Michael Hudson tr...Yes, i had forgotten that song.<br /><br />Michael Hudson trained in music, to be a conductor, but he got this job working at a bank in New York while he studied. The Rockefellers discovered that Hudson could experience global capital flows as a symphony orchestra in play.<br />He was assigned to analyze US gold balance of payments (which the Treasury Dept. disagreed with and rejected) By late 1966 the US gold remained balanced in trade with one exception. Gold was hemorrhaging in and around Vietnam.<br />Later, his book "Super Imperialism" became the playbook (unintended) for the Nixon/Kissinger Petro-Dollar play.<br />Hudson is discreet, and a bit tongue-in-cheek, but know who he is, and where he comes from. He is so brilliant as to be protected, despite his views.John Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12123174297818737132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4275885258914846834.post-7810029846298244522022-03-01T18:57:38.549-06:002022-03-01T18:57:38.549-06:00I think, if I understand your views correctly, tha...I think, if I understand your views correctly, that you'll agree with me in thinking that Mr. Hall of the USA Beat Germany Thrice article assumes that the oligarchs and plutocritters are what in literature is called a 'reliable narrator'; i.e., they claim to be working for Euromerican corporations when many of them do appear to enjoy considerable backing from Chinese interests. It's like an over-wrought private eye novel where the surprise ending is that the detective ias a hallucinatory lunatic.<br /><br />Also, I bet you forgot all about this.
