Are we living in that movie, one wonders?<\/p>\n<p>In real life \u2014 is there even such a thing anymore? \u2014 Klaus Schwab is the octogenarian head of the World Economic Forum (WEF), the NGO that hosts the annual cavalcade of global villains at Davos, Switzerland, held every January in perfect designer snow, with the\u00a0<em>raclette<\/em>\u00a0melting temptingly on the hearth, endless flutes of Bollinger R.D. Extra Brut making the rounds, and plenty of pretty young things on hand, only some of whom know a reverse repo from an\u00a0<em>Appenzeller Sennenhund<\/em>. Must be fun as all git-out.<\/p>\n<p>The Davos meeting is ostensibly called to\u00a0<em>improve the state of the world<\/em>\u00a0(ha!), and thereby inspires countless paranoid fever dreams in the minds of many who would prefer to be spared utopian social experiments, especially from plans drawn by billionaire bankers who view the present surfeit of mankind on this planet (some 7.6 billion) as cluttering up the joint \u2014 all these\u00a0<em>unnecessary<\/em>\u00a0hoi polloi filling the oceans with their yukky plastic, making navigation difficult for the Davos yachting crowd\u2026 or something like that.<\/p>\n<p>Klaus Schwab has been shockingly literal about his wished-for utopia, summing up his vision as, \u201cYou will own nothing, and you will be happy about it.\u201d Hmmm, no property\u2026 and then what? Logically, no corpus of contract law to regulate it? \u00a0Farewell pesky US constitution. (Let\u2019s face it, it\u2019s been falling apart lately, anyhow.)
