The MacMaster video I posted the other day got a lot of views from readers, so I’ve decided to post another. This one is about a trend we’re seeing on so many fronts; the implementation of the World Economic Forum’s “You’ll Own Nothing and Be Happy” agenda. It’s been happening with software for some time, of course.
We’re being effectively forced to rent rather than buy software such as Excel, for example. Everyone has to buy a subscription these days, which is a nice gig for Microsoft. It now only has to do no more than pretend to add functionality and gets an annual source of revenue from me. I’ve resisted and tried open source alternatives, but they tend to be awkward so I’m thinking I may have to sign up for the real thing, even though the addition of new phony bells and whistles by the Microsoft monopolists make it slightly less functional every year.
We’re also seeing all kinds of ads on television and receiving all kinds of letters offering to buy my home. I’m guessing the supposed buyers are just fronts for BlackRock or some other Wall Street hog looking to purchase all our homes and rent them back to us at exorbitant rates. It’s another proof that property rights are the only thing that truly secure our freedom.
And, as The MacMaster notes, this effort to make us rent everything and control us has now reached into the car industry. Porsche wants him to rent his EV’s features:
Enjoy! The MacMaster is entertaining but he’s also making a very serious point; that we are being forced into a “Own Nothing and Be Happy” world and we need to resist wherever and however we can.

Perhaps we should all move our computers in the open software Lynix that many have forgotten but is still vibrantly living unheralded. And disconnect our home and office computers from the internet, and connect to the internet only from a dedicated internet computer for search and email purposes. Cumbersome, a bit, but the benefits would be enormous. Perhaps we can convince Elon Musk to join the fray by asking him to promote it on X.
It seems very reasonable to pilot test the "own nothing and be happy" policy goal of the WEF. A small group that owns many things would make an ideal sample group. Preferably a small group, spread out globally, with many assets to have "disowned". So the best sample group that comes to mind is...the WEF, it's leadership, staff, Board and members. Let's have their assets seized, move them into cute 650 sf apartments, or better yet, homeless encampment they have helped create do many of.
After, say, 15 years living like that they can provide us with excellent reports on how things worked out.
