| | Time to End Debt Slavery |
| | As the worldwide movement for debt cancellation has grown-- including a 17 million-signature petition presented at the G-7 meeting in June-- the overseers have offered a series of concessions designed to minimize debt relief while maximizing their control over the subject countries. | | | Thus there will be no significant reduction in the amount of money that is drained annually from most of the world's poorest countries to service their debt. | | | The other is a bill, put forward by House Banking Committee Chairman Jim Leach (R-IA), which would cancel debt owed by 42 "Heavily Indebted Poor Countries" to the US government. |

| | Tanzania, for example, is one among several countries which has had to spend over a third of its wealth simply to service its external debt. | | | The international lending institutions in the West seem to benefit by judicious application of the debt tourniquet, not allowing countries to collapse altogether, ensuring interest repayments keep coming, but ensuring also that the debts can never be repaid either. | | | A report on the inadequacy of the "free market's" response to increasing poverty in marginalized poor countries, suggesting land-tenure reform, NGO-monitored credit, increasing/speeding up debt relief, and improving food distribution directly to the urban and rural poor. |

| | portland imc - 2002.08.09 - Debt "SLAVERY" and Mind Control |
| | Under this kind of a system, where new debt aiways exceeds the new money no matter how much or how little is borrowed, the total debt increasingly outstrips the amount of money available to pay the debt. | | | State and local debts are now MORE than the Federal, and with business and personal debts totalled over $6 trillion, 3 times the value of all land and buildings in America. | | | Commentators on radio and TV, preachers, educators, and politicians blame the people as wasteful, lazy, or spend-thrift, and blame the workers and consumers for the increase in debts and the inflation of prices, when they know the cause is the debt-money system itself. |
