“The IMF, World Bank and WTO work together in an iron triangle to carry out the corporate agenda of privatization, deregulation, and 'free trade.' Although the World Bank and IMF were originally founded to be part of the United Nations, they have always been controlled by bankers and economists from the United States and Europe. ... Global economic justice is not just ethical; it is key to reversing the demise of our ecosystems, our spirituality, our connection with nature, our health, our children's future, and humanity itself.”
Juliette Beck, U.S. consumer/economic/trade activist
