Klaus Schwab Recognizes His Arch Enemy: Libertarianism

 “You have this anti-system movement. What we are seeing is a revolution against the system. So fixing the present system is not enough. Now there is of course [an] anti-system, which is called libertarianism, which means to tear down everything which creates some kind of influence of government into private lives. It’s dismantling the system.” 

— Klaus Schwab, Founder of the World Economic Forum

Ironically, WEF had to invite the new Libertarian President of Argentina, Milie, to speak at their forum. Schwab had to allow his policies to be denounced on stage, after he had previously attacked Milei's Libertarian philosophy weeks before.

On stage, Milie warned against WEF's statist world view, graciously saying it originated from good-intentioned people, misguided people who are leading us into poverty.  He went on to explain that socialism is evolving, shifting from government owning everything to "controlling the owners" i.e. the close cooperation of government and business.

The WEP sells the common good as a disdain for your owning of things, that you should “allow” those supposedly wiser than you into your private lives, because it’s good for “the people” (whoever that is) to own more of you.  The age-old idea of the nanny state is that you can’t take care of yourself; you are flawed, let someone else take control … and force others to benefit from the same.

In opposition, Libertarians hold that you own yourself.  You choose your direction, you are not a puppet, you make of yourself based on your own free will.  Freedom from others’ control is what a human requires to achieve a life worth living.  One’s self-ownership is the ultimate universal good that permits a worthy life.  When you don’t own yourself, someone else will, inviting benevolent totalitarian masters who historically create a bureaucracy that grows mindlessly, stealing and squandering resources.  As Milie points out, Argentina’s let-us-take-care-of-you state policies, the government employing more than half of all workers, brought Argentina, once the richest of nations in the world, to a dire state.

Milie goes in depth, revealing the underlying eventuality of WEP’s philosophy:  morphing socialism into fascism by consensus, a warning that Ayn Rand predicted 40 years ago. Argentinians allowed the government and its cronies to guide their future like a runaway train.  Milie emphasized that WEP’s common-good policies have resulted in poverty for Argentina.

“You will own nothing and be happy”?  Humans who flourish own their life plan and like it, to the point that they will fight and die for their freedom.  They require a respect for what belongs to them.  They have good boundaries. They respect everyone else’s boundaries too, because it provides the safety they need.

Schwab seems to have found out that Libertarianism is the greatest roadblock to “the great reset”.  As it should be.  In the realm of good and evil, respect for your rights is “the good”, seen as a choice between liberty and slavery.  Libertarianism, the culminating product of the age of Enlightenment, will stand against statism, the idea that the government is most helpful when it controls all individuals.  Libertarianism is the revolution Schwab fears ... against his misconceived totalitarian revolution.

As Milie points out:  Libertarianism is the moral system.  It is in opposition to the immorality of one group that subjugates another through consensus.  WEP is one more promoter of a dangerous fad that subjugates the individual, resulting in political structures that create poverty and injustice.
