  1. So why haven't the countries of the world join and tell the IMF where to go and what to do with this fake thing called currency and wealth? All that is needed for food is soil, seed and water. Privatization is the theft of resources from the people and the country. There is nothing liberal about privatization. It is old world Europe. Stop westernizing countries. It does not mean you are developed to be westernized and made capitalistic.

  2. Mdm. Lagarde is a fashionable android. The goddess. Inhuman with the finest manners. Beyond the usual mortals. Unreachable, unbendable, corrupt.

  3. The IMF and world bank goes to a country who's resources they covet .They give them massive loans which the country can not pay back and the loan does not benefit the the people only a rich local family and international buisness men. They set up electrical grids, ports, jails, railroads,dams etc. The IMF says we know you can not pay back the loan we will give you "good cotinance" we will take you valuable resource to pay back the interest on the loan, but they first crash their currency and then get pay back in the natural resource.
    That is just the tip of the iceberg.

  4. The logic of this demanded are to make sure that the western world through banks IMF, control the food productions, to then control population growth and well being of populations and its countries. At the end depopulation through starvation and disease is the end goal effectively slowly but surely.

  5. The IMF was established in 1944 in Bretton Woods and is controlled by our Central Bank, hence high risk hedge funds are indirectly protected by forcing countries like Greece into austerity, ensuring repayment of supposedly high risk investments.

    Read: Confessions of an Economic Hitman by Perkins autobiography of his times with the IMF.

  7. The pushing of SAPS in the 90s gutted our agriculture sector here in Kenya. The cuts to the agricultural sector and the privatization of certain government institutions meant we made no leaps forward in feeding our people and bolstered an already cartelized private sector.

  8. What was acceptable back when Hugh Heffner (Catholic, strict upbringing) days, compared to Weinstein days is almost like following the decay of the Christian faith. Birth of the IMF, Stock Exchange etc…
    Christine Madeleine Odette Lallouette, was born on the 1st January 1956 in Paris, France. She was asked how she reacted when the US let Lehman Brothers collapse. “Holy cow!” she declared, in one of the most memorable – and scathing – lines of the film.

    Headquarters: Washington, D.C., United States

    Replacing Dominique Strauss-Kahn, her French predecessor. It was an ascent marred by controversy. Strauss-Kahn was forced to resign earlier this year amid a sex scandal involving a New York hotel maid.

    Follow the money and you get the answer of WHY the WAR formula works for the Great USA, they print money and have no ASSETS to back up their print machine that has no bounds. WHY WHY WHY??
    The Great Depression was the worst economic downturn in the history of the industrialised world,
    ***WWI called the Industrial war***. lasting from 1929 to 1939. It began after the stock market crash of October 1929, which sent Wall Street into a panic and wiped out **millions of investors**. Question who got all the money???
    On April 6, 1917, the U.S. joined its allies–Britain, France, and *Russia*–to fight in World War I. Under the command of Major General John J. Pershing, more than 2 million U.S. soldiers fought on battlefields in France. Many Americans were not in favour of the U.S. entering the war and wanted to remain neutral.
    International Monetary Fund were created to *bar a return of the cutthroat economic nationalism* that had prevailed before the war.
    ALL INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET, what is said on the internet STAYS ON THE INTERNET, Grandpa always said TRUTH SHALL PREVAIL.

  9. The IMF is promoting US Corporate Agribusiness which
    bankrupts the local and indigenous
    Farmers.
    That's what happened in Mexico and the Caribbean. Then the destitute Farmers enter the U.S.
    for jobs and survival of their families, and are exploited or
    imprisoned.
    The IMF rules need to change!
