666. Why Does the World Economic Forum Think They Know More Than You?
Episode 666
Thursday, 5 February, 2026
When unelected global elites claim they know what's best for everyone, individual freedom and personal responsibility are often the first things sacrificed. Once a year, the world's most powerful politicians, CEOs, and global influencers gather at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, to discuss economic policies that affect billions of people — despite having no democratic mandate to do so. Their proposals often sound compassionate, but they reveal a deeper belief that ordinary people can't be trusted to make decisions for themselves. In this episode of The Way the World Works, we break down what the World Economic Forum really is, why its ideas about central planning, property ownership, and global governance are so dangerous, and how these agendas undermine free markets and individual liberty. We explore why "expert-led" solutions fail, how global elites are disconnected from everyday life, and why outsourcing responsibility to powerful institutions always comes at a cost. If freedom depends on personal responsibility, what happens when that responsibility is handed over to unelected global planners? What You'll Learn in This Episode: What the World Economic Forum actually does — and what it doesn't Why global central planning fails in practice How elite-driven policies disconnect from real people's needs Why individual responsibility is essential to a free society How free markets outperform global economic control Timestamps: 0:00 What Is the World Economic Forum? 1:15 Why Elites Think They Know Better 2:45 The Danger of Global Central Planning 4:10 "You Will Own Nothing" and Why That's Scary 6:25 Who Really Benefits From Global Control 8:30 Why Free Markets Work Better 10:05 Individual Responsibility vs. Global Governance 12:40 The Real Antidote to Elite Control 👍 Like this video if you believe people should control their own lives 🔔 Subscribe for more values-based conversations about freedom and economics 💬 Comment below: Should unelected global organizations shape economic policy?
