March 20, 2020 | Is the Virus Being Used to Usher-In a Police State in Different Parts of the World?

QUESTION: Dear Mr Armstrong
NOW in italy
– use of drones by municipalities to CONTROL citizen and their movements
– you are allowed to exit from home only for go to supermarkets, chemistry, or walk with yr dog. Police could stop you n check and if you are out of yr home for a walk, they bring you in prison, you will have a quick judgement and to pay 300euro, you will have a penal note and you will no more have the possibility to try to work in government or politic, you are permanently …signaled (as Scarlett letter!!)
– you can stay at max 200meters from home
– quarantene will be extended from 3rd april (present expected time to finish quarantene) till end of april
-schools closed until easter

WE ARE UNDER DICTATORSHIP!
ECONOMY DESTRYED, SOCIAL TISSUE DESTROYED, FREEDOM CANCELLED!! All in 2 weeks time!

Please… WHAT COULD WE DO, NOW?!!

ANSWER: I really do not know. There is a major movement toward authoritarianism. Perhaps because they know the system is collapsing and they are using this as the excuse. I had an exchange with a doctor who said they need the quarantine and I am spreading dangerous information. I asked him to looked at his pension funds. Are any left? He went silent. There is something wrong here. You do not destroy the world economy on this magnitude to even save 25,000 lives.

There is another agenda going on and they have even all the conspiracy people yelling this virus is understated. Very curious what is the end objective here. How many small business will be wiped out. Countless jobs are being destroyed. All the medical people on board, did you short the markets and move to cash on a tip?
