This scheme is being executed by long-planned, intelligent design, the audacity and scope of which is difficult for the mind to encompass.<\/p>\n<p>Included are all financial assets and bank deposits, all stocks and bonds; and hence, all underlying property of all public corporations, including all inventories, plant and equipment; land, mineral deposits, inventions and intellectual property. Privately owned personal and real property financed with any amount of debt will likewise be taken, as will the assets of privately owned businesses which have been financed with debt.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Over the course of the book, the author describes a 50-year process by which ownership of shares in public companies, and all debt collateral has been \u201cdematerialized\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In the olden days, you invested in a company \u2013 they gave you physical share certificates \u2013 and you were now part owner of the company.
