Just out! Another confession book in the same vein as "Confessions Of An Economic Hitman" printed by the same publisher, with contributions by John Christensen, an ex-hitman like John Perkins, he handled offshore bank accounts on the Isle of Jersey, one of the centers of the British Empires money laundering operations.

I'm broke as a joke, so I can't buy the book, but, John Christensen was being interviewed this morning on the radio, and he was giving an interesting account of his days as an EHM. In particular, it was interesting to hear how the parasitical nature of the financial system he worked for transformed the Island economy from one that was normal (farming, tourism, some manufacturing) into one dominated by the banks.
