Monopolies

The Value of Labor: A Marxian Dystopia of Thought

Posted on by Helena

The Theory of the Value of Labor was constructed via 3 quite distinct men:   Adam Smith, Karl Marx and David Ricardo.   Smith was a proponent of competition to keep prices low. Marx leveled the value to be a matter of labor hours assuming all pricing equal.   Ricardo basically supported the Marx theory of utility fixing the price.   And then there are the very knowledgeable Facebook personalities who state that the value of labor is what someone is willing to pay – which derives from ‘fair and equitable’.

I beg to differ with them all:   recently I needed a repair to my air conditioner.   I was recommended a local family owned and operated business, lives down the street, pop does the repairs, mom does the books.  Support your neighbors kind of business. I was charged $175 labor for 15 minutes of work. This equates to $700 per hour for HVAC repair.   On an annual basis, that would equate to 4 times what The President of the US makes, 4 ½ times what an experienced doctor makes, and double what a lawyer makes – with overhead costs.

I paid because I had no choice – not because it was a fair and equitable exchange.

In 1759 Economist Adam Smith declared:   “he was wary of businessmen and warned of their “conspiracy against the public or in some other contrivance to raise prices”. Again and again, Smith warned of the collusive nature of business interests, which may form cabals or monopolies, fixing the highest price “which can be squeezed out of the buyers”. Smith also warned that a business-dominated political system would allow a conspiracy of businesses and industry against consumers, with the former scheming to influence politics and legislation.”

An example of forced payment vs choice:   every household must pay for their water (unless on well water).   But they must also pay for their water company’s ‘fixed charges’. Part of the fixed cost on my bills is a line item “renewable water’ – as in recycled waste cleaned and siphoned back into my house’s drinking supply for which I am charged an extra flat fee. The ‘fixed charges’ are typically 2-5 times higher than my cost for actual water use.

I don’t have the option to find competitive water companies.   I don’t have the option to search different utility companies that provide my electricity and gas   I don’t have the option to pay a different government.   Their VALUE of Labor is a totalitarian doctrine.  In these instances, labor is not based on value at all – it is based on price fixing.

Why? Because Competition has been eliminated by large Conglomerates which effectively and collectively own the vast majority of our corporations providing basic necessities.   They fix prices across their ownership brands and people quietly pay because we are told it is basic supply & demand economics of labor value. But it’s not.

Interestingly, these same people who accept without thought that an HVAC repair is worth $700 per hour in labor, decry the dastardly cost of gas, of food prices, housing prices, medicine or doctors etc.. as beyond rationale.   Somehow tradesmen don’t pump oil, don’t grow our food, and don’t build houses.   Because if they were counted under the same logic no one could complain about any level of pricing!   Would that fall under the Value of Labor?

The Art of Critical Thinking.  

Critical Thinking Definition:   “The intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, and/or evaluating information.”  The issue within critical thinking doctrine is the source of information you are analyzing.   As in – does it come from Mass Media?   Because Mass Media is fed by the Conglomerates and Cartel to tell their version of Reality.  Obviously that vacuum would completely obliterate to analyze.

Today, the value of labor is determined by The Conglomerates and The Cabalists.   This is why our government pulled us out of the gold standard. To allow this out of control upward trajectory of value without any real basis to support it.   Their are no gutters or barriers to quell the advance, as such the real value of the dollar is now 3cents. Much like building a house on sand.

Another argument of the Labor of Value Theory regarding my HVAC repairs posited by FB posters:   ‘that is valuable skilled labor’, therefore they can charge whatever they want!   That trade skill requires no college degree and takes roughly 9 months in a tech school and certification exams.   The purpose of tech schools is to train graduates in a trade that is marketable instead of a college degree in basket weaving.   I support that.   What I don’t support is the greed factor; a living entity that creates false standards of rates and markets.

For example: complaining about a burger flipper wanting $25 ph while heralding a Tradesman for making $700 ph ($1,400,000 annually) – a differential of 2800% wipes out economics and labor completely.   It also reflects exactly what Adam Smith predicted – a society squeezing out demand by the greed of mentality.

Retailers across the US are going bankrupt within the mentality.   Fast Food restaurants can’t make ends meet.   And doctors are quitting at an unprecedented rate.

When small businesses fall into the trap established by corporate America, they feed the demons.   One side of their mouth they vehemently complain about the rising costs of food, housing and gas, while the other side promotes the greed of their trade.

It is why Biden is bankrupting the Federal government. Spending us into an oblivion of unsustainable debt that can only be wiped if every government falls and corporate elites take over.   It is the World Economic Forum Agenda – A solitary global government of stakeholders.   States managed by corporate CEO’s who create their own means of ‘labor value’ based on the social credit score.   It is why blue governors allow crime.   Crime raises prices – causing less demand – causing bankruptcies – causing poverty.   It is a trajectory that too many people seemingly either don’t understand, or don’t try to understand – ie critical thinking.

It is a dystopia wherein our western culture is being trained to maximize costs under the guise of ‘value’.   

In the world of Hunger Games, we will accept that we need to be punished and all live like peasants licking bootstraps as we thank the Cartel for allowing us to exist.    Ultimately, this means of thinking will collapse the US economy.   And suddenly all our broken systems following an unlimited value of labor will be worthless requiring an ever advanced depopulation.

And You Will Be Happy – damn it!

BIG PHARMA: THE WHO WHAT WHERE AND WHEN – Rockefeller

Posted on by Helena

Ever wonder how Big Pharma came to be Big Pharma?   Who started the spoils of war?   For what purpose?

In the early 1900’s over 50% of US doctors practiced a form of holistic medicine using knowledge from American Indians, the Europeans and the Chinese.   And along came a spider…

The name of the spider was John D Rockefeller. At one point he controlled 90% of all oil in the US, is considered to be the first billionaire, and was an advocate of Social Darwinism, which has its basis in Nazism and socialism.

In 1900, researchers discovered petrochemicals from which the first plastic was made in 1907 – Bakalite. A true megalomaniac, Rockefeller saw the monopolistic opportunity given his vast control of oil, to create two additional fortunes; medical pharmaceuticals, and plastics to eventually include rubber.

In order to create that monopoly and rid himself of the competition, meant altering the view of doctors and patients who supported holistic medicine.   So, Rockefeller began a campaign to villianize the snake oil salesmen.   He hired Andrew Carnegie to tour the US and report on his findings of hospitals and the medical community at large. This led to the preparation of the Flexner Report which stated that a complete overhaul was necessary as well as a centralized system.   The concept is reminiscent of Open Society doctrine: bring terror and doom to the people – and offer a solution- Big Pharma. Cures were discouraged, and diseases were capitalized on.

Hospitals were shut down, holistic doctors were imprisoned, and $100 million (which would equate to about $2.6 billion today) was donated to recreate the medical field and the researchers, scientists and professionals within them.

In 1902, The General Education Board was created with an initial grant from Rockefeller of $1 million. The purpose was to wipe out any memory of holistic medicine and replace it with Pharmaceutical tinctures by establishing medical schools under the control and auspices of Rockefeller. Ultimately he foot $180 million toward that goal. All other universities and research centers that supported holistic medicine were barred from receiving funds and eventually shuttered.

The General Education Board was passed by Congress under Teddy Roosevelt thereby enabling federal funding.   Their claim that they eradicated ‘hookworm’ is a tremendous misnomer, however it did manage to become an historical landmark for the ultimate eruption of pharmaceutical medicine.   They created a false positive.   Today, that is essentially what the pharma industry continues to spew – false positives so as to create a market for additional drugs to fix the side effects of the ‘other’ drugs.

Today hookworm is still quite prevalent throughout the world, and the most definitive prevention is – wear shoes.

In 1939 a drug alliance was formed between the German company IG Farben (Bayer) and Rockefeller:   “Auschwitz was the largest mass extermination factory in human history. However, few people are aware that Auschwitz was a 100% subsidiary of IG Farben. On April 14, 1941, in Ludwigshafen, Otto Armbrust, the IG Farben board member responsible for the Auschwitz project, stated to board colleagues:

“our new friendship with the SS is a blessing. We have determined all measures integrating the concentration camps to benefit our company.”

Thousands of prisoners died during human experiments, drug and vaccine testing. Before longtime Bayer employee and SS Auschwitz doctor Helmut Vetter was executed for administering fatal infections, he wrote to his bosses at Bayer headquarters:

“I have thrown myself into my work wholeheartedly. Especially as I have the opportunity to test our new preparations. I feel like I am in paradise.”

Because of it’s Nazi image, after WWII, IG Farben was dissolved and rebranded as:  General Mills, Kellogg, Nestle, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Procter and Gamble, Roche and Hoechst (Sanofi-Aventis).

In 1930, Chase Bank bought Equitable Trust Company of NY whose largest shareholder was John Rockefeller Jr. This joint venture made Chase the largest bank in the world.

Today, the Rockefeller empire in tandem with JP Morgan Chase, own 50% of the Big Pharma industry in the US. The US accounts for over 50% of all global pharma sales. And the industry is the second largest manufacturer after arms and weapons. It is estimated the global pharma market will reach $1.17 trillion in 2021.

Rockefeller and his son created the Rockefeller Foundation in 1913. Today, the foundation is managed by Matthew Bishop who is also the editor for The Economist, a Rothschild publication.

Rockefeller, JP Morgan, and Kuhn Loeb and Company, which later became Lehman, counseled with Nelson Aldrich to form the Federal Reserve System in – 1913. In addition, they were instrumental in establishing a federal income tax despite previously declaring such a thing was – communistic. Aldrich’ daughter was married to one of Rockefeller’s sons. At the time, Kuhn Loeb was run by Jacob Schiff whose grandson married Al Gore’s daughter in 1997.

David Rockefeller, grandson to David Sr., was the CEO and Chairman of Chase Manhattan (which became JP Morgan Chase). Today JP Morgan’s assets are worth over $2.727 trillion.   Chase has a strong presence in Hong Kong – and thus maintaining its sovereignty from China is paramount. They are headquartered in London and advocate against BREXIT.

Like Rockefeller and Gates, most of these gigantic pharmaceuticals and banks have since created tax exempt foundations wherein they donate massive amounts of their corporate shares to not only avoid income taxes and capital gains taxes, but estate taxes. All while supporting the legislature that created and instituted the Federal Income Tax and The Federal Reserve.

In essence, pharma, banking, liberal agendas, and their roots are traceable.   While the web is enormous, it is definable.   If we desire to open our eyes and see!
