It's interesting to read your perspective here Christine. It's not an angle I would have given much thought to. Since the age of 17 I've had the opportunity to house sit from time to time for extremely wealthy people that I barely knew in extremely remote areas around the states.

It's interesting to read your perspective here Christine. It's not an angle I would have given much thought to. Since the age of 17 I've had the opportunity to house sit from time to time for extremely wealthy people that I barely knew in extremely remote areas around the states. Sometimes for months sometimes for almost 2 years. One place had an actual address of Far-Away and the name of the town and zip.
Most of these people, from my experience, have a very different angle than the stereotype label they are given by most people. They often give in ways to make the world a better place and do so quietly and in their own time. But don't make the mistake of comparing that to the type of supposed altruistic fanfare that the Rockefeller type families try to hide behind. Those that create mega harms and corruption in the world are not the only wealthy people.
Like any group of people, some you can relate to and some you can not.
I didn't say all wealthy people are bad people. That's great, if you've had good experiences.
I expressed my perspective, taking into account the fact that Eric (and I) have been playing key roles in exposing an entire massive branch of pseudoscience that is extremely profitable and useful to controllers.
I disagree. No one gets wealthy in this world on their own, their wealth is the result of the systemic extraction of surplus labor power from the vast majority of the world's population. Great wealth at a time of the mass impoverishment of the vast majority is downright obscene, whether the wealth was attained via Big Pharma or otherwise. This isn't to say all wealthy people are bad, i.e. a value judgement, it's simply to note that their possession of such wealth is not something to be celebrated in any way. No amount of charity and "giving" can make up for the continuation of the day to day operations which grind down the world's human population and the planet itself, including all creatures great and small, flora, fauna, fungi......

Iva, see my response to Christine right below.

What this comment for me, Jeff, or someone earlier in the thread?
It was in response to you, but also to the comment by Iva which you had responded to, i let her know (above).
Ok thanks. I don't know what I said that you've disagreed to.
I thought you were making wealth out to be bad if it was connected to fake-germ-theory, and seemingly OK otherwise. Maybe i misread it.
