Binney - June 29 th To The spooks are all cowards. Sunlight is the solution to these things. ~ William E. Binney Retired senior NSA intelligence officer William ( Bill ) E. Binney joins me on the Solari Report this week. Every day we hear that technology is the cause of From The Site July 6th 2nd Quarter Wrap Up - Enforce the Constitution or You Might as Well Kiss Your Money Goodbye!

2 ever-greater inequality of wealth. But how exactly does this happen? In fact, the inequality starts with tax dollars funding government and private contractors, who enjoy the world s most expensive satellite and digital communications and information systems to collect and store your private information. As Binney says, The ultimate goal of the NSA is total population control. In short, American citizens are authorizing and paying NSA and the syndicate of private corporations they fund to control you and to profit at your expense. In October 2001, concerned about the constitutionality of NSA policies and programs, Binney retired after a highly successful 30-year career with NSA. Binney has been described by some of his colleagues as one of the best analysts in the NSA history. As told in the documentary A Good American, Binney built ThinThread a cost-effective surveillance system that protected Americans privacy, only to see ThinThread passed over by agency political appointees for a much more expensive, less effective system of bulk acquisition of data run by private contractors. Since leaving his position as an NSA intelligence office, Binney has educated, litigated, and tirelessly worked to return the United States and its allies to effective, Constitutional surveillance policies. We will discuss Bill s efforts as described in our choice this week for Let s Go to the Movies Frederich Moser s excellent documentaries A Good American and The Maze. Bill will review current events including allegations regarding the DNC hacking, Russian interference in World s Biggest Wealth Fund Refuses to Be Silenced Crypto Commentary: Theory vs. Practice Food for the Soul: "Jack Strong" Subscribers: Money & Markets - June 23, 2017 Young People Are The Superconductors China's Great Bay Area Tsz Shan Monastery The Chinese University of Hong Kong Crypto Commentary: First Installment 2 of 11 7/3/17 5:49 PM

3 the 2016 Presidential campaign, and leaks during the campaign and from the White House. When you finish listening to Bill Binney, one thing you will understand clearly is that the current US Government bulk acquisition and storage of data on all of us has nothing to do with protecting America from bad guys. You will also understand why the Internet of Things (IOT) is such a dangerous idea in the current system and why the cybersecurity scare may just be the next big scam. Indeed, things are so bad that some Congressman are finally talking about pulling the plug on bulk acquisition. Rather than wait for Congress, Binney has some terrific proposals for what we can do to protect our privacy and power shift our situation. If you want to understand why the President of the United States cannot make a phone call without excerpts or even whole transcripts showing up in the media and how to do something about it this is one interview you do not want to miss. Finally, if you want to be inspired by one of the most intelligent and courageous men in America you absolutely want to listen to this interview. This is the last week of the month so no Money & Markets. I am headed from Hong Kong to Bangladesh today and then on to San Francisco the following week as we publish our 2nd Quarter Wrap Up and our next Money & Markets.

4 Just a Taste! - The Corruption and Compromise of the NSA with William E. Binney Just A Taste: The Compromise and Corruption of the NSA with William E. Binney Reflections on Whole Foods Purchase by Amazon By Harry Blazer 4 of 11 7/3/17 5:49 PM

5 How the deal helps Whole Foods and John Mackey: a) Immediate stock appreciation. b) Pressure re: their performance (negative store comps and negative trending sales per square foot) and lagging stock price from Private Equity and other shareholders and market disappears. c) John Mackey remains as CEO (for now). d) The only national retailer of organic, natural and specialty (and arguably most well-known and respected brand) just joined forces with the most innovative, disruptive and respected international brand in online retailing and arguably retailing in general not to mention one of the preeminent providers of web services and masters of fulfillment. e) WF can now operate under the consolidated statement of Amazon (if Amazon chooses to do so) rather than having to report as a separate company and thus escape scrutiny from market and competitors re: financial performance and strategy. f) Expansion of market share overnight by plugging into Amazon Fresh customer base. g) Able to leverage Amazon expertise as the leader in logistics and fulfillment and one of the most significant players in data services, analytics, online technology and customer interface.

8 PDF of the st Quarter Wrap Up The Clash of Civilizations Now Available! From the transcript: A new President and his administration now grapple with how the United States, its economy and its role in the world will evolve from the Bretton Woods system created at the end of WWII and our uni-polar vision of the world. Will the United States successfully adapt to a more globalized, multi-polar world order? This critical discussion, begun in a rancorous campaign, is shrouded by partisan politics and a media shriek-o-meter that is distracting at best and dishonest at worst. At the heart of this problem lie the deep contradictions within the US economy that result from an economic addiction to debt, crime, and war. Subscribers read more here! 8 of 11 7/3/17 5:49 PM

Highlights from Last Week - Unpacking the Gridlock on US Health Care Reform with Jon Rappoport The United States spends $9,451 per person per year on health care as of This figure is significantly higher than the figure for any other country in the world. It s almost 40% more than for Switzerland, the country that spends the second-most money per person. The United States spends more than twice per person than does Australia, Canada, France, Italy, Japan, or the United Kingdom. Despite this tsunami of money, the United States ranks thirtieth among countries in life expectancy. This rating compares to that of Japan (first), Switzerland (second), Australia (third), Italy (fourth), France (ninth), and the United Kingdom (twentieth). Health care expenditures in the United States have risen from 7% to 17% of GNP, threatening the financial health of retirement systems and households, and contributing to greater inequality. At the same time, this explosion of costs has fueled a rising US stock market lead by health care stocks and contributed significantly to local employment and real estate markets. The harsh reality is that capital gains on stock market and real estate is also a significant source of political contributions. As the US Congress struggles with proposals to create a system that is both fair and economic, it faces a series of special interests that make such a change difficult without a revolutionary shift in consciousness and change in the wider economy. A US health care system that is both fair and economic will require change in the behavior of citizens and in many health-related industries, such as agriculture, pharmaceuticals, insurance, telecommunications, and media, and in such covert operations as narcotics trafficking and global spraying. Jon Rappoport of No More Fake News joins me this week to review the challenges facing the US health system. Jon has spent decades investigating medicine, the health sciences and the health care system. His body of writings much of it 9 of 11 7/3/17 5:49 PM
