This is a great article with incredible insights on Africa’s rampant corruption of their elites (numbers are staggering).

I’m interested to learn more about poverty rates in our so-called developed countries and possible write a post on it. Do you mind pointing me to good resources?

Btw - I really enjoyed your interview on China and Taiwan on Political Misfits. You bring a much needed non-mainstream analysis

Thank you. From Covid-10 to the War in Ukraine, I strive to put together the puzzle of power, control, media, and the transfer of wealth. It helps having the picture of the puzzle on the box of pieces. This helps create that picture. I also follow: Michael Hudson, Fabio Vighi, Tom Luongo, and David Collum. Many nuances and subtleties. IMHO - the big picture is the continued transfer of power, control, and wealth from working individuals/communities to the "elites."

Sadly, it's too late for reforms. With covid and Ukraine, they have literally looted about all they can; now they're ready to start WWII, a looter's wet dream. We are on our own, I'm afraid; no one is coming to save us.

I sent Matt this document - have you finally seen it? Is this article a response of sorts?
