@NationwideRadio If they had no fear to do this to Bolt ask yourself what have they been doing to ordinary Jamaicans whose money just disappeared from their account. Bolt kept quiet giving them time to deal with the issue for the sake of Jamaica. Dem Bad mind. Speak out Bolt and help us.
@JamaicaObserver Rules are rules. The problem I have is that they are subjective. If you are Indian or not make everybody hair one inches on the top. An alternative is that they could all bald their heads😏. No hair no problem.
CONFESSION OF AN ECONOMIC HIT MAN
Ever wonder exactly how the United States subverts democracy and the aspirations of countries?
In this clip, we hear from the horse’s mouth about the array of tools that are used to shape the international landscape to US favour. John Perkins bore witness to his time at a US-based consulting firm, for which he said the US National Security Agency screened him. Decades later, Perkins published an exposé, ‘Confessions of an Economic Hit Man.' The book lays out how individuals are recruited to promote the interests of corporations and Western government agencies in developing countries, at the expense of the people.
Perkins' job involved convincing poor countries' leaders to accept loans for infrastructure and development projects that were often unnecessary and unsustainable. Since recipient countries could not easily pay off these loans, they fell into a cycle of debt and dependency. This allowed the United States and its corporate interests to exert control over these countries, effectively turning them into economic and political vassals.
Let us know what you think of Perkins' explanation.
A Thread 🧵
From 1915 to 1934, the United States occupied Haiti under the guise of ensuring stability and protecting it from European interference. However, according to the New York Times, evidence from decades of diplomatic correspondence, financial records and historical analysis reveals a more menacing driver behind the occupation: Wall Street! Specifically, National City Bank, now Citigroup, played a central role in pushing for US intervention in Haiti, driven by the desire to secure financial dominance over the Caribbean state to expand its business beyond US borders.
