John Perkins, author of Confessions of an Economic Hitman, has a little contact form on his website mediated by goddamn Squarespace. But I still used it to write to him to ask, "Don't you think the obvious thing is for the left to unite internationally and leverage mass labor and economic power to insist on the institution of a real Global Surplus Recycling Mechanism at the IMF and World Bank now, like John Keynes originally proposed at Bretton Woods?"
Quickly, and apparently without much thought, he replied that the IMF and World Bank were dictatorial and not worth our focus in confronting the rise of fascism. BUT THE POINT IS THAT WE USE THE ONLY LEVERAGE WE HAVE AS THE POOR AND WORKING CLASS MASSES TO DEMAND A TRANSFORMATION OF THE TOP DICTATORSHIP SO THAT THERE IS NO LONGER A TOP DICTATORSHIP, AND INSTEAD, A FUNCTIONAL, TRANSPARENT, PUBLIC UNION OF EQUALS THANKS TO FAIR, EGALITARIAN SURPLUS REGULTION, WHICH HAS STILL NOT BEEN TRIED.
DOES NO ONE UNDERSTAND ME?!
