"There will come a time when it isn't 'They're spying on me through my phone' anymore. Eventually, it will be 'My phone is spying on me'"
~~ Phillip K. Dick

By Catherine Austin Fitts

Jon takes on a very serious topic this week. What is the chilling effect of living in a surveillance state? Indeed, our challenge is not just that there may be no privacy. Our challenge is that we are literally not allowed to speak freely. Among other examples, Jon talks about the Texas teenager who has been in prison since March as a result of making a joke while playing an on line video game.

Helping understand the psychology created by surveillance, can also help you understand how to navigate it with the minimum cost to you in terms of losing time, attention or the ability to exercise your freedom and creativity. Just as you carry an umbrella in the rain, we want The Solari Report to help you be able to put up your psychological and spiritual umbrellas and proceed to enjoy your life come what may.

As always, Jon's insights are original and profound, reflecting as rich an understanding of the phenomenon we are dealing with as exists today.

It's Jon's show this week - so no Money & Markets. Do post your questions for us on the blog!
