Dark Future

In my Great Reset book, I spent substantially more time discussing this part of the plan, and I encourage you to read about it there. For now, though, it's enough to say that if you have any familiarity at all with the many political fights ongoing in the United States, Canada, or Europe today, it won't be hard for you to imagine what Great Reset elites have in mind when they talk about increasing government welfare programs. However, the second big component of the Great Reset is much more complex, insidious, and, as such, requires longer discussions. Yeah, this book is 500-plus pages. Unlike the first piece of the Reset, the second can be put into place without long, drawn-out political battles, making it much easier to achieve. That does not mean it will be less important, though. It would provide the elites with transformative authority over, well, just about everything. It's called Environmental, Social, and Governance, ESG Metrics, and it functions as the heart of Schwab's stakeholder capitalism model. ESG metrics are kind of a social credit scoring system, similar to the ones now being used by the Chinese government to control its vast population and economy. ESG measures a company based on its devotion to environmental and social justice causes, rather than solely by examining businesses and economic considerations, and then assigns businesses with a numerical or letter score. Can't get that in school with your kids, but boy, we can do it here. This is not to say that revenue, product development, and other more traditional concerns are no longer something that matters. Businesses are still expected to attempt to earn a profit, but ESG systems add a complicated set of additional criteria, so the investors, government officials, and financial institutions know who the good businesses are, and can identify and eventually destroy the bad ones.
