<font face="{{{font}}}">“'''German B … <font face="{{{font}}}">“'''German Business News''': You dedicate a whole chapter to the Bilderbergers. What influence do the [[Bilderbergers]] really exert?<br/></br> </br>'''Jürgen Roth''': Compared to the "[[round tables]]" I described, their influence is rather small. What stands out among the Bilderbergers is not so much the secrecy or the strict isolation in luxury enclaves, but who the initiators are. They are US banks and US corporations, as well as the [[Deutsche Bank]]. At its core, it is a kind of [[neoliberal]] [[think tank]], whose members sometimes have a rather obscure biography. And they try, with more or less great success, to win over politicians who are well-disposed towards them and their goals. These in turn feel flattered when they are invited. And it is particularly revealing that only representatives of [[neo-liberalism]] are invited. Critics of capitalism will not be found there.<br/></br></br>'''German Business News''': Where is the line between real power and conspiracy theory? You criticize the network of the "Round Tables". What is behind it?<br/></br></br>'''Jürgen Roth''': There is no [[conspiracy theory]], only the conspiracy of a small, exclusive, European, economic and political elite against the social and democratic state. Their goal is clearly an ideological revolution, the widespread implementation of a free, untamed market economy. [[Ulisses Garrido]], the former Portuguese trade union leader and current director of the Education Department of the European Trade Union Confederation, is far from any conspiracy theory. He explained it to me like this: "What is to be achieved is a complete change in society, without the population having any say in the matter. It is undoubtedly a silent coup."<br/></br></br>[...]<br/></br></br>'''Jürgen Roth''': The purpose of this silent coup is also the [[privatization]] of all state enterprises, or state or municipal real estate. The Deutsche Bank demands this particularly strongly. Companies are sold off at a ridiculous price, often to the favoured of the ruling political system. Vital areas such as education, health and social services are privatized, as in Portugal or Greece. What is practiced here is the expropriation of national property. I don't even want to know how much criminally gained capital has been invested in Greece, Spain or Portugal.”uch criminally gained capital has been invested in Greece, Spain or Portugal.”
