SUPER SPIN SUCCESS

My book exposes a verifiable paper trail proving that the killing by starvation of 25,000 people in the underdeveloped world every day is the direct result of our selling food at subsidised half price against them which is the only thing most of their them can produce. Having halved the world price by unfair competition, we then use tariffs so that we pay less than half that again for their exports. We have undermined their national economies and bankrupted many. More die in a week than by the Iraq war, 4 times more per day than by the Holocaust, as many as on an average day of World War 2.
We weaken and emasculate the salt of the earth, the billions of peasant farmers, so that instead of claiming the rights of democracy they are desperately and barely clinging on to existence. We trump our devastation by feeding money called aid into leaders we like who often oppress them. Aid, amounting to about 1/3 of the money we steal, supports those leaders who support us, comforts those voters who have a conscience and about 20% actually goes to its advertised destination. We promote chaos and their killing of one another by supplying arms to, for example, 53 out of the 54 African states in one year’.
This rising toll makes today the most tragic day in human history, yields the moral high ground to Al Qaeda and only benefits us by adding a meagre 1½% to our standard of living. Do you care when our elected governments verge on mass murder by enforcing their globalised world economic control so that 1 billion people are robbed of more than half the free market price for their produce and many starve? When they have crop failure, pestilence, flood, drought or earthquake they usually have no machines, no concrete, no irrigating equipment, no petrol, no pumps and no emergency appliances because we leave them so near penniless. A flood becomes a deluge. Its good business, more profitable than slavery but ‘do you think its all right?’
I will send any doubter 100 pages of proof I have written as a qualified economist with UCLA and Stanford training.
