Thanks for covering this. These debts are responsible for a lot of the suffering in the world. It's also directly related to the immigration crises all over the world. When these poor countries have economies that don't work, people have no choice but to leave, and where will they go? To the same countries extracting their countries wealth through debt. It's important that the citizens in developed nations know this. If you want to curb unsustainable illegal immigration, you must do something about the exploitation of these poor countries using debt and other forms of economic manipulation and sabotage.
It is called the Anti christ world economy a.k.a Al- Massih-DADJAL, wanting to rule the world from Jerusalem. To rule the world he has to do a number of things and debt is ONE of his most crucial weapon for globalization. When you are enslaved and captured you’ve lost your freedom to oppose him.
@@jessicayoung1190…yes and they want to rule the world from Jerusalem a.k.a the Anti-Christ state of Israel. The prophet Muhammad (puh) calls him Al messih Dajjal, the Dajjal the false Massiah.
Islam suggests the balanced financial system where private property is protected, there is free market, no fiat money but gold or at least backed up by gold, usury prohibited, money is not commodity, everyone having more than minimum is obliged to pay 2,5% to the needy. Voluntary alms are encouraged.
It's a shame there are six billion people live in the Global South, only 28k watched this extremely important and educational segment. I am well educated and I pay a lot of attention to economic growth of the world but I didn't understand the debt issue before.

Your clearly stated explanations are greatly appreciated, I'm from Argentina and this is a common topic for everyday talks but even then it's not well understood by most people, the media and politicians make a deliberate effort to keep us ignorant of what's really happening with the economy to obfuscate the source of our problems using gross oversimplifications.
What the global south needs to do is establish its own international bank, totally separate from western interests, which will lend developing nations infrastructure loans on far better terms than the IMF, World Bank or vulture funds and other predatory western financial institutions. Total disengagement from the west should be the longer term objective: the global south has the natural resources necessary to function and indeed thrive free of the pernicious western interference and control.
That may or may not work,money in itself is useless, money doesn't make you a genius,money doesn't create anything of value,human ingenuity and labor does,if i gave you a billion dollars would you be able to recreate the same level of inventive success that Elon musk did or wright brothers or many others,money can help but its not the decisive factor in success.

Thank you very much Ben for your independent & truthful journalism! As George Orwell said, 'in times of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act'...
One’s truth is a representation of that individual’s reality. When the population suffers from mass formation psychosis, their collective truth is that which deceives them into believing in the righteousness of their existence; Unfortunately, this self-denial renders a culture that becomes self-destructive due to its utopian desires towards a ‘unity’ of systemic control in what has become an anti-Social State. Unipolar hegemony is simply a representation of this belief system. Our Death Cult of Western Civilization is endemic with narcissism and sociopathy as a result.
Clear and important explanation. We must all raise our consciousness on how the systems (and financial capitalism more specifically these days) work to extract wealth for a small elite. Keep on!
The only scarcity in capitalism is money-capital. All other real scarce commodities are priced accordingly. In order for price to benefit the owners of capital at the non owners' expense, money must be scarce. This is one big reason why China is such a threat to the West - China's money is sovereign money - owned by the state. It isn't privately owned, as it is in the West. Capitalism doesn't create nearly as much inequality when the state owns the money supply and central bank.
@@VB-ds4bp It's not about power. Capitalism is just the latest form of an economy for the private property owners. Central banking was a development in the process of capital consolidating itself, enriching itself, becoming more 'powerful' if you like. Once money and land are completely owned by private entities, any economy becomes a plantation. 1913 was the formal crowning in that process. It was inevitable. The lesson to be learned is that the vast majority of people in the world are not property owners and are therefore slaves to those who do own property. This must stop. It transcends nations and ethnicity. Social class has two categories - those who own and those who don't own. The non owners must come together and take control of the planet. We must create a mutiny. No more serving the owners. All people must be owners.
@@VB-ds4bp Yes, the rot started in 1913, for the common people but a huge gain for the Capitalists. The bible warned about usury but the Christian Capitalists ignored the warning.
@@peternycyou say only the government owning all things is superior then you see we must all become owners. Government needs people to function and you see no paradox, you don’t see that your advocating for far less owners than there already are unless there’s more to your plan you haven’t mentioned
@@malachih3 of course it’s difficult for you to understand, being that you have been brought up in a brainwashing capitalist regime; that the state (“government”) is a tool of the dominant class in society. Government is either constituted by the oligarchy (be they kings, lords, or capitalists) or it is constituted by the workers/masses. It does not have an existence all by itself. Some states constituted by capitalist-oligarchs May give concessions (bribes) to the working class to prevent their overthrow (like the social “democracies” of Europe in the early 20th century that took hold following the Great October Revolution), but they nevertheless remain established for the ultimate benefit of the ruling class; the capitalist-Oligarchy. The state organized by workers and ruling in their interest, can and should hold property in the interest of the dominant class; the worker collectives. So therefore the state holding property in the interest of the collective is the superior, just, and proper way for society to function.
@@7swordmary567 I'm afraid the damage was already done with perpetual growth thesis put forward by Milton et. al. .... (!) How can one argue for perpetual growth on ONE finite planet?

Wow you don’t read the Bible it every 50 years all debts, land, slave which the Bible didn’t have cattle slavery but debt slaves and those that build after a war and it was to be let go every 50 year the holy day was called a jubilee and that a real jubilee not the fake stuff they do now. You may be confusing the 7 year sabbath with jubilee.
This would require accountability in the Balance of Global Trade so that interest collection is forced to be ‘Structurally Adjusted’ to actual productivity gains and purchase power parity, rather than the fictional/financialized ‘Rentier gains’ that extract wealth despite their continuous failure to perform as promised by Western Governments and Institutions. The current wartime operations across all MIC actors suggests that accountability is not possible without Systemic Change of our monetary systems, systems of Social Management and Institutional Governance. {I.e. full-stack Civilization Overthrow, which is currently in development}
Oh, I'm not qualified in finance or economics to respond to your answer. Nevertheless, I think you're saying that: while the world has an imperialist empire it makes for instability, and so it would be necessary for the world to be at peace, with a worldwide blanket ban on sanctions with every country having it's own sovereignty. You mention the MIC. I guess the MIC is a hurdle that stands in the way, I means that the Neocons would need to stop manufacturing consent for war in pursuit of billions of dollars worth of arm sales. Anyway, being that the world is on the verge of nuclear Armageddon it probably is too late to prevent debt traps for the global south countries.
