Closing
the Loop
https://www.bitchute.com/video/IXdqR15x361n/
Before I was 16, 70 years
ago, I heard about individuals who in 1800 partly owned a company who were
financially destroyed when mismanagement of the company led to massive losses,
which bankrupted them as individuals. I learnt that the introduction of the
joint stock limited liability company solved this problem.
All those years ago, I
worried about the down side. I have always thought that if one owns something,
but can avoid responsibility for it, someone may well suffer. This is
formalised when one insures one’s house against fire, but “coincidentally” one
insures against liability if someone in one’s house falls and breaks a leg.
All figures I give are
not accurate, but merely illustrative.
I first heard the names
“Blackrock” and “Vanguard” a few days ago. I shall use the name “BlackRock” to
mean a combination of the two, since they are inextricably linked. Blackrock
has a heavy share ownership in Vanguard, and Vanguard has a heavy share
ownership in Blackrock. Together, they handle $17,000,000,000
, or 17 trillion’s worth of “property”. They represent the final stage
in the reduction ad absurdum of what we might call “capitalism”. Based on the
USA, they own capitalism worldwide. This world has a GDP growth rate of 2%.
They are moving in on communist China, which has a growth rate in GDP of 6%,
and is the future.
The two companies
BlackRock did not exist 20 years ago, and are growing fast. It seems obvious
that their next step in BlackRock’s expansion is to “invest” in Communist
China. To satisfy the likes of Ivor Catt, they have to invest in places where
the fastest growth is, which today is China. That is why on the www we can see
a photo of Bill Gates shaking hands with the Chinese dictator. The wealth
created by capitalism in the past will flow to a totalitarian country, China,
with its child and forced labour, which is more competent in exploiting growth
than is capitalism in its latest stage, which has become a reductio ad
absurdum; the separation of ownership from responsibility having come home to roost..
I had £10,000, and wanted
to put it somewhere. I gave it to some sort of “financial management” company,
who used my money and other, similar money, to buy shares, and retain the bits
of paper representing the shares. There was some commotion in the company, and
it was “taken over” by another company, company A, who therefore hold some
company shares on behalf of me and on behalf of others. They have started to
send reports to me on which company’s shares they have bought, and they include
Blackrock.
I will monitor the
reports of Company A, and be interested in how much my “share” ownership
increases in value, preferably a reasonable amount, say 2% per year at the
present time, when interest rates are very low.
BlackRock own virtually
everything, which includes the pharmaceutical companies, which are highly
profitable. So, I am happy for them to own Pfizer and the rest. Pfizer and the
rest are highly profitable by giving American children 72 vaccinations,
destroying their natural immunity so that they have to have more and more
vaccinations. In order to be able to travel, my Liba
has accepted three Covid vaccinations, with dreadful side effects. Generally,
perhaps highly profitable companies do damage to society.
It has taken until I
reached the age of 86 to “close the loop”, and understand how I am profiting
from an attack on Liba’s health.
The Covid fiasco teaches
us that the whole of academia is a sham, with all academics knowing very little
of their own speciality and even less of everything else. As Malcolm Davidson
put it; they are all scared, they don’t understand, they don’t care. Nearly
every one of them is scared of being exposed as having so little expertise.
They are merely parrots, doing well in answering exam questions set by the very
people who previously “taught” them in the same examiners’ other role as
teachers and lecturers and text book writers. A long time ago I found out that
examiners wrote text books.
Aged 86, with much
experience, am I the first person to close the loop?

“The
development of limited liability facilitated the move to large-scale industrial
enterprise, by removing the threat that an individual's total wealth would be
confiscated if invested in an unsuccessful company. Large sums of personal
financial capital became available, and the transferability of shares permitted
a degree of business continuity not possible in other forms of enterprise.”

Dear Amber,
I added this
to http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/closing.htm
This reminded me of
something else from my past.
I had a wife and a
lot of kids and a house in Phoenix, and was enticed to sell up and move it all
2,000 miles to Connecticut. The division of the large company which took me on
closed down six months later, when I had already bought a house in Westport,
Conn. Sick of all the instability, http://ivorcatt.co.uk/x5aa.pdf I
sold my newly bought house and temporarily took a job down the road in
"Bunker-Ramo", who had the monopoly in the
electronics relating to the stock market. I did not understand why the R&D
lab there seemed so sleepy.
After month or so I
found out why. The men in the lab I "worked" with received insider
information on what was happening in various companies. For instance, an oil
company was going to strike oil next week. It was better to not know how the
information reached the lab.
Buy the stock, and
if it proves true, sell after a week or two and make more than 10% profit. If
the "news" was false, lose 2% in fees. With an initial outlay of
$1,000, if three out of four pieces of information were correct, a lab worker
would be a millionaire in a year; such is the way interest works when money
increases by 10% each week or two for a year or two.
The details are not
important. It might take longer, perhaps three years.
I concluded that
the "pin stripes", who all wore bowler hats and carried their
umbrellas into the centre of London each day, were doing such things and
thinking it clever.
Common sense said I
should rent a house and delay returning to England for a couple of years, then
returning very rich. I hated the idea that that would be the "clever"
thing to do, and soon we left to return to England, as previously intended, to
my new job in England for 60% less pay. This was in 1968.
I concluded that in
order to encourage people like me to do productive work, and not become a
wealthy parasite, law had to be enacted to say that buying a stock and selling
that same stock within six months should be heavily taxed. I suggest that would
stabilise the stock market. I wonder whether such an idea has ever been
broached.
