COVID Won't Stop Global Elites From Hobnobbing In Davos As Economic Forum Set For May

We doubt anybody was surprised when the "Climate-conscious" organizers of the World Economic Forum postponed the annual gathering in Davos for the second year in a row.

In a sign of just how important the Alpine confab is for the business and political elites who actually run the world to see each other face-to-face, the WEF has just released a statement affirming that this year's event will eventually take place...so long as all safety precautions can be taken.

Though we can't say for sure what the COVID numbers will look like then, the fact that it's only a few months away suggests the elites are ready to return to "Normally" living their lives - even if some of their restrictions on businesses and socializing remain intact.

As two year's worth of scandals featuring a rotating cast of politicians, public servants and even the chairman of a certain Swiss bank, can attest: the elites have largely ignored the restrictions they found unpalatable.

Why must Davos go on? We're pretty sure if you ask "The elites" who attend every year, they would be more than happy to tell you.

The World Economic Forum's Great Narrative Conference: "The good news is the elite across the world trust each other more and more... the bad news is that the majority of people trusted that elite less..." pic.

"At Davos a few years ago, the Edelman Survey showed us that the good news is that the elite across the world trust each other more and more, so we can come together and design and do beautiful things together. The bad news is that in every single country they were polling, the majority of the people trusted the elite less."
