“Destiny’s powerful hand has made the bed of my future, and it’s up to me to lie in it. I am destined to be a superhero, to right wrongs, and pound two-fisted justice into the hearts of evil-doers everywhere. You don’t fight destiny. No sir! And you don’t eat crackers in the bed of your future, or you get all… scratchy. Hey, I’m narrating here!” — The Tick, 1994
As a freelance writer and editor, I work on a lot of high-level international documents. Though they are freely available on the interwebs, very few of us actual humans ever read them, and with good reason. If I didn’t get paid to do it, I would rather pull my own teeth with tweezers.

These reports, roadmaps, frameworks, and studies clearly lay out the machinery of global governance. They go into excruciating detail on the legal and regulatory foundations for how governments blend with NGOs, blend with financial institutions, blend with “stakeholders” (how I detest that term). Pretty soon, it’s one big clockwork of doom; a metronome of mediocrity; a calendar of calamity!
The Pendulum of Peril persistently pounding, propelling us toward the pit of perpetual pandemonium!
In some ways, I have a front-row seat for The End of the World as We Know It, and I feel fine…especially when the payment clears. It’s not that I want what’s coming, but I’m resigned to the complacency of humanity in its Mcteaguery.
For those who think they can vote their way out of it, sorry old chum, life ain’t a cabaret. That bulldozer of bondage coming at you isn’t going to stop on election night. That wheelbarrow of wishes has left the station, and we are Joseph Cotten thinking Alita Valli has escaped.
Nations? Borders? Governments? They’re alreayd gone. Everything else is just to keep you entertained while the final cogs of captivity are dropped into place.
Consider this passage from one of my recent projects:
“When the national government is perceived as too untrustworthy or high-risk by project lenders, the national government might be required to forego sovereign immunity and agree to binding international arbitration in a neutral jurisdiction in order for the project to secure financing.”
Let’s take an example: Sistema de Interconexión Eléctrica de los Países de América Central (SIEPAC), which is associated with Mercado Eléctrico Regional (MER). The project is supported by various international organizations, such as the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), and regional utilities, and is managed by Empresa Propietaria de la Red (EPR), the entity responsible for operating the SIEPAC transmission infrastructure.
I told you it was tedious.

So, note that none of the “entities” involved are governments. They are banks, NGOs and “regional authorities,” and they are all supranational. SIEPAC controls the flow of electricity to Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. This arrangement was sold to the local populations as enhancing energy security, efficiency, and reducing energy costs by actively trading surplus power on an open market.
Sounds like paradise, doesn’t it? Except for that bit about surrendering sovereignty and national control over energy supplies, of couse. But hey, who’s quibbling when the lights are on?
These power trading blocks are everywhere — Europe (e.g. Nord Pool, EPEX, OMIE), Africa (e.g. SAPP, WAPP, CAPP), South America (e.g. SINEA, MEI, BAPT), North America (e.g. ERCOT, NERC, PJM), and Asia (e.g. APG, CASA-1000, EMIEA). Slowly but surely, a global grid under a single non-national “authority” is being created. The key word is “harmozing”. The NGOs push through legislation that “harmonizes” with neighboring countries, so they can be linked together and synchronized.
It is all funded by global financial “entities” like World Bank, Asia Development Bank, International Monetary Fund, and so on. Just like when a bank holds the mortgage on your house, it can dictate the insurance you must have and what you can do to the property, and if you don’t pay they just ynak it out from under you. Imagine beng able to throw a switch and blank out an entire country for non-payment.
And this is just electricity.
