Bill Gates supposed philanthropy serves a different agenda
http://davidrothscum.blogspot.com/2009/05/bill-gates-supposed-philanthropy-serves.htmlFor years Bill Gates has been known to most as the richest man on our planet. We are told Bill Gates is a self-made man who uses his fortune for the benefit of humanity. Nothing could be further from the truth. First of all, the image of a self-made man does not correspond to reality.
Bill Gates was born to William H. Gates, Sr. and Mary Maxwell Gates. Mary Gates was the daughter of a banker, James Willard Maxwell, who established a million dollar trust fund for his grandson. Maxwell's father had founded Seattle's National City Bank in 1906.
Bill Gates father was a corporate lawyer and his mother was a board member of First Interstate Bank and Pacific Northwest Bell. She was also on the national board of United Way, along with John Opel, the chief executive officer of IBM who approved the inclusion of MS/DOS with the original IBM PC.
Microsoft didn't even develop MS-DOS. It invested a total amount $75,000 dollar in an operating system called QDOS or 86-DOS that was developed by, Tim Paterson of Seattle Computer Products, and licensed it to IBM that needed an operating system for it's brand of computers. During all of this Microsoft made sure to keep the deal it had with IBM secret from Seattle Computer Products. Microsoft kept the rights to MS-DOS and this is what ensured Microsoft's rise to fame.
Bill Gates donates his money through his own foundation, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, that allows him to avoid taxes.
To ensure his foundation stays tax exempt, the foundation must give away at least 5% of it's assets on a yearly basis. The rest of the money is invested in other corporations to make more money. For the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, some of these include Governments, Merck, and oil companies.
The Foundation also funds the consolidation of the media, by giving a loans to the MediaNews Group, Inc. that used the money to buy up independent newspapers like the San Jose Mercury News and Contra Costa Times.
The San Jose Mercury news is notable for publishing Gary Webb's "Dark Alliance" series of articles in 1996, that exposed the CIA's involvement in the international drug trade.
Microsoft itself has learned how to avoid paying taxes as well. By opening offices in Nevade, a State that doesn't have corporate Income Taxes, the company managed to avoid paying at least $60 billion dollar in taxes.
Bill Gates himself believes that his Foundation's donations are reminiscent of those of the Rockefellers. He said:
"It seems like every new corner we turn, the Rockefellers are already there. And in some cases, they have been there for a long, long time."
In a previous report, I exposed some of the Rockefeller Foundation's grants. These included grants that provided funding for the Factories used in China's one child policy, and others before the Second World War that funded the German eugenicists.
Like the Rockefeller family, Bill Gates' foundation provides a lot of funding to Planned Parenthood. In 2002, the Foundation gave 1.7 million dollar to Planned Parenthood of America, and another 0,8 million to the IPrison Planet Forum.
In the same year, the Foundation gave 3.8 million dollar to the Rockefeller's Population Council which is also involved in Population Control. Grants from any of these Foundations to each other are essentially meaningless since they are owned by the same families, but do count as financial grants that need to make up 5% of the value of the Foundation's total assets.
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is also a member of GAVI,
the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization. Researchers like David Ayoub believe that GAVI is involved in the forced sterilization campaigns that are carried out through vaccines in the 3rd world. In a coming report I will post the various studies, some of which have gone unmentioned in the English media, done in nations throughout the world that found sterilizing compounds in these vaccines and antibodies against pregnancy hormones in the women injected with them.
Another Trustee besides Bill and Melinda is their friend Warren Buffet, who donated most of his money to the Foundation. Warren Buffet has been heavily involved in Population Control as well. The Population Research Institute reports:
Most of Buffett's share of the charitable donations (over $100 million) went to his Buffett Foundation, which supports the most radical aspects of the population control movement. In 1994, Buffett provided $2 million in funding for the Population Council, which was used to fund clinical trials of Mifepristone (RU-486). Buffett also provided $2 million to Family Health International for the distribution of quinacrine hydrochloride, a chemical with sterilizes a woman by burning her fallopian tubes. Quinacrine is illegal in the U.S., but is used, often coercively, in Vietnam, India, and other nations. In the late 1990s, Buffett committed to a $20 million grant to International Projects Assistance Services (IPAS) which manufactures and distributes manual vacuum aspirators, used for performing abortions in the Third World. 3
Why are these people so deeply involved in Population Control?
In the case of Bill Gates, there is a family history of involvement, like we saw in the Gamble family, as I reported on before.
Bill Gates' father, William Henry Gates, Sr. was a director of Planned Parenthood himself.
A recent meeting of top Billionaires received a lot of attention from the mainstream media, while the Bilderberg meeting held around the same time went virtually unmentioned.
MSNBC reported:
In a quiet meeting closed to the news media and the public, Bill Gates, David Rockefeller Sr., Oprah Winfrey and other leading philanthropists met in New York this month to discuss ways to promote efforts to solve growing social problems in America and abroad.
Together, the philanthropists in the room have committed a total of more than $72.5 billion to charitable causes since 1996, according to Chronicle of Philanthropy tallies.
The unusual event was held May 5 at Rockefeller University and was organized by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Among the high-profile participants were Ted Turner, Warren E. Buffett, George Soros and New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg.
Looking at the people who attended it becomes obvious this meeting must have been about their obsession with reducing the world's population, and this is confirmed by The Sunday Times.
The hypocrisy should be clear to anyone who knows about these people and their lifestyles. Both Bill Gates and his friend Buffett have three children. George Soros has 5, as does Ted Turner. David Rockefeller Sr beats everyone else on the list by being the father of six children.
The question of why these people are so obsessed with lowering the birth rate of poor people may have been answered best by Bill Gates himself perhaps. In an interview he mentioned:
GATES: The two areas that are changing in this amazing way are information technology and medical technology. Those are the things that the world will be very different 20 years from now than it is today.
I'm so excited about those advances. And they actually feed off of each other. The medical world uses the information tools to do their work. And so when you have those advances you think will they be available to everyone. Will they not just be for the rich world or even just the rich people and the rich world? Will they be for the world at large?
In a previous report I mentioned the various new technologies that governments and individuals around the world expect to be developed during this century. Some of these will vastly increase our lifespans. The British military for example mentioned in a document about our future:
Genetic Treatments to Prevent the Effects of Ageing
Developments in genetics might allow treatment of the symptoms of ageing and this would result in greatly increased life expectancy for those who could afford it. The divide between those that could afford to ‘buy longevity’ and those that could not, could aggravate perceived global inequality. Dictatorial or despotic rulers could potentially also ‘buy longevity’, prolonging their regimes and international security risks.
People like Bill Gates are aware of the medical and technological advancements that are expected to be made in this century. Julian Huxley, eugenicist and brother of the man who wrote Brave New World, started a movement called transhumanism that wants to improve the human race through emerging technologies like nanotechnology and genetic engineering. Bill Gates shows great interest in these ideas. For example, he has invited Ray Kurzweil twice for dinner to his house. Ray Kurzweil is one of the main voices in the transhumanist movement. Ray Kurzweil believes that humans will become immortal about 20 years from now. Whether these are simple delusions or not, people like Bill Gates take these ideas serious enough to call Kurzweil: "The best person I know at predicting the future of artificial intelligence."
It should be obvious to anyone that our planet could never cope with 6 billion immortal people who continue reproducing.
This puts Bill Gates comments I mentioned earlier about whether these new medical technologies will be available only to rich people in a whole different perspective.
Another issue to look at are the technological advances that people like Ray Kurzweil believe in that will mean the end to the vast majority of occupations the people of our planet have. For example, according to Kurzweil, by 2030 a $1 computer will be as powerful as the human brain.
During the past 10 years, 10 million manufacturing jobs were lost due to machines replacing humans. In many cases, people are trained to perform new jobs often involving more technology and less manual work. However, when $1 computers become as powerful as human brains, there will be no new jobs for people who lost their jobs due to automation, as the computers will manage themselves. The tiny elite that owns most of the wealth will have no need for the rest of us, since we will be easily be replaced by technology.
Some people became aware of this fact decades ago and came to the conclusion that the only way to prevent this nightmare scenario is by putting a stop to technological progress. One of these man was Theodore Kaczynski who we now know as the Unabomber. Kaczynski was born in 1942 and showed an incredible talent in mathematics. In 5th grade, a school counselor gave him an IQ test on which he scored 167. After a brief period of teaching mathematics the man began living as a primitivist and started his now famous bombing campaign. Although his tactics should be condemned, the man understood the dangers we face and some of his predictions have already turned out to be right. In his manifesto published in 1995 he wrote for example:
First let us postulate that the computer scientists succeed in developing intelligent machines that can do all things better than human beings can do them. In that case presumably all work will be done by vast, highly organized systems of machines and no human effort will be necessary. Either of two cases might occur. The machines might be permitted to make all of their own decisions without human oversight, or else human control over the machines might be retained.
If the machines are permitted to make all their own decisions, we can't make any conjectures as to the results, because it is impossible to guess how such machines might behave. We only point out that the fate of the human race would be at the mercy of the machines. It might be argued that the human race would never be foolish enough to hand over all the power to the machines. But we are suggesting neither that the human race would voluntarily turn power over to the machines nor that the machines would willfully seize power. What we do suggest is that the human race might easily permit itself to drift into a position of such dependence on the machines that it would have no practical choice but to accept all of the machines' decisions. As society and the problems that face it become more and more complex and machines become more and more intelligent, people will let machines make more of their decisions for them, simply because machine-made decisions will bring better results than man-made ones. Eventually a stage may be reached at which the decisions necessary to keep the system running will be so complex that human beings will be incapable of making them intelligently. At that stage the machines will be in effective control. People won't be able to just turn the machines off, because they will be so dependent on them that turning them off would amount to suicide.
On the other hand it is possible that human control over the machines may be retained. In that case the average man may have control over certain private machines of his own, such as his car or his personal computer, but control over large systems of machines will be in the hands of a tiny elite - just as it is today, but with two differences. Due to improved techniques the elite will have greater control over the masses; and because human work will no longer be necessary the masses will be superfluous, a useless burden on the system. If the elite is ruthless they may simply decide to exterminate the mass of humanity. If they are humane they may use propaganda or other psychological or biological techniques to reduce the birth rate until the mass of humanity becomes extinct, leaving the world to the elite. Or, if the elite consists of soft-hearted liberals, they may decide to play the role of good shepherds to the rest of the human race. They will see to it that everyone's physical needs are satisfied, that all children are raised under psychologically hygienic conditions, that everyone has a wholesome hobby to keep him busy, and that anyone who may become dissatisfied undergoes "treatment" to cure his "problem." Of course, life will be so purposeless that people will have to be biologically or psychologically engineered either to remove their need for the power process or make them "sublimate" their drive for power into some harmless hobby. These engineered human beings may be happy in such a society, but they will most certainly not be free. They will have been reduced to the status of domestic animals.
With billionaires and futurists like Bill Gates spending all their money on population control, it is clear that Kaczynski prediction turned out to be right. We can only hope his use of violence as a means of resistance will turn out to be unnecessary.
