| Catherine Austin Fitts of www.solari.com has described the current financial and political system as a tapeworm. I think she is right. Those in control, such as bankers and politicians, get us to work in support of this tapeworm system. The effect is that we end up working against ourselves and our own interests. For instance, central bankers destroy the purchasing power of the currency through increasing the money supply. The more of a currency in circulation, the less purchasing power each unit of currency has. This in turn drives up price if goods across the economy. Banks borrow money (our savings) at 2% and then loan those funds to the US Treasury for maybe 7%. They take our money as citizens and lend it back to us as taxpayers. These books have been chosen to give you an introduction to the world of the tapeworm and how we have all been sucked into it and have, for the most part, become dependent upon it. | ||
