World Economic Forum attacks idea of private property, natural rights
American Thinker ^ | 31 Jul, 2022 | Eric Utter

Posted on 07/31/2022 4:55:36 AM PDT by MtnClimber

The World Economic Forum is pushing for a global transition away from private ownership of vehicles and other "idle equipment" as part of a "clean energy revolution,” itself part of the Great Reset.

SNIP

The first of these is the most important, and surely the most arousing to the likes of Klaus Schwab (son of a former member of several National Socialist (i.e. Nazi) organizations, and his ilk. The report argues that private ownership of vehicles and electronic devices, et. al., is wasteful and inefficient, and that we must “go from owning to using.”

It further notes, "The average car or van in England is driven just 4% of the time,” and adds, “While most already have a personal phone, 39% of workers globally have employer-provided laptops and mobile phones. This is not at all resource efficient." Right. No one should be allowed to own more than one of anything.

Memo to the WEF: one doesn’t live in one’s house, condo or apartment every hour of every day, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t own one…or that it is “resource inefficient.” And how often do we use our toasters? Five minutes a day? That would be about three-tenths of one percent of the time. Our blenders? Washing machines, dryers? Televisions? Most folks don’t use their heat for several months out of the year. The same goes for air-conditioning. I guess we should get rid of all these “idle, wasteful, and inefficient items,” too. Maybe we could call for a toaster, washing machine or T.V.-- if and when we need one.

You should walk down the street Comrade, to the glorious Peoples Toaster. (that is if your social rating is high enough that we give you any bread.)

That’s not a very efficient use of legs.

And Klaus Schwab only takes a breath about half of the time. Just sayin

From national socialism to international socialism. The basic ideology has not changed.

Instead of a master race, there is now a master class. Instead of one nation, they want to rule the world. Otherwise its exactly the same. They even have the same thoughts on eugenics.

World is misinformative. The Forum exists as a European phenomena.

It is neither World nor Global. Not Africa and certainly not the populous Asia of China and India nor Pacifica Indonesia Philippines or Japan

Private property rights are natural rights, and natural rights are God-given. Natural rights imply that there is a God-given natural duty to preserve and protect natural rights. This duty is God-ordained. One can violate natural rights but not take them away

I only use my toothbrush a few times a day totaling a tiny percentage of the day; the rest of the time it sits unused. I guess the subjects in the WEF kingdom shouldn’t be allowed to own their own.

“It further notes, “The average car or van in England is driven just 4% of the time,” and adds, “While most already have a personal phone, 39% of workers globally have employer-provided laptops and mobile phones. This is not at all resource efficient.” Right. No one should be allowed to own more than one of anything.”

Laptop batteries are about 70 Watt-hours. Electric car batteries are 1000 to 2000 times the capacity of laptops (and around 10,000 times the capacity of cell phones).

It’s really stupid to put them in the same discussion and beyond that, there’s no practical way to have sharing of laptops and cell phones.

Like I always say, the WEF is NOT STUPID, for if they were stupid, they would never have been able to indoctrinate virtually every Western leader (other than Putin and Trump), so I’m confused as to why they even bring up laptops and phones, other than to distract from their REAL GOAL of ending private car ownership.

...but, perhaps, laptops and phones are negotiation throwaways. They propose elimination of private ownership of all 3 (laptops, phones, and cars), we fight back, and then we all ‘compromise’ on just cars...and we walk away ‘happy’, saying “that was a close call”.

There was an episode of Black Mirror where everyone got up every day and pedaled an exercise bike for hours while watching TV. Their bedroom wall was also a TV screen. Then there was an audition for people to be on TV. Once you had your own show, you got a room with a window. The ending scene was a guy looking out his window at the green forest. That’s when you realize that everyone was pedaling to create electricity and no one was allowed to go outside. They had figured out how to save the planet from humans.

When Klaus Schwab dies (most likely soon) he will own nothing and be very unhappy.

The sheer wicked and evil nature of the personalities on world stage:
Klaus Schwab
Nancy Pelisi
Brandon and junta
Trudeau
Puti
Endogamy

It’s astonishing

An efficient use of time and resources is barracks style sleeping arrangements and communal kitchens while most of us are out on work detail in Gulag. Arbeit Macht Frei.

Why you put Puti on that list? He is at least a natioanalist and patriot and arguably rather comepetent, unlike every one of the useless tyrannical globalists on that list.
