YPO was founded in 1950 in Rochester, New York, by manufacturer Ray Hickok, who was 27 years old when he became the head of his family's Rochester-based Hickok Belt, a 300-employee company.
YPO formed an exclusive editorial partnership with CNBC since 2012. Members are part of a CNBC-YPO Chief Executive Network.

POLITICS
The organization appears to advance the progressive Communist agenda. For example, they promote women to positions of power as they will be grateful, obedient traitors. Women can't compete on equal terms with men and require affirmative action. For example:
"In 2013, YPO and the Women's YPO Network partnered with Sheryl Sandberg and her organization, Lean In, to address the stalled percentage of women in business leadership roles in the past 10 years.
More than three decades after women became 50 percent of college graduates in the United States, women constitute just 5 percent of S&P 500 CEOs and only 19 percent of U.S. Congressional seats. As women who have beaten the odds in business, WYN members of YPO are in a strong position to influence the next generation of women leaders. WYN actively endorses #LeanInTogether's public awareness campaign, focusing on how men benefit from supporting women and achieve happier marriages, more successful children and better team outcomes -- and provides practical information on how men can do their part at home and at work."
CONCLUSION
If YPO were really about philanthropy and networking, they wouldn't need the veil of secrecy, would they? With those stiff initiation and membership fees, just to be blackmailed, you have to wonder what the members are getting out of it.
If ever you wonder why the world is the way it is, the answer is that we are controlled by Freemasonry, a satanic cult at war with God, nature and man. Football players take a Masonic Knee. The President constantly makes satanic Masonic hand signs. Politicians Left and Right are all Freemasons. Our natural leadership has been slaughtered in phony wars and the cowardly remnant has completely sold out. Humanity has been hijacked.
