Thanks for your comment.

I guess I limit myself to what I can do, since I don’t hang out with leaders of countries…

Keep doing your good work!

It’s a laudable sentiment. Where is the money going to come from.? Unless every country secures it’s money supply interest free, all efforts are nebulous.
When I discussed with the leader of a country on the hold the bankers have on his ’sovereign’ country and what measures he has in store under such a threat.
True enough such a threat did occur in the eighties, he was able to take them on by addressing his money supply position.
First country in the world, for the first time to challenge the institutions Confounding all the economic pundits around the world, who predicted doom and gloom.
He turned the economy around.
The only solution for the alleviation of poverty and prevention of the holocaust that had been going on in the Third World for decades,.is for each country to secure its money supply. with out depending on foreign banks and institutions.
It can be done and leaders around the world are realising this.
Band aid Jubilee efforts are a piece meal efforts.
The assets of the Third World exceeds the market capitilisation of all the major stock markets of the world, which is crumbling at an astonishing level to zero value.
For the Third World to progress those countries need leadership and be prepared to stand up to the tactics of the ‘Economic Hitman’ and the jackals
I am getting encouraging massages loud and clear
