The New Confessions of an Economic Hit Man is a book written by John Perkins, an economic hitman himself. The book is a follow-up to his previous bestseller, Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, which was published in 2004.

Summary of The New Confessions of an Economic Hit Man

The book begins with Perkins explaining how he became an economic hit man in the 1970s. He was recruited by the National Security Agency (NSA) and trained in various techniques to manipulate and control countries that were perceived as a threat to the United States. Perkins’ job was to convince leaders of these countries to accept massive loans from the World Bank and other international lenders, which would ultimately put them into a state of debt and dependency. This would allow the United States to control their resources and political decisions.

Perkins describes how he traveled to various countries, including Indonesia, Panama, and Ecuador, and used his skills to manipulate leaders into accepting loans they could not afford. He also describes how he used bribery, threats, and even assassination to achieve his goals. Perkins explains how the EHM program has been used for decades to control countries and create economic dependency.

In the second part of the book, Perkins provides new insights into the EHM program. He describes how the program has evolved over the years and how it is now being used to control countries through technology and cyberwarfare. Perkins also provides examples of how the EHM program has been used to create economic dependency in countries that are perceived as a threat to the United States, such as China and Russia.

Perkins also provides a detailed analysis of the current state of the global economy and how it is being controlled by a small group of elites. He explains how the EHM program is being used to create a global economic system that benefits only a few people at the top, while the rest of the world suffers from poverty and debt.

In the final part of the book, Perkins provides a detailed plan for how to dismantle the EHM program and create a more just and equitable global economy. He calls for a new economic system that is based on sustainability and fairness, and he provides concrete steps that individuals and governments can take to achieve this goal.
