In an essay titled "The Great Regression," renowned historian Victor Davis Hanson places the Great Reset in historical context. He begins by offering a few words of warning about the "Orwellian philology" of the words "Great" and "Reset." He writes:

"Assume the worst when the adjective "great" appears in connection with envisioned fundamental, government-driven, or global political changes. What was similar between Lyndon Johnson's massively expensive but failed "Great Society" and Mao's genocidal "Great Leap Forward" was the idea of a top-down, centrally planned schema, cooked up by elites without any firsthand knowledge, or even worry, how it would affect the middle classes and poor. So often, the adjective "great" is a code word of supposed enlightened planners for radical attempts at reconstruction of a society that must be either misled or forced to accept a complete overhaul."

The word "reset" is also suspicious, according to Hanson. In the same way that Barack Obama used the word "reset" in his foreign policy initiatives, Schwab's usage presumes that "all that came before was flawed … and all that will follow, we are assured, will not be so defective."

Hanson proceeds to explain how the Great Reset is essentially an example of transnational elites intending to, in the immortal words of Rahm Emmanuel, "never let a crisis go to waste." The political left exploited the fear and uncertainty brought about by the coronavirus pandemic to push and implement policies that would not have been palatable to the public in normal times.

In summing up Schwab's proposals, Hanson argues that the technocrats of Davos do not trust the ability "of elected leaders and legislatures of Western constitutional governments to solve problems independently."

In his concluding section, "Our Passe Constitution," Hanson warns that the prescribed centralization of bureaucratic power is reckless and dangerous. The Great Reset, he argues, is only the latest in a long line of attempts to implement global governance, which is incapable of securing and protecting individual rights and civil liberties in the way that national governance, built upon the sovereignty of nations, has successfully done. Thus, Hanson concludes, the Great Reset is not progressive, despite the claims of its advocates. More accurately, he offers, it should be labeled a "Great Regression."

We the people gave the government power to decide and act on its behalf when it comes to Pfizer and Xjection during the emergency period. We have to educate people at the grass roots level. It seems grass root levels people don't care. Or they care and decided to act as it was the most viable choice. Every vote matters.

China, which harvests the organs of marginalized groups by force, a billion dollar a year business in China.

LONDON — The organs of members of marginalized groups detained in Chinese prison camps are being forcefully harvested — sometimes when patients are still alive, an international tribunal sitting in London has concluded.

Some of the more than 1.5 million detainees in Chinese prison camps are being killed for their organs to serve a booming transplant trade that is worth some $1 billion a year, concluded the China Tribunal, an independent body tasked with investigating organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience in the authoritarian state.

“Forced organ harvesting has been committed for years throughout China on a significant scale,” the tribunal concluded in its final judgment Monday. The practice is “of unmatched wickedness — on a death for death basis — with the killings by mass crimes committed in the last century,” it added.
