All Western democracies are welfare states to varying degrees, the most extreme versions being Germany and Sweden. An important component of the welfare state is its care for the aged. In recent decades life expectancy has increased, along with the cost of geriatric medicine. The cost increase is not linear — the last decade of life for those over 75 is, on average, very expensive, and governments are footing the bill.
Back in 2008 I posted about the coming demographic crisis and how various Western governments might decide to cope with it. It was clear that the Baby Boomers — my generation, the proverbial “pig in the python” — would eventually break the system as they entered retirement and became more and more expensive to maintain.
The current demographic debacle was foreseen long ago, all the way back in the 1960s and 1970s. The preferred solution back then was to import immigrants from the fecund Third World, who would become productive citizens, generating the tax revenues that would be crucial to supporting the Boomers in their dotage. In addition, Aisha and Mehmet would be trained to take jobs as nurses and medical technicians to staff the nursing homes that would eventually be bursting at the seams with the Aged of Aquarius.
Alas, the scheme failed to work out as planned: the newcomers tend to consume more in government benefits than they contribute in taxes. Furthermore, their occupational skills haven’t managed to reach the level of the natives they are supplanting, so that providing adequate care for the elderly becomes problematic. If the experience of the National Health Service in the UK is any indication, the on-the-job behavior of third-world immigrant caregivers goes beyond negligence to active abuse, and even becomes homicidal on occasion.
Raising the retirement age is one strategy to cope with the problem, but it is politically difficult to implement, and can even cause mass unrest. Besides, there’s a limit to how much it can be raised — just think of Joe Biden being employed as a bus driver or a store manager. We geezers tend to become less and less competent after attaining our allotted three score and ten.
By the time I wrote my post on the topic, it had become clear that the Powers That Be would have to do something fairly soon about the eldercare crisis. Projecting the situation a quarter-century into the future showed that it was catastrophically unsustainable. In 2017 I posted a follow-up, augmenting the gloomy prognosis with more detailed demographic data.
Obviously, it isn’t possible to increase the number of 20- to 50-year-olds in the population. There is, however, another way to increase the ratio of the young to the elderly; it’s just one that can’t ever be mentioned in public. Nevertheless, I’m sure it has been discussed extensively at closed-door meetings within the governing class, at both the national and the globalist NWO Davos-and-Bilderberg levels.
Geronticide has become an obvious necessity from the point of view of anyone who wishes to maintain the existing system in its current form. But how to accomplish it without generating mass unrest, rebellion, and systemic instability?
Half that quarter-century has elapsed since I first began making grim projections of geronticide. Back then I speculated about what form the culling of the aged would take, proposing several general strategies, beginning with triage and neglect. The latter was evident in care homes for the elderly in the UK. The quality of care varied by region, but overall the aged fared better if their families could afford something besides the NHS.
The NHS has also floated various schemes of triage, proposing to deny care to smokers, or the obese, or those with unhealthy eating habits.
Such actions, however, can only nibble away at the margins of the elderly population. To achieve a reduction that would lower costs significantly, more draconian measures would be required. Yet those would have to be implemented in a manner that the general public would not perceive as geronticide. How can that possibly be accomplished?
The past eighteen months of this extraordinary time we live in has allowed us to see the general outline of what is intended. The geronticide has now left the planning stages. The process of implementation has begun.
I’ve been waiting for the “vaccination” project to unfold completely before assaying an analysis of these momentous events. Enough data have now come in, however, to permit some educated guesses about what the man behind the curtain intends.
I’m making several assumptions. Firstly, all the actors in the process — Dr. Fauci, the Wuhan lab, the WHO, the CDC, the vaccine manufacturers, the media, various national governments, the pocket totalitarians among the mayors and governors who oppress their citizens with lockdowns — are being manipulated to serve the purposes of the architects of the geronticide.
The mayors and governors love their new despotic powers, but contrary to what many people think, that in itself is not the motive for the new totalitarianism. Those who designed the crisis understood well what a taste of tyrannical power would do to the progressives who rule our major urban conglomerations. Tyranny was indeed necessary to accomplish the ends of the project, so all those Li’l Hitlers were exactly what was needed.
The vaccine manufacturers and the patent holders for the mRNA treatments are making inconceivably large amounts of money from the rollout of the “vaccines”. Those players are surely motivated by profit, but their avarice is simply a tool that has proved useful to the Powers That Be.
The Red Chinese may be making what they consider to be a bioweapon derived from various animal-based coronaviruses and augmented by gain-of-function research. But the architects of the geronticide, by channeling the funding of the lab through the avaricious Dr. Fauci and his cronies, were able to direct the production of the exact pathogen required for their purposes.
Every bureaucrat at every stage of the process is gaining power and prestige from what is currently unfolding. Fiefdoms in medical bureaucracies are being enlarged and enhanced. The directors of corporations and state enterprises are getting richer and more powerful. Once again, they are all useful tools for those planners who never lose sight of the larger goals.
