Decided by who? Well Schwab himself, of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Schwab promises a new world. A better world. A fairer world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You see Mao and Stalin, they were not true Marxists. They didn\u2019t have the best intentions. A Utopia is indeed possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And what evidence does Schwab present to support his new world order?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, let\u2019s quote Schwab\u2019s organisation in full so that we can fully understand his point of view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCapitalism as we know it needs to be reformed,\u201d the WEF writes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe growing discontent at the ideology that has created so much wealth and progress on the one hand, and yet so much inequality and instability on the other hand, is causing increasingly frequent social disruptions across the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe COVID-19 crisis has laid bare most of these dysfunctions, ranging from uneven access to healthcare, education, economic opportunities, and social progress, to growing inequality among and within nations and racial and ethnic groups. At the centre of these multiple crises lies the tension between privilege and meritocracy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s a lot to unpack in the above but the general theme relates to the existence of inequality being evidence capitalism has failed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?time_continue=201&amp;v=Se9rkxUK8zU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sky News Australia &#8211; Posted Aug 4, 2020 A disturbing movement to reform capitalism is gaining traction by those using the coronavirus tragedy to call for \u201cThe Great Reset\u201d.
