The Passing of David Rockefeller by Gary North from Specific Answers

The Passing of David Rockefeller

David Rockefeller was a very nice evil man. So was his father.
He always thought he was doing the right thing. Maybe once in a while he did something really good. I just can't think of anything.
Rockefeller was a big promoter of modern art. So was his brother Nelson. The brothers promoted an artistic rebellion against the common man's taste. The more that a typical citizen would regard a piece of art as ugly or silly or meaningless, the more money a Rockefeller would pay for it. Americans love Norman Rockwell's paintings. The Rockefellers did not. I can think of no one who better qualified as the emperor with no clothes in the field of painting and art. Doubt me? Click here. His mother was a co-founder of the Museum of Modern Art. When it comes to modern art, I am in agreement with E. Michael Jones' thesis and book title for his book on Picasso: Degenerate Moderns.

He created the Trilateral Commission, which promotes globalism without meaningful national borders. Fortunately, the whole globalist vision is coming undone. He lived to see Brexit.
He was a big promoter of the Council on Foreign Relations, beginning in 1941. He was Chairman for 15 years. It is the heart of the American establishment. It is, as Dam Smoot labeled it in 1960, the invisible government.
He was a multinational banker. The New York Times obituary of him pointed out that he was not a good banker.
Some faulted him for spending so much time abroad. He was accused of neglecting his responsibilities at Chase and failing to promote aggressive, visionary managers. Under his leadership, Chase fell far behind its rival Citibank, then the nation's largest bank, in assets and earnings. There were years when Chase had the most troubled loan portfolio among major American banks.
He earned a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Chicago at the age of 25 in 1940. I knew a man who once visited his office. He noticed a copy of Ludwig von Mises's book, The Theory of Money and Credit (1912), on one of the bookshelves. He mentioned that to Rockefeller. Rockefeller dismissed the book as being old-fashioned. He didn't say why it was not a good book. He just thought it was old-fashioned. He did not have an analytical mind.
He spent his whole life flying around and visiting important people in foreign nations. He had a list of something like 150,000 people he had met. Basically, the man was a multibillionaire gadfly.
He once paid a visit to my friend Paul Weyrich, the conservative political activist. He had donated to Weyrich's non-profit think tank. That kept Weyrich from being critical of him. It was chump change for Rockefeller, but was a large donation for Weyrich. Weyrich didn't like his politics, but he figured he might as well keep quiet and get more donations. It was a smart strategy on Rockefeller's part. He did it with more than one conservative Beltway think tank. He did not buy praise; he bought silence. It was money well spent.
Here is my account of that meeting, which I published in 2011.
Back around 1988, Rockefeller and an assistant -- the son of a very famous foreign policy expert -- interviewed Paul Weyrich of the Free Congress Foundation. He wanted to know which figures in the conservative movement were hostile to him. Weyrich mentioned the John Birch Society. "Who else?" he asked. "The hard-money movement," Weyrich replied. "What's that?" Rockefeller asked. The assistant said, "I'll brief you later."Rockefeller was intrigued. "Who are they?" Weyrich mentioned me and Larry Abraham. (Thanks, Paul. He blew our cover.) "What are they saying?" Weyrich accurately replied: "They are saying that you and your big business colleagues are making deals behind the Iron Curtain, so that when full trade resumes, you will already be set up there."
Weyrich reported to me and to Abraham that Rockefeller replied, "They're right," and then went on at some length to describe their efforts. Within a few months, the Berlin Wall went down. In 1991, the USSR committed suicide.
Weyrich told me, "I wish I had turned on a tape recorder. It was an amazing revelation."
So, I will not miss David Rockefeller. I suppose I should speak well of the dead, but I'm going to make an exception in this case. I don't want to lie. I am also not going to stay silent. He wasted his time. He wasted his money. He wasted his life. He was my favorite modern example of Mark 8:36. "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?"
When it comes to David Rockefeller, as well as his eugenics-promoting father and his brothers, I agree with the pillow that sat on the couch in the living room of Alice Roosevelt Longworth: "If you can't say something good about someone, sit right here by me."
