Do not blame the government too much because they are almost as powerless as you and me. Powerless, because WE the Electors of our politicians are sheep.

Reread the paragraph from that article:
"In my view, it goes back to the fact that there are leaders in our world, beyond government, who are systematically manipulating various systems and structures in across the globe to control the population. Once viewed as wild conspiracy theories, this understanding is becoming not only self-evident, but publicly accepted knowledge as well. This latest case helps to illustrate how these ‘elite leaders’ are intentionally making moves that are not beneficial for the people whatsoever."

Example:
Do you think our government had much choice in appointing the previous governor of the bank, meaning Carney from Goldman, when they could have promoted a capable one (imho) from within.

As the author points out, we are slowly learning, but perhaps not fast enough to avoid another catastrophy.
