John Perkins: Hookwinked Tour plus Q&A 11-18-2009

MUTINY and DOING ALL THOSE LITTLE THINGS and VIRTUALIZATION

John Perkins is on his Hookwinked book tour. In this interview, he's at the Commonwealth Book Club. There's also a really good Q&A with some really good questions and insight.

I liked the concept of mutiny vs. revolution. Mutiny just sounds easier to accomplish. Maybe we should have a mutiny in DC? Futhermore, there were a lot of questions on what people can do and the answer that was most hinted at (at least from the questioning audience) was changing the politicians or changing the executives at corporations, which are quick solutions. I wish John Perkins had answered changing one's buying habits to all the questions. The smalltime footwork that leads to incremental change is what is needed, not that quick fix. The quick fix will never happen. Change needs to be forced from the bottom with a force of numbers. Let use our passion and talents but all useless if misdirected. We need to do all those little things, the dirty leg work, and do it bottom up.

One more thing, it's amazing how everything's become virtualized. Those concepts and schemes and bits of knowledge that you didn't learn in college seem all virtual. They're hard to see and recognize right away, unless you connect the dots with other things. To really study what's going on you have to see the forest before you see the trees. The bailout is a good example. Once you connect the dots from all the politicians, bankers, the bribe/campaign money, thr revolving door, the bonuses, and all the premeditated subprime planning (years in the making!), you get a clear picture of the players and the master plan.

John Perkins interviewed by Alex Jones 08-24-2009

John Perkins talks about the Honduras coup being assisted by the CIA and business interests of Honduras. Honduras and Haiti must not increase their minimum wage because that will set off wage increases in the rest of Latin America. Eric Holder's law firm defended Chiquita in court and brokered a deal to plead guilty to "engaging in transactions with a specially designated global terrorist organization" for its part in assassinations and coups of previous decades when the company as United Fruit. The fine was a measly $25 million over 5 years.

We need to start boycotting those companies that do not share our values!! Buy fair trade. Buy local. Buy from companies trying to do the right thing. Of course it will cost a little, but it's a small price to pay to keep monopolies and corruption at bay. As Catherine Austin Fitts says, DECENTRALIZE!

Also discussed the hitjob done on America. The 3rd world was treated as such the past 30 years. Now the rooster has come to roost right here in the USA.
