Super rich hedge fund managers are buying 'secret boltholes' where they can hideout in the event of civil uprising against growing inequality, it has been claimed.
Nervous financiers from across the globe have begun purchasing landing strips, homes and land in areas such as New Zealand so they can flee should people rise up.
With growing inequality and riots such as those in London in 2011 and in Ferguson and other parts of the USA last year, many financial leaders fear they could become targets for public fury.
Robert Johnson, president of the Institute of New Economic Thinking, told people at the World Economic Forum in Davos that many hedge fund managers were already planning their escapes.
He said: “I know hedge fund managers all over the world who are buying airstrips and farms in places like New Zealand because they think they need a getaway."

He said: "People need to know there are possibilities for their children – that they will have the same opportunity as anyone else.
"There is a wicked feedback loop. Politicians who get more money tend to use it to get more even money."
He added: "I think the rich are worried and they should be worried. I mean inequality, why does it matter?
"Most people have heard the Oxfam statistics that now we’ve got 80, the 80 richest people in the world, having more wealth that the bottom three-point-five billion, and very soon we’ll get a situation where that one percent, one percent of the richest people have more wealth than everybody else, the 99."

I wonder if many of these suicides involving executives who are involve in the banking industry has a lot to do with this. Do they know something is coming down the pike?
My advice for the average Joe, is to get as far away from the urban areas of the major cities as you can and prepare to survive in a rural setting. It ain’t going to be pretty living in an urban setting when the SHTF and anarchy rules. No gun free zones will be honoured, only the strongest will survive, the rest will die off. Starvation, disease, and fear will force most of the survivors to flee from the urban areas.
And flee they will into the surrounding areas and country side where you live looking to loot and kill and anything else they deem justifiable to their survival. Many of us living in these areas will be armed and waiting. In many cases, we will be outnumbered by bands of these people. It ain’t going to be pretty and no quarter will be given by either side. We will have to defend our lives and families while trying to keep the invaders from overrunning our “fortress”.
In the complete breakdown to follow, there will be no 911, Internet, electricity, or commerce as we have known it. Prepare to be isolated and live without them. Prepare to live off the land. Prepare to survive on a day-to-day basis. Prepare for a tough existence and a hard life.
At some point the Anti-Christ and his spirits will announce to world his sovereignty. People can then come out of the wilderness assured of world peace and the bountiful (food, medicine, or whatever need) fruits of the world will supplied freely to all who worship him.
The Anti-Christ will give them a “wallet” full of digital ( bitcoins?) money (no central banks needed) contained in an embedded computer/chip in their right hand or forehead that they can use to buy and sell goods within his kingdom. All personal wealth and transactions conducted between individuals and companies (no middleman banks and bankers needed) will be transferred directly between wallets. As long as they live and breathe, the compute/chip will contain all known bits of information about them since they were born - everything from cradle to grave. The Anti-Christ will supply their every need as he sees fit (no lawyers needed either) and in return they will worship him as their god.
If they refuse, then .... you know the rest. They will have to choose between the true G_D and the Anti-Christ. I hope we choose wisely.
These are my beliefs and opinions only. Your mileage may vary.
Correct! It doesn’t add up. Those peeps hired to protect this protected class, may be the very ones who terminate these scum.
“at the well-secured ranch.”
Comments like that are humorous.
New Zealand’s firearms laws are nowhere near those of Australia. They are regulated, but you can own darn near anything with the proper licenses.
Look on Youtube under “kiwitedferny” and see his collection. Enough to make anyone over here drool.
Not really. You’d have to be able to find it first.
And also be prepared for surprises
perfect.
If you think your going to defend a position your the one in for a surprise. Kinda hard to hide a ranch unless your just talking about a few acres.

This is why they are going full court press to take the guns from the proles.
Ha. You assumed a lot.
What would be simpler is if our rich simply re-invested in American manufacturing, bring it back from China.
Just saying. It really is that simple.
