Internationaal Opererende Bankrovers
John Perkins is een voormalige hooggeplaatste bankemployee. In de bestseller 'Confessions of an Economic Hit Man' beschrijft hij de gangsterpraktijken in de internationale bankwereld: 'how as a highly paid professional, he helped the U.S. cheat poor countries around the globe out of trillions of dollars by lending them more money than they could possibly repay and then take over their economies.' Op de website van Information Clearing House kunt u kijken en luisteren naar een lezing van Perkins waarin hij uiteenzet hoe: 'Since world war two we've managed to create history's first truly global empire. This has been done by the corporatocracy, which are a few men and women who run our major corporations and in doing so also run the U.S. government and many other governments around the world.' From 1971 to 1981 John Perkins worked as a chief economist for Chas. T. Main, a Massachusetts-based international strategic consulting firm. During this time Mr. Perkins said his job was to trick developing countries into taking enormous loans from the World Bank in order to construct or repair their domestic infrastructure. These loans were given with the understanding that these countries would then use those loans to pay U.S. corporations to complete these constructing and engineering projects. The author writes that when these developing countries were eventually unable to pay off these sizable debts, the United States, World Bank, or IMF would step in and control the country's security arrangements and budgetary structure.'
