- It’s one thing for global institutions to be corrupt, trying to help the poor but failing along the way. It’s another thing entirely for the intent of these institutions to take from the weak and give to the strong.
- It has been argued that the World Bank and IMF’s death toll belongs in the same ballpark as that of Stalin and Mao. Whatever the final death toll, two things are certain: these are crimes against humanity, and no World Bank or IMF official will ever go to prison. There will be no accountability or justice.
