You're an excellent writer and very thoughtful free thinker. I am in a very tight financial situation right now, otherwise I would pay to read your articles. Of all the many writers on Substack, you are certainly a diamond. Thanks for bringing insight and understanding to your readers. I think you should have a strong following.

Thank you very much. Don’t feel pressured to pay me. Sharing my work with others helps me most to get my words out.

I agree with many of the points and the overall thesis, but was hoping for a bit more "proof". A reasonable explanation for the staffing shortages is that ton of people left the industry (switched careers) when they were let go or furloughed at the height of the pandemic, and it was very difficult to get them back OR train new people sufficiently (staffing shortages appear to be real everywhere). I don't doubt that air travel will have more restrictions introduced from COVID new variants or even new viruses at some point, and is already being restrained by ESG goals such as the Netherlands capping the # of flights next year. But I don't see "destruction" of the industry beyond those things. In the future, if your social credit score is good, you should be able to travel :)

I assume you're being facetious in your comment "if your social credit score is good etc".

As far as the Commercial Aviation Industry goes, yes, there will always be some flights.

For the well-off, for the executives of "essential industries" and of course the elites, including no doubt fairly worthless celebrities in terms of their contribution to society. Although of course many of the global elites have their own private planes etc.

This is one of the areas where the so-called "New World Order", "Fourth Industrial Revolution" and "Great Reset", whichever of the bullshit labels you wish, will fail.

There would be so much cronyism, nepotism, favouritism etc, when it comes to competing for seats on a plane that it is doomed to failure.

The other thing is that no army on the planet, will be able to maintain any semblance of law and order indefinitely in populaces, as their return to a feudal serfdom hits home.

In the moderate to long term, the Great Reset will become the Great Return to Anarchy, such as has occurred many times in history, but never at this level.

Think of the French Revolution, where as always happens after a revolution, infighting occurred largely driven by Robespierre's Jacobins against the Girondins, amongst others. During the reign of terror of the Jacobins (1791-1794) over 10,000 individuals were tried and executed. That didn't result in long term anarchy, of course. But it is a historical event which could certainly have it's parallels in what happens to the "Fourth Industrial Revolution", only on a Uber scale. Whether "Madame Guillotine" will be the disposal means of the Elites is unlikely, but the mob will find something amid the chaos to purge them. The elites are bloody fools :- let's collapse society and see what happens.

Even the People's Army of the CCP won't be able to control the collapse into chaos, despite their numbers. But many of the great works of art, literature and so on of the last industrial revolution and through history may be lost. Tragically unfortunate.

As Lincoln is credited with saying, though: "You Can't Fool All of the People All of the Time".

Why don't you look for them yourself. The author has gone to the trouble to write the article.

Do your own damned research. All you have to do is go to their very extensive WEF website.

Very well written and tied together. So many are not willing to admit the realities of the WEF agendas. I gave up my desire to fly abroad when I knew the tactics of the CDC and the V mandates and refused to receive their genetic modification injection. Freedom of movement is being crushed, but my inability to fly on my own limits me to their requirements. Appreciate your perspective and willingness to share. Well done.
