Word: Bilderberg
When it comes to transparency, this year’s Bilderberg
summit fails in every way imaginable. Three prime ministers, two
foreign ministers, one president, no press conference. No public
oversight. Just a bunch of senior policymakers locked away for three
days with some incredibly powerful corporate lobbyists, discussing
subjects intimately related to public policy. Subjects such as
“globalisation” and “current economic issues”, which in practical terms
mean the giant trade deal, the Transatlantic Trade and Investment
Partnership. Writhing around the issue of TTIP is an unholy knot of politicians
and vested interests, their tails knotted together in the pitch black of
an Austrian sewer. - Charlie Skelton, Guardian

Michael Hudson predicts more feudalism, as productive industrialization has failed to break the privilege of the rentier class. Free market used to mean free from rent and privelege, now it means authorized to collect. Bilderberg gathers the capos of the leisure class.
