Flashback Friday | #423: The Next Batch Of Economic Hitmen | John Perkins

About this episode

After spending a decade working for the Empire, John Perkins walked away from his life as an Economic Hitman and gave up the game in his transformative book “Confessions of an Economic Hitman”. With the third edition of the book now available, we explore the role of the new group of financial arsonists who have set their sights on Latin America.

Will China continue the process of empire building that the United States began half a century ago, or does its plan for a new Silk Road reward cooperation and collaboration instead? With the majority of its mineral wealth locked down inside the ground, could China secure the resources that it covets in South America while also raising the standard of living for an entire continent? Not if the American Empire has anything to say about it.
