Industria alimentaria - reseña Histórica

The food industry is not just any industry. Food is the most essential item in existence. It is more important than gold, it is more important than any other sector in economics. Today people are dissociated from the importance of the food industry due to the agricultural revolution after the discovery of synthetic fertilizers. In the entirety of human existence, food was scarce. For the entirety of human existence, food was the most important item in everyone’s budget. The food industry was not our local candy supplier but our lifeline for existence. And if you control the trade and manufacturing of food or in other words you control the food industry then you control everything. In the entirety of human existence food industry was the pillar of power and control.

Todo empezó hace mucho tiempo.

It all started after the Neolithic revolution. The first excess of production was what created the first need for trade. If you are a stone age farmer and you produce more grain than you can eat you are in a food industry business. Then you would probably go down the hill to the fisherman’s village to trade some of your grains for fish. That is the first time in history that the food industry was beginning to emerge. Then the population expanded and the first city-states are formed. Then the first empires and so on.

Con el tiempo, la tierra pasó a ser propiedad de los señores, y el resto de los campesinos no eran más que esclavos.

En la época de Asiria, antes de Roma, ya existía la esclavitud y el comercio de alimentos a escala mundial. Desde China e India hasta el Mediterráneo. Luego, con la ayuda de la flota fenicia, por todo el Mediterráneo y la zona del Mar Negro. Ya en la antigüedad, el comercio estaba en auge.

Cuando Roma derrotó a los fenicios en las guerras púnicas, se hizo con el comercio.

En realidad entender la economía de Roma es entender la economía de Persia porque los romanos como tribu son de oriente medio no de Europa. Emigraron a Europa desde Asia Menor mediante la colonización y erradicando primero por genocidio a verdaderos pueblos europeos que vivían en la península de los Apeninos conocidos como etruscos. Trajeron con ellos la misma cultura y sistema que estaban presentes en los grandes imperios como Asiria y Persia, la economía de escala basada en el comercio y exes en la producción de alimentos controlada por un pequeño número de comerciantes y senadores y oligarcas, y la esclavitud. Luego erradicaron en genocidio a toda la gente (es decir, mujeres y niños también) que vivía en Cartage, se apoderaron de las rutas comerciales y luego pasaron a dominar el resto de Europa con un sistema que ya existía en Asia Menor y los grandes imperios de antaño. No hay que olvidar la historia. Sería difícil entender el mundo actual. Sólo tenemos lo que recordamos.

Los territorios exteriores sometidos en la Galia, Bretaña, España, Sicilia, Egipto, el norte de África y el litoral mediterráneo tenían que enviar grano a las familias nobles romanas, en concepto de impuestos y tributos. Normalmente, el impuesto sobre el grano era superior a lo que la tierra podía soportar. El mismo sistema romano se implantó en la Europa feudal tras el colapso del Imperio Romano de Occidente. El imperio se derrumbó, pero el dinero en las arcas permaneció, y la gente que dirigía el espectáculo simplemente cambió sus nombres por algo local o cristiano y se convirtieron en comerciantes, banqueros, nobles o cardenales.

La ciudad-estado de Venecia se apoderó de las rutas del grano, sobre todo después de la Cuarta Cruzada (1202-04). Las Cruzadas tenían un aspecto más importante que la religión. Y es recuperar de manos de los islamistas el control de las antiguas rutas comerciales romanas. La misma oligarquía que dirige el comercio en el imperio romano dirige ahora Venecia y su comercio. 

Las principales rutas comerciales venecianas del siglo XIII eran las terminales orientales de Constantinopla, los puertos del Oltremare (que eran las tierras de los Estados cruzados) y Alejandría (Egipto). Los productos procedentes de estos puertos se enviaban primero a Venecia y, desde allí, subían por el valle del Po hasta los mercados de Lombardía, o atravesaban los pasos alpinos hasta el Ródano y Francia. El comercio veneciano se extendía a la India, China y el imperio mongol en Oriente, y a Francia en Occidente.

Cerca del siglo XV, Venecia seguía siendo en gran medida un centro mercantil. Sin embargo, había empezado a extender parte de su comercio de cereales y otros productos al ducado borgoñón gobernante, cuya sede actual era Amberes. Este imperio, que incluía gran parte de la actual Francia, continuaba desde Ámsterdam y Bélgica hasta gran parte de la actual Suiza. 

Venetian-Lombard-Burgundian nexus, give birth to each of the food cartel’s six leading grain companies.

Estas compañías fundaron o heredaron una parte sustancial de las operaciones que tienen en la actualidad. En el siglo XVIII, las compañías británicas del Levante y de las Indias Orientales habían absorbido muchas de estas operaciones venecianas y extendido el comercio globalmente a las nuevas colonias de América y África. Sin embargo, no era más que la expansión de la misma élite gobernante. La oligarquía simplemente trasladó su centro de operaciones a la City de Londres (no a la capital de Inglaterra y del Reino Unido, conocida como Londres, gran diferencia) y expandió el comercio, la banca y la esclavitud a nivel mundial.

In the nineteenth century, the City of London-based Baltic Mercantile and Shipping Exchange became the world’s leading instrument for contracting for and shipping grain.

¿Y por qué se mudaron?

En el siglo XVII, hubo un conflicto entre los banqueros y la Casa de Estuardo. Los banqueros de Europa habían unido sus fuerzas y financiado a Guillermo de Orange, que invadió Inglaterra y se deshizo de los Estuardo, convirtiéndose en el rey Guillermo III de Inglaterra. Fue Príncipe soberano de Orange desde su nacimiento, Stadtholder de Holanda, Zeeland, Utrecht, Gelderland y Overijssel en la República Holandesa, y con la ayuda de los banqueros desde 1672 Rey de Inglaterra, Irlanda y Escocia.

A finales del siglo XVI, Inglaterra estaba en la ruina financiera.

Se gastaron las reservas de oro y plata, y la guerra civil se transformó en la guerra con Francia y los Países Bajos en los 50 años siguientes. La tierra estaba en mal estado, y Guillermo no podía pagar al ejército. Necesitaba el dinero y aceptó la "ayuda" de los banqueros, pero con un pequeño contrafavor.

Pidieron abrir un banco privado que tendrá el estatus del banco central.

A cambio, traerán oro como depósitos que serán las bases para imprimir dinero que se prestará al estado. Así fue como en 1694 se creó el Banco de Inglaterra, el primer banco central privado del mundo que tenía derecho a imprimir dinero (eventualmente de la nada) legalmente. Vuelve a leer esto.

Así fue como en 1694 se creó el Banco de Inglaterra, el primer banco central privado del mundo que tenía derecho a imprimir dinero (eventualmente de la nada) legalmente.

Inglaterra, como Estado, empezó a tomar los préstamos que se registraron como deuda nacional. Durante el período de 300 años, la oligarquía de Venecia se extendió para controlar el comercio y la banca en Francia, Alemania, los Países Bajos y, finalmente, Inglaterra. Y al controlar Inglaterra también controlaba sus colonias en ascenso.

Al trasladarse a Inglaterra, las familias del comercio y la banca de Venecia prácticamente se limitaron a mantener el poder y la riqueza que habían conseguido en la República Romana y expandieron su influencia por América, África y gran parte de Asia.

The administrative headquarters are changed, and that is today the City of London. The City of London county is not a city that contains the historic center and the primary central business district (CBD) of London. Now if you miss it read it again. The City of London is a country in London the same way the Vatican is a country in Rome. It is also a county of England, being an enclave surrounded by Greater London. It does not fall under the legal system of Great Brittan. The City of London is considered to be sui generis, which is Latin for “in a class by itself.” That it is one of the oldest self-governing local states in the world, with roots going back as far as medieval times when it was set up as a commune. Its right to exist predates that of parliament and even the Magna Carta of 1215, which was the charter of rights between King John and the barons, makes special reference to its “ancient liberties” and how they extend to all freemen of the realm. The status has afforded the jurisdiction of a Lord Mayor since the days of William the Conqueror. The City of London is a state within a state. El estado profundo de la civilización occidental si se quiere. El centro de control.

The City of London Corporation prefers to view itself as an autonomous jurisdiction that defends the rights of freemen. Freemen are those considered not to be the property of a feudal lord but who enjoy privileges such as the right to earn money and own land. This has meant that the freemen of the City have uniquely benefited from the right to trade as merchants or members of a guild or livery. They also control their own police force operated and paid for by the City of London’s own coffers and tax system. The City of London is a real British ‘’Crown” not the House of Windsor.

En realidad, Windsor es sólo el nombre del castillo, cuyo verdadero apellido es Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (en alemán: Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha). Lo cambiaron a Windsor para estar más en consonancia con la población local como medida de marketing. Antes de la Primera Guerra Mundial, era la familia de los soberanos del Reino Unido, Bélgica, Portugal y Bulgaria, y ramas de la familia siguen reinando en Bélgica, el Reino Unido y los demás reinos de la Commonwealth. Los cárteles comerciales y bancarios que dominaban Europa en la Edad Media, a diferencia de la realeza que sólo está ahí para el espectáculo, siguen gobernando con la misma forma de hacer negocios. Sólo han cambiado las sedes de los cárteles y sus empresas. Hoy en día una de las grandes sedes es la City de Londres.

This to us mortals is mostly unknown. In front of this structure is the City of London. For the ceremonial and public eyes is the ceremonial Lord Mayor that they chose themselves without an election. They are just formally under the House of Windsor but not in reality, and actually, I will correct myself, not even formally. Queen of England needs to ask for permission from the Lord Mayor if she wants to visit the city. And she can do that only in the civil uniform. The Lord Mayor of London is the City of London’s mayor and leader of the City of London Corporation. For instance, Sir Michael Bear and Sir Roger Gifford both were Lord Mayors of London. On both occasions, they welcomed the “Queen” in this manner. In full ceremonial uniform while the ‘”Queen” was in civilian dress, standing one step below.

Para ti, esto puede ser sólo una coincidencia o un espectáculo ceremonial irrelevante. Es porque hoy tú y la mayoría de la gente en las escuelas han estado aprendiendo que todo esto es sólo historia que no tiene nada que ver con el mundo moderno. Es sólo una reminiscencia del pasado y que hoy tenemos democracia y derechos humanos y leyes y que existen la ONU y la OMC al lado de los gobiernos por si acaso y otras organizaciones agradables que están ahí para ayudar al mundo y protegernos del mal. La verdadera realidad está invertida, y tu percepción de la realidad se basa en el lavado de cerebro propagandístico y la manipulación emocional de la ingeniería social escolar para las masas. La libertad de información es libertad de elección. Información errónea, percepción errónea, elección errónea con buenas intenciones.

El Banco de Inglaterra sigue en pie con toda su influencia y todas sus creaciones como la Reserva Federal de América y todas las demás corporaciones, multinacionales y empresas financiadas por bancos.

Let us look just 100 years ago to see how had food business and trade had been organized. The first company in the modern sense or one of the first was the East India Company. That is if we do not count The City of London Corporation. The Corporation’s first recorded Royal Charter dates from around 1067 and actually had its privileges temporarily stripped by a writ quo g under Charles II in 1683, but they were later restored and confirmed by Act of Parliament under William III (one and the same “banking boy” of Orange) in 1690, after the “Glorious Revolution”.

Poder y control y economía y política y guerra, todo es uno y lo mismo dirigido por una oligarquía. No hay alimentos o drogas o petróleo o la banca o cualquier otro tipo de negocio. Es todo lo mismo y dirigido por la misma gente. Si usted va lo suficientemente alto en la escala, se puede ver esto. El individuo medio echa un vistazo al supermercado y ve todo tipo de marcas diferentes y piensa que hay alguna concurrencia entre las distintas empresas. En realidad, se trata de una estafa destinada a engañarle para que piense eso. En realidad, una empresa alimentaria puede tener 100 marcas diferentes. Y diferentes empresas alimentarias pueden ser propiedad de las mismas personas que también son propietarias de otras empresas. These people can also be just partners to other people or just agents to their interests. Even if the same individuals or families do not own different companies, these people work together. They even historically marry each other. Marriage is just another business arrangement for them. I will digress from the food trade and look into one historical example that will show the true aspect of the Roman empire’s economic and political system based on military, slavery, excess in food production, trade, and exploitation controlled by the elite that has been enforced on a global scale now.

During the 17 and 18-century, merchant families of Europe had made a fortune in the far east trade. India had been conquered and colonized quite quickly, but China was a different story. Chinese people and states had been for a long time antagonistic to Europe and the west believing that all of the world’s evils have come from Europe. They had stuck to their own traditions and had closed country that did not enter into relations and trade with the west on the relevant scale. The big problem for the City of London merchants was how to pay for all of the goods that were coming from China. Chinese people and the elite were not interested in any goods coming from Europe. They did not want to buy anything. At that time China was ruled by The Qing dynasty, and they had implemented extremely high taxes on European goods that had any form of acceptance in China. At the time that created a significant deficit in the City of London’s trade with China. The only thing that was acceptable for trade and import to China was silver. The only thing that rulers of the Qing dynasty wanted to buy was silver and not all silver just one that is melted into bars. They did not want European silver coins either. Great Britain did not have enough silver to pay for all of the tea, silk, and porcelain for which it had an enormous market in Europe, so they had to buy it with gold and gold-backed currencies. The price of silver went up, and so all of the prices of goods coming from China went up. It created an inflationary spiral that slowly put Great Britain with all of its wars and expensive military into a bid budget deficit. Rulers needed to find a solution to this problem. They needed to find something that they can trade for all of the goods coming from China. And eventually, they did. They find out one excellent agricultural product that they can sell. The product obtained from a poppy plant used in medicine from ancient times called opium. The Mediterranean region has the earliest archeological evidence of human use with the oldest known seeds dating back to more than 5000 BCE in the Neolithic age with purposes such as food and aesthetics. In China, recreational use started in the 15th century but was restricted by its scarcity and price. Full blown opium ban in China began in 1729, yet was accompanied by nearly two centuries of ever-increasing opium use. The people had a hard life with extreme poverty, and one thing they liked that allowed them to escape from harsh reality was opium. Because opium was a hard addictive drug and once on it you become dependent on constant use in a situation where you cannot afford it in extreme poverty your morals go away. Opium use usually comes with criminal behavior and hard structural Chinese society could not afford it. So it was banned.

British East India Company after a couple of wars gained the power to rule in India and exercise a monopoly over opium production. To encourage slaves to cultivate the cash crops of indigo and opium with cash advances, and to prohibit the “hoarding” of rice they increase the land tax to 50 percent of the value of crops doubling East India Company profits by 1777. That also created the Bengal famine of 1770. Genocide by starvation of 10 million people. Bengal opium was highly prized, and the illegal drug trade exploded. The number of addicts in China exploded, and the trade deficit disappeared. Opium trade provided 15 to 20 percent of the entire British Empire’s revenue and simultaneously caused a scarcity of silver in China. The merchant families of Europe did good business. The ship sailed full of British merchandise to India. Then they unloaded that and loaded opium for the British-Chinese mafia network. In response, the Chinese Emperor took strong action to halt the import, including the seizure of cargo. Then the British navy came into the scene. And the British won Hong Kong and trade concessions. Then France and USA forced China to give the same concessions to them also. China was later also forced by war to legalize opium and began massive domestic production. By 1906, the country was producing 85 percent of the world’s opium, and a chunk of that was then exported to Indochina and other places. Most of us know this. We learn it in school. But what we did not learn in school was exactly what the school system does not want to teach you.

¿Cómo se llamaban los propietarios de la Compañía de las Indias Orientales? ¿Quiénes eran los señores de la droga, del comercio, de la guerra, etc.? ¿Qué ocurrió con su fortuna familiar? Si controlaban la agricultura y el comercio mundial hace apenas 100 años, ¿quién lo heredó y quién lo controla ahora? No hay comercio. No hay industria alimentaria, industria farmacéutica, ni ninguna otra industria. Es comercio, esclavitud, explotación, guerra, hambre, genocidio, política y economía todo en uno y todo lo mismo. Poder y control.

Back in the day, the House of Sassoon handled the trading of opium and other goods in India. The House of Jardine and Matheson handled distribution in China, and the House of Inchapes handled the shipping of these goods. House of Oppenheimer’s/Rhodes handled the gold and diamond mining business. The American operations were handled by the Sassoons, Jardine, Japhets, and the house of Rockefellers. The Houses of Rothschild with Warburg as his agents coordinated the banking aspect of this trade. The Houses of Rothschild had the controlling share in the East Indian company. Following Napoleon’s defeat, they had acquired complete control over the entire British economy and presumably East Indian company too. Nathan Mayer Rothschild was aware of the outcome of the Battle of Waterloo a full day before Wellington himself thanks to its intelligence network. Nathan controlling England funded Wellington’s army, whereas James (Jacob), his own brother, operated out of France, and funded Napoleon’s army. It was war orchestrated by the same coffer and of course, being the first one informed of the result of the war he began selling the consuls. It was the same design that the selling on the market looked like as a sign of the British losing the battle, resulting in widespread panic in the markets, and a vast panic sell-off was initiated. Nathan after inducting the selloff began secretly to acquire the consuls.

By the time word of the real situation of British victory came, the market rose up even higher than its previous levels, only this time most of it was already in Nathan’s hands with a return of approximately 20:1 on his investment making him the owner of almost entire British economy including East India Company. In 1815, Nathan Mayer made the following statement:

“I care not what puppet is placed upon the throne of England to rule the Empire on which the sun never sets. The man who controls Britain’s money supply controls the British Empire, and I control the British money supply.”

The business partnership of trading opium with China was also offered to the families that were the center of the new rising American oligarchy. That is how for example John Jacob Astor, got his opium trade business. His American Fur Company purchased ten tons of Turkish opium, then shipped the contraband item to Canton. All American families that were part of the opium trade had become an integral part of the new American aristocracy with their leading partner in Europe. The Rothschild family and the City of London. In the US this trading cartel has even founded its own secret society at Yale University. The internal circle of interest of this brotherhood was defended by a cartel of trading families like Taft, Russell, Bush, Rockefeller, and Vanderbilt. Yale College itself was founded by Elihu Yale opium trader, slave trader, and President of the East India Company settlement in Fort St. George, at Madras. Skull and Bones secret society was founded in 1832 by William Huntington Russell (cousin of Samuel Russell) and Alphonso Taft. The secret society’s alumni organization, the Russell Trust Association, owns the society’s real estate and oversees the organization. In 1823, Samuel Russell established Russell and Company for the purpose of acquiring opium in Turkey and smuggling it to China. Russell and Company bought out the Perkins(Boston) syndicate in 1830 and moved the primary center of American opium smuggling to Connecticut. Many of the European and American fortunes were made in the China (opium) trade. One of Russell and Company’s, Chief of Operations, in Canton was Warren Delano, Jr., grandfather of Franklin Roosevelt. Other Russell partners included Perkins, Sturgis, and Forbes, families. And they all did that with a permit from East India Company as a partner in trade. As a result of this Chinese society suffered total degradation. In 1906, 90 percent of people in Shanghai were addicted to opium. Drugged from opium masses of people spent their days in opium dens lying in stupors incapable of any work.

Trading in opium is technically a drug trade like any other big pharma drug trade. The same people who made fortunes on drugs are the same people who make fortunes on cancer treatment drugs. The difference today is that we have synthetic heroin and your doctor prescribes it for cancer pains, and if you want to get something outside of the ‘’legal” business you will get a jail sentence from the same people who made the opium trade back in the day. Under the Rockefeller drug laws, for example, the penalty for selling two ounces (57 g) of heroin, cocaine, or cannabis or possessing four ounces (113 g) or more of the same substances, was a minimum of 15 years to life in prison, and a maximum of 25 years to life in prison. The Rockefeller program drew intense opposition from civil rights advocates, who claimed that they were racist, as they were applied inordinately to African-Americans and, to a lesser extent, Latinos. One main criticism of these drug laws was that they put young minority males and females behind bars for carrying small amounts of drugs on them. In 2002, at age 46, Meile Rockefeller was arrested for protesting the Rockefeller drug laws. She was escorted by her brother, Stuart Rockefeller, and was backed by other members of the family including her grandfather’s brother, Laurance Rockefeller. I can guess that some of the John spoiled brats did not learn the full extent of Social Darwinism, but I am more inclined to think it is just a new „washing of the hands,” we are not racist sort of speech propaganda.

En la actualidad, las seis empresas cerealistas privadas surgieron de la centenaria ruta comercial de cereales Mesopotámica-Romana-Veneciana-Burgundia-Suiza-Amsterdam, que hoy se extiende por todo el mundo.

The “Big Six” grain cartel companies are New York-based Continental, con sede en Minneapolis y Ginebra Cargill; con sede en París Louis Dreyfus; São Paulo (Brasil) y las Antillas Neerlandesas, Bunge y Born; con sede en Lausana (Suiza) André; y con sede en Hamburgo (Alemania) Archer Daniels Midland/Töpfer. 

No emiten acciones públicas.

They don’t have an annual report.

Son tan reservados como cualquier banco o servicio de inteligencia gubernamental.

Two of these companies, Continental and Cargill, control 45-50% of the entire world’s grain trade.

Besides the grain ten to twelve pivotal companies, assisted by another three dozen, run the entire world’s food supply. They are vital components of the Anglo-Dutch-Swiss food cartel, which is grouped around Britain’s City of London.

The food and raw materials cartel has complete control over the entire world grain trade. But it also controls dairy, oil and fats, meat, fruits and vegetables, sugar, and all forms of spices. The entire world’s food trade and food production, and the processing and distribution of every aspect of it are controlled.

Estas empresas actúan aún hoy como un cártel alimentario. La oligarquía ha desarrollado cuatro regiones para que sean los principales exportadores mundiales de casi todo tipo de alimentos. Estas cuatro regiones son la Unión Europea, especialmente Alemania y Francia; las naciones de la Commonwealth británica de Canadá, Australia, Nueva Zelanda, la República de Sudáfrica; Argentina y Brasil en Iberoamérica y EEUU.

These four areas have a population of, at most 12% of the world’s population. The rest of the world, with 88% of the population is dependent on food exports from those regions.

Every small country that has grain, dairy, or other surpluses and wants to export them. It will encounter a problem. The cartel’s four exporting regions were given a monopoly in a brutal manner, with different regulations by the U.N., so that much of the rest of the world was thrust into enforced starvation.

If some of the other nations want to develop the oligarchy will not sell them seeds, for example, fertilizer or any help in water management or any form of foreign investment would not be implemented. So when Chinese companies start to invest in this area of Africa, for example, it turns into World War 3 because the oligarchy wants those regions under population control and any other form of control. They don’t want those regions to become self-sufficient so they depend on foreign aid and remain in the status of vassals states. Do as told and import or starve to death. At the same time, these Anglo-Dutch-Swiss food cartel is reducing the export regions’ self-sufficiency as well as reducing all the exporting countries like the U.S. to a state of servitude as well. During the last couple of decades, millions of farmers in Argentina, Europe, Canada, the U.S., and Australia have also been destroyed by the same companies.

Por ejemplo, en 1982 había en Estados Unidos 600.000 criadores independientes de cerdos. Hoy, esa cifra es inferior a 150.000.

Para el ciudadano medio, cinco o seis empresas que controlan todo el comercio mundial de cereales es difícil de creer. Pero la verdad es que todas estas empresas trabajan juntas. Son un gran cártel. No compiten entre sí. Cada una de ellas tiene su parte del globo que controlar, y coordinan sus asuntos con otras y con la oligarquía político-bancaria. No voy a analizarlas todas, pero veamos la más grande para que podamos tener una idea de cómo funcionan estas cosas.

The biggest one is Cargill.  It is founded shortly after the American Civil War by William Cargill, a Scottish immigrant, and sea merchant. He bought his first grain elevator in Conover, Iowa. After that William Cargill expanded and bought grain elevators all along the Southern Minnesota Railroad, at a time when Minnesota was becoming an important shipping route. However, Cargill’s largest opportunity began when he purchased elevators along the line of James J. Hill’s Great Northern railroad line. The line went west of Minneapolis, as far as North and South Dakota. Hill managed to do this because he was the business partner of Ned Harriman (father of Averell Harriman), who was the economic and business agent for Prince Edward, and later King Edward VII. With a special rebate system and other arrangements, Hill’s rail line helped build the Cargill operation. At that time Cargill was big but not part of the big oligarchy. It was just another bigger company like many others. It firm nearly went under twice. William Cargill, Jr., the son of company founder Will Cargill, made bad investments in Montana, and between 1909 and 1917, Cargill hovered on the brink of bankruptcy. What happened was that the British capital came in to rescue the company. William Cargill had a daughter, Edna, who married John MacMillan. MacMillan’s family reorganizes pumps in the money and starts to run the entire Cargill. John Hugh MacMillan II (1895-1960) was the director of Cargill from 1936 until 1957. He was also Knight Commander of Justice of the Sovereign Order of St. John. Secret society order controlled by the global aristocracy assorted around the Anglo-Dutch monarchy. Whitney MacMillan, chairman of Cargill from 1976 until 1994, was educated at the exclusive British-modeled Blake School (where the chairman of General Mills was also educated), and then Yale University. In another word, they were loyal to the oligarchy.  Cargill also almost went under during the 1929 U.S. stock market crash, and the ensuing Great Depression. Only after that, the thing started to change. When you become part of the ruling system, you do not go bankrupt. You are too big to fail. It was still not big enough and what happened next is what defined Cargill as a “chosen one” to rule the food trade in America. There is nothing in history books about what was going on to Cargill Co. during the depression, 1865-1945. It is a secret, but we know what happened. It was chosen to be saved by the oligarchy and used as a mechanism for control of the grain trade in one of the four regions.

One force came to the rescue: John D. Rockefeller’s Chase National Bank, which sent its officer John Peterson to help run Cargill. Peterson became Cargill’s top officer.

Now if you are bankrupt and the big bank came with finances and rescues you and sends people to run your company, then who really owns the company? You or the people that give you money from the bank? Then the way of conducting business at Cargill changed. It was not just one more regular let’s make the business company. During the mid-1930s, Cargill started to use cut-throat tactics. In 1937, corn was a limited commodity. During 1936 crop had been a failure. Cargill purchased every possible corn future, to the tune of several millions of dollars, and organized a squeeze on the market. The Chicago Board of Trade directed Cargill to auction some of its futures to relieve the squeeze. Cargill refused and was expelled from the Board of Trade. The U.S. secretary of agriculture accused Cargill of trying to destroy the American corn market. And that is exactly what they wanted to do so that they can later buy it all with the help of the bank and create control of the entire corn market. With the help of the Chase National Bank from the time of bankruptcy in the great depression, they started to expand globally in a very short time. In 1953, Cargill set up Tradax International company in Panama to run its global grain trade. In 1956, it set up Tradax Genève, Switzerland. Thirty percent of Tradax is owned by old-line Venetian-Burgundian-Lombard banking families, particularly the Swiss-based Lombard, Odier, and Pictet banks. The investor for Tradax is the Geneva-based Crédit Suisse, which has been involved frequently in drug-money laundering. In 1985, the U.S. government accused Crédit Suisse and other large banks of laundering $1.2 billion in illegal drug money to the First National Bank of Boston. In 1977, Cargill’s engagement in a “black peseta” laundering operation at Cargill’s offices in Spain was also revealed. Cargill has been regularly cited for “blending” that is, adding foreign matter to its grain too. But it was chosen to be the controlling company of one part of the world food market by the ruling elite, and that is it. Today Cargill has expanded into every major crop and livestock on the face of the earth, in over 60 countries. It has also expanded into coal, steel, waste disposal, and metals and runs one of the 20 largest commodity brokerage firms in the United States, which is larger than most of the Wall Street brokerage houses.

Cuando la gente habla de la industria alimentaria, piensa en Coca-Cola y Nestlé. Nestlé es la más grande sobre el papel porque la oligarquía no quiere que la gente normal sepa cuál es la forma real de hacer negocios. Esa es la razón por la que, por diseño, estas empresas como Cargill y otras no emiten acciones públicas, ni informes anuales. Lo único cierto es que no sabemos cuál de ellas es la más grande, y seguro que no es Nestlé. Como he escrito antes, estas empresas son más secretas que cualquier compañía petrolera, banco o servicio de inteligencia gubernamental.
