THE BURNING PLATFORM

BY PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS

The World Economic Forum is the worst source of disinformation in the world.  Even the name is disinformation as it is not a world forum representing the world.  It is a group of stupid American and European corporate executives who have been conned by Klaus Schwab, the world’s worst ego-manic, into believing that you don’t count until you are a member and devote of the WEF.

Schwab has sold the executive class the line that WEF attendees are members of the most prestigious country club and are members of a privileged caste that exists so far above “useless eaters” that the goal of culling the world population by 7.5 billion people is not shameful.

At the recent WEF meeting in Davos, Switzerland, Schwab and his devotees took a hit broadside from Jaier Milei, the newly elected president of Argentina. Milei told them that the Western world is in danger because the West’s leaders had abandoned freedom and adopted collectivism.  Milei was talking about the WEF.  Either he is a very brave man or he did not realize to whom he was speaking.  I expect that he will have an “airplane accident” or be pushed out of office by some concocted charges from Washington.

Washington’s diminishing influence and power has encouraged other long silent voices in Latin America to speak up.  The distinguished Peruvian, Dr. Victor Andres Belaunde Gutierrez, took up Milei’s theme and unloaded on the WEA groupies as disgraceful and shameful:

“The demonstrations of frivolity and intellectual mediocrity that the famous forum emits are increasingly scandalous. For example, the impression that the prostitute traffickers make during these meetings – why not some orgies while we save the world with 2100 euro-a-night women?”

“The pitiful spectacle of a supposed witch, sorceress, or God knows what, emitting sounds and spitting on the faces of some panelists, is decidedly pathetic. I cannot conceive how a person who has any notion of self-respect, would tolerate being a part of pranks of that caliber. Can people who willingly participate and applaud such farces be recognized as serious?”
