I thought you all knew about this stuff already. It is like a whole other underground world of nations attempting economic destruction on their enemies like China, Russia, Koreas, etc

Im sure the US has done PLENTY of that only for our benefit...but then to have it backfire down the road like Afghanistan or Iraq/Iran is sure a possibility.

Yah, true. Just didn't think the U.S. has sole influence in the World Bank and IMF... very interesting way to conquer the world so to speak without actual armed War... but I see where nations get the notion about U.S. imperialism...

True true, just find the concept interesting. A war fought without bullets that still destroys lives... guess another way of saying imperialism..
