John Perkins, kachero wa National Security Agancey (NSA) ya U. S anasimulia jinsi ambavyo US huzifanyia nchi masikini duniani ili kuweza kuzinyonya na kupata rasilimali zake. Katika kitabu chake cha Economic Hit Men, Perkins anaeleza mbinu mbalimbali hasa kupitia mitambo ya umeme na uzalishaji nishati kuzipa madeni makubwa na tozo kubwa nchi hizo kama njia ya kuzifilisi na kuzifanya tegemezi huku wakiongeza shida kwa wananchi. Richmond na Escrow vinawea kuwa mfano, jisomee!

Zaidi ya hapo John Perkins ameelezea namna ambavyo Economic Hit Men (EHM) hutumwa na serikali yao kupitia mashirika na makampuni mbalimbali makubwa kuwatapeli viongozi wa nci masikini waingie mikataba hiyo ya kitapeli. Perkins anasema wakishindwa kuwashawishi viongozi 'wagumu' mbinu ya kuwaua hutumika. Perkins ametoa mifano ya viongozi waliowahi kuliwa kwa njia mbalimbali na hata kupinduliwa.
Perkins anasema jaribio la kumuua likishindikana basi nchi husika hupelekewa vita. Mfano anaoutoa hapa ni wa Iraq kwa Saddam Hussein.
Ukisoma kitabu hicho cha Economic Hitman utakuta kabisa MCC ni moja ya mpango ulioandaliwa na Economic Hit Men. Perkins anasema nini hutokea endapo Economic Hit Men wakishindwa?
I wrote that in 1982, as the beginning of a book with the working title, Conscience of an Economic Hit Man . The book was dedicated to the presidents of two countries, men who had been my clients , whom I respected and thought of as kindred spirits -- Jaime Roldos , president of Ecuador, and Omar Torrijos, president of Panama . Both had just died in fiery crashes. Their deaths were not accidental. They were assassinated because they opposed that fraternity of corporate , government, and banking heads whose goal is global empire . We EHMs failed to bring Roldos and Torrijos around, and the other typ e of hit men, the CIA-sanctioned jackals who were always right behin d us, stepped in.
Perkins anaeleza wao ni akina nani, wanafanya nini na sababu iliyompelekea kuhatarisha maisha yake kuandika hiki kitabu.
That is what we EHMs do best: we build a global empire. We are an elite group of men and women who utilize international financia l organizations to foment conditions that make other nations subservient to the corporatocracy running our biggest corporations, ou r government, and our banks. Like our counterparts in the Mafia, EHMs provide favors. These take the form of loans to develop infrastructure — electric generating plants, highways, ports, airports, or industrial parks. A condition of such loans is that engineering an d construction companies from our own country must build all thes e projects. In essence, most of the money never leaves the United States; it is simply transferred from banking offices in Washington to engineering offices in New York, Houston, or San Francisco.
Najaribu kutafakari haya masimulizi ya Perkins kama yana ukweli na hatima ya msimamo wa rais Magufuli kwa U.S. Japo wengi wetu ni wavivu wa kusoma, kitabu hiki che Economic Hit Man kinafaa sana kusomwa hasa na watu wanaopenda kufikiri
