Economic Hitman Reflection

Confessions of an Economic Hitman is an excellent book that shows us from the perspective of an EH, their vision of the world, their job, and their lives. The main character of the book is about to tell us how  his job was, and all the important events through history in a cronological order. John Perkins is the author and main character of this book. He is confessing how he and his partners impacted in other countries for example Panama and Ecuador.

This economic hitmans appeared in countries like Panama to make their dirty business. In Panama, the leader Omar Torrijos, stood strong in his position having great feedback of his people and support. The EHs wanted to negotiate the Panama Canal to get it back. Since Torrijos didn't wanted to negotiate with this people, he denied any proposal from the EHs and stood firm in his position. Because of his reaction, the EHs decided to do something. After some days, he died in an airplane crash "accident". Without doubt this accident was manipulated by the EHs of the U.S and the corporatocracy empire. And eventually, the next leader of Panama was controlled by the EHs for their benefit. 

Another country that was affected by this EHs was Ecuador. This case was really similar to the case of Panama and its leader. The United States wanted to intervene in Ecuador in other to get their oil. But the Ecuatorian leader, Jaime Roldos didn't want this foreign companies to practically "steal" their oil and for the explotation of the country. So, as the leader of Panama, he stood firm in his position and denied any negotiation with the EHs. After some days, another plane crash accident happened, eventually manipulated by the EHs. This were two of the many other countries that the Economic Hitmans impacted on.
