Laura Carlsen | counterpunch.org | 2020-03-17

Each member state's contribution is based on the relative size of its national economy and the US contributed 60% ($51 million) of the $81million 2019 OAS operating budget. As a result, the U.S. has historically had disproportionate power over the organization.

rt.com | 2020-03-17
The global markets' current implosion was 100 percent guaranteed, former Wall Street stockbroker Max Keiser told RT. According to him, the financial markets are best described as a "quadrillion-dollar Ponzi scheme." | "Central banks' policy of allowing governments and corporations to borrow, at virtually no cost, against decades of future consumption to consume now, hollowed out the global economy and made it extremely fragile," said Keiser. | He explained that industries and companies that destroyed themselves buying back their own stock (airlines, for example) are "rightfully being wiped off the face of the…
