The Hidden Evil

The Financial Elite's Covert War Against the Civilian Population

by Mark M. Rich

Lulu Enterprises, 2008, paperback

p5
Edith Kermit Roosevelt, in an article entitled 'Elite Clique Holds Power in the US', in the Indianapolis News, December 23, 1961

The word 'Establishment' is a general term for the power elite in international finance, business, the professions and government, largely from the northeast, who wield most of the power regardless of who is in the White House... Most people are unaware of the existence of this 'legitimate Mafia'... The power of the Establishment makes itself felt from the professor who seeks a foundation grant, to the candidate for a cabinet post or State Department job. It affects the nation's policies in almost every area.

p5
Professor Antony Sutton in his book 'Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler'

Wars are started (and stopped) with no shred of coherent explanation. Political words have never matched political deeds. The reason is because the center of political power has been elsewhere than with elected and presumably responsive representatives in Washington, and this power elite has its own objectives, which are inconsistent with those of the public at large.

p5
John F. Hylan, Mayor of New York City, March 26, 1922

The real menace of our republic is the invisible government which, like a giant octopus, sprawls its slimly length over our city, state and nation. At the head is a small group of banking houses generally referred to as 'international bankers.' This little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run our government for their own selfish ends.

p6
Congressman Lawrence P. McDonald wrote in November of 1975

Money alone is not enough to quench the thirst and lusts of the super-rich. Instead, many of them use their vast wealth, and the influence such riches give them, to achieve even more power. Power of a magnitude never dreamed of by the tyrants and despots of earlier ages. Power on a worldwide scale.

p6
James Perloff in his book 'The Shadows of Power' writing about the ruling elite

It begins in private schools, the most famous being Groton. From these they have typically proceeded to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, or Columbia, there entering exclusive fraternities, such as Yale's secretive Skull and Bones... From academia they have customarily progressed to Wall Street, perhaps joining an international investment bank, such as Chase Manhattan, or a prominent law firm or brokerage house... Some of the politically inclined have signed on with the establishment think tanks like the Brookings Institution and the Rand Corporation [and] a few have found themselves on the boards of vast foundations. [From there they ascend to] high positions in the federal government, [which requires membership in a] New York-based group called the Council on Foreign Relations.

p6
professor Antony Sutton

Whatever we call [the] self-perpetuating elitist group, it is apparently fundamentally significant in the determination of world affairs, at a level far behind and above that of the elected politicians.

p7
professor Antony Sutton

Wall Street, multinational corporations, international banks and wealthy people have formed elite groups to serve as vehicles for their interests. These include Think Tanks such as the Council on Foreign Relations, the Trilateral Commission, the Bilderbergers and others, which are interlocked with the Tax-exempt Foundations and the Federal Reserve... (According to Professor Sutton, Think Tanks, the Federal Reserve, the Executive Branch of the White House. Law. Education, and Media are all interlocked at the top, and controlled by an elite cabal.)

p8
Robert Gaylon Ross author of 'Who's Who of the Elite'

[The international ruling elite] decide when wars should start, how long they should last, when they should end, who will and will not participate, the changes in boundaries of countries resulting from the outcome of these wars, who will lend the money to support the war efforts, and who will lend the money to rebuild the countries after they have been destroyed by war.

They own the central banks such as the Federal Reserve System in the US, and similar organizations in all major countries throughout the world, and therefore are in a position to determine discount rates, prime rates ... [and] what countries should receive loans (guaranteed by the taxpayers of the respective countries).

They decide who will be allowed to run for the offices of President, Prime Minister, Chancellor, Governor General, or other names applied to the leaders of all major countries around the world. [They] directly or indirectly own all the major news media, and can therefore tell the public exactly what they want them to hear, and deny the public information they do not want them to see, hear, or read.

p8
Antony Sutton and Patrick Wood in their book 'Trilaterals Over Washington'

Censorship stems from the overall need for secrecy, to conceal from the world at large. As long as Trilaterals (and Bilderbergers and other elite groups) skulk around the world convening closed meetings in secluded corners with security guards to keep out the press then we may conclude that Trilaterals, Bilderbergers, and the rest have something to hide.

p8
Robert Gaylon Ross author of 'Who's Who of the Elite'

[Most members of these elite organizations] are aware of only about 50%, or less of the goals, and objectives of the Global Union movement. A large number of these people are members for ego, and social reasons only [and would resign if they were to] find out what the Global Union is 'really' up to.

p9
professor Texe Marrs

If the top leadership of government and business is controlled ... then the activities of subservient agencies and divisions must be of little consequence. Government bureaucrats - honest and well-intentioned workers for the most part - simply follow orders and policies set by superiors.

p9
Gary Allen in his book 'None Dare Call It Conspiracy'

[The international ruling elite have] established some very special and highly influential organizations, many of which have clandestine aims and goals ... the Bilderbergers, the Club of Rome, the Aspen Institute, the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations, [and] the Bohemian Grove.

p9
Robert Gaylon Ross author of 'Who's Who of the Elite'

The Elite control our courts, the Pentagon, the U.N., NATO, N.S.A., C.I.A., F.B.I., B.A.T.F., our Senate and House of Representatives,

p10
professor Texe Marrs

The Rockefellers, Rothschilds, and a few others - numbering less than a dozen leaders of international finance are the real power behind the visible thrones of world government. No major policy is formulated without their input; no major plan of action is implemented without their specific 'go' signal.

p11
The Trilateral Commission was founded in 1973 by David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski. It has headquarters in New York, Paris, and Tokyo. It is said to be funded by the tax-exempt giants like Ford, Lilly Endowment, Rockefeller Brothers Fund, the German Marshall Fund, and corporations such as Time, Bechtel, Exxon, General Motors, Wells-Fargo, etc.

Its membership is composed of past and present presidents, ambassadors, secretaries of state, Wall Street investors, NATO and pentagon military personnel, international bankers, foundation executives, media owners, university presidents and professors, senators and congressmen, and wealthy industrialists and entrepreneurs.

p11
James Perloff in his book 'The Shadows of Power'

The Trilateral Commission was formally established in (1973) and consisted of leaders in business, banking, government, and mass media from North America, Western Europe, and Japan. David Rockefeller was founding chairman and [Zbigniew] Brzezinski founding director of the North American branch, most of whose members were also in the CFR {Council on Foreign Relations].

p12
Professor Antony Sutton and Patrick M. Wood, from their book 'Trilaterals Over Washington'

[Jimmy Carter had chosen his cabinet before he was inaugurated in January 1977]. Three of his cabinet members - [Cyrus] Vance, Michael] Blumenthal, and [Harold] Brown - were Trilateral Commissioners... In addition, Carter had appointed another fourteen Trilateral Commissioners to top government posts . ... These presidential appointees represented almost one-third of the Trilateral Commission members from the United States.

p13
Washington Post, January 16, 1977

Trilateralists are ... members of a private, though not secret, international organization put together by the wealthy banker, David Rockefeller, to stimulate the establishment dialog between Western Europe, Japan and the United States. But here is the unsettling thing about the Trilateral Commission. The President-elect [Carter] is a member. So is the Vice-President-elect Walter F. Mondale. So are the new Secretaries of State, Defense and Treasury. So is Zbigniew Brzezinski, who is a former Trilateral Director and Carter's National Security Adviser, also a bunch of others who will make foreign policy for America in the next four years.

... At last count, 13 Trilateralists had gone into top positions in the administration, not to mention six other Trilateralists who are established as policy advisers, some of whom may also get jobs. This is extraordinary when you consider that the Trilateral Commission only has about 65 American members.

p13
author James Perloff

The new President [Carter] appointed more than seventy men from the CFR, and over twenty members of the much smaller Trilateral Commission. Moreover, all the key foreign policy decision makers of the Carter Administration had previously served in the Trilateral Commission... [Zbigniew Brzezinski] became National Security Adviser, the same position Kissinger had held.

p13
Professor Antony Sutton and Patrick M. Wood, from their book 'Trilaterals Over Washington',

In September 1974 [Zbigniew ] Brzezinski was asked in an interview by the Brazilian newspaper Vega, 'How would you define this new world order?" Brzezinski answered, "We need to change the international system for a global system in which new, active and creative forces-recently developed-should be integrated. This system needs to include Japan, Brazil, the oil producing countries, and even the USSR..." When asked if Congress would have an expanded or diminished role in the new system, Brzezinski declared, "The reality of our times is that a modern society such as the U.S. needs a central coordinating and renovating organ which cannot be made up of six hundred people."

p13
[Zbigniew ] Brzezinski in an interview by the Brazilian newspaper Vega, September 1974

We need to change the international system for a global system in which new, active and creative forces - recently developed - should be integrated. This system needs to include Japan, Brazil, the oil producing countries, and even the USSR.

p13
[Zbigniew ] Brzezinski in an interview by the Brazilian newspaper Vega, September 1974

The reality of our times is that a modern society such as the U.S. needs a central coordinating and renovating organ which cannot be made up of six hundred people [U.S. Congress].

p14
Professor Antony Sutton and Patrick M. Wood, in their book 'Trilaterals Over Washington', quoting from Zbigniew Brzezinski's book 'Between Two Ages'

[Brzezinski described Marxism as] a further vital and creative stage in the maturing of man's universal vision... Tension is unavoidable as man strives to assimilate the new into the framework of the old. But at some point the old framework becomes overloaded. The new input can no longer be redefined into traditional forms, and eventually it asserts itself with compelling force.

p14
According to Sutton and Wood, when Brzezinski uses the word "framework" he apparently means the U.S. Constitution; if this is so, then what he told us in 1971 is that the Trilateral Commission plans to make drastic changes to the U.S. Constitution. "One of the most important 'frameworks' in the world ... is the United States Constitution," exclaimed Sutton and Wood. So why is it so important to these elite organizations that the Constitution be changed.

p14
The Trilateral Commission admitted in their own publications that they intend to merge the U.S. and other NATO countries into a single world government controlled by the big corporations.

p14
Zbigniew Brzezinski'

International banks and multinational corporations are acting and planning in terms that are far in advance of the political concepts of the nation-state.

p16
Antony Sutton and Patrick M. Wood, in their book 'Trilaterals Over Washington'

Those ideals which led to the heinous abuses of Hitler, Lenin, Stalin, and Mussolini are now being accepted as necessary inevitabilities by our elected and appointed leaders [New World Order].

p15
Benito Mussolini

Fascism should more appropriately be called corporatism because it' is a merger of state and corporate power.

p15
Senator Barry Goldwater in his book 'With No Apologies'

[The Trilateral Commission is a] skillful, coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four centers of power-political, monetary, intellectual, and ecclesiastical [religious]. All this is to be done in the interest of creating a more peaceful, more productive world.

p15
Trilateral Commission Task Force report 'The Crisis of Democracy'

The democratic political system no longer has any purpose. The concepts of equality and individualism give problems to authority. The media is not sufficiently subservient to the elite. Democracy has to be "balanced" ie., restricted. The authority and power of the central government must be increase.

p15
Antony Sutton and Patrick M. Wood, in their book 'Trilaterals Over Washington'

Trilateralism is the current operational vehicle for a corporate socialist takeover.

p15
Senator Barry Goldwater in his book 'With No Apologies'

[The Trilateral Commission is an] international cabal [which] is intended to be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the United States.

p16
Greek newspaper Exormisis, July 23,1976

A new kind of fascism merges with Carter. The oppression will not have the form we used to know, but it will be the 'depoliticization' of all citizens in the U.S., and the generating of all power in the executive branch, that is, the Presidency, without the President giving any account to the Congress or anybody else except the multinationals [Banks/Corporations], which have financed Carter's campaign

p16
The Trilateral Commission presents itself as a humanitarian group, which seeks to promote world peace through understanding and cooperation. However, its publications indicate that it plans to install a worldwide dictatorship, which will be dominated by the multinational corporations.

p17
Like its counterpart The Trilateral Commission, the CFR [Council on Foreign Relations] is composed of Wall Street investors, international bankers, foundation executives, members of Think Tanks and Tax-exempt Foundations, ambassadors, past and present presidents, secretaries of state, lobbyist lawyers, media owners, university presidents and ' professors, federal and supreme court judges, and members of military leaders from NATO and the pentagon.

It was formally established in New York, on July 29, 1921, as a counterpart to a British group called, The Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA).

p17
James Perloff in his book 'The Shadows of Power'

The CFR [Council on Foreign Relations {New York) and RITA [The Royal Institute of International Affairs (London)] were originally intended to be affiliates, but became independent bodies, although they have always maintained close informal ties.

p17
The CFR puts out a publication known as Foreign Affairs which has been called "the most influential periodical in print" by Time magazine.

... It was originally dominated by J.P. Morgan interests, and began to gain momentum around 1927 with funding from the Rockefeller and Carnegie Foundations.

p17
Texe Marrs in his book 'Rule by Secrecy'

Funding for the CFR came from bankers and financiers such as Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, Bernard Baruch, Jacob Schiff, Otto Kahn, and Paul Warburg. Today, funding for the CFR comes from major corporations such as Xerox, General Motors, Bristol-Meyers Squibb, Texaco, and others as well as the German Marshall Fund, McKnight Foundation, Dillon Fund, Ford Foundation, Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Starr Foundation, and the Pew Charitable Trust.

p18
Antony Sutton

[The CFR is] superficially an innocent forum for academics, businessmen, and politicians, [which] contains within its shell, perhaps unknown to many of its members, a power center that unilaterally determines U.S. foreign policy... their true "subversive" objective is "the acquisition of markets and economic power ... for a small group of giant multinationals under the virtual control of a few banking investment houses and controlling families.

p18
former FBI Agent Dan Smoot in his book 'The Invisible Government'

The leadership of the invisible government doubtless rests in the hands of a sinister ... few... Many, if not most, of these are status-seekers... The ultimate aim [of the CFR] however, well-intentioned its prominent and powerful members may be [is] to create a one-world socialist system.

p18
James Perloff in his book 'The Shadows of Power'

A number of individuals are apparently invited into the CFR simply because they have a distinguished name or other enhancing qualities... [they] join without endorsing or even knowing Councils habitual viewpoint.

p19
author Gary Allen

During its first fifty years of existence, the CFR was almost never mentioned by any of the moguls of the mass media. When you realize that the membership of the CFR includes top executives from the New York Times, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, the Knight Newspaper chain, NBC, CBS, Time, Life, Fortune, Business Week, US News and World Report, and many others, you can be sure that such anonymity is not accidental.

p19
Admiral Chester Ward, former Judge Advocate General of the U.S. Navy, formerly a member of the CFR for about 20 years and co-author of a book entitled 'Kissinger on the Couch'

Once the ruling members of the CFR have decided that the U.S. Government should adopt a particular policy, the very substantial research facilities of the CFR are put to work to develop arguments, intellectual and emotional, to support the new policy, and to confound and discredit, intellectually and politically, any opposition.

p19
Admiral Chester Ward, former Judge Advocate General of the U.S. Navy, formerly a member of the CFR for about 20 years and co-author of a book entitled 'Kissinger on the Couch'

[The goal of the CFR is the] submergence of US sovereignty and national independence into an all-powerful one-world government.

p19
former CFR President Winston Lord

The Trilateral Commission doesn't secretly run the world. The Council on Foreign Relations does that.

p19
Rene Wormser in his book 'Foundations'

The Council on Foreign Relations [is] virtually an agency of the government, [It is] financed both by the Rockefeller and Carnegie foundations, [and it] propagandizes the globalist concept.

p20
columnist Joseph Kraft in an article 'School for Statesmen', Harpers magazine, July 1958

[The CFR (Council on Foreign Relations)] has been the seat of some basic government decisions, has set the context for many more, repeatedly served as a recruiting ground for ranking officials.

p20
author Gary Allen

The policies promoted by the C.F.R. (Council on Foreign Relations) in the fields of defense and international relations become, with regularity which defies the laws of chance, the official policies of the United States Government.

p20
author Gary Allen

The C.F.R (Council on Foreign Relations) remains active in working toward its final goal of a government over all of the world - a government which the insiders and their allies will control. The goal of the C.F.R. is simply to abolish the United States with its constitutional guarantees of liberty. And they don't even try to hide it.

p20
Study No.7, published by the CFR on November 25, 1959, advocates

... building a new international order [which] must be responsive to world aspirations for peace, [and] for social and economic change. This new order will include, "states labeling themselves as Socialist' [Communist].

p20
former FBI Agent Dan Smoot in his book 'The Invisible Government'

The Council on Foreign Relations, together with a great number of other associated tax-exempt organizations, constitutes the invisible government which sets the major policies of the federal government.

... [The CFR] exercises controlling influence of government officials who implement the policies; and, through massive and skillful propaganda, influences Congress and the public to support the policies.

... The objective of this invisible government is to convert America into a socialist state and then make it a unit in a one-world socialist system.

p21
CFR [Council on Foreign Relations] member James Warburg, testifying at Senate Foreign Relations Committee on February 17, 1950

We shall have world government whether or not you like it - by conquest or consent.

p21
author James Perloff

The CFR [Council on Foreign Relations] advocates the creation of a world government... Anyone who cares to examine back issues of Foreign Affairs [the magazine of the CFR] will have no difficulty finding hundreds of articles that pushed ... [the] concept of globalism.

... For decades, the CFR pushed this ascending approach to world government, with Foreign Affairs carrying such titles as Toward European Integration: Beginnings in Agriculture, Toward Unity in Africa, Toward a Caribbean Federation, and so on.

p21
author James Perloff quoting a 1974 Foreign Affairs magazine article

The house of world order will have to be built from the bottom up rather than from the top down ... an end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece, will accomplish much more than the old-fashioned frontal assault.

p21
author James Perloff

Today, probably not one American in five hundred can identify the CFR [Council on Foreign Relations], despite the fact that it is arguably the most powerful political entity in the United States.

p21
author Gary Allen

It is doubtful that one American in a thousand so much as ) recognizes the Council's name, or that one in ten thousand can relate , anything at all about its structure or purpose.

p21
The CFR is a supragovermnental organization that overshadows congress. It is financed by the Tax-exempt Foundations, and portrays itself as a humanitarian group. But its objectives are to erode national sovereignty and merge America into a worldwide government under the control of its members, which include people of tremendous wealth. Basically, their goal is global fascism. The CFR is responsible for f setting major policy, which is activated without public knowledge or consent. It is beyond congressional investigation.

p23
The Bilderbergers are an international group composed of European Royalty, Wall Street investors, politicians, international bankers, ( prominent businessmen, media executives, and military leaders from around the planet.

p23
Texe Marrs

The Bilderbergers are a group of powerful men and woman - many of them European royalty - who meet in secret each year to discuss the issues of the day.

p23
journalist James P. Tucker in his book 'The Bilderberg Diary

The Bilderberg group is an organization of political leaders and international financers that meets secretly every spring to make global policy. There are about 110 regulars [including] Rockefellers, Rothschilds, bankers, heads of international corporations and high government officials from Europe and North America.

p24
The Bilderbergers have close ties to Europe's nobility such as the British royal family, as well as royalty from Holland, Sweden and Spain. They also contain the same representatives in finance and industry ... There is also a heavy cross-membership with the Trilateral Commission and the Council on Foreign Relations.

p24
Gaylon Ross

Every single [person] named as past and present members of the Bilderberger Steering Committee is or was a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

p24
The Bilderbergers are said to be the organization that sets global policy which is then passed on to the CFR [Council on Foreign Relations] and TC [Trilateral Commission] to implement.

p24
While the Trilateral Commission and the Council on Foreign Relations both publish their membership rolls, the Bilderbergers keep the meetings, goals, and membership lists secret.

p24
Gaylon Ross

... When [Bilderbergers] meet, they clear out all the guests, and employees in the building in which they are to meet. They completely de-bug all the rooms, bring in their own cooks, waiters, housekeepers, heavily armed security guards, etc. and do not allow 'outsiders' anywhere near the meeting place just before, during and immediately after they meet.

p25
Jim Tucker 'The Bilderberg Diary'

Bilderberg has, at one time or another, had representatives of all major U.S. newspapers and network news outlets attend. They do so on their promise to report nothing. This is how Bilderberg keeps its news blackout virtually complete in the United States.

p27
Texe Marrs

In 1991, then Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton was honored as a Bilderberg guest. The next year he ran for and won the presidency of United States.

p28
[Jim] Tucker

Most presidents have been members of least one of these two groups [Bilderberg or Trilateral Commission], and all have had representatives attend Bilderberg meetings to receive their orders.

p28
Gary Allen

While the 'new world order' is being built, the Bilderbergers coordinate the efforts of the European and American power elites..

p28
A single currency is said to be in the planning for the entire Western Hemisphere by the Bilderbergers, which will eventually be followed by a world currency.

p28
The objective of the Bilderberg Group appears to be the same as its interlocking Think Tanks, which is a one-world dictatorship.

p28
Jim Tucker

Leaders of the Bilderberg [Group] and its brother group, the Trilateral Commission ... together make up the world shadow government.

p28
Jim Tucker

[What the Bilderbergers intend is] a global army at the disposal of the United Nations... It has been a long standing goal of Bilderberg for the UN to become the world government to which all nations will be subservient.

p28
Texe Marrs

The goal of the Bilderbergers is to create a pretense [fake] democratic World Government, controlled by them.

p29
Texe Marrs

The Bilderbergers are philosophically neither Republican nor Democrat. Their only 'party' is filthy lucre... ... Money, in turn, brings them power, and these folks have a never-satisfied appetite for raw power.

p29
Jim Tucker

[Mikhail] Gorbachev's speeches could have been dictated by Kissinger after being drafted by Rockefeller ... as far as content was concerned. Gorbachev held out the Bilderberg-Trilateral vision of a UN army force that could invade once-sovereign nations to enforce 'human rights.

p29
[Mikhail] Gorbachev told the Chicago CFR [Council on Foreign Relations] on May 8, 1991

The New World Order means a new kind of civilization.

p29
The first American woman to attend a Bilderberg meeting was Hilary Clinton in 1997.

p29
Presidents and prime ministers are selected by the Bilderbergers and controlled like puppets.

p29
Bilderberg meetings are guarded by the military, SWAT teams, local police and private security firms. Like the CFR, their policy is passed without public approval. Their goal is to create a world government under their control, which will have the illusion of freedom.

p29
Despite attending Bilderberg meetings, mainstream media owners have reported little on this group for over fifty years.

p31
James Perloff

Essential to controlling a government is the establishment of central bank with a monopoly on the country's supply of money and credit.

p31
James Perloff

No turn of events is more lucrative for an international banker than war - because nothing generates more government borrowing faster.

p31
President James Garfield July 2, 1881

Whoever controls the volume of money in our country is absolute master of all industry, and commerce and when you realize that the system is very easily controlled, one way or another, by a few powerful men at the top, you will not have to be told how periods of inflation, and depression originate.

p34
Senator Barry Goldwater

The accounts of the Federal Reserve System have never been audited. It operates outside of the control of Congress and through its Board of Governors manipulates the credit of the United States.

p35
Congressman Louis McFadden, June 10, 1932

When the Federal Reserve Act was passed, the people of these United States did not perceive that a world banking system was being set up here. A super-state controlled by international bankers and international industrialists acting together to enslave the world for their own pleasure. Every effort has been made by the Fed to conceal its powers but the truth is-the Fed has usurped the government.

p35
James Perloff

If the key to controlling a nation is to run its central bank, one can imagine the potential of a global central bank, able to dictate the world's credit and money supply. The roots for such a system were planted when the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank were formed at the Bretton Woods Conference of 1944. These UN agencies were both CFR [Council on Foreign Relations] creations.

p37
James Perloff

One of the leading devices by which the wealthy dodge taxes is the channeling of their fortunes into tax-free foundations. The major foundations, though commonly regarded as charitable institutions, often use their grant-making powers to advance the interests of their founders.

p42
James Perloff

The . Rockefeller Foundation has poured millions into the Council on Foreign Relations, which in turn serves as the establishment's main bridge of influence to the U.S. government.

p42
Dan Smoot

Foundations do finance the vast, complex, and powerful interlock of organizations devoted to a socialist one-world system.

p43
The true purpose of some [tax-exempt] foundations which are used by the financial elite, is to bankroll the installation of a one-world socialist dictatorship, and tax avoidance.

p45
Alan B Jones in his book 'How the World Really Works'

The elites who wish to set up their world dictatorship recognize their main enemy to be the great middle class of the United States, which, being made up of individuals who have acquired a little education, property, and independence, will fight strenuously to keep them.

The strategy of the elites is to squeeze the middle class to death by creating or exacerbating the major problems facing the society, including class warfare, crime, education, moral decay, etc., and then creating in response spurious governmental programs to "cure" the problems that they just created.

p45
Abraham Lincoln

I have two great enemies, the Southern Army in front of me and the Bankers in the rear. Of the two, the one at my rear is my greatest foe.
