Hey crafty,
The company the guest speaker was referring to (who 'owns' Queensland) is the Brigalow Corporation. If you search 'Queensland' on the speaker's website freedomadvocates.org, you'll find a seemingly well-researched paper by FLORA (Farmers Land Ownership Rights in Australia) that goes into the political and legal maneuvering in great detail. I've read it, but still don't comprehend it properly. However, the ever increasing top-down nature of decision-making and rampant privatization has me concerned... for example, the Qld constitution's preamble was recently changed by the state govt with very little public debate.
I haven't listened to the whole show, but... Patrick Wood is very well researched (www.augustreview.com). I hear what you're saying about NWO paranoia... and I think you're right to be cautious about it.
Having said that, I think Agenda 21 is necessarily a policy of the status quo because sustainable development is a phrase that's been coined to make continued economic growth acceptable, without changing the fundamental problems... namely a debt-based monetary system. The continually expanding money supply places ever increasing pressure on the environment for it to maintain some of it's backing value; the real wealth of the world that has been pledged as collateral. That kind of development is unsustainable, no matter how many people you get to put solar panels on their roofs.
Technocracy goes hand-in-hand with this program of so-called sustainable development in that it marries the concept of anthropogenic global warming and the need to curb carbon emissions with the taxing or charging of every human on the planet for every bit of energy consumed that has a carbon consequence... hence the ETS and the carbon currency... that's why some are calling it a 'tax on breathing' (because we exhale CO2)... In order to do this effectively, Technocracy proposed that everyone needed to be tagged (identified) and of course there you have the digital concentration camp we see growing up around us now. Of course this gives those with all the wealth and power control over the world's resources on a global level.
That's why I drew the comparison with a resource-based economy; to show that Technocracy is the complete opposite, or should I say the motivation is the complete opposite to Zeitgeist and TVP.
At least that's my take on it... I don't know if the current system will collapse... problems = profit, yes, ... what if money is morphed into a carbon currency? Could profit be taken out of the equation once everyone is totally and utterly dependent on the ruling elite? I'm not sure. But I do think we need to be aware of the current system... I'm not advocating an 'us' and 'them' mentality... we can't liberate ourselves without liberating the elite... however, and I think some scenario planning and futurology would probably be helpful to us in predicting the short term future of the paradigm we are living in.
IMO you cannot beat a system, by standing out side the system.
