Remember when the US economically ruled the world? You may already be pushing back, saying, "we still do". Are you sure about that?   Is the US still the #1 investor or the #1 trading partner worldwide? If you said yes, strap yourself in because you're in for a shock. If it's not the US, who is it, and what does it mean for the rest of the world? That's where we're going for the next two episodes with our guest and returning champion, John Perkins, AKA The Economic Hitman.  In John Perkins's latest book, he states that we are at the beginning of the third wave of Economic Hitmen strategies rolling out across the world. If you think this is some conspiracy theory, consider that this is the work of a man with an intimate insider pass and the highest possible credentials. John Perkins is an economist, author, and activist. As Chief Economist at a major consulting firm, John was an advisor to the World Bank, UN, IMF, Fortune 500 corporations, and leaders of countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, and US government agencies.  His eleven books have been published in more than 35 languages and sold over 2 million copies, including Confessions of an Economic Hitman, Touching the Jaguar, and Shapeshifting was on The New York Times bestseller list for over 70 weeks.  John's latest book, Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, 3rd Edition, describes China's economic hitman strategy and the need to transform a failing, degenerative death economy into a regenerative life economy. John Perkins has lectured at more than 50 universities and has been featured on ABC, NBC, CNN, Time, The New York Times, Elle, Der Spiegel, and many others. He became a founder of the non-profits Dream Change and The Pachamama Alliance.   In his latest book, Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, 3rd Edition, he describes the unforgivable acts he committed as chief economist at a major US consulting firm and the crimes executed by the CIA assets, known as jackals, who stood behind him. John exposes the Economic Hit Men strategy" that took on new and ominous proportions after China entered the fray in the early 2000s. He then offers a plan for converting the resulting failed, degenerative death economy into a regenerative life economy and how we can help make that happen.

Today's guest on the Expat Money Show is Chad Elwartowski, the COO of Ocean Builders. You may not have heard of https://ocean.builders/ (Ocean Builders), but you most likely have heard of SeaSteading and SeaPods.  As a first seasteader he brings along his expertise of knowing how life on the open ocean can be and what will be necessary for future customers to feel comfortable in their floating homes.  Ocean Builders is located at Linton Bay Marina on the Caribbean Sea in Panama. They are the first company to build a floating home in the open ocean with plans to build many more. Mikkel and Chad met back in January at a convention and they struck up a conversation regarding SeaSteading and LandSteading. Mikkel's interest was piqued and he really wanted his audience to understand what happened in Thailand and what great things are happening here in Panama. It's a fascinating story, and we're pretty sure you'll love listening to Chad tell it. If you're not sure what SeaSteading is, go check out Chad's company https://ocean.builders/ (Ocean.Builders) One of the really great things about Panama is that the government here is totally behind Ocean Builders concept and are supporting Chad and his company to build these pods both in shallow water and in deep water. Listen in as Chad also explains about LandSteading and what will be happening in Panama inland. Here are some points discussed: What will these pods look like What is the energy source What about garbage disposal Internet How are these units built Will these units affect the coral in the water Can you really 3D Print a home and so much more If you are interested in owning a pod whether it be on the shores of the Caribbean, out in International waters or in the interior of Panama, then please check out this podcast and reach out to Chad via his Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/seasteading/ (The Seasteading Institute) https://www.facebook.com/chad.elwartowski (Chad Elwartowski) https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Chad+Elwartowski (YouTube)   Related Articles & Podcast Episodeshttps://expatmoneyshow.com/episodes/085-warren-black/ (EP 085: Warren Black - International Tax Expert Champions For Sovereignty) https://expatmoneyshow.com/episodes/john-perkins-confessions-of-an-economic-hitman-yesterday-and-today/ (EP 071: John Perkins - Confessions of An Economic Hitman - Yesterday and Today!) https://expatmoneyshow.com/episodes/richard-maybury-how-will-the-trade-war-with-china-affect-you-and-your-investments/ (EP 069: Richard Maybury - Seeing Into The Future - How Will The Trade War With China Affect You and Your Investments)   Final ThoughtsThis was a really interesting episode to record with Chad. When we met back in February and we said we would stay in touch, as we both live in Panama. With this lockdown due to the Coronavirus, the topic of Sovereignty kept coming up and SeaSteading is a great way to become Sovereign. As soon as the lockdown has been lifted, I'm going to take my family out to Linton Bay, and spend a few days relaxing on the beach, swimming in the sea and making new friends! Support this podcast

John Perkins – Confessions of an Economic Hitman (17. 7. 2019) by Meltingpot

John Perkins was an Economic Hitman. After finishing Business School, he wanted to join the Peace Corp. Around the same time, he had a job interview with the NSA. Their assessment of him was that he would make the perfect Economic Hitman and they encouraged him to join the Peace Corp. There he was thrown into the jungles of the Amazon River. He learned how to survive, to speak another language and understand how developing nations worked.   After the Peace Corps, John was the Chief Economist at a major international consulting firm. He advised the World Bank, United Nations, IMF, U.S. Treasury Department, Fortune 500 corporations, and leaders of countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East.   You may ask, what is an Economic Hitman? and how did John Perkins come to write a book called "Confessions of an Economic Hitman?"   John Perkins life and the life of all Economic Hitman from around the globe are what action thriller movies are made of. Intrigue and espionage. Government coup and presidential assassination.   John tells us stories of working with Prime Ministers, Presidents, and Heads of States of several Countries around the Globe during the 1970s. John Perkins was told he was doing good work, that the only way to help developing countries was to get them huge loans to build schools, infrastructure and more. However, the reality was that the money wasn't going to the countries involved, it was going to large corporations inside the USA who would build the roads and the schools and the countries would be left with a huge debt that they couldn't possibly pay off.   Mikkel Thorup and John Perkins talk in-depth about:The story behind the story Iran Regime Change - the origin Jamie Raldos - Ecuador president assassinated Omar Torrijos - Panama president assassinated Iraq - Saddam Hussein 3 stages - economic hitman - jackals - military Corporatocracy   Confessions Of An Economic HitmanConfessions Of An Economic Hitman took 14 years to write. It provides Perkins' account of his career with engineering consulting firm Chas. T. Main in Boston. Ultimately, Confessions spent 73 weeks on the New York Times nonfiction bestseller list, has been published in at least 32 languages and is used in many college and university programs.   Life After the NSA and Chas. T. MainLet's Talk About 'What is a Capitalist'?A capitalist is a person who uses their wealth to invest in trade and industry for profit in accordance with the principles of capitalism. Likewise, Capitalism is an economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state.   What Is CorporatocracyCorporatocracy is a term used to refer to an economic and political system controlled by corporations or corporate interests. It is most often used as a term to describe the economic situation in a particular country. This is different from corporatism, which is the organization of society into groups with common interests. Corporatocracy as a term is often used by observers across the political spectrum.   How Can we Change our PerceptionsTo be successful we need to change our perceptions. And how can we change our perceptions? We need to create a lifestyle, to create companies, to create a business' that look to the long term benefits not just the short term benefits for all.   We need to protect the only planet we have right now, be conscientious and do the right thing for future generations, and we need to work together to make huge changes.   He is an author & activist committed to transforming the world into a sustainable, just, and peaceful place where all beings thrive.   How to Reach John PerkinsJohn Perkins is a founder and board member of Dream Change and The...

Dear listeners, In this episode Elske shares her story how her interest shifted from biology towards social science. This shift was influenced by the well known question among Wageningen students and scientist which is; How to feed the world? She went on a journey to find THE ANSWER for this big question! Studying social sciences and development studies helped her to see the bigger picture, that the top down interventions are very often affecting local communities and smallholders on a harmful way. Food is not just a product that we eat, it is also a tool for achieving economic and political goals therefore manipulation and corruption are almost always present in food related issues. Real answers can be found in getting involved in gardening, small scale farming and by being part of rural communities. Reconnecting with the land and nature can also help us find our own true nature and show us the real value of healthy food.

My guest in this episode is John Perkins. As Chief Economist at a major international consulting firm, John Perkins advised the World Bank, United Nations, IMF, U.S. Treasury Department, Fortune 500 corporations, and leaders of countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. The New Confessions of an Economic Hit Man (2016), a follow-up to John’s classic New York Times bestseller, brings the story of economic hit men and jackal assassins up to date and chillingly home to the U.S. It goes on to provide practical strategies to transform the failing global death economy into a regenerative life economy.

Aired Tuesday, 9 January 2018, 5:00 PM ESTBusiness As UNusual: How A Life Economy Can Overgrow the Death EconomyA Conversation With Conscious Business Initiative’s Steve Farrell“Putting the pie-in-the-sky ideal into the down-to-earth real deal is where the karma meets the road.” — Swami BeyondanandaSteve-Farrell_Wiki-Politiki_OMTimes-RadioA little more than a year ago, I heard author John Perkins (Confessions of An Economic Hit Man) speak, and found one piece of his message particularly heartening. Perkins, as you may know, spent years working for the World Bank selling boondoggle projects to developing nations. His book was an exposé of economic exploitation disguised as “development.” He has since turned his focus to exposing the “death economy” that involves four “E’s” (extraction, exploitation, extortion and yes, extinction) and empowering the life economy based on 4 R’s — renewables, respect for the web of life and human life as well, and redefining “growth” as growth in happiness and wellbeing while using more resourcefulness and fewer resources.The most heartening statement was this: In corporations worldwide, there is an awakening awareness to this new “bottom line” that reflects what Swami has said: “If we lose the earth, there goes our GDP.”This awakened awareness is now being sparked and cultivated by this week’s guest, Steve Farrell, founder of Conscious Business Initiative and the Conscious Business Declaration.Steve’s own background, epiphany and transformation make him the perfect convener for this new initiative. He co-founded and led two high growth technology companies based in Silicon Valley in the 1990’s that were featured in INC 500 Magazine. His companies included some of the brightest minds in the technology corridor. Steve walked away from the Valley because he felt a deeper calling, a calling to transform an emerging vision into reality. At its core, it was about a shifting paradigm where business attunes to the interconnection among all stakeholders, including stockholders, employees, and the community, as well as with the sacred inherent in all life.Join us this week as we discuss the why, the what, the who and the how of the role business can play in helping us “live into” the simple prescription Joe Simonetta offered on last week’s show: Be healthy, be kind, respect the environment.As Director of Humanity’s Team, sponsor of Global Oneness Day, Steve Farrell will offer plenty of examples of how this theme and meme of “oneness” is helping to reorganize the business world around this evolutionary idea.
