That isn't how it works, my friend.
First, let me say that I am not Anti-Mason. The fact is I have been giving great consideration to approaching my local lodge (in Parrish, AL.) when
I get out of the Army. This gives me time to strive to be a better man than I am now, not that I find myself to be a bad man, and get settled back in
Alabama where I wish to reside other than around the world where the Army takes me.
However, the question asked us to SUSPEND such thoughts and in a way "Invent" how such a behind the seens Upper Level would work.
The first step is to create a Face, or to infiltrate an existing good will and use it for your Face. Obviously, in this example, we'll be calling
the Mason's the Face. Just to add spice and use names we'll call the Upper the Illumanati. Fun, eh? Now I feel like I'm writing some historic
fantasy entrigue novel and can get really creative.
So, this Illumanati was a group in Secrecy. They had two levels. Upper and Lower. These two levels were seperate, but held the same views. Fact
is, the Upper created the view and dispensed it to the Lower.
For some reason (persecution) they had to go underground. Now, you say, they were already secret. Yes, they were. Secret in what they do, how
they do it, but not in who they were. Of course, the Upper was very secretive because it they were targeted the Whole falls apart. But your normal,
run of the mill Illumanati was just Joe, The Illumanati.
So, people think things (wrong or right) and get angry at the Illumanati. They strike what they can see (the Lower) and the rest (the Higher)
withdraw and look for a way to emerge at a safer time.
The Upper decide the best way is to hide in plain sight until it is safe to be seen again. They target a group of Good Will, thus Enter the
Masons.
They flood the Mason's with membership of there Upper (and any Lower that may have fled to safe areas with only loose connections to the
Illumanati. Leave as little a trail as you can to be followed.) Obviously, some of these guys are very good at politics and advancement, hence being
in the Upper. Therefore they strive in the structure of Masonary and begin ascending to higher ranks. When enough get control, they set up an
"Invisible Council", they now have enough people to enact change and enough to ensure who they desire rises to join there ranks. THIS is where it
would begin.
Getting to the High Level here still means little. They still bring in Non-Illumanati to not tip there hand. But they keep the sway of power in
favor of there Illumanati. This allows Control of the Organization, which becomes important. However, the Masons (including the Illumanati within)
can not in any way tarnish the Image of the Face (Mason's).
So, you put your Upper's in charge of each new 'Project', like each Charity that gets set up. This allows them to control the money and where it
goes, thus creating a Siphon that the Lowers don't know about. Uppers get placed in all important positions.
Important point here, these Uppers are just Illumanati hold Mason positions so as to be able to move things behind the scenes. Most of these are
actually LOWER ILLUMANATI, and may not even know WHY they are taking such actions.
This, in effect, gives you THREE LEVELS. Mason (most held to middle and low status). LOWER ILLUMANATI, which holds most but not all important
positions in the Higher Mason. Then the Braintrust, your Upper Illumanati. These are the decisions makers and planners. These are the real Upper,
and there are very few of these).
So, your Uppers Illumanati would want to acquire things that continued to fund there means. Banks, properties, things of that nature. They would
need places they controlled to hold such secretive meetings and take care of different business. They would possibly set up a few more fronts, places
to launder money, and other places to make it difficult to follow any trails. They would then start acquiring some Law Enforcement and Politicians to
protect them.
The Siphoned Money and moves are where the Control comes into play. The Illumanati might never give a directive to the Masons DIRECTLY. But the
Good Deeds are having money taken off the top (in this scenario) to fund Bad Things. It is inadvertant help, given willingly and proudly.
This is done by those Lower Level Illumanati, the ones that handle the actual monies and management. They place the money where they are told,
sometimes that is all they are told.
Now the Brain Trust can fund itself, pay off bribes, and increase it's wealth base (thus increasing the Power Base).
So, If the Illumanati wanted to buy off the President of the US and some congressmen so as to shape laws allowing certain means of Spying on your
own People (US Citizens) they would increase funds by setting up their Faces to run more Charity Drives.
The Masons would run the Drives. The Middle (Lower Illumanati) collect, fudge books, launder and get the money where it needs to go. The higher
then use the money to buy gifts or give out cash payments in highly untraceable ways to the Players they are trying to purchase.
Anyways, that's how I would do it if I were bent on taking over the world and had the resources to get started.
