You have only now come to this realisation? This is worldwide Judah. There is a grab for wealth, and a tightening of the screws on everyone else. The disparity in wealth is becoming unsustainable in many parts of the world, and as a direct result we are seeing the rising instability.
It is a return to Dukes, Kings, Queens, Serfs and plantations. This may seem like an extreme analysis, but that is the equivalent of what is happening, just in modern times. Those countries that have not bought into the vision, are now being squeezed economically as with the financial crashes that keep hitting economies their systems of wealth distribution and social service are becoming harder to maintain. It is already well known that the recent financial crash was engineered, and that the systems that allowed it to happen still prevail. The questions which have never been asked and explained, is WHY? I haven't heard a satisfactory answer to that.
