He Was Paid to Put Countries in Debt… Then He Spoke Out | Confessions of an Economic Hitman | John Perkins

I sat down with John Perkins, author of Confessions of an Economic Hitman, and what he shared completely shifted my perspective.We talk about how global power really works—from the World Bank and IMF to how countries are pushed into debt traps that benefit corporations, not people. But this isn’t just about geopolitics… it’s about awareness, responsibility, and what each of us can actually do.The biggest takeaway for me? It’s not about fear—it’s about action.In this episode, we get into:- What an “economic hitman” actually does- How global systems impact everyday life- The truth behind GDP and who it really benefits- China vs. the U.S. — what’s really happening- Why we’re at a critical inflection point in history- The 5 questions YOU can ask to create real changeThis conversation challenged me—and I think it will challenge you too.Like this episode?
