“Today, four companies produce 84 percent of our beef. Four companies control the world’s grain market. Six corporations control 90 percent of the media. Ten companies control everything you buy. Three companies completely dominate the farm equipment market. Fourteen companies control the entire global auto industry. You get the idea. This extends to many different industries where giant global corporations are gobbling up everything in sight. How did we get to this point?” ~ Patrick Wood, “Monopoly Power Is Growing In Response To Sustainable Development”

By Catherine Austin Fitts

Technocracy is a global system designed to implement central resource management and control through rules-based micromanagement. The growth of technocracy is made possible by digital systems and software, artificial intelligence, and the “one way mirror” managed through 24/7 surveillance by intelligence and enforcement agencies—funded by our tax dollars.

The beauty of technocracy is that it can be integrated into a wide variety of political and corporate systems. While the U.S. promotes the notion of markets and democratic process, our systems can be converted to technocracy with the integration of an endless stream of government, banking, and corporate rules and algorithms that manage and control our daily lives and infrastructure. The same process is rolling out in the one-party system of China and also via mind-numbing regulation by multiple coalition governments and institutions of the European Union.

Seeing and documenting this process is challenging. It requires integration of complex operations across many different industries and governments—and it is protected by extraordinary secrecy afforded to the military-industrial complex and the central banks.

Despite the challenges, publisher and economist Patrick M. Wood has succeeded in making the technocracy invasion visible. Patrick is the author of Technocracy Rising: The Trojan Horse of Global Transformation and Technocracy: The Hard Road to World Order. Technocracy Rising is listed in the Solari Report Best Books for 2018 and Best Books for 2019 (login with your Solari Report password) published in our last two Annual Wrap Ups.

Familiarity with technocracy is essential knowledge for understanding and navigating the modern world. Among other things, technocracy is the process by which small businesses and enterprises are driven out of business, intentionally creating larger market share and monopoly profit margins for large corporations. Many of us are managing the increased workload and expense of growing technocracy. Understanding the phenomenon makes a difference in managing the regulatory game.

Our movie is the classic Gaslight, which Patrick refers to in our discussion about technocracy. Gaslighting is “a form of psychological manipulation that seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or in members of a targeted group, making them question their own memory, perception, and sanity. Using persistent denial, misdirection, contradiction, and lying, it attempts to destabilize the victim and delegitimize the victim’s belief.” (Wikipedia).

Gaslighting is one of the tactics that the media and intelligence agencies use to outwit individuals who stand in the way of technocracy. We will talk about this more in Deep State Tactics 101 that I will cover later this month on The Solari Report.

  1. That was the best interview and summation of our world. Also another reason why I no longer support environmental groups they are pawns in a global scheme but unaware. It explains the social engineering of the Democrats and the use of entrainment and propaganda through identity politics and more. The insidious We the People and the entrainment of sheep. The more information and knowledge I gather being a Solari subscriber I become more an observer in discussions. I was impressed with his integrity and faith. An example of holding the culture, Catherine I am more than grateful its a blessing!

    1. Sue:

      So glad you listened. While dealing with the regulatory onslaught of technocracy is maddening, it is easier to navigate successfully if you see it for what it is. Critical intelligence for small businesses and professionals in this day and age.

      We turtle ever forward!

  2. Very enjoyable interview. I buy most of my food from our Amish market open Thursday to Saturday in Easton, MD. The market has real people offering real products free of all the nasty stuff. The nomenclature of this presentation reminds me of the mind control/PC/diversity at DC electric company. After 35 years service, I was known as the Chemist who says out load what everybody is thinking.

    1. I love markets. Just walked through an open Thai farmers market along the coast yesterday. I had never seen so many different varieties of sea food in my life. All cash and carry. Thriving. I am sure some smart phone operators are trying to figure out how to engineer technocracy in.

  4. This was a great interview and I am happy to hear you are in Thailand. I lived there for four years until last December. North Thailand is also wonderful.

    Not sure if you have heard of Jacques Ellul, who wrote The Technological Society in 1964. He was a French professor of law, but also a biblical scholar and a pastor. It’s an excellent early description of technocracy. He influenced Ivan Illich, who wrote Deschooling Society /his most famous work/ but also Shadow Work in 1970s which describes the phenomenon you and Mr. Wood discussed.

    In any case, in the series of books Ellul describes technocracy in a very detailed way, but never discusses WHERE technocracy comes from. It’s a bit of a glaring omission given his detailed treatment of the subject, so I researched this when I was in college for a term paper. Well, it can be argued that in Ellul’s view, technocracy is actually the work of the devil working in the world. This also touches on the strictly materialistic paradigm of technocracy that you and Mr. Wood talked about at the end of the conversation.

    Thank you for everything that you do.

    Safe travels!

    2. Andrzej:

      I have not heard of Ellul – value learning of him.

      I am so glad you found this interview useful. Given the worlds and cultures you work across, you are uniquely positioned to see technocracy unfold around the globe!

  6. I have spent over 50 years, after the Kennedy assassinations, along with Paul Volcker, testifying on TV, that “the standard of living in the U.S. must be decreased” trying to uncover what has gone wrong in our great country, now a 3rd world country. I have followed your work for over 15 years Catherine. You have provided me with sanity, along with Dr. Farrell and Jon Rappaport, amidst the decay of our country along with the sole hope of looking to God and the universe for hope and salvation. Your interview with Patrick Wood has answered those questions I have pondered for over 50 years. It was like listening to the meeting of the greatest minds our country has today. God bless, and thank you both for confirming my fears and answering those questions I have tried to make sense of since age 11. Be well and infinite gratitude. You are both doing God’s work.

    1. Sandra:
      I am so glad this helped. I do believe there are logical explanations for all things in heaven and on earth. We just have to keep learning and growing our intelligence. I also believe that no matter how bad things get, knowledge is power. So I want to know and use that knowledge towards creating an enlightened human civilization.

      I’m with Gandhi – I believe we should try civilization.
