" by John Perkins is easily one of the most engrossing pieces of non-fiction one can read to learn about the true drivers behind globalization, espionage, corporate cronyism, the emergence of such "artificial" organizations as the World Bank and the IMF, and most importantly, debt "enslavement", all as seen from an insider’s view. It explains in simple words why over the past 40 years the developing world paradigm has been exploited as heavily as it has, why the BRIC concept was instrumental as a Red Herring to perpetuating the myth of endless growth, and why credit must always flow no matter what to keep the status quo in power.
Mr. Perkins and I sat down and talked about his New Book, “HOODWINKED” > WHY THE WORLD FINANCIAL MARKETS IMPLODED – AND WHAT WE NEED TO DO TO REMAKE THEM
Confessions of an Economic Hitman was on the NYT Best Seller list for over a year and was one of the best books I have read in 10 years. After 9/11, John could no longer not tell his story. It is a story of freedom and truth and I encourage you to read his books and catch him on the speaking tour when you see him come through your town.

From WIKI:
Confessions of an Economic Hit Man is a book written by John Perkins and published in 2004. It provides Perkins’ account of his career with consulting firm Chas. T. Main in Boston. Before employment with the firm, he interviewed for a job with the National Security Agency (NSA). Perkins claims that this interview effectively constituted an independent screening which led to his subsequent hiring by Einar Greve, a member of the firm (and alleged NSA liaison) to become a self-described “economic hit man”. The book was allegedly referred to in an audio tape released by Osama Bin Laden in September 2009.[1]
I know you will enjoy the new book by John, called Hoodwinked. Please read it and spread the good word.
Thanks again Mr. Perkins!
