Not all of them.  But cooperating is a lot different than conspiring.
Do you want to argue that Reagan, not a TC member, was less a sup****ter
of elite interests than Carter or Mondale?

"Member****p is divided into numbers pro****tionate to each of its three
regional areas. These members include cor****ate CEOs, politicians of all
major parties, distinguished academics, university presidents, labor
union leaders and not-for-profits involved in overseas philanthropy.
Members who gain a position in their respective country's government
must resign from the Commission."

Uh oh, those elitist union leaders and non-profit NGO leaders are in on
subjugating the world.  I realize we're not talking about the Wobblies,
but still, I have my doubts about the nefarious nature of the TC.
