 Want
to understand where our jobs, small farms and small businesses are going? Want to
know what or who is draining us and our communities?
The Solari Opportunity is about reversing the negative
economy into a positive economy, one person, one family, and one community at a time.
To see this opportunity, it is necessary to understand how we allow our current financial
system to drain our families and neighborhoods, and deplete our natural resources.
In a tapeworm economy a small group of insiders centralize political and economic
power at the expense of people, living things and the environment, in a manner that
destroys real wealth. A tapeworm economy is one in which it is considered acceptable
to make money from our popsicle
index going down. In investment terms, it is an economy with a negative return
on investment. It is parasitic in nature.
The way an actual tapeworm operates is to inject its host with a chemical that
makes the host crave what is good for the tapeworm and bad for the host. So the Tapeworm
Economy is adept at using media and education and numerous financial incentives to
get us acting against our own strategic interests and instead supporting and depending
on the Tapeworm.
The symptoms of the Tapeworm are many - narcotics trafficking that targets our
children, runaway exploitive and predatory corporate practices such as the patenting
of life, terminator seed and the destruction of our topsoil and food supply, fraudulent
inducement of debt to homeowners, students and consumers, suppression of knowledge
and renewable energy technology, criminal mismanagement of government credit and resources,
black budget operations and the manipulation of currency, financial and precious metal
prices and markets. These practices introduce organized crime throughout all aspects
of our lives... these transactions drain our families and neighborhoods on a daily
basis – much like a tapeworm drains its host.
As we understand the history of these drains in our lives – who is doing
them and how we are complicit – we begin to understand the power of the opportunity
to transform them in a manner that is safe and profitable for ourselves and those
we love.
As we begin to pull our resources out of the Tapeworm, and learn to invest our
time and assets in building the world we want, by building
real wealth and financial liquidity outside the Tapeworm, and by raising our popsicle
index without putting others' at risk, the Tapeworm stronghold will weaken and the
excellence of local living economies and diversified enterprises will prosper worldwide
– one neighborhood, one enterprise and one investment at a time. |
