29 Signs That The Elite Are Transforming Society Into A Total Domination Control GridMichael Snyder, Contributor They fund the political campaigns of our politicians, they own nearly all of the large corporations and financial institutions, they exert very tight control over the media and their agenda is being promoted through the education systems of virtually every nation on the planet. What the elite are doing is not illegal. In fact, they use the government and they use the law to accomplish their purposes. That is one reason why the elite love big government. For them, it is an instrument of control. The larger the government is, the easier it is to watch, track, monitor and control the rest of us. As you read this, a total domination control grid is being constructed all around us that is far beyond anything that George Orwell ever dreamed of. This system is advancing on hundreds of different fronts, and it is getting tighter and more restrictive with each passing day. We may think that we still have a certain degree of liberty, but if you start doing things that the system does not like, the system has a way of getting you back in line very quickly. In the end, it is all about control. There are many among the elite that actually believe that a tightly controlled society that is dominated by government institutions that they control is what is best for humanity. Many of them honestly believe that society would descend into chaos without a strong hand guiding it. Many of them truly are convinced that those that are enlightened are doing a noble thing by guiding humanity into the bright future that the elite are designing for them. The following are 29 signs that the elite are transforming society into a total domination control grid 1. A new bill in the U.S. Senate would allow more than 20 different government agencies to read your email without a search warrant. 2. Next generation facial recognition cameras that can identify a person in less than a second and send authorities all known intelligence about anyone who enters a cameras field of vision are being put up in southern California. 3. A highly sophisticated surveillance grid known as Trapwire is being installed in major cities and at high value targets all over the United States. Unfortunately, most Americans do not even realize that it exists. 4. Police departments all over America are beginning to deploy unmanned surveillance drones in the skies over their cities. But dont think that a drone is not watching you just because you dont live in a major city. The truth is that the federal government has been using unmanned surveillance drones to spy on farmers in Iowa and Nebraska. There could be a drone over your house right now and you might not ever know it. 5. Individual politicians know more about you than they ever have before. The amount of information that the Obama campaign has compiled on potential voters is absolutely frightening If you voted this election season, President Obama almost certainly has a file on you. His vast campaign database includes information on voters magazine subscriptions, car registrations, housing values and hunting licenses, along with scores estimating how likely they were to cast ballots for his reelection. 6. The UK is often five or ten years ahead of much of the rest of the world in implementing Big Brother police state measures. Over there it is now against the law to insult someone with your speech. If you say something that is likely to insult a Muslim or a homosexual you could end up being dragged in front of a judge. It is only a matter of time before we see these kinds of laws all over the planet. 7. Could you imagine the government telling you what the temperature inside your own home can be? A new law in France would do exactly that Heating a French home could soon require an income tax consultation or even a visit to the doctor under legislation to force conservation in the nations $46 billion household energy market. A bill adopted by the lower house this month would set prices that homes pay based on wages, age and climate. Utilities Electricite de France and GDF Suez will use the data to reward consumers who cut power and natural gas usage and penalize those whom regulators decide are wasteful. 8. Control freak bureaucrats love to tell others how to run their lives. For example, one man down in Orlando, Florida was recently ordered to rip out the vegetable garden that he was growing in his front yard. Will we eventually get to the point where even the smallest details of our lives are micromanaged by the government? 9. Most Americans dont realize this, but the DNA of almost every newborn baby in America is collected and stored by the government. What plans do they have for all of this DNA? 10. All over America, schools are beginning to require students to carry IDs with RFID microchips in them wherever they go. Fortunately, some students are fighting back The San Antonio sophomore who opposed microchipping student IDs that would track their every movement has inspired a groundswell of 300 students in her huge district who now refuse to wear the identification chips over religious, personal privacy, safety and civil liberties concerns. In addition, some 700 other people have signed petitions opposing the microchipping program. 11. There is more crossover between our education system and our law enforcement system than ever before. An increasing number of schools in the United States have police officers roaming their hallways, and today there are more than 70,000 children behind bars in America. 12. When you rely on FEMA to take care of you, it can literally feel like you are in prison. The following is a description of what life is like in one FEMA camp that was set up in New Jersey in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy Sitting there last night you could see your breath, displaced resident Brian Sotelo told the Asbury Park Press. At (Pine Belt) the Red Cross made an announcement that they were sending us to permanent structures up here that had just been redone, that had washing machines and hot showers and steady electric, and they sent us to tent city. We got (expletived). Sotelo said Blackhawk helicopters patrol the skies all day and night and a black car with tinted windows surveys the camp while the government moves heavy equipment past the tents at night. According to the story, reporters arent even allowed in the fenced complex, where lines of displaced residents form outside portable toilets. Security guards are posted at every door, and residents cant even use the toilet or shower without first presenting I.D. They treat us like were prisoners, Ashley Sabol told Reuters. Its bad to say, but we honestly feel like were in a concentration camp. 13. Your cell phone collects information about you wherever you go, and law enforcement authorities in the United States requested that cell phone data be turned over to them more than a million times in 2011 alone. 14. The federal government has created an iPhone app that is designed to encourage all of us to take photos of suspicious activity and report our neighbors to the authorities. 15. The U.S. government is increasingly using spyware to monitor the behavior of their employees while they are at work. 16. According to three NSA whistleblowers, the agency has the capability to do individualized searches, similar to Google, for particular electronic communications in real time through such criteria as target addresses, locations, countries and phone numbers, as well as watch-listed names, keywords, and phrases in email. 17. Private corporations are gathering every shred of information about you that they possible can. One of the largest companies involved in mining our data is known as Acxiom. It turns out that Acxiom has compiled information on more than 190 million people in the United States alone The company fits into a category called database marketing. It started in 1969 as an outfit called Demographics Inc., using phone books and other notably low-tech tools, as well as one computer, to amass information on voters and consumers for direct marketing. Almost 40 years later, Acxiom has detailed entries for more than 190 million people and 126 million households in the U.S., and about 500 million active consumers worldwide. More than 23,000 servers in Conway, just north of Little Rock, collect and analyze more than 50 trillion data transactions a year. 18. We are being trained to give up our privacy and our dignity in the name of security. For example, what the TSA did recently to one woman who was dying ofleukemia was absoutely shameful A dying woman says a a security pat-down at Sea-Tac Airport left her embarrassed in front of crowds of people. Michelle Dunaj says screeners checked under bandages from recent surgeries and refused to give her a private search when she requested one. 19. According to one recent survey, nearly one-third of all Americans would be willing to submit to a TSA body cavity search in order to fly. 20. Law enforcement authorities all over the United States will soon be driving around in unmarked vehicles looking inside your cars and even under your clothes using the same backscatter technology currently being used by the TSA at U.S. airports American cops are set to join the US military in deploying American Science Engineerings Z Backscatter Vans, or mobile backscatter radiation x-rays. These are what TSA officials call the amazing radioactive genital viewer, now seen in airports around America, ionizing the private parts of children, the elderly, and you (yes you). These pornoscannerwagons will look like regular anonymous vans, and will cruise Americas streets, indiscriminately peering through the cars (and clothes) of anyone in range of its mighty isotope-cannon. But dont worry, its not a violation of privacy. As ASEs vice president of marketing Joe Reiss sez, From a privacy standpoint, Im hard-pressed to see what the concern or objection could be. 21. A company known as BRS Labs has developed pre-crime surveillance cameras that supposedly can identify criminal activity before it happens. These cameras are being installed at major transportation hubs all over San Francisco. 22. According to Gizmodo, the Department of Homeland Security will soon be using laser-based scanners that can scan your body, your clothes and your luggage from 164 feet away Within the next year or two, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security will instantly know everything about your body, clothes, and luggage with a new laser-based molecular scanner fired from 164 feet (50 meters) away. From traces of drugs or gun powder on your clothes to what you had for breakfast to the adrenaline level in your bodyagents will be able to get any information they want without even touching you. The technology is so incredibly effective that, in November 2011, its inventors were subcontracted by In-Q-Tel to work with the US Department of Homeland Security. In-Q-Tel is a company founded in February 1999 by a group of private citizens at the request of the Director of the CIA and with the support of the U.S. Congress. According to In-Q-Tel, they are the bridge between the Agency and new technology companies. Their plan is to install this molecular-level scanning in airports and border crossings all across the United States. 23. A complex network of automated license plate readers carefully track the movements of millions of vehicles as they move in and out of Washington D.C. and the surrounding suburbs. Most people do not even know that they are there. 24. The FBI is spending a billion dollars to develop a biometric identification system that will reportedly be far more sophisticated than anything that law enforcement in the United States has ever had before. The US Federal Bureau of Investigation has begun rolling out its new $1 billion biometric Next Generation Identification (NGI) system. In essence, NGI is a nationwide database of mugshots, iris scans, DNA records, voice samples, and other biometrics, that will help the FBI identify and catch criminals but it is how this biometric data is captured, through a nationwide network of cameras and photo databases, that is raising the eyebrows of privacy advocates. Until now, the FBI relied on IAFIS, a national fingerprint database that has long been due an overhaul. Over the last few months, the FBI has been pilot testing a facial recognition system and soon, detectives will also be able to search the system for other biometrics such as DNA records and iris scans. 25. If the government decides that you are a bad guy, they can put you on a no fly list that will ban you from flying indefinitely. This can be done to you at any time, without any notice, and you wont be told that it has happened. In fact, as one prepper discovered recently, you might only find out that you are on the list when you try to board a flight. 26. Those that revere individual liberty are now being labeled as potential terrorists in official U.S. government documents. 27. A National Guard whistleblower recently revealed that members of his unit were told that doomsday preppers will be treated as terrorists when civil unrest breaks out. 28. One family in Idaho recently had their home raided by a SWAT team because a computer identified them as constitutionalists after someone had phoned in and complained about a domestic disturbance at their address. 29. Today, the mainstream media in the United States is totally dominated by just six giant corporations. Those corporations own television networks, cable channels, movie studios, newspapers, magazines, publishing houses, music labels and large numbers of popular websites. The way that almost every American looks at the world is being constantly influenced by these media corporations every single day. Please share this list with as many people as you can. We desperately need to wake people up while there is still time. This article first appeared here at The Truth.
