7. Maybe they protect themselves with water filters, organic food grown on their farms

and access to the best quality medical care. But how do you defend yourself from all air, water, soil, food and infectious diseases unless you live in a bubble. *Atrazine, the widely used killer herbicide used in the US is also is permitted in Australia. Even though Swiss-made Atrazine is banned in the EU, somewhere in this material it's noted that this has been got around by developing another herbicide product for use in Europe- as corporations are known to do.

Last January (2015) the Head of the Annual (Global Elite) Economic Forum (Robt. Johnson?) in DAVOS, Switzerland said hedge funders and corporations would have to leave the US and places like England if matters (protests) got too bad.
Many wealthy, esp. financiers have already purchased private large homes, farms and airstrips for their Gulfstream jet aircrafts that can seat 20-30 people-- in NEW ZEALAND, if and when things get too uncomfortable.
There was an OP about this Davos Economic Summit and comments about leaving on DU, and also a video of the official discussing matters. I was astounded. They are many steps ahead and have massive resources.

There are also immense underground bunker 'cities' for the uber rich, and giant MULTI-HOME SHIPS for the superwealthy that can cruise around the world to avoid unrest, taxes and pollutants (I presume). Many of the residences on these immense aircraft carrier plus size floating ship communities are 6,000 sq. ft. This is not crackpot, conspiracy fear stuff, I've seen a bit of it in the news and Thom Hartmann has mentioned it a couple times, very mildly.
