At the heart of the globalists’ view of the world there is a pump. The pump pumps capital around he world, or it doesn’t pump capital. It all depends on whether you obey the rules of the pumpmasters, as they tweaked the pump that pumps the capital that runs the world..."

"The Miniature Earth" - (Re-post)
If we could turn the population of the earth into a small community of 100 people, keeping the same proportions we have today, it would be something like this:
61 Asians
12 Europeans
14 Americans (from North and South America)
13 Africans
01 Australian (Oceania)
50 women
50 men
67 are not Christian
33 are Christian (Catholics, Protestants and Orthodox)
6 people own 59% of the entire wealth of the community
13 are hungry or malnourished
14 can't read
only 7 are educated at a secondary level
Of the village's total annual expenditures of just over US$ 3,000,000 per year:
US$ 181,000 is spent on weapons and warfare...
US$ 159,000 is spent on education...
US$ 132,000 is spent on health care.
If you keep your food in a refrigerator
And your clothes in a closet
You are richer than 75% of the entire world population.
If you have a bank account
You're one of the 30 wealthiest people in the world.
25 struggle to live on US$ 1.00 per day or less...
47 struggle to live on US$ 2.00 per day or less.
Work with passion
Love without needing to be loved
Appreciate what you have
And do your best for a better world.
