat to Europe. In 1970 Egypt's population was about 35 million. Then the Islamic fundamentalists became a thing. Today its population is about 109 million. It is now the largest importer of wheat in the world.

There is no polite way out. So, genocide has to become a topic of dinner conversations.

Elon Musk: The Mind Virus Is a Death Cult and the End of Civilization

Les Knight says there are 8 billion people on the planet, but he wishes there were none.

"He can go to hell," responded @ElonMusk. "You can start with yourself."

There is a conversation about population control. The problem is, it is always seized by the self serving psychopaths of each generation maneuvering to impose genetic substitutions with their own genes while they dominate the power levers of society and slaughter everybody else.

That means the conversation is disgraced for at least a few generations before it can even be taken up again.

To date, there has never been a truly enlightened public conversation by sane and altruistic individuals on how to humanely reduce population in a way that is measured, just and without arbitrarily imposing mass suffering. The Satanists WANT to impose maximum suffering, like spraying the populace with RAID and watching them twitch in agony and die.

Former vice president at Pfizer, Dr. Mike Yeadon: The so-called "pandemic" was planned and co-ordinated in advance, by unelected globalist bodies like the WHO and WEF, as a pretext to deliberately depopulate the planet via lethal mRNA injections:

"We're facing something much worse than an alleged virus. The injuries to people from these so called vaccines... I wish I could tell you that it was accidental, but it wasn't accidental. I'm convinced that these injections have been made to injure people, to maim and kill deliberately."

In that video, Mike told a CHD.TV reporter:

“Until 2011, for many years, I was responsible for worldwide research and early development in [Pfizer’s] field of respiratory and allergy new medicines.…

“There’s not many corners of this industry I’ve not had some knowledge of, and when I started noticing former colleagues of mine, including Sir Patrick Vallance, saying things on the television I knew weren’t true and that I knew he knew weren’t true, that’s when the penny dropped for me—probably February 2020.

“I remember saying to my wife, ‘This is not what they’re saying it is. Something is going on.’

“And then when I saw not only my country locking down but dozens of countries locking down at the same time, I would say to your listeners, that was proof, and it’s still proof, of a supranational operation. There’s no way it could’ve happened at the local level, at the country level.

“Therefore, it must’ve occurred at the level above. Whether it was the WHO or the World Economic Forum or other, I don’t know, but I’m convinced that action alone absolutely proves unequivocally that we didn’t just get some virus drifting in and then, ‘Oh! We all panicked.’

“They all did the same stupid, ineffective, known-not-to-work things at the same time, none of which were in their countries’ pandemic preparedness plans. Because I’ve read them all, right?

“So when I accuse these people of lying, I do it confident they’re not going to sue me because I would say, ‘C’mon, sue me! I’d love to have discovery in court. You will lose, big time.’

“And so they won’t sue me. What they do is smear me and censor me. And I don’t care anymore because we’re facing something much worse than an alleged virus.

“At the very least, the things people have been injected with—the injuries to people from these so-called ‘vaccines’ … I wish I could tell you that it was accidental, but it wasn’t accidental.

“I’ve spent thirty-two years in rational drug design. I know, and I knew and wrote it before any of them had emergency use authorizations, that they were dangerous.…

“I’m convinced and would say with my hand on a Bible in front of a court that these injections have been made to injure people, to maim and kill deliberately.” ...

BaddestAss Truth-Teller Sasha Latypova paints the situation with her usual fiery wit and forthrightness in her response to your tweet:

“Mike is 100% correct. Here is proof. The ‘middle’ can go and screw themselves off the cliff. Going half way between the truth and lie will put you among the liars.

“My recent testimony to state gov officials:

“‘covid vaccines are promoted as compliant pharmaceutical products, but they are indeed medical countermeasures that were contracted for by the Department of Defense (DoD) and Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA). As such, they are without any effective regulatory consumer safety oversight at any stage of the process. This is based on 6 key statutes and related federal laws outlined in the memo we have written for Senator Johnson in December 2022 (attached).

“‘1. All countermeasures were ordered by the DOD, typically as ‘demonstrations’ via Other Transactions Authority contracts. DOD oversaw the development, manufacture, and distribution of the countermeasures. The contracts include the removal of liability for the manufacturers and any contractors along the supply and distribution chain under the 2005 PREP Act except in case of willful misconduct. While the DOD/BARDA countermeasure contracts refer to safety and efficacy requirements and mention current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) compliance, this language in contract is unenforceable. Judge Truncale (TX) agreed with this interpretation when dismissing Brook Jackson’s case v Pfizer under False Claims Act. The case is now being appealed.

“‘2. Covid ‘vaccines’ were pushed under a ‘bait and switch’ scheme where the actual delivered product always substituted with the Emergency Use Authorized (EUA) version of the product (with exception of tiny amount of 35K doses of Comirnaty).

“‘3. Use of Emergency Use Authorized (EUA) covered countermeasures under a declared Public Health Emergency cannot constitute a clinical investigation (21 USC 360bbb-3(k)), therefore these countermeasures could not be tested for safety or efficacy in accordance with US law (21 CFR 312 and 21 CFR 601), nor could compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) or Good Distribution Practices (GxP in general) be enforced by the FDA. This legal fact was known to the FDA, DOD and BARDA officials and to the pharmaceutical companies signing these contracts. This fact was not known to the public, clinical investigators, clinical trial subjects or most vaccinators.

“‘In conclusion, a medical product for which no enforceable liability exists, where all risks are pushed onto recipients, while all profits are privatized, is not a medical product at all. It should be treated as a dangerous substance, stopped, seized, and investigated.’”

By now, most people reading this know the DOD was ultimately responsible for the “warp speed” death jab rollout. By calling it a “countermeasure” to a biological weapons attack, (bioweapons that were also funded by the U.S. federal government) they got around the “rules”, which were already a license to kill as they stood. And what was the primary rule they completely disregarded? It was INFORMED CONSENT, which our loving government “waived” for us, since it was an “emergency” (to hurry up and barcode, catalogue, disable, and slaughter as many Americans as possible).

In desperation to fulfill the WEF’s agenda, the U.S. Federal government unleashed hell-on-earth upon the American people. They intended that their actions would move America closer to a complete collapse. NONE of this was an accident or a “mistake.” The U.S. Federal government is the single most serious threat to the physical survival of the American people, and the people of many other nations as well.

So let’s “MAGA” all the way to the next fake pandemic, and another “warp speed” nightmare. It won’t MATTER if gas prices (or taxes) are lower, because it’s impossible to benefit from such things when you’re dying or dead.

BOTH “sides” (at the top) agree on ONE thing for sure. They agree that most of humanity must be exterminated, and they don’t care what nationality we happen to be. Handing the DOD the power to unleash bioweapons AND deadly drug injections upon the American population wasn’t a mistake, and there was no mistaking where such treasonous lunacy would lead. The DOD shall retain this power, but only IF we’re stupid/weak enough to go along with this AGAIN. Their next one (Disease X”) is to be the WEF’s “final solution” to our existence.

The last plandemic was just a beta-test. Now they know how we might try to defend ourselves, and what their own “countermeasures” are going to be, in order to assure they meet their “sustainable development” (code for depopulation/extermination) goals before 2030.

Patrick says

since it was an “emergency” (to hurry up and barcode, catalogue, disable, and slaughter as many Americans as possible).

If that was/is the goal, they haven't done a very good job of it...so far?

https://vigilantfox.substack.com/p/bret-weinstein-confirms-depopulation

While the entire world tuned into the Super Bowl Sunday evening, evolutionary biologist and Darkhorse Podcast host Bret Weinstein and Alex Jones filmed a two-hour discussion on the fate of humanity.

Alex Jones highlighted what he saw as the core problems, mentioning issues like open borders, currency devaluation, and the general destabilization of society.

Jones commented, “They [powers that be] can’t ever actually build anything. So they’re sitting there going, ‘Look what a great artist I am,’ smashing things, and then society looks like a Jackson Pollock. But how are they ever going to paint a Rembrandt?”

“They’re not,” replied Weinstein. “What they have recognized is that they have no use for us. And I wish that was an exaggeration, but you can see this so clearly in what they did to the public over COVID.”

The following is a short list of destructive COVID policies that seem like they were intended to kill and cause harm, rather than save lives:

#1 - Early treatment was smeared and suppressed. Doctors faced severe punishment for prescribing/promoting HCQ and ivermectin.

#2 - Hospitals pushed Remdesivir and ventilators on COVID patients, two regimens that were not just highly lucrative, but also highly detrimental to patient outcomes. According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, in the first weeks of the COVID outbreak, “76.4% of COVID-19 patients (aged 18 to 65) in New York City who were placed on ventilators died.”

#3 - “There was never an argument that made any sense for delivering those shots to healthy young people.”

#4 - Shots quickly extended to pregnant women, young children, and babies, the last people you would want to inject without knowing the long-term consequences.

#5 - Once we discovered the shots did not control disease, the argument for injecting young people went away, but authorities continued pushing them anyway.

#6 - The media and authorities cared so much about “saving lives” during COVID. But now that COVID is behind us and excess deaths remain high, no one in authority cares to investigate what’s causing it.

#7 - “To this day, Harvard apparently just reinitiated their policy of requiring those shots for their own students.”

After reflecting on the big picture, Weinstein remarked, “Whatever is driving doesn’t care that it is going to kill people who have long lives of potentially important contributions to make.”

The World Economic Forum (WEF) is pushing a disturbing new slogan for its anti-human depopulation agenda, arguing that we need fewer “souls on the planet” to fight “climate change.”

An unelected globalist who serves as one of WEF’s so-called “agenda contributors” unveiled the new depopulation catchphrase while complaining that those who disagree are standing in the way of “saving the planet.”

Klaus Schwab’s Switzerland-based elitist organization is arguing that eliminating human beings will make it possible to achieve the WEF’s “Net Zero” targets.

WEF agents now demand that a major “decarbonization” plan be implemented to “reduce the number of feet” on Earth.
