Not, knee jerk, carefully planned years ahead, just like 9/11.

Communism has a tendency to require greater levels of force in order to maintain state control.

And the the numbers financially are just getting too lopsided to maintain the uneven consumption for much longer. China will start to get a much larger share, and the bankers will have to go along with it, because of basic realities of math.

So the global military and economic control will shift to China, but before/during/after the primary economic model in places like the US will have to shift.

This means some people will have violent disagreements with the new control structure. So they are trying to lay the groundwork for a carefully monitored and controlled population now. Part of that is conditioning to not expect privacy, which is one main function of the TSA.

This is not a new situation or process really.

Your article seems like warmed-over John Birch Society material from the 60s. That is, you posit some world wide hidden planning or conspiracy that is set on degrading some Pure American state we've got now (or in the 60s, according to the Birch material), and substituting some centralized control system led by non-Americans.
