John Perkins, author of Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, criticizes the lack of "change" he sees in the wake of Barack Obama's election, and calls on the American public to continue actively challenging their leadership. "It has to be We the People," he says. "We can't just vote in an Obama ... and then sit back and watch Monday Night Football."

Economic hit man John Perkins has confessed the sins of predatory politicians and analyzed the reasons for the current meltdown. A reformed economist, he warns that returning to our "normal" blueprints for the global economy would prove disastrous. Perkins details the steps to transform "the mutant form of capitalism" into a system based on sustainability and justice. - Commonwealth Club of California
John Perkins spent three decades as an Economic Hit Man, business executive, author, and lecturer. He lived and worked in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, and North America. Then he made a decision: he would use these experiences to make the planet a better place for his daughter's generation. Today he teaches about the importance of rising to higher levels of consciousness, to waking up - in both spiritual and physical realms - and is a champion for environmental and social causes. He has lectured at universities on four continents, including Harvard, Wharton, and Princeton.
