Local Politics and Money Are the Last Line of Defense
“Each of us can say, ‘I am part of a great story and that story is not over yet—I have something to say about how it goes.” ~ Catherine Austin Fitts
By Catherine Austin Fitts
Daunted by the scale of corruption, the opaqueness of state bureaucracies, the immobility and unresponsiveness of democratic systems, and the lack of fairness, truth, and justice in government operations, many in the freedom movement have understandably but unwisely decided to opt out of dealing with government affairs.
Meanwhile, a policy deluge, originating in part from UN treaties, is trickling down into every level of government and other societal institutions. The policies are being implemented by nations, states, counties, cities, and so-called “regions,” while Hollywood, the media, and school curricula (from kindergartens to universities) promote related narratives.
These policies are having real-world impacts—bankrupting entrepreneurs, moving farmers off the land and fishermen off the sea, and turning public spaces into 15-minute-city panopticons. In short, as Dutch consultant-researcher and returning Solari guest Elze van Hamelen documents, “Mr. Global’s chickens are coming home to roost in your hometown.”
However, as Elze explains in this week’s interview, therein also lies our hope. The local level is where what is left of democracy works best, and it is where you have a chance of achieving real impact and influence. Elze’s prior research and contributions on topics such as food, farming, energy, and mind control have helped her understand that facing the local front of the Omniwar head-on is not only important but is a great antidote against the “hopelessness op.”
Elze wrote her new blockbuster report, Mr. Global in Your Street: Local Politics and Money Are the Last Line of Defense, to help you recognize the build-out of the control grid in your locality and to provide you with a practical and strategic manual for pushback. In this conversation, we go through a number of examples of everyday people who took responsibility by focusing on effective action within their own spheres of influence. Working with others who share a vision of living a free and inspired life—and a mission of doing everything in their power to achieve it—is a wonderful way to “find your tribe,” rebuild the culture, and have impact along the way.
