They realize what is taking place and they do not like it. There is nothing they can do about it other than to try and manipulate the masses into believing everything is the same. The truth is, we do not need them to protect us. To do so, is inviting the enemy into the house.
Which means that at some point a tax revolt is coming. The governments of the world depend upon about 1.5 billion of us in the west who've participated in banking privileges on supporting their violence against the other 5.5 billion people. Once you control your own money, the violence must become overt and naked. They've avoided this as much as possible by taxing you before you even see your paycheck so that you can't opt out easily.
