In
a Tapeworm Economy, a small group of insiders consolidate political and economic power
at the expense of people, living things and our environment in a manner that destroys
real wealth. A Tapeworm Economy is one in which it is considered acceptable to make
money from doing things that cause the Popsicle Index to go down. Those who achieve
money and power by driving the Popsicle Index down are considered socially acceptable,
even admired. In investment terms, it is an economy with a negative return on investment.
It is parasitic in nature.
The first step in moving to financial intimacy is to reduce our complicity and
to navigate away from The Tapeworm. The second step is to identify opportunities to
reduce risks and shift power and resources in decentralizing ways to ourselves, our
family and our network and to a wider world that represent excellence and sound investments
of our time and money.
To take these steps, it helps to see The Tapeworm clearly and how Tapeworm political
and financial interests --- both overt and covert -- are woven throughout our lives,
our networks and assets.
Catherine Austin Fitts has collaborated with reporters, researchers, and publishers
globally to illuminate the financing and mechanics of The Tapeworm Economy. In the
process, she has published articles and recorded interviews. A selection is listed
below.
