Economist, author of the bestseller book "The History of an
Economic Hit Man." His main goal was to convince the Third World
countries to take huge loans for infrastructure development -
much larger than necessary, and to ensure the issuance of
contracts for construction work for such American corporations as
the "Halliburton" and "Bechtel". Once these countries were
burdened with huge debts, the US government and related
international aid agencies gained control over the economy of
these countries and thus were able to use oil and other resources
of these countries to build a global empire.
