"Basically, what Economic Hit Men are
trained to do is to build up the American empire. To create situations where as
many resources as possible flow into this country, to our corporations, and our
government, and in fact we've been very successful." - John
Perkins
"So we
make this big loan, most of it comes back to the United States, the country is
left with the debt plus lots of interest, and they basically become our
servants, our slaves. It's an empire. There's no two ways about it. It's a huge
empire. It's been extremely successful." - John
Perkins
"The government, which was designed for
the people, has got into the hands of the bosses and their employers, the
special interests. An invisible empire has been set up above the forms of
democracy." - Woodrow Wilson
"To plunder, to slaughter, to steal,
these things they misname empire; and where they make a wilderness, they call it
peace." - Tacitus
