Hundreds of people rallied in Geneva and Davos Saturday to protest against the World Economic Forum, saying the elite gathered for it annual meeting are not qualified to fix the world’s problems.

Carrying banners reading ‘You are the Crisis’ and throwing snowballs, several hundred protesters marched to fences surrounding the heavily guarded Hotel Seehof in the Davos ski resort, where many world leaders and business people stay during the forum.

Protester Alex Heideger, a member of the Davos Green Party, said these were the people to blame for the economic mess.

“It’s the same people who came last year and said the world economic situation is fine, and now we’re in a financial crisis. Now it’s the taxpayer who has to solve the whole problem.

“It’s people like you and me who have to pay for it with their tax money,” he said.

   The economic crisis has probably been brought about by them spending billions of dollars on all those concentration camps, underground bases and FEMA trains with shackles and guillotines to cut our heads off with. Please don’t forget the industrial grade furnaces in each camp which apparently are there to cremate you after they are done striping your body of anything of any value!!!!!

   Although I live in Switzerland, I stayed at home and did not attend the protesting. But it’s nice to know some people in Switzerland thinks serious about the economic crisis. And I hope they should care about how social aid is used for something else – like refugee residents used by non-residents cooking in the kitchen and sleeping in. That’s something Swiss people should think about to cut the unnecessary costs. If they keep who is involved in such parasitic actions, the Swiss Army might not find some weapons stolen from their warehouses.

   I wish they understand the on-going Lebensraum stuffs like Nazis did. The targeted individuals of organized stalking are losing their rights and property. The government officers back up their activities as it will take extra resources from the hand of individuals. When there is no resource to gather or money for the government, the easiest way to get them is from the citizens properties. That is what Americans did on Native Americans just as well as Nazis did on Jews and other minority groups.
