The concept of George Orwell 1984 Big Brother book has been here for some time, but since our Big Brother does not show us the same kind of controls that is why we have hard time to recognize him!
This is part one of a three part article.
Only by careful observations of the events you may recognize his existence. Let me give some examples then you know what I mean. When WWII started on September 1939 American economy was almost had come back to the state of normalcy; recovering from sever Depression of 1928. President Roosevelt had started massive public projects to revive the economy. During WWII US productivity soared. While millions of best American work forces were over seas fighting the war, even with that handicap, Americans at home left the legacy that US was truly the Arsenal of the Democracy. This period rightfully is called the greatest generation of Americans. That is true, since they fought heroically and they set amazing records in production for war material and consumers goods. And after the war American Economy kept humming and it helped to revive the economy of many ruined countries. This gave rise to the myth that "War Helps US Economy!" But war does not produce wealth, it destroys wealth. Of course few businesses benefited during the war since there were strong demands for their services. But US Government paid for most of those services.
In any era war has destroyed the wealth of nations, unless it has replenished it with looting of the defeated countries. In eighteen century because of war with England France treasury was depleted, and that gave rise to French Revolution. France lost her livelihood in Vietnam and in Algeria. England lost so much of her assets in US independent war. Falkland war was so costly for England. Many African countries were ruined because of wars. But how come US economy benefited so much because of WWII?
Where did US get her money to do all those productions during WWII? The course "Economy USA" on PBS answers that puzzle this way; for war efforts US Government spent money to produce goods then that infusion of money revived the private sector, then private sectors paid more taxes and so on. The course does point out that during the war the whole chart of US Economy shifted upward, and the course gives some nonsense explanation for this Mysterious Behavior. If that explanation is correct then US government should keep doing the same trick whenever her economy slows down! By spending on public projects it should help the economy to prosper and everybody would benefit from high economy activities! Then cutting public projects should be considered harmful for US economy!
At present time US economy even with much greater productivity (Because of automation and hi-tech processing) fails to pay her own bills, and US work force are working as hard as any time. Some people would argue that "War on Terror" has caused the budget deficit. But we were told that "War Helps US Economy!" During WWII there was no creditor outside of the United States to pay for HUGE US Government spending. As you see clearly something does not make any sense. During WWII that HUGE, I mean UNBELIEVABLY HUGE, infusion of money into US economy was coming from somewhere. US government was the Major Buyer of the American productions to supply all theaters of the War. The American Public alone could have not produced that kind of money to pay for all those goods. Just remember American Public was recovering from a Nasty Depression. Who had the deep pocket to provide for the War efforts?
I wonder how in Depression 1928 money was so mysteriously disappeared from US Economy, and how it appeared so Generously during the War time. The magician plays his magic right in front of us and we have no clue how he does it! You see ample evidence of similar magic in the Stock Market everyday. In these days when we do have accurate data about most of the operations of the companies nobody can give a PLAUSIBLE argument why any stock price behaves the way they do. The most SUCCESSFUL FINANCIAL ANALYST may have 75% success rate selecting stocks, this is like the doctors diagnose their patients with 75% accuracy!
In 1901 John D. Rockefeller Jr. married Abby Greene Alderidge, daughter of Rhode Island Senator; who was a powerful US Senator. One reporter warned: "The chief exploiter of the American people is now closely allied by marriage with the chief Skimmer."
In 1929 John D. Rockefeller built the Grand Riverside Church. Christian fundamentalists were worried that the richest man in the world extending his influences to the religious ground. One preacher put it this way: "When one man can control the financial world, the educational world, and practically the religious world the day of anti Christ is not far behind."
In John D. Rockefeller web site it is mentioned: "1902 an audit showed Rockefeller was worth about $200 million". I think this figure is way too low; knowing how mysterious John D. Rockefeller was operating his business that is normal to hear that his asset according to the PUBLIC RECORD was that little! It was reported that by 1906 Standard Oil had paid $551,992,904 in dividends, and this was just the dividend part. Knowing that John D. Rockefeller had the controlling shares in Standard Oil, you can imagine what would be his asset by then. I saw somewhere at turn of century his asset was $960 million dollar. Knowing he accumulated that huge fortune from SCRATCH in a period of about forty years from the oil industry which its main product was Kerosine for cooking and lighting, then you can imagine what would be their fortune when the oil industry's products has been fueling the industrial engine of the World for over a century. In about fifteen years Bill Gate's fortune rose over $27 billion (Of course this is the figure after the collapse of hi-tech stocks.)from an industry which only deals with just a portion of the population, and that is just occasional sale of softwares, while everybody who has a car buys gas every week! And by the events of 1914 in Ludlow Colorado coal mine we know that Rockefellers' interests was NOT just limited to the oil industry.
Laura Rockefeller, John D. Rockefeller Junior's mother, advised her son: "You are the son of the king of the kings. So you will never do the things that dishonor your father or to be disloyal to the king."
