Rockerfeller Study Outlines “Doom Decade”: Life For All But Super Wealthy Will Be Hell On Earth



Terror attacks, natural disasters and a surveillance security crackdown
Steve Watson

In our leading article today we provide an overview of the nightmare future envisaged by a recent Rockefeller Foundation study which describes a global dictatorship tightly controlled by the world’s elite and super rich.

The Rockefeller blueprint for a new world order entitled “Scenarios for the Future of Technology and International Development,” predicts four future narratives.

One narrative in particular, “Hack Attack” outlines a scenario in which Technology is demonized as a criminal weapon prevalent in a world where civilization has all but collapsed.

“Devastating shocks like September 11, the Southeast Asian tsunami of 2004, and the 2010 Haiti earthquake had certainly primed the world for sudden disasters. But no one was prepared for a world in which large-scale catastrophes would occur with such breathtaking frequency.” the report states.

“The years 2010 to 2020 were dubbed the “doom decade” for good reason: the 2012 Olympic bombing, which killed 13,000, was followed closely by an earthquake in Indonesia killing 40,000, a tsunami that almost wiped out Nicaragua, and the onset of the West China Famine, caused by a once-in-a-millennium drought linked to climate change.” it continues.

The study envisages nation states all over the world literally losing control of their public finances and the ability to retain order and stability with “violence and crime more rampant”. It also envisions global coordination and interconnectedness between nations breaking down altogether to be replaced by proxy wars and low level conflict.

“By 2030, the distinction between "developed" and "developing" nations no longer seemed particularly descriptive or relevant.” the report states.
The only ones able to prosper in such an environment (surprise surprise) are the global elite and the super wealthy:

“The global have/have-not gap grew wider than ever. The very rich still had the financial means to protect themselves; gated communities sprung up from New York to Lagos, providing safe havens surrounded by slums. In 2025, it was de rigueur to build not a house but a high-walled fortress, guarded by armed personnel.” the report states.

As a backdrop to this chaos, the study attacks advanced technology, in particular the internet, depicting it as a tool for criminals and terrorists:

“Technology hackers were also hard at work. Internet scams and pyramid schemes plagued inboxes. Meanwhile, more sophisticated hackers attempted to take down corporations, government systems, and banks via phishing scams and database information heists, and their many successes generated billions of dollars in losses.” the study prophesies.

“The internet is overrun with spam and security threats and becomes strongly associated with illicit activity -- especially on "dark webs" where no government can monitor, identify, or restrict activities.” the report states elsewhere.

Of course, the solution to fight such envisioned evils is to implement a highly sophisticated surveillance security system:

“Identity-verification technologies become a staple of daily life, with some hitches -- a database of retina recordings stolen by hackers in 2017 is used to create numerous false identities still "at large" in the mid-2020s.”

“The positive effects of the mobile and internet revolutions were tempered by their increasing fragility as scamming and viruses proliferated, preventing these networks from achieving the reliability required to become the backbone of developing economies -- or a source of trustworthy information for anybody.” the study outlines.

The message here is clear, the internet revolutionized global communication and enhanced the spread of knowledge, yet it is in its current form uncontrollable, and as such constitutes a great danger to the only ones who can continue to prosper in this nightmare new world order; the global elite.

While communication technology is demonized, other so called advances, such as genetically modified crops are lauded as progressive, despite being mired in controversy in today’s world. The study envisages the by now decimated poorer classes actually benefiting from “backyard and garage activities” including the mass production of GMO foods.

However, the report draws the line on such technological advances when it comes to the production of cheaper medicines and vaccinations, which it intimates will be deadly if allowed to be mass produced outside of elite control.

This study is not a work of dystopian fiction. It has not been written for entertainment value. This is what the Rockefeller Foundation and the elite Global Business Network envisage unfolding in the new world order. This study is deadly serious, and those involved with it’s funding and publication are not playing games.

Furthermore, the scenarios outlined in the report are not simply falling into place naturally, they are being actively implemented. Economic collapse and authoritarian social control are being fomented in front of our eyes by design.

The self correcting free market has been strangled and snuffed out by a combination of government intervention and offshore bankster looting of the planet’s wealth. As this situation continues to worsen, without meaningful corrective action, it is not difficult to imagine the social unrest we are already witnessing becoming global in its scope.

The report compliments these conditions with propaganda and fearmongering over climate change and natural disasters, as well as huge terror attacks.

It takes the overriding agenda of elite social engineers and places it into a not too distant future as a way of normalizing the prospects it outlines. As the report notes in it’s introduction, the scenarios outlined “allow us to imagine, and then to rehearse, different strategies for how to be more prepared for the future -- or more ambitiously, how to help shape better futures ourselves.”

At least they have our best intentions at heart............

LOCK STEP – A world of tighter top-down government control and more authoritarian eadership, with limited innovation and growing citizen pushback
CLEVER TOGETHER – A world in which highly coordinated and successful strategies emerge for addressing both urgent and entrenched worldwide issues
HACK ATTACK – An economically unstable and shock-prone world in which governments weaken, criminals thrive, and dangerous innovations emerge
SMART SCRAMBLE – An economically depressed world in which individuals and communities develop localized, makeshift solutions to a growing set of problems

Why should we leave scenario planning to the elites, jimmy ? If it works, we should be designing our own scenarios, with completely different outcomes, and leave the Rockerfellers to their own nightmares.

We shouldn't just leave scenario planning to the elites, we should be coming up with our own 50 page reports.;) However, I think most alternative scenarios of the future will involve people trying to resist the vision that people like the Rockfellers wish to impose upon them. Most people live on a day to day basis, they don't have the time or inclination that the Rockerfellers have to play God.

That certainly wasn't always so. There was a healthy age of utopianism when people thought up some pretty good futures. William Morris, Saint Simon, Thoreau and so on. There must be computer programmes now for utopian planning.

Sometimes the best societies are the societies where a lot of thought hasn't gone into them, they just evolve naturally. People find out what works out best for themselves.

I think many groups, organisations and countries are busy trying to plan their own scenario for the future. However, a big problem with that is that some of the smartest people who have ever lived have never been quite able to plan their way right to the very end. The 1000 Year Reich seemed to be going quite well until it hit a roadblock on the Eastern Front. I'm sure this wasn't part of their scenario for the future;) Over time, I would imagine that the Rockerfeller scenario will also hit a similar road block, although it might take a while before we get there.

I remember reading a book once where it stated that the thing governments most fear is intimacy between partners. it doesn't matter whether its in either a right wing or left wing totalitarian state.

It is the only time where they cannot control what thoughts are exchanged or what is said.

It doesn't take any utopian computer programmes for that.

What would be utopian would be a society in which the people is the government, and doesn't fear any relationship between people, public or private.

Don't think it would be. The only thing that motivates a Government to act in the best interests is fear of being dumped out of office in the next election

Government of the people, by the people, for the people ? :D

The problem with motivation by vote is that we sell our votes and they sell us out for our votes. Nothing long term is ever done.

I'm in favour of barring anyone who wants to be a politician from office and having a government of conscripts and/or people whose names are pulled out of a hat.

As I have said and will continue to say, this move towards a more authoritarian society is on the way unless we vote the other way. i.e. liberal ideals for freedom. The government over time will, FF/FG/La are all authoritarian parties, fear us into giving up more freedoms for national security. The media will propagate this, e.g. all the drug related murders will eventually lead some justice minister bringing in more laws to erode personal freedoms. They will say if you have done nothing you have nothing to fear. Those walled societies are here now and will get worse. This is the way it is going unless we vote for a government that has liberty as its main principle.

I agree. I have a conspiracy theory that conspiracy theory is a conspiracy to make us all run around like headless chickens, while pointing at other people calling them sheeple, enabling the elite to get its evil way.

Wishful thinking, it is virtually impossible to control an educated population in such a way for very long. Where there is a ballot box there is always an alternative if you are clever about it.

And we are educated and able to think and read.

Despite claims to the contrary, by and large the majority of the population will not return FF candidates at the next election.

The only thing is they are to a large extent protected from the harsh realities of unemployment.

I have read the report in it its entirety and I would consider the report to be a fair summary. It is up to others to judge whether they agree with the summary or not. Of course the headlines of the summary have been sexed up a bit, but that is a bit like a headline writer writing a front page headline, they will spice it up to attract readers. My main reason to type 'it should be adequate' was to let people know that the original file was a heavy file they would be downloading(5 mb) but that they should download the main article if they preferred to do that. The report is outlawing scenarios for the future, who knows how things will pan out, but I would say that if current trends continue the report may well turn out to be true!

Original article:“The global have/have-not gap grew wider than ever. The very rich still had the financial means to protect themselves; gated communities sprung up from New York to Lagos, providing safe havens surrounded by slums. In 2025, it was de rigueur to build not a house but a high-walled fortress, guarded by armed personnel.” the report states.

Here is an example of the gated communities which they referred to in the summary. They are already starting to pop up in huge numbers in China.

Shoubaozhuang, China — From Monday's Globe and Mail Published on Sunday, Jul. 18, 2010 11:48PM EDT Last updated on Saturday, Jul. 31, 2010 8:01AM EDT


Gated villages in China have for years been symbols of affluence; places where the rich can live in villa-style homes, surrounded by private schools and swimming pools, with fences to keep out those who don’t belong.
http://i30.tinypic.com/ncba5s.jpg
Now China is gating off low-income villages, where migrant labourers from the countryside (the people who built those expansive villas) live in near squalor. The newly erected fences and nighttime curfews are designed to hold in the residents, and the criminality that supposedly emanates from these communities. “Enhance the idea of safety and reduce illegal crimes,” reads a red banner hanging over the main road to one such village south of Beijing, home to some 7,000 migrants

That road into Shoubaozhuang is guarded 24 hours a day by two uniformed guards and partially barred by an accordion gate that closes tight at 11 p.m. each night. Until 6 a.m. the next day, the residents are sealed in. Only those with passes are allowed to come and go, their movements recorded by a video camera stationed over the entrance.

It’s one of 16 villages around Beijing that for the past two months have been locked down at night, under a program local authorities call “sealed management.” They say the aim is to get a better handle on the millions of migrant workers who have moved to the Chinese capital in search of work, and who often end up living in poor, dirty and rapidly growing places like the villages south of Beijing, some of which have seen their population grow tenfold in recent years.

it is already happening, our laws are becoming one of the most totalitarian in Europe. In the last 5 or so years, police power has increased hugely, survellience, etc and I agree it is being used as a cover for increased power. Media propaganda an obvious indication of the direction in which we are going; e.g govt phoning journalists when not happy with their viewpoints, it is getting to be a very nasty little country indeed.
