Did we get World Government in 2015?

Are we on the road to a New World Order? Is it already here? What used to be a conspiracy theory seems obvious now. Imagine the signs being like road signs, clearly marked as the architects of the New World Order reach their destination. Since the turn of the 21st century there’s been a major event every seven years. If we follow the seven year pattern the next big event could be due this month. I hope I’m wrong. Meanwhile I want to set up signs and mark the road laid out so far.

Twenty one years ago in Sept 2001, 911

What got invoked here? Revelation 9:11

The first event was 911 in 2001 where George Bush Junior and Tony Blair very quickly after announced a “New World Order.”

Six weeks after 9/11, President Bush signed the USA Patriot Act, which lowered protections against government collection of Americans’ communications and personal records. The Pentagon developed a vast new surveillance and information analysis system and DARPA hosted and ran the spy program.

The world changed after the towers fell. We started losing our privacy and travel soon became a nightmare, all in the name of “keeping us safe.”

Fourteen years ago in Sept 2008, the GFC

Then in 2008 there was the GFC, the Global Financial Crisis where the stock market plunged 777 points in the biggest fall in history. I don’t think this event was deliberate, given the sevens it was more like a warning from God. George Bush appeared on TV begging for a bailout. The banks were bailed out by the American Tax payer and nothing changed, the money went to the 1% and the bankers carried on embezzling, gambling and guzzling from the money spigot.

I thought after kicking the financial can down the road that it would all come to a screeching halt in 2015 but it didn’t. There were other items on the agenda.

Seven years ago in 2015, the Year of Lucifer

What happened in 2015? A lot of events – the big ones coinciding in September.

To begin with, 2015 was declared to be “The Year of Light” by the UN.

So what you say? Lucifer is known as “the Light Bringer.”

For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.

2 Corinthians 11:14-15

In Sydney, Australia the New Year opened with the theme of light as a big lightbulb appeared on the Sydney harbour bridge. Why would a sovereign nation not choose their own theme? Obviously it was orchestrated by the UN. That for me was the first sign of an unknown, unelected world government pulling the strings. Unfortunately the UN government now extends from New York right down to local council level.

Signs in the Heavens

There were signs in the heavens culminating with the fourth moon of the tetrad – a series of four blood moons which began at Easter / Passover of 2014 and ended in September 2015.

On the final blood moon, the United Nations celebrated its 70^th anniversary amidst much fanfare as they launched Agenda 2030, the framework for World Government on September 27^th 2015.

Pope Francis even flew in to New York for the occasion. He is the 266th pope to reign and he arrived on the 266th day of the year. And it takes around 266 days for a pregnancy! Jesus did say there’d be birth pangs.

I thought about all these events during my Bible reading and the words to the Creedance Clearwater song “Bad Moon Rising” kept coming to mind.”

The Novus Ordo Seclorum

Novus Ordo Seclorum means “The New Order of the Ages.” This is what the architects of the New World Order have been working towards. They’ve played a long game.

The pyramid is an important symbol in Freemasonry. They have the eye over the uncapped pyramid in the “accomplishment of the great work.” When will that be? The height of the unfinished Great pyramid of Giza is 146.7m (481.3ft). If you multiply 481.3 feet x 12 inches you get 5775.6 inches.

Freemason Symbols on US dollar. The pyramid has 13 steps and it is unfinished with the year 1776 in roman numerals MDCCLXXV1 at the base of the pyramid.

2015 = Anno Mundi Year 5775

1776 is on the base of the pyramid of the US dollar bill in the form of the Roman numerals MDCCLXXV1, for 1776 the Year of Independance. Under that date is “Novus Ordo Seclorum,” the New Order of the Ages.

The Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite use the dating system of Anno Mundi, the Year of the World, where they add 3,760 to the common date. So the common calendar year 2015 would be A.M. 5775.

They also use the Hebrew month and new year, so they begin to add another year after September 17th, making it the year Anno Mundi 5776.

It’s interesting that this branch of Freemasonry is using the Jewish dating system. 2015 was an important year for both Freemasons and Jews as the Year of Lucifer COLLIDED with the Jewish Year of Jubilee. The Year of Jubilee happens after seven lots of seven sabbaths totalling 49 years. For the Jews, it was a Jubilee year on their calendar, which happened on the 50th year, in September.

And now, here’s how the year 2015 or 5775 / 5776 was celebrated:

The Highway to Hell

In the entertainment industry the year 2015 opened in February with the wealthy and powerful wearing devil horns at the Grammys, singing along to “Highway to Hell” by ACDC. It seems a great song to rock to, but consider this:

The gate to hell is wide and the road that leads to it is easy, and there are many who travel it.

Matthew 7:13

There was also an act by Madonna where she danced with horned devils.

The theme was “Darkness to Light.”

Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Isaiah 5:20

The Grammys 2015

The nations signed Agenda 2030 at the UN in September and the Paris Climate Treaty in December sealed the deal. The carbon tax for the Paris treaty on Climate Change was adopted by consensus on 12 December 2015. Solomon’s tax was 666 talents of gold. Note the atomic number of carbon: carbon has 6 protons, 6 neutrons and 6 electrons, making it the physical representation of 666.

Another Sign in the Heavens, an astroid

In the intervening period a huge asteroid the size of the football stadium had a close encounter with Earth on Oct. 31st 2015. Did you know about that? It was a dead comet in the shape of a skull.

The Halloween Asteroid

An Offering on Friday the 13th?

In November 2015, not long before the signing of the Paris Climate Treaty, there was the Friday the 13th Paris attacks. The biggest loss of life was at the Bataclan Theatre where the band on stage, Eagles of Death Metal had started to play “Kiss The Devil.” I guess he showed up, 89 concert goers died while they were singing it. Were they sacrificed?

The Vatican celebrates Agenda 2030

The year concluded in December with the Fiat Lux light show at the Vatican on December 8th 2015. Lux is Latin for light.
“I am sorry that the facade of St. Peter’s has been turned into a propaganda stage for the scientific fraud known as ‘Catastrophic Man-Caused Global Warming,” Steven Mosher, president of the Population Research Institute, told LifeSiteNews;

“I am sick at the thought that this most sacred space — St. Peter’s Basilica — will be the backdrop for the further dissemination of this fraud, whose ultimate goal is to impose a ‘Carbon Tax’ on the developed countries. This tax will not only cripple global economic growth and undermine democracy, its proceeds will be used to fund even more population control programs in the developing world,” he said.

The tetrad : 27-28 Sep 2015 The astrological event, known as a blood moon occurred on September 27 in the U.S. and end a just after midnight on September 28. Although blood moon occurs a few times a year in various parts of the world, a tetrad is rare. A blood moon occurs when the earth casts its shadow on a full moon, causing a red glow.

This one is different for several reasons. It is the fourth blood moon in a tetrad and it will fall on the Jewish holiday of Sukkot. The first three instances of the tetrad already occurred on April 15, 2014, which was on Passover, October 8, 2014, on Sukkot, and April 4 of this year on Passover.
The last tetrad occurred in 1967 and 1968, when Israel recaptured Jerusalem.

At the same time, uncontrollable fires were raging in California.

We will all be subject to a carbon allowance and tax – our “carbon footprint.” The carbon atom is made up of 6 protons, 6 electrons and 6 neutrons. In the name of Agenda 2030, populations will be told to lower their carbon footprint by having one less child, living car free, forgoing air travel, and going vegan.

Contrast this to the lifestyle of the global elite who fly to Davos each year. The phrase “Davos Man” was credited to Samuel P. Huntington, a political scientist who spent the majority of his working life at Harvard University. In 2004, he wrote a paper about elites and “an emerging global superclass” of “Davos men” or “gold-collar workers …”
“The rewards of an increasingly integrated global economy have brought forth a new global elite. Labeled ‘Davos Men,’ ‘gold-collar workers’ or… ‘cosmocrats’, this emerging class is empowered by new notions of global connectedness. It includes academics, international civil servants and executives in global companies, as well as successful high-technology entrepreneurs,” Huntington wrote, citing an estimation that this elite would total 40 million people by 2010.
He said such global elites “have little need for national loyalty, view national boundaries as obstacles that thankfully are vanishing, and see national governments as residues from the past whose only useful function is to facilitate the elite’s global operations.”
What they enjoy, we will not be permitted to enjoy.

Notes

Anno Lucis

Another dating system is Anno Lucis, the year of Light, where you add 4000 years to the current Gregorian year because the world was reated from light 4000 years ago. The year begins in September of the Hebrew calendar. It’s a dating system used in Masonic ceremonial or commemorative proceedings.

Anno Mundi
The Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite also date their calendar beginning with the creation of the world, but they use the Jewish calendar, or Anno Mundi (In the Year of the World). The Scottish Rite adds 3,760 years to the common date, so the common calendar year 2016 would be A.M. 5776. They also use the Hebrew month and new year, so they begin to add another yearafter September 17th.

The end of currencies and a new control system

The Great Reset is a proposal by the World Economic Forum to rebuild the economy sustainably following the COVID-19 pandemic. It was unveiled in May 2020 by the United Kingdom’s Prince Charles and World Economic Forum director Klaus Schwab.

Catherine Austin Fitts calls it “a new control system.”

“What Covid-19 is, is the institution of controls necessary to convert the planet from democratic process to Technocracy. So what we’re watching is a change of control and engineering of new control systems. So think of this as a coup de’tat. For twenty odd years in the US we’ve had a financial coup de’tat. They’ve stolen all the money in the pension funds and treasury. They need an excuse to explain where the money’s gone so they’ve engineered a magic virus.”

Catherine Austin Fitts, Planet Lockdown

She said the new system has five pillars:

• The tech people building the clouds and the telecommunications
• The military doing space and operation warp speed – they’re putting up the satellites
• Big pharma making the injections that are genetically modified, for all we know making people infertile
• The media pouring out the propaganda
• The central bankers engineering us out of currencies and into the crypto monetary systems.

They’re trying to keep the five pillars separate to keep us from seeing it come together into an integrated system – the smart grid. Mr Global doesn’t want us seeing this until it’s too late. Transparency can blow the game.

She describes the new system as the end of currencies.

They’re not bringing in a new currency, it’s a new transaction system which will be all digital. What they’re trying to do essentially involves all the money on the planet. The challenge is how do they work a system that if people understood it, nobody would want.

This is a quote from the video, “Essentially, you’re trying to get people to buy into a solution before they see where it’s ultimately going to go, because you’re talking about a transaction system that is no longer a currency – it’s a control system. The central bank will have the ability to turn your money on or off if you don’t behave.”

Catherine Austin Fitts, Planet Lockdown

It’s interesting that her video, Planet Lockdown, has been repeatedly removed from YouTube. There have been 2.5 million views since December 22nd 2020.

I recommend the video.

Crypto currency, the 5th pillar

CRYPTO IS NOT A CURRENCY. IT’S A CONTROL SYSTEM. YOUR CRYPTO (IN A DIGITAL SYSTEM) CAN ARBITRARILY BE TAKEN AWAY IF YOU DON’T BEHAVE. THAT IS NOT YOUR ASSET. IT IS A CREDIT AT THE COMPANY STORE. AND THEY CAN TAKE IT AWAY OR CHANGE ITS VALUE. – CATHERINE AUSTIN FITTS, INVESTMENT ADVISOR

Unlike the dollar, which is tied to the oil standard as the petrodollar, the crypto will have a human being as its collateral.

SO YOU SEE BILL GATES COMING OUT WITH ID2020, SO EVERY HUMAN BEING HAS A BIOMETRIC ID. THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT CHANGING FROM AN OIL STANDARD TO A HUMAN STANDARD. AND WHERE I COME FROM, WE CALL THAT SLAVERY. WHERE THE DOLLAR SYNDICATE WANTS TO GO IS A MARK OF THE BEAST SYSTEM, A CONTROL SYSTEM. THE END OF CURRENCIES.”

“Crytocurrency is not a currency, it’s a crypt.” – Catherine Austin Fitts

The Feds real estate aquisition plan

An interesting thing that emerged from the video is the location of the Black Lives Matter protests.

When the authorities stopped people from going to church, but allowed them to go to BLM protests, Catherine Austin Fitts and her team started looking at it closely. They created a database of Covid cases and deaths by state, cities, and whether the governor was Republican or Democrat. They added a box for riots. A pattern emerged that begged closer examination. They added a box for Federal Reserve Banks. There are twelve banks, one headquarters, and then the branches – a total of 37 locations, and 34 out of 37 of the bank locations had riots. They mapped each of the 34 riot sites, starting with Minneapolis. They studied the opportunity zones. The opportunity zones are tax shelter mechanisms created in 2018 to help tech billionaires if they sold their stock to avoid capital gains tax. It’s fantastically profitable. They saw that Lake Street in Minneapolis was right at the bottom of the opportunity zone. She said that’s not a riot pattern – it’s a real estate acquisition plan.

First they shut down the small businesses, declaring them as non-essential with the Covid lockdown, and then they organised the riots. After that, it’s easy to go and buy the real estate. This makes the ecnomics of building out the smart grid in the Fed cities around the Fed banks much cheaper, which I presume you’re wanting to do if you want to come out with a crypto-system.

A new feudalism

While billionaire philanthropists and technocrats are acquiring land at an accelerating speed, they appear to be telling the general public that in the future private property will virtually cease to exist.

In his books, World Economic Forum founder and globalist Klaus Schwab makes clear that the ‘Fourth Industrial Revolution’ or ‘The Great Reset’ will lead to the abolition of private property.

That message is echoed on the WEF’s official website, which states, “Welcome to the year 2030. Welcome to my city – or should I say, “our city”. I don’t own anything. I don’t own a car. I don’t own a house. I don’t own any appliances or any clothes.”

Apparently, you won’t be allowed to own any private property and your only recourse will be to live in a state of permanent dependency on a small number of rich elitists who own everything.

That used to be called feudalism, which is a form of slavery.

Prince Charles

THE UN-SUSTAINABLE PRINCE

Prince Charles who has flown under the radar has been very influential behind the scenes. He along with World Economic Forum director Klaus Schwab unveiled the plans for “the Great Reset” where we will own nothing, so it’s no longer a conspiracy.

The late Joan Veon, a committed Christian, international journalist, and businesswoman attended more than 100 United Nations and UN-related meetings all over the world and reported on the links between the Technocrats and the UN. Her article ‘Sustainable development, Agenda 21 and Prince Charles’, shows how Prince Charles kicked the ball off for Agenda 21.

The only thing that will blow the game now is transparency. We’re not going to get that with the media.

NZ Monopoly

We’ve been sitting down playing the latest game of Monopoly these holidays.  The board is an ominous black colour, there’s no cash and it’s ruthless!  At least you get round the board quickly.  Even my husband joined in.  He normally refuses to play, calling the standard game “Monotony.”

Anyway, it got me thinking about the game.

How would you feel if we sat down for a game and I was the banker who could generate more Monopoly money whenever I needed to?  I had the most expensive streets.  Your cheap properties would end up mortgaged, and every time you made it around Go, you’d only get about half of your Go money because a portion would be electronically deducted to me via income tax and GST – even before you landed on the tax squares.

That’s what the system is like in every country in the world that has a reserve bank and a system modeled on the Bank of England.

In the New Zealand version of our rigged game of Monopoly, if I as the Banker did get into trouble, I would take your money to keep myself in the game.  It’s called the “Open Bank Resolution.”  New Zealand is the only OECD country without deposit insurance.

To add insult to injury the banker is foreign.  The “big four” banks in NZ are all Australian – even the BNZ, which was sold to Australia in 1992 after the NZ tax payer bailed it out in 1990.

Do you want to play?  The NZ version of Monopoly is probably the worst – but we’re all playing unless you’re in North Korea, the only country left without a reserve bank.  Interestingly, the other hold outs – Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya have had central banks imposed after being invaded.

Guess How Many Nations In The World Do Not Have A Central Bank?

Money creation, Fractional Reserve Banking

While the NZ Reserve Bank controls the issue of currency, most of the money is now generated electronically – essentially created out of nothing by the Australian banks.  We think the banks are loaning from depositor’s funds, but they’re not.

“As the Bank of England has now confirmed, banks create the money they lend out of nothing and can charge interest on the new money for as long as it exists in the form of a debt owed to them.” Source:  Banks fuel housing market by ‘creating’ money.

We could educate ourselves about money.

We could ask our governments for a change to the money system. Ask why we aren’t creating the money electronically and charging the banks for it?

Has NZ been left with a financial T-Rex?

New Zealand’s Prime Minister John Key has resigned.  I’m surprised at the timing – just after the Kaikoura earthquakes, and on the same day that Italy’s prime minister resigned.

It reminds me of that scene in Jurassic Park where the kids got left with T-Rex.  But let’s hold that uneasy thought for the time being.

Key should have resigned like he promised when it was proven that the GCSB is carrying out mass surveillance of us New Zealanders.  But when the Snowden revelations did indeed show that in 2015, nothing happened.  At least he would have had some credibility if he’d kept his word.

But he hasn’t kept his word.

For instance, he wasn’t going to raise the GST tax.   John Key’s changing opinion on GST rise.

On gay marriage – before his government passed it into law in 2013, he previously said “he did not believe there was a big demand for gay marriage in NZ and that civil unions were enough.”

Has John Key left big shoes to fill?  No, those big shoes look more like flip flops.

John Key flip flops like a girl changes clothes

His comments were flip and his neo-liberal financial leadership was a flop.

So what has John Key done in the three terms he’s been in?

He raised GST to 15%, turned NZ into a tax haven for the one percent, sold NZ land to overseas investors thereby pricing our children out of the domestic housing market, signed NZ up to the TPP, sold state houses – which forced vulnerable NZ families into living in cars, and under his watch New Zealand’s gross debt has soared to a whopping half trillion dollars.

That’s what we know he’s done.  So what’s happening behind the scenes that we don’t know about?

How about New Zealand’s exposure to derivatives? 

Former Canterbury University accountancy lecturer Dr Susan Newberry, now professor of accounting at Sydney University’s business school, still keeps a fascinated eye on the “New Zealand experiment”. And some of what she sees she finds a little alarming.

Does the average Kiwi know the country’s balance sheet now has a derivatives exposure of $180b, she asks? That is rather a lot of those “financial weapons of mass destruction”.

It means the NZ tax-payer is on the hook if it all goes wrong and there is the international equivalent of a bank-imposed mortgagee sale. (Think Greece, Iceland and Ireland.)

But hey, what could go wrong?  It’s like 2008 never happened!

John Key was directly involved in the development of derivatives – the financial contracts and credit default swaps that no-one understands, which led to the toxic sub-prime housing loans, which led to the Global Financial Crisis. The likes of Merrill Lynch and the Bankers Trust profited from foreign exchange trades and derivatives speculation at the expense of national economies.

In transforming NZ into a tax haven and creating the speculative housing bubble, he’s done the same thing to NZ that he did to Ireland, when as head of global foreign exchange for investment giant Merrill Lynch he shifted a considerable amount of his business to Ireland in the mid-1990s to take advantage of a 10% tax rate for foreign investors.

Fran O’Sullivan: Key chases luck o’ the Irish

That’s what you get when you elect a banker for Prime Minister.  He’s done really well for the one percent.

A shaken nation

At midnight on the day globalists John Kerry (US Secretary of State) and John Key (prime minister of NZ) met in Wellington, NZ suffered another huge earthquake.  It did damage to the top part of the South Island and the capital, Wellington.

This quake was different because it was actually two huge earthquakes that happened simultaneously. Two earthquakes, that lasted two minutes, with two people dead, affecting two islands (the North and South Island) – and the land has undergone a two-metre shift south of Marlborough …with aftershocks felt in Seddon.

(The fact that Seddon is affected again is significant. I’ve explained in a previous post that the prominent statue of Richard Seddon outside NZ’s Parliament Buildings has come to represent the authority of the government in NZ. Is the nation being shaken because the government is again doing something out of its mandated authority?)

And all this has happened during a super-moon and before a huge storm.  There were also strange lights, seen flashing across the sky in Wellington while the earth shook. These lights are an extremely rare occurrence, happening in only 0.5% of earthquakes.

Strange bright lights flash across Wellington sky during earthquake

What was the reason for Kerry and Key’s meeting?  Ostensibly Kerry had stopped into NZ on his way back from a trip to observe “climate change” in Antarctica – even though NASA found that it is not possible to say whether it is warming or cooling overall, and the ice sheets aren’t melting.

The real reason he was in NZ was probably to plan a way to get the TPPA finalised before Trump quite rightly puts a kibosh on the deal.

US Secretary of State John Kerry meets with John Key in Wellington with the future of TPPA on the line

Kerry and Key are not New Zealand’s friends. They are a threat to New Zealand’s sovereignty.

The TPPA has been negotiated in secret, aided by a compliant media. New Zealanders are not privy to this deal. It’s frightening.

Free trade agreements are not about jobs; they are about strengthening corporate power and maximising dividend returns to shareholders. Under the TPPA, corporations will be able to sue our government with lawsuits conducted in secret, foreign tribunals.

APEC is another globalist trade bloc designed to benefit the oligarchs.  This quake has forced John Key to delay his trip to APEC in Peru until later in the week.

Bollard, former governor of New Zealand’s central bank said “Many of the 21 APEC economies are seeing a rise in anti-globalization sentiment, and a key topic for the leaders in Peru will be on what this means for global trade.

Bollard believes the backlash against formal trade deals may lead members to conclude that APEC — which is non-legally binding, consensus-driven and takes incremental steps — is more crucial, as it works on a range of areas like food security and reducing inequality.”   Source: Leaders of TPP nations to review options with US President Obama

I shudder to think what “food security” and “equality” are going to look like.

Again I ask, is the earthquake a sign that the NZ government acting outside of its mandated authority?  The pattern of ‘two’s associated with this quake appear to be a sign, but God knows what it means.  I’m just thankful there wasn’t more loss of life.

It is significant this earthquake happened on the same day in history that New Zealand’s first governor, Governor George Grey arrived – on the 14 November 1845.

Coincidence?

NZ government in denial over housing crisis

New Zealand has got a previously unheard of problem – homeless families are sleeping in cars, while nearly half of the houses in our largest city Auckland (49%) are being snapped up by foreign investors and then sitting there empty!  The Chinese were the biggest group.  Last year in June it was 41% of Auckland homes. 

John Key, our prime minister and former banker who worked at Merrill Lynch, glibly believed most of the investors in the property market would be locals.  It was clear the government either didn’t have a clue or didn’t care.  NZ doesn’t have a foreign buyers register or any rules around speculation on houses.

Last year a whistle-blower from the real estate industry said mainland Chinese money snapped up at least 80 per cent of residential sales in parts of Auckland in March but were nearer 90 per cent in May, 2015.  Of course the whistle blower lost his job.

Here’s the radio interview about it: Property insider: It’s bigger than you think
“Property speculation is rampant, and I believe on the strength of these numbers that offshore Chinese investors are a very significant part of what’s going on,” said Phil Twyford, the MP for Te Atatū.  When he was accused of being racist for pointing it out, he said “I’m speaking for young New Zealanders who want affordable home ownership. If we solve this problem, if we ban foreign buyers, that will make a big difference.”
Leaked data shows Chinese offshore buyers fuelling ‘rampant’ Auckland property speculation, Twyford says.

“What I’m saying is that there is a tsunami of Chinese investment headed towards international real estate markets, including New Zealand. These numbers are coming from Juwai.com, the preeminent Chinese website that markets real estate, including New Zealand real estate. There’s a whole industry marketing our houses to Chinese investors.”

There are more than 6,000 real estate agents in Auckland.
Here’s a quote from Juwai.com about their buyers,

“Property is investment of choice – a stable investment exemplifying wealth & status. Chinese buyers spent US$37 billion on international residential property in 2013. 70% pay cash for property purchases.”

It quoted there are 63 million upper-middle-class Chinese and 2.8 million high-net-worth Chinese.  Less than 1% of them can read English.

The Chinese have deeper pockets than New Zealanders.  Our children will be the tenants of Chinese landlords – if they’ll even rent to them.

And then we hear that while people sleep in cars as the city grapples with homelessness, more than 33,000 Auckland dwellings are officially classified empty.  They’re called ghost houses.” That’s the size of a NZ town.  Running on Empty: Auckland’s “ghost” house problem.

The Minister for Housing Nick Smith replied “Diddly Squat” when asked about the percentage of foreign property buyers.  In fobbing the journalist off, it appears our government favours money over people.

How are we doing in 2020?

73-year-old faces long wait for social housing in Christchurch

There’s no political will to fix the housing crisis which was caused by Helen Clark and John Key.

KiwiBuild: You can’t live in a reset – New Zealand’s housing crisis still looking for a fix

What has become crystal clear in the past few years is that the political will to build houses is not nearly enough.

 

The sellout of NZ

Thanks to greed, poor planning and economic mis-management, we can kiss goodbye to dreams of home ownership and a quarter acre section for the kids to run around on.  We now have people living in cars – unheard of before the economic reforms of the 1990’s.

New Zealand now has the highest housing prices in the world, next to Qatar!

How did we get here? These are a number of causes; (1) Supply and demand, (2) Land restrictions under UN inspired initiatives like Agenda 21 and now C40, (3) Foreign banks creating NZ’s money, and (4) Economic mismanagement.

(1 and 2) The demand for land out-stripping supply. The Auckland City Council has been restricting the amount of land that can be built on. Our media haven’t reported on this – but in December the Auckland City Council signed up to the C40 Low Carbon City Group, a group of councils across the world that regard carbon as a pollutant.  Carbon is not a pollutant – but we won’t go into that here.  I’ve already addressed that in Carbon Con, another blog post.

The C40 dream is for “compact cities” where car use is restricted. Our councils were already restricting land for building on under Agenda21, but it will really ramp up now Auckland is one of the C40 cities. The plan is for high density housing where people walk, bike, or use public transport. How can that be good for families? Gone will be our own private backyards where children and pets can play in the summer, and log fires in the winter. Gone will be our cars and garages. Gone will be land ownership and privacy. Surveillance will be increased and energy use will be monitored by things like “smart meters”, another thing that has been imposed on us.

(3) Foreign Bank lending causing housing inflation.  The other reason for inflated housing prices is bank lending. NZ’s banking sector is dominated by big Australian Banks – called “the big four.” New Zealand banks were sold to them in the 1990’s.  The big four are the ANZ, NAB, Westpac and Commonwealth Bank. These foreign-owned banks hold 90% of New Zealand’s mortgages.

They make money electronically out of thin air and then loan it to New Zealanders at interest. Our money system is still based on the printing of bank notes, and nothing has been done to stop them from creating electronic money in this fashion. The overseas banks do have to have reserves, but its not covered by depositors funds – it’s covered by the inflated price of the land from the bubble they’ve created.

The big banks make huge profits which are taken out of NZ. They win, property owners and speculators win, and our children and people on the lowest rung of the economic ladder lose.

I’ve just heard on the news that half of the house buyers in Auckland are speculators. There are no laws to stop speculation in the NZ property market. The speculators don’t even have to be NZ citizens. It’s morally wrong.

(4) Economic mis-management.  Finally, we don’t have enough builders. The National Party decided that ‘the free market’ would deliver all the industry training New Zealand needed,” effectively wiping out the old apprenticeship system in the 1990s. Wage subsidies for apprentices on block courses were abolished in 1991, leading to the huge trades skills-crisis facing New Zealand today.  Source: http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/PO0507/S00250.htm

What can we do? Here are my ideas.  Stop unelected overseas entities from stealing our wealth.

Put pressure on our local and national government to demand the councils get out of the C40 “low carbon cities” initiative. Our rate payers are not being looked after in this group, and rates have gone up and will continue to go up. Technocrats in the UN, carbon exchanges and overseas investors are the only winners here.

Ask for a change to the money system. Ask why we aren’t creating the money electronically and giving it to Housing NZ?

Join Positive Money NZ – they’re part of an international movement for money reform.  http://www.positivemoney.org.nz/

Demand that we reinstate building apprenticeships.

Stop speculators buying our homes. Make it so they can invest in forestry or commercial property – but make it illegal to speculate on our homes.

Demand our local and national governments use some common sense – something that has flown out the window with the neo-liberal reforms of our economy in the early 1990’s. Blind fools in our government have let “the market’ dictate business and economic activity here, without any rules around the banks or the investors – resulting in this mess. They’ve enriched themselves at the expense of our country and our children.

Don’t borrow from the big four Australian Banks.  Go to the Cooperative Bank, Kiwibank or the Taranaki Savings Bank – they are all NZ owned.

I’d love to hear what you think.

And now in 2022, the average price of an Auckland house is now 1.5 million.  Nothing has changed in the six years since 2016.  An economic crime has been committed against us and our children can no longer buy homes.  The worst part is it didn’t have to happen.

New Zealand Infrastructure Commission research finds ‘accelerating house prices were not inevitable’

NZ in Panama paper leak 60,000 times

Here’s a story of greed and hypocrisy.  This is what happens when a country elects a banker as prime minister. 

New Zealand is one of the highest taxed nations when it comes to income tax, and we also pay 15% GST on everything we buy.  Even children have to pay tax after the government cut children’s tax credits in 2012.

There’s no privacy protection for us when it comes to the government or IRD.

Also, under the US FACTA law (Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act), any NZ citizen unlucky enough to be born in the US will be reported on by the NZ government to the IRS if they try to open a bank account, or file a company return.

So that’s what happens to individuals.

But if foreign investors park their money here, no questions are asked and no tax is paid.

Our prime minister John Key got the law changed for this in 2011 when he wanted to turn NZ into a “financial hub” – like Ireland.  When he was head of Merrill Lynch’s derivatives and global foreign exchange business in London, he shifted a lot of the bank’s business to Dublin.

The result was Ireland’s financial crisis, where the clever use of tax-haven rules and a huge credit boom permitted real estate prices and construction to grow quickly before declining ever more rapidly.

Even though John Key was fully cognisant of Ireland’s collapsed banking system and financial hub collapse, he was cock-a-hoop about doing the same thing to New Zealand.

Glib, smooth and dismissive, in December 2010 Key rubbished objections to his plans and directly specified a 0% tax rate, telling the Minister of Economic Development Gerry Brownlee to deliver him a paper that had zero rating of funds.

In February 2011 Gerry Brownlee (Minister for Economic Development) delivered what he wanted, and in May 2011 the international financial “advisors” started drooling.

The law change in September 2011 to 0% tax  for foreign investors made NZ a tax haven.

When a 60 minutes report came out in 2012 about wealthy foreigners dodging tax, Peter Dunne (government lapdog minister) and John Key described it as “legitimate tax avoidance.”  Under the law John Key said that tax evasion is illegal, but tax avoidance is not.

But this is what the IRD department says to the NZ tax payer about tax avoidance:  What’s wrong with tax avoidance

Nothing got done about this issue.

Now in 2016 the birds are coming home to roost.  We have NZ trusts at the centre of Malta money scandal, and NZ is mentioned in the Panama paper leak 60,000 times.

What else are we going to find?

Prime Minister John Key’s register of interests has revealed he has a short-term deposit in a company specialising in New Zealand foreign trusts.  Source: Edwin Mitson, Business Desk, Yahoo! Finance.

He has refused to disclose his tax details.

When Key was asked if it was right that trustees did not have to tell the IRD who was behind the trust, what assets it had, its income, its beneficiaries, the residence of its settlor nor the nature of its assets, Key deflected reporters by saying they should “ask the IRD.”  Even though he was the one who demanded the tax shelter for foreign investors in 2011.

Iceland’s prime minister resigned last week after being the first major casualty of the Panama Papers leaks which revealed how the super-rich manage their money.

Will there be calls for John Key to resign if we find his hand in the cookie jar?  Unlikely.  He previously promised to resign if it was proven that the GCSB carries out mass surveillance of New Zealanders. When the Snowden revelations did indeed show that in 2015, nothing happened.
