Michael Nevradakis reports:
“Thousands of prominent political and business figures are congregating in Davos, Switzerland, this week for the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF), whose theme, ‘Cooperation in a Fragmented World,’ focuses on the ‘cost of living crisis.’
In recent years, the WEF and its founder and chairperson, German engineer and economist Klaus Schwab, generated controversy by promoting ideas such as the ‘The Great Reset’ and the ‘Fourth Industrial Revolution.’
In promoting ‘The Great Reset’ in 2020, Schwab said the COVID-19 ‘pandemic represents a rare but narrow window of opportunity to reflect, reimagine, and reset our world.’
The WEF’s 2016 vision for the future — ‘Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better’ — has also raised eyebrows.
In its mission statement, the WEF claims ‘it is independent, impartial and not tied to any special interests.’
The statement continues:
‘The Forum strives in all its efforts to demonstrate entrepreneurship in the global public interest while upholding the highest standards of governance. Moral and intellectual integrity is at the heart of everything it does.’
However, critics describe the WEF as a ‘fanatical political organization masquerading as a neutral entity’ with the goal of ‘centralizing power into the possession of hand-picked global elites’ and for operating with no public input or accountability.
Some critics argue the WEF’s annual meeting ‘acts as the go-to in-person, invite-only, closed to ideological outsider’s policy and ideas shop for the global ruling class.’”
