For the mad hatters of tin foil - a great interview

"The World Bank is a tool of economic hit men, there is no question about it. It's the tool of big corporations, the IMF and most of what we call intelligence agencies of the United States, CIA and NSA. Essentially the job of all these organizations is to help what used to be just US businesses – now we call them multi-nationals – get themselves established around the world in positions where they can exploit the world's resources, natural resources and human resources."

"I contacted other economic hit men and jackals who destabilize government when hit men fail; I contacted these people to include them in the book. Then I received anonymous phone calls; threats on my daughter's life, and she was very young at the time. I took the threats very seriously, as I have seen what jackals can do because I failed to corrupt Jaime Roldos, the democratically elected President of Equador and Arias Madreid of Panama; the jackals assassinated both of those leaders."

The IMF and World Bank and all related organizations are disgraces and should be abolished at once. Without getting into politics, Ill just say for anyone doubting that all this turmoil has been planned for a long time, you need to read some books and reports published by these organizations.

CaptHenway

By all means, don't get into politics.

Unfortunately, economics and markets (including PMs) have become controlled by politics. You can't grasp economic models without understanding the political influence they are now under. What I call the "econ/political" nightmare.

CaptMorgan

For fairness for TOS, I wont go into politics, but economics and politics are related and go hand in hand. Even in supposed free markets.
