According to John Perkins, ‘Economic hit men’ are well-compensated professionals engaged in deceiving countries worldwide, depriving them of trillions of dollars through tactics such as falsifying financial reports, manipulating elections, bribery, extortion, and even resorting to illicit activities like sex and murder.
John Perkins, having been an economic hit man himself, reveals that his role involved persuading strategically significant countries, ranging from Indonesia to Panama, to accept massive loans for infrastructure development. The goal was to ensure that these profitable projects were awarded to U.S. corporations. As a result, burdened with substantial debts, these nations fell under the influence of the United States government, the World Bank, and other U.S.-dominated aid agencies acting akin to loan sharks.
