Beware the locusts of Davos

No one knows the exact number of private jets that descended, as though out of the clouds of a New Olympus, onto the tarmacs of Davos, Switzerland, earlier this month. We do know that 3,000 people, including heads of state and representatives from the administrative states of Europe, the Americas, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, combined with international bankers and transnational corporate heads to help determine for themselves the fate of Earth’s 8 billion inhabitants.

The ideas that emerge from the World Economic Forum, whatever they might be, generally seep into administrative agencies of nations like our own and form policies that erupt into a vast number of rules that have the effective power of laws. These “rules” are enforced by the same agencies, without the benefit of an independent judicial review to determine if they align with our highest law, the U.S. Constitution.

“Davos law” will tax every product produced in America, while the attendees of Davos and their administrative state collaborators prosper.

“Davos law” is the inverse of our constitutional law. It descends from the top down.

Our Constitution was designed in no small part to establish the inverse of the historically typical form of tyrannical government. The Constitution of 1787 rejected top-down dictates. The framers devised a means of governance in which power flowed up from the people, through the people’s assemblies, to make law. In America, the people are supposed to be the sovereign, not the bureaucracy.

The framers established that the people’s representatives in Congress would be the “fountain of all original authority.” Per Article I, Section 1 of our Constitution: “All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress … which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.” That authority cannot be delegated, and for good reason. The persons who write the laws governing the people mustbe within the people’s reach of redress and recall through regular elections, or the people are no longer the sovereign. Period.

Whoever determines the “rules” that emerge from Davos are not our representatives. They are a composition of lobbyists and administrative agency heads whom you’ve never heard of or voted for and have no means of holding to account. You will know you have broken “their” “rules” only when agencies like the EPA, the IRS, or the FBI break down your door.

There was a lot of chatter at Davos about European bank mergers being aided by cross-national regulations (just like our rules, but in Europe) and there was talk about inflationary pressures from the rise in oil prices. But the main focus of this year’s WEF was climate change.

In the United States, these Davos ideas become part of the “Green New Deal,” which none but the most fanatical socialist likes and Congress never passed. This policy exists to address an “emergency” that more than 1,800 noted international scientists say does not exist.

But the bureaucratic machinery will move forward inexorably, with higher taxes and higher consumer prices coming for everyone based on a dubious “crisis.” Some businesses will be regulated and fined out of existence. Millions of people will lose their jobs. Others will gain a financial windfall from government “investments,” underwritten by your tax dollars, and tax breaks, also funded by your taxes. Others still will grow rich thanks to beneficial lending rates from very interested banks who do their government’s will, to keep government oversight agencies friendly.

Meanwhile, every business in America will be told how their manufacturing plants mustbe built, what trucks they mustuse to distribute products, and what goods they may or may not produce, down to what office water cooler and coffee machine they are allowedtobuy.

Meanwhile, we, the poor multitudes, will be told what stove we must buy, what car we must drive, and what kind of air conditioner we’re allowedto have.

There will be a cloud of regulations, taxes, and unforeseen effects that will consume our economy like a horde of locusts, as “Davos law” will tax every product produced in America, while the attendees of Davos and their administrative state collaborators prosper.

U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres spoke for many of the Davos attendees when he said, “We mustn’t allow geopolitical divides to prevent global responses to global challenges, like climate change.”

In other words, you don’t get a vote if they can help it.

And be wary of what you say. The globalists in the Democratic Party share some traits with the Olympians of myth: They are practically omniscient with technologies we fund for surveillance. And they are omnipotent with agencies we fund for law enforcement. Ask Donald Trump how a fist of that feels.

Beware the Olympians of Davos, beware these Joves and their thunderbolts! For these globalists are something more. They are omnivores who, with their hunger for power, exercise a near-divine ability dedicated to devouring our rights, our freedoms, and our wealth – down to the last dollar.
