The New Confessions of An Economic Hit Man by John Perkins Chapter Three “In For Life”

 This chapter starts after John was hired on with Chas. T. Main, INC (MAIN). Who to hell are they? They are an International Consulting Firm. Think Halliburton and Becthtel. Okay once again, who to hell are they? Halliburton builds a variety of defense items contractors. They received huge contracts in Iraq. Who is one of their 'shareholders'? Former VP Richard "Dick" Cheney. Any questions. Good, let's move on.


We always hear about contracts that are awarded to various companies, yet nothing ever gets built. Here's why these 'construction projects' never get built. It's a money-laundering scam. What these contracts really do is it teethers countries to our whims. John talked about Kermit Roosevelt, the first-ever EHM and the first CIA agent to pull off a coup. My late father used to tell me that there are layers to the government that most people will never know about. This book is going to be on my must-read list.

War Is A Racket

  This is an excellent quick read. If you don’t have ADHD, it’s a quick read. I started this book before Thanksgiving so between the holidays and every day crazy train I finally finished it. Of course, I made notes in each chapter about my thoughts. We’ll see if this helped compared to the chapter-by-chapter review we did on The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man by John Perkins.  Throughout the book, General Butler covers the ins and outs of war. He looks at the financial cost and the human cost. He starts out by explaining how the military-industrial complex was formed. Which I do think is critical. Most people in America don’t understand what the military-industrial complex is. Never mind how it is used. I am not going into detail here just read The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man. You will understand the order in which things unfold. The minority of Americans know who profits from war and who doesn’t. General Butler covers that as well. You will notice I said ‘m...

How America Angered God Lust

  We left off at Wrath. Now we will continue this list and finish it out. Sin: Lust This is the sin that nails us all. It is wanting power, pleasure, and money. Not necessarily all of these but one or all.  I grew up in the 1980s so when I think of examples of this particular sin I am reminded of Jim Baker and Jessica Hawn. He was married to Tammy and lusted after two things; money and Jessica. Their lust brought them down in the end. Tammy had her own lust for money that contributed to their downfall.  Ten Commandment:  Thou shall not commit adultery.  Virtue: Chastity Being chaste is recommended by Christ. In the book of Mathew chapters 19: 12 and 22: 20 Christ talks of being chaste. Being chaste teaches discipline. https://youtu.be/7Y8lHwOIu_A
