“In this video, Prof. Mark Skidmore speaks on “the missing money”—literally tens of trillions worth of transactions carried out by the US government but which it can’t or refuses to account for. Mark Skidmore and Catherine Austin Fitts have been at the forefront of investigating and documenting this gigantic theft of public money.”
For more information, visit https://missingmoney.solari.com/. This link contains a wealth of information that Catherine and the Solari team collected over many years.
The link below will take you to the third article Dr. Skidmore co-authored with Laurence Kotlikoff for his Forbes column. The article also includes the links to their two previous articles.
Mark, your work is exceptional – as is that of Catherine, the Solari team, and everyone fighting this. Most citizens sadly won’t notice, preoccupied as they are. But the damage is real. Even if full answers remain hidden, we must forge a better, more just system – one resistant to corruption, designed to serve the people. This fight transcends any single country.
Here is an engineer’s perspective on the time following the inevitable upheaval of the coming years:
The Hydra of Government Corruption: A Case for Radical Transformation
Decades of systemic abuse of power have turned our government into a corrupt morass resistant to conventional reform. This entrenched malfunction – characterized by favoritism, cover-ups, and outright criminal behavior – demands a solution as drastic as the problem itself.
A Bold Proposal
Personnel Replacement: Grant generous early retirement packages to public servants with over five years of service within administrative roles. This weeds out those deeply invested in the current system while appealing to honest staff. Simultaneously, offer simplified government positions with attractive salaries to millions of young graduates. These newcomers will be supported by robust AI systems to assist with unfamiliar tasks and ensure efficient, rule-based work in any department.
Mandatory Rotation: Break the potential for corrupt networks through mandatory rotation of all public servants every 15-18 months across departments. This regular shuffling mirrors successful military practices and combats the inertia that allows corruption to fester.
Lottery Over Elections: The very pursuit of power attracts those prone to its abuse. All positions previously filled through elections will use a nationwide lottery system. Every eligible citizen (with minimal requirements such as no felony record) will have an equal chance of being selected. Those drawn can accept or decline a range of positions. Chosen citizens receive a short, intensive training period followed by a 15-18 month service term. Job security is guaranteed, with a return to their previous employment. Salaries are standardized to reduce power-seeking behavior.
Rewards for Downsizing: Empower public servants to find inefficiencies by offering them financial rewards for identifying ways to eliminate their own positions. This creates an internal push towards lean government and a counterbalance to bureaucratic bloat.
This proposal targets the foundations of government dysfunction. Replacing entrenched personnel disrupts corrupt relationships while streamlined training ensures the continuity of necessary tasks. Regular rotation further erodes harmful alliances. Removing elections reduces careerism, while AI systems enhance decision-making and accountability.
Concerns about preserving institutional knowledge are valid. However, current systems reward hoarding such knowledge, often to enhance personal power. A system prioritizing transparency and streamlined workflows, with AI support readily available, mitigates this risk. Additionally, some might argue that a lottery system fails to attract the most qualified individuals. Yet, our present election system repeatedly demonstrates a flawed correlation between campaigning skills and governing abilities.
This proposal is undeniably radical, a recognition of the dire need for a commensurate solution. It is not perfect, but a deliberate provocation to spark critical debate. Let us reimagine a government built upon integrity and designed to serve the public interest, not self-serving agendas. If drastic change is the only cure, then so be it.
