    I remember reading the book “Confessions of an Economic Hitman” few years ago, and it making my blood boil. The way rich countries and powerful people exploit the weaknesses and bad situations of poor countries is so pathetic. Crippling governments and overthrowing good people to get like minded people in power…

    Sri Lanka's real problem is with its ethnic nationalism that spawned a 30 year war, still discriminates systemically against minorities and persuades people to vote irrationally. Sri Lanka had the opportunities and didn't take them. Economically left-wing policies like import substitution and high tarriffs have damaged the country more than any capitalist policy

    Schools are indoctrination camps. They need soldiers too. I agree everyone needs to know but if you think schools would tell kids anything like this is a fantasy. The things kids need to know, never get told. I've known this. People keep trying to wake people up but don't wake up and they think we'd never do that. Schools will never rat out their own country. Good way to get fired and also killed. Also, the history at schools that they teach is fake history that's constantly rewritten to fit their narrative. Real history is erased or covered up . But to think schools would say anything, no way. That's why many homeschool. I'd show my kid this video . I agree with you. It's sick

    Bangladesh is the poorest in the world. You are talking about a continent of people who are very different depending upon what country they are in. Where in Africa are you from? While I agree some places are very horrific to live in, others are what they are because the people refuse to change their ways. These videos only touch on the group that controls it all. It would blow your mind. You will hear this on and off from different people throughout the years until you are finally able to put the pieces to the puzzle together yourself, but by then it will be too late to tell others because for some reason only a small few go seeking out the full truth with no bias. The Fractional reserve (Federal and Central Banking) are the back-doors our enemies have attacked us from. So who controls this scheme? Who hides behind money, yet controls the world? Big difference between the Puritans and the pilgrims that came to America. Learn who the devils are that lead the masses to kill each other. Teach your children well. Even if you do not want to believe it does not mean it is not true. Look up Revelations 3:9 Money is what controls the world people, if you cannot see it then you will never understand what’s happening. Those who run that system also dictate how society is run by controlling everything people are subjected to. They want NOTHING NATURAL, think about the weather, water, A.I. medicine, everything is structured for them. Then they flood us with “immigrants”, brainwash, make delusional people look like the norm, put the lowest of society on pedestals (THUGS made to be idols), etc. knowing that they are putting the ants in a jar to shake up. We will all eventually die out if we do not resist. This is GENOCIDE AGAINST FREEDOM for the whole world. We have been feeling the rattling, THE BIG OLD SHAKY SHAKE IS COMING GLOBALLY SOON. There is no running from it. This is happening in every nation. All will fight and kill each other meanwhile this "GROUP" will stay 100% unaffected and they will start the circle over again.

    I came across that book while gobbling up informations on stocks share and international business for that one job interview in like 2010-11. I didnt get the job. It opened my eyes. At the time, lots of review on the books are like its all lies and pure fiction etc. I look up the loans and relation with IMF by my own country and its all real. Real life is worst than what he wrote in the book. Now, look at Ethiopia, back in couped governemt and economy is going in downward spiral again cuz their development in last 10 years have no substance and all from loads injecting which only profit cronies and imf. Look at Sri Lenka, corrupted government took absolutely bullshit loans to build what they dont need but what China want with the loans from china. All the money goes right back to China because all the materials even the workers are brought from China. All the billions lend by Sri Lenka to build a port they dont need with way inflated price. Citizens didnt even get jobs for it. That President and all his party leaders should have been hang. I wont even start on Myanmar or Cambodia.

    Individual countries do this on a smaller scale to their own citizens . First they make education expensive , make you take a loan , first entrapment , then they give you jobs with wages that don't match the amount of the loans . They make sure that you are paid the bare minimum to survive , when they increase your wages you can be sure that the prices of all bare necessities will increase because the government will increase taxes to pay your wages, and the increase on taxes of goods and services will also be placed on the consumers . The housing programs also allow the rich to get richer and enslave the ordinary citizens with loans. Ever notice how they makes homes that are just a bit too expensive for your income level and then they make you take housing loans that become such a burden that you will be working past your retirement age to pay them off. All this is done with your government in collusion with big business . You are right, this is systemic and it is being done at all levels all over the world.

    Very fascinating, I did read the Jakarta Method a few years ago and it really changed my outlook. But the problem that isn't addressed in these arguments is the complex role of corruption with these men in power that were fairly voted in even without Western Countries support. Many horrible rulers stay in power and get no blame just blaming richer countries imperialism. Classical Liberalism economics did ruin these economies but it was the ideology they thought was best to make countries economically prosperous. When motives like greed from bankers and big corporations mix with with greed from corrupt governments that get in bed with each other it ends up in these type of situations. Not some evil lizard man orchestrating the whole situation. Best book to read on this topic is How Asia works by Joe Studwel.

    Indonesia is actually a "success story" used by these economic hitmen as a case study. The CIA managed to overthrow a left-leaning government without putting any boots on the ground. The "domino effect" mentioned as a justification for invading Vietnam was actually about Indonesia. So a very pro US general, General Suharto (pictures are on the "crazy/mindmap board" in the video), was put in power. An elite few were given scholarships to study in UC Berkeley and when they came back to Indonesia they became our economists, known as the "Berkeley Mafia". And 32 years of a very brutal pro US regime began. It officially ended in 1998 during the Asian Economic Crisis. But until now the US is a top destination for Indonesian kids to study abroad, perhaps more so than our other Southeast Asian neighbors. Perhaps that's why Indonesia has the most number of tech unicorns in Southeast Asia though.

    Capitalism isn't the problem, but the lack of capitalism in the international financial market is the problem. The international financial market is NOT competitive because it is largely denominated by the dollar and the global lender of the last resort, IMF, is monopolized by the US and EU. In short, we have an international capital monopoly problem. Basic ECON 101 tells you resource allocation will be suboptimal when the economy is run by a monopolist or oligopolist. When capital power is extremely concentrated within a few countries, corporations of these said countries have the disproportionate bargaining power to strongarm countries into bad deals. China is no saint but at least they provide an outside option for poor developing countries to bargain against western financial institutions for better deals. China's offers will force western financial institutions to be more honest in their deals because now they don't have the ONLY say. The world needs to have competing economic superpowers to stay efficient in resource allocation. The bottom line, capitalism can only be honest if there is competition. Every developed nation understands that. It is why they have anti-trust laws. However, for their own selfish incentives, they prefer the competition mechanism to be absent at a global scale.

    has absolutely nothing to do with an of that s1ht. These economic hitman are sent by ur country the so called " beacon of democracy and freedom" to destablize poor countries and govts abroad thru "loans" they will never be able to pay back. When the US realizes these countries are in over their head with US debt they demand their pound of flesh and payment in return thru UN votes and if the country still resists they over throw the govt and democratically elected leaders by staging a coup. "This happens within this country" no it doesn't the Economic Hitman operate abroad. The US is itself corrupt and controlled by politicians. Economic Hitman's motives and task are not to eliminate corporations but entire govts many times democratically elected govts and as a result the livelihood of the common ppl in a poor developing 3rd world country gets ruined. There have many instances of the US govt actively supporting and funding foreign dictators just because they are puppets of America. Yet u are complaining about some rich US corporation ie Toys-R-Us which no one gives af about lmao. Wake tf up
