February 17, 2021 Editorâs note: Elites argue we need a âGreat Resetâ to rebuild the global economy in the wake of COVID-19. Today, Americaâs no.1 futurist, George Gilder, shows you what that really entails. [George Gilder] Dear Reader, Since I’m now vaccinated with Moderna’s RNA jab, I’m no longer wearing a mask. Maybe I should? Well, William Briggs, my statistical star, explains why “studies show” even one mask may not suffice to protect you: The CDC [Center for Disease Control], now losing relevance since coronadoom deaths are dropping, decided to get on the double-mask train. [It is urging a new “study.”] Now any idiot with no scientific training whatsoever knows that one mask restricts breathing, and that two restricts it more. Air flow is twice as impeded, or whatever. Three masks impede it more, and so on. There is therefore no reason in the world to do a ‘study’ to, well, study this. It is pure scientism of the first kind, if it happens. Meanwhile, the Israelis, who I used to think were smart, have awarded Dr. Anthony “Double-Mask” Fauci, already the Administration’s highest paid official, a new “million- “dollar prize” for “Speaking Truth to Power!” Amid our world catastrophe, at least we do not have to complicate our financial concerns with additional worry regarding Dr. Fauci’s finances... Meanwhile, Mike Kendall, my “Man on the Margin” in Dallas, recently posted his warnings on COVID politics, what I have called the “COVID Coup.” His thoughts below: SARS-CoV-2 is the first virus that's political. When you create an imaginary [or at least endlessly mutable and fear mongering] virus, it can be anything you want it to be and affect anything you want it to affect… If you're the Mayor of Austin, Denver, or LA, the Governor of CA, IL, or NY, [Speaker] Pelosi, or any other acceptable political representative, avoiding the lockdown, travel bans, and mask-wearing is not a threat to public health safety. If you're Tom Brady and walk into a stadium without a mask before you play a football game without a mask, you're a threat to world health… Everyone knows this is ludicrous, but as long as people keep acquiescing to the nonsense, the restrictions and loss of freedom will keep getting ratcheted up. That's right; you now need TWO masks. At some point, people will have to cease cooperating with their own enslavement. This is where this is headed with Universal Basic Income, health passports, mandatory vaccines, ID2020, smart cities, and the whole Agenda 21 [from the Davos “Great Reset”]. Until people say, ‘Enough.’” Welcome to the Great Reset.

The further question on the table, or under it, is the safety of investments in an economy that is being managed by masked midgets, climate cultists, fear-mongers, and monetary fantasists in Washington and around the world. In the coming weeks, I may be safe from coronadoom, but I am at risk of the potential spiking electricity prices as ice and snow seal off our Maskachusetts solar panels and windmill turbines, with natural gas and coal banned to fight the rising tide of warm weather. So I may just don my skis and skate off across the snow before the coming of the warm doomsday. In case you haven’t heard about it, we’re in the midst of a “great reset,” as it is called at the World Economic Forum in Davos, in which the world will be saved by the politics of climate and public health. One of the high priests is the unimpeachable Bill Gates, who recently gave an enlightening interview to Business Insider. Thrilled with the success of the COVID panic and its resulting vaccinations, he is moving on by releasing a brand-new book to address climate change, “the greatest threat of a world catastrophe.” So you may be intrigued to know that Gates believes solar panels and windmills are virtually useless in combating this threat: [J]ust funding, say, a solar farm or wind farm, the cost of money for those activities is identical to the rest of the economy. Whoever invests in that, that's not really affecting the climate and progress… Just being the bond owner of a solar field — people call that green finance, but that's not causing a reduction in greenhouse-gas emissions. Gates declares that actually combating climate change entails expenditures at least 20 times greater than combatting COVID itself. “Sustainability” In life after capitalism, we are moving toward a Rube Goldberg economy where the more we spend, the less we get. This week’s Barron’s cover stories focus on Cannabis stocks and the 100 Most Sustainable Companies. According to Barron’s, “At the beginning of 2020, there was more than $17 trillion invested according to sustainable principles. That’s up 42% from the $12 trillion at the beginning of 2018.” And even Bill Gates admits the vast bulk of this so-called “investment” does nothing to combat even the politically-correct hallucinations of climate change. Following the “sustainability” route, we print money madly in order to create a power grid that is vastly more complex, vulnerable, resource wasting and costly. We consume more of the scarce surface of the planet in order to supply less energy to the world population. Recommended Link [A New Market Superboom Coming In 2021]( [Read more here...]( The first time this happened in 2009 one investment spiked a massive 10,518%. The last time it happened in 2016, this same investment soared 3,000%. Other similar investments took off by 8,000%, 12,300% and even more. Donât miss out again! [Get In On The Action Now]( If economics is the study of scarce resources, money mediates among all the alternative uses and trade-offs. Money serves as a measuring stick, translating into economics the fundamental scarcity of time. Time is what remains scarce when everything else becomes abundant. Central banks can print money, but they cannot print time. Measured by time-prices — the hours and minutes a worker has to spend to buy goods and services — this path is steadily reducing wealth and value, retarding the processes of learning that constitute real economic growth. The key to investment success will be avoiding this vortex of unsustainable expertise and stupidity at all costs. Instead, in the information theory of economics, we are combing the world economy to create something of actual value through real innovation. What we have is a world of failed paradigms, where the more we spend, the worse the results. If you don’t believe it, just look at our ever more costly pursuit of internet “security.” 2021 has already unveiled the worst breach in history: the Solar Winds hack that Microsoft president Brad Smith says is “the largest and most sophisticated attack the world has ever seen.” The vast raid reaped huge masses of data from Wall Street’s leading companies and major government agencies. We may console ourselves by the assurance that much of the data is unreadable junk on sustainability. “We Have to Break Your Will” In the meantime, many Americans are freezing in the dark because of artificially induced power outages. Some climate alarmists might even call that progress. David Ismay, undersecretary for climate change in Maskachusetts, resigned last Thursday after saying that we need to break the will of those who heat their homes and cars: I know one thing that we found in our analysis is that 60 percent of our emissions come from […] residential heating and passenger vehicles. Let me say that again: 60 percent of our emissions that need to be reduced come from you, the person on your street, the senior on fixed income. Right now, there is no bad guy left, at least in Massachusetts, to point the finger at and turn the screw on and now break their will, so they stop emitting. That’s you. We have to break your will. In order for the Great Reset to become a reality, they must first break our will. Are you ready to have your will broken? Regards, George Gilder
