**************************** 

Those who have already read Bankrupting the Third World, our sixth book in The Underground Knowledge Series, will have picked up on the fact we believe world poverty can be fixed – and fixed quickly.

Just one of many starving children in war-torn Syria right now.

 

Here’s an excerpt from the book, which, hopefully, clarifies why we are so confident there is a quick fix for world poverty:

Some of you may be doubting our sanity about now. At the very least, you’ll be thinking we are underestimating the task at hand, and that poverty’s far too big a challenge to solve any time soon.

But consider this for a moment: the United Nations Development Program estimated in 1998 that it would only cost an additional US$40 billion above current aid payments at the time to completely eradicate poverty as we know it. This figure was broken down as per the following necessary (US dollar) payments: $13 billion extra for every person on Earth to have enough food as well as access to basic health care; an additional $12 billion to cover reproductive health for all women worldwide; $6 billion extra to provide basic education for all; and an additional $9 billion to provide clean water and sanitation for every man, woman and child on the planet.

Now that $40 billion figure was in 1998 dollars, of course, and the world’s biggest problems have arguably gotten worse since then. So let’s allow for inflation and let’s also assume the UN underestimated the amount required.

Let’s say $200 billion dollars, or five times what the UN estimated, is needed over and above current aid payments. To our eyes, that seems a small price to pay for what would undoubtedly be the greatest moment in human history.

Two hundred billion is also a fraction of the cost governments of major nations like China, the US, Russia and the UK each spend on their annual military budgets. By some estimates, the Afghanistan conflict alone has cost America more than a trillion dollars, with all wars since 9/11 said to have cost America several trillion dollars.

Unfortunately, waging wars is clearly a far bigger priority than ending poverty.

“About 21,000 people die every day of hunger or hunger-related causes, according to the United Nations. This is one person every four seconds … Sadly, it is children who die most often. Yet there is plenty of food in the world for everyone. The problem is that hungry people are trapped in severe poverty. They lack the money to buy enough food to nourish themselves. Being constantly malnourished, they become weaker and often sick. This makes them increasingly less able to work, which then makes them even poorer and hungrier. This downward spiral often continues until death for them and their families.” –Official statement on the poverty.com website as at February 2014

Do you believe the deaths at Jonestown were the result of suicides as per the official story or mass murder? That’s the question we put to members of the Underground Knowledge discussion group in our latest (continuing) poll on Goodreads.com

 

Bodies at Jonestown…mass murder or suicide?

 

Jonestown, of course, is the name synonymous with the mass deaths of the infamous (mainly American) Peoples Temple cult members in the jungles of Guyana. Since that dreadful event, in November, 1978, there has been considerable speculation on whether the deaths were suicide, as per the official story, or mass murder.

If ‘Undergrounders’ (group members) are correct, most believe it was mass murder. One compelling argument proffered to support this view is that many of the dead were children – and, of course, children don’t normally commit suicide, do they?

Interim poll results are:

63% believe the deaths were mass murder.

22% believe they were suicides.

15% are unsure.

 

A random selection of poll respondents’ comments follows:

Mass murder, because children don’t “choose” suicide. Men with guns stood around until everyone had drunk the poisoned cool aide. Then they either drank it, or ran away. But those few men, who held the rifles were both murderers and the only few who actually committed suicide.   

No way this is a conspiracy. Jones and his followers killed a US Congressman, panicked and drank Kool-Aid. End of story.

I would say…Mass Murder – MK Ultra Mind Control

How do we know that they were shot except for verbal statements? 

The Guyanese army, whose soldiers were among the first on the scene, reported only 408 Temple members had died by their own hand. Then the New York Times reported the actual number was around 500. US Military personnel arrived several days later and the body count quickly rose – from 700 to a final tally of 909. No official explanation was ever given for these differing body counts although one US official was quoted as saying, “Guyanese cannot count.”

 …it’s madness! So much death and many things that don’t make sense. It’s either religious fanatics/cult or a corrupt government to blame and we know which explanation we’d rather go with. I vote unsure on this.  

This is a hard one to decide on there are so many sides to what the truth is and everyone has a different story to tell.   

Neil Sanders does a pretty good job at listing all the anomalies in the official story, as well as all the CIA involvement in the cult before the deaths, in this video here: https://www.goodreads.com/videos/9605…

In the foreword to UNDERGROUND BASES: Subterranean Military Facilities and the Cities Beneath Our Feet, film actor-producer-director Jerry Griffin finds common ground between our new release book and his new release feature film ‘The Lake Drain.’

 

http://www.amazon.com/UNDERGROUND-BASES-Subterranean-Facilities-Underground-ebook/dp/B0184KA4KS/

 

Jerry Griffin’s foreword to Underground Bases  follows:

“There’s something going on. You just can’t see it all,” says Mr. Woodward somewhere right now in the closing lines of The Lake Drain science fiction film. It streams above ground online.

If the Holly Wood (used to make a magician’s wand) feature film All the President’s Men was about the reality of worldwide governmental deep underground construction then the famous line would read, “Follow the concrete” instead of “Follow the money.” The source in the film (and novel) was, of course, “Deep Throat,” a deep undercover (alleged) contact.

Follow the worldwide concrete production reports over the last decades (focus on the mid-90’s.) You most likely will not find evidence where that tremendous production volume was mixed with water and can now be located in governmental structures. You may see obvious evidence using a “satellite” mapping system available on the computers we are allowed to have. This would be the entrances to what James & Lance Morcan have detailed so nicely before you now (see Chapter 4, “Lockheed Martin” entrance photo).

Ever look at something and not know what you were looking at? Later, did you realize what you saw and only then you discovered…you did not know what you were looking at?

Welcome aboard. You will see from the authors’ work here that underground activity has occurred way before you were born. (For intelligent questions here about being born you might look into the authors’ GENIUS INTELLIGENCE: Secret Techniques and Technologies to Increase IQ, book one in The Underground Knowledge Series.) Links to all their works are at the end of this publication. You may come across why you are smart.

So, if we are smart and also not readily aware that underground life is an ancient reality then our “text” books must be front-loaded. Someone consistently keeps overwhelming evidence from our immediate reach.

Ancient cities exist below our feet right now. Maybe way down and a little to the left depending on where you are standing or sitting.

Right now you are reading and if you were to get up and travel quite a distance, possibly, you would find the archaeological existence of great machined caverns below your feet. This means machinery of a higher technology than you might be used to up here on the surface while sitting and reading. Look up, “Subterrene Machine.” You will have a blast.

Some ancient cities underground, too, were machined and one need look no further here on the surface for remaining archaeological evidence than cut stones around the Giza pyramid complex in Egypt (Khemet.) There also exists right now megalithic rock structures cut to laser-like precision (in South America for example) and massive underwater monuments and cities discovered in various parts of the world. (Example – see: Foerster, Brien, Lost Ancient Technology of Peru and Bolivia).

Quite possibly Lance Morcan’s upcoming work titled NEW ZEALAND, an epic adventure novel covering 500 years of South Pacific and Polynesian history, will also uncover evidence. Megalithic construction and underground living facilities must also pepper Polynesian life. (Ever see a picture of one of the Easter Island “heads” excavated below ground to show huge standing figures?).

Mr. Woodward in my film mentioned at top is a journalist hounded by black ops machinery only to find there is no end to the layers involved in going down the “rabbit hole” or “the lake drain.”

There is something behind it all and even those inside cannot see or know it all.

You might consult the Morcans’ Underground Knowledge Series I-V to be awakened to the reality that you have been offered – a programming which skims the surface.

The great thing about running into researchers away from corporate (mental) news (programming) is when your research intersects through an ongoing process of elimination. There is always something to reassess. (Just search a moment for “Anatoly Fomenko” and you may understand to what I refer).

We are programmed by those controllers who have already been in this area of deprogramming research. See Chapter 11 here for evidence programmed right before your eyes in the Denver Airport Murals.

This is where the words “Satanic” and “Masonic” must, at least, be mentioned for an overarching perspective on who is involved in “programming.” A pentagram is a pentagram is a star. A rose represents Rosicrucian and robed Jesuits wear black for Saturn and red and white for Santa, er, Satan.

So, they are already over here in this area of underground bases and tunnels research. Here (Chapters 8 & 9) is this place you will discover in the material below called Dulce. The word means “sweet” in Spanish.

“Alleged” is mentioned here as he also does in my film interviews with Richard Sauder, Ph.D., an internationally noted and referenced author on the subject. The military regularly references his blog.

He says from personal conversation with the major parties concerned in Chapters 8 & 9 that “Dulce is sweet disinformation”. (‘Richard Sauder, Ph.D. Atop A Nuclear Silo on Deprogrammed Radio HD’, approx. 1:20:00 sec.- and can be found online on Youtube. He also addresses WHY the elites would build these warrens). Much of the Alternative Media promotes and refers to Dulce Deep Underground Military Base as a fact and there exists no evidence according to this interviewed author and researcher.

Read on. Go down the warren. The Lake Drain. Come to understand these ‘continuity of government’ projects exist not for you but for those with the knowledge that something will be occurring, causing people to once again retreat underground.

Below, James & Lance Morcan will help you understand what you are looking at.

******************************* 

In our book INTERNATIONAL BANKSTER$: The Global Banking Elite Exposed and the Case for Restructuring Capitalism, we advise readers it has been estimated by that the bulk of the world’s money supply is in the hands of less than 1000 families. Yes, you read that right: the bulk of the world’s money supply is in the hands of less than 1000 families.

 

A Rothschild family photo.

 

Readers are reminded these families include the likes of the Rockefellers, the Rothschilds, the British Royals as well as other elite dynasties. Their fortunes are said to consist of a mixture of Old World money, modern (declared) income, as well as invisible money and blood money.

In a chapter titled ‘The world’s hidden system of finance’ we expand on this. An excerpt follows:

In a similar vein, David Rothkopf’s 2008 book Superclass: The Global Power Elite and the World They Are Making, states that the world is governed by a group of 6000 elite individuals.

And according to Oxfam’s 2014 economic briefing, the wealth of the top 1% in the world amounts to US$110 trillion. That’s 65 times the total wealth of the bottom half of the world’s population.

Another staggering statistic from Oxfam’s briefing was that, collectively, the financial worth of the world’s 85 wealthiest people approximately equals that of the poorer half of the world’s total population. In other words, and get this – the richest 85 individuals have as much wealth as the 3.5 billion or so people who make up 50% of the world’s population and who are categorized as the poorest on the planet!

What if those 85 Rich Listers got together – assuming they or their representatives haven’t already – and agreed on certain financial things?

Things like bailing out private banks facing bankruptcy, lobbying for the amalgamation of various currencies, forcing austerity measures upon vulnerable nations sinking in debt or anything else that fits their definition of a better world?

With their financial clout and inherent power, surely almost anything imaginable would be achievable for the global elite. After all, who would have the power to stop this uber-powerful niche – the .000000001% of the world’s population, who control the bulk of the world’s money supply?

*********************************

The latest poll in our Underground Knowledge discussion group on Goodreads.com  has struck a chord with most respondents indicating they believe a universal income for all citizens would be beneficial.

 

 

We put the following question to group members: Do you believe your country would prosper from having a Universal Income aka “Basic Income” (i.e. a bare minimum wage unconditionally granted to all citizens)?

Interim results show: 57% say YES / 38% say NO / 5% are UNSURE.

 

A random selection of poll respondents’ comments follow:

As someone who believes in Capitalism, I previously would have voted NO on this subject. But having now researched it in depth and seen the success stories of trials done in Canada and EU countries, I can see the merits and therefore voted YES.

I think being able for a country/state/city to provide citizens with basic needs is an excellent idea. ..and who knows. ..it may end up cutting down welfare costs in the long run.    

I would never be in favor of a minimum income if welfare didn’t go away. It’s double dipping. You have income. Ok, need more? You are responsible to go get it. This is separate from charitable efforts if someone is medically challenged. This has always been an aspect of society–to take care of the helpless.

Countries/states/cities that have trialed the basic income idea have found cases of domestic violence, petty crime, drug addiction and ill-health caused by poverty have all dropped by a significant amount.   

Finland is doing it. We’ll have direct evidence of its effects. Beside, Finland analysts have shown how the maneuver will actually SAVE money for the State. At the same time, they will remove a costly bureaucratic apparatus to manage unemployment benefits, requests and their processing, paperwork, and much more.    

To live people need enough money to do so. If you remove all income from people then they have no choice but to turn to crime, to survive. Therefore it is insane not to have a basic income for the lowest of the low but those actually working should earn more as an incentive to do so.    

I can see the value in doing a minimum wage to every American. If we simplified the tax code, we could use it also to substitute for the many tax credits like “earned income” which is essentially a refund for taxes NOT paid. There would be a lot of saving on complexity.

I’ve recently had this discussion on Linked In at the following, albeit with a slightly different op ed introduction to the issue. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/univer…

I voted no because the question did not say anything else would go away, so I had to assume this redistribution of income would be IN ADDITION to programs that already exist. Now, if the question was worded to say it would replace those programs, then I’d have to rethink my answer but it would likely not change because people need to have the support especially among those who are inept.    

These days I tend to think a smart nation should be generous with social welfare and assume that there will be a small element (maybe 5-10%) who “free load”.

 

This poll was inspired by this excerpt of INTERNATIONAL BANKSTER$: The Global Banking Elite Exposed and the Case for Restructuring Capitalism posted in this discussion thread here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/…
