Pressure from above and pressure from below is the aspect on how the Illuminati control the masses. G. Edward Griffin has written many articles on how the illuminati have infiltrated the European Masonic Lodges, and has demonstrated how "Pressure from above and pressure from below" works. For example, hypothetically speaking, A law abiding citizen living in New York may have the constant worry of being mugged late at night, (pressure from above) however, if that same citizen considers going out with a weapon, he/she then has to worry about getting caught, because guns are illegal to own in New York, so they're scared to excersise their second ammendment rights for fear of jail (pressure from below). So, the only people left who are armed are the police, and the criminals, and the descent, law abiding citizens get caught in the middle, creating a chilling effect on the people of the United States of America. This, then makes the people more easily managable.
