Alex also talks with economist and author John Perkins. Perkins says that he "was an 'economic hit man' for 10 years, helping U.S. intelligence agencies and multinational corporations cajole and blackmail foreign leaders into serving U.S. foreign policy and awarding lucrative contracts to American business. Perkins writes about his experiences in his book, Confessions of an Economic Hit Man.
