1970’s Chile

Despite $1 million in bribes from the CIA, Salvador Allende was elected President of Chile on a platform of nationalizing key mining and telephone industries. The Washington Ad Hoc Committee on Chile coordinated with the CIA to deliver a plan to President Nixon: suspend aid, stoke military discontent through bribe and power deals, use ensuing economic and political turmoil to overthrow Allende, and cement free trade and privatisation of important industries.

A university exchange with the University of Chicago since 1957, again funded by the Ford Foundation, had created a surplus of "Chicago Boys," free market minded economists. These intellectuals were entrusted by the CIA with creating the "BRICK," a 500 page reform manual; this manual was delivered to Pinochet's military leaders days before the military coup occurred, Sept 11, 1973. Though no protest occurred, 13,500 civilians were arrested and imprisoned. A state of fear was created as random people were killed or 'disappeared.'

As the economy crashed and inflation reached 375%, Michael Friedman flew to Chile and advised that "Gradualism is not feasible," and the free market shock therapy must be administered without hesitation to have full effects. He called for more immediate cuts to social funding and protections like price controls, more privatisation.

In 1982 Chile's faltering economy crashed again, surviving only on the strength of the mining industry (which hadn't been privatised for fear of mass outrage). A 'corporatist' alliance of police, state, and multinational companies, with some re-nationalized companies, allowed the economy some revival. However, Chile experienced massive poverty with only a well-connected elite achieving wealth and higher standards of life. The Ford Motor Corporation, as well as US media and intellectuals, praised Pinochet's economic wisdom.

Lesson learned:
the formula works. Combining a political shock (the coup) with ensuing fear and torture tactics ensures that market changes will occur without protest, without public awareness.

  3. I Never Believed in Chester Brian Loan Company Until now.....(Brianloancompany@yahoo.com)
    Hello All, I was really so downcast after losing so much and facing financial difficulties, no one to help me and all i could do was to just seat and watch my business going down and almost losing my son to an illness. But never the less i meet an old college mate who told me about the loan he got from Chester Brian Loan Company and until now the company have assisted so many of his friends seeking a loan. So i told him that getting a loan any more is not my style because of the disappointment from my bank and other loan company i trusted but he insisted i apply for it and now i can now boost of restoring my company back to its full glory. i will keep on testifying on behalf of Chester Brain Loan because they have made me to be a man again. So if interested in acquiring a loan of any kind email them today via: {Brianloancompany@yahoo.com } OR text (803) 373-2162 .Am Harvey Lee from United States of America.

    Hey Guys !!! Senang sekali saya menjemput saya dari Mike Fisher. Kartu ATM kosong saya bisa menghabiskan $ 2.000 setiap hari. Saya mendapatkannya dari minggu lalu dan sekarang saya memiliki $ 14.000 secara gratis. ATM kosong menarik uang dari mesin ATM dan tidak ada nama di dalamnya, tidak terdeteksi dan sekarang saya punya uang untuk bisnis dan cukup uang untuk saya dan keluarga saya untuk tinggal. Saya sangat senang bertemu dengan Mike Fisher karena saya bertemu dua orang di depannya dan mereka mengambil uang saya tanpa mengetahui bahwa mereka adalah penipuan. Tapi aku bahagia sekarang. Mike Fisher mengirim kartu via DHL dan saya mendapatkannya dalam dua hari. Dapatkan kartu Anda sendiri darinya sekarang dia tidak suka scammers lain yang berpura-pura memiliki kartu ATM, Dia memberikannya secara gratis untuk membantu orang meskipun itu ilegal tapi sangat membantu dan tidak ada yang pernah ditangkap.

  10. Testimony!!! Testimony!!! Testimony!!! Testimony!!! Testimony!!! Testimony!!! Testimony!!! Testimony!!!

    Hey, guys! I'm so glad I got my Mike Fisher's. My blank ATM card can withdraw $ 2,000 a day. I understood from last week and now I have $ 14,000 for free. The blank ATM withdraws money from any ATM and there is no name, it is not traceable and now I have money for business and enough money for me and my family to live. I'm really happy to meet Mike Fisher because I met two people before her and they took my money without knowing they were scams. But I'm happy now. Mike Fisher sent the card through DHL and I understood it in two days. Get her own card now, she's not like another scammer pretending to have the ATM card, She's giving it away for free to help people, even if it's illegal, but it helps a lot and no one ever gets caught. I'm grateful to Mike Fisher because she changed my story all of a sudden. The card works in all countries, except in Mali and Nigeria. Mike Fisher's email address is blankatm156@gmail.com
