LaRouche's Jan. 22 Webcast:
`The Issue Is Bankruptcy'

Lyndon LaRouche gave a webcast address to an audience in Washington, D.C., and internationally, over the Internet, on Jan. 22.

...I shall devote the presentation preceding the question-and-answer discussion period, to the most crucial issue facing the United States government now, and the world as a whole. And the issue is: bankruptcy. The fact of the matter is, that the United States is bankrupt. The U.S. system is bankrupt. The U.S. government is bankrupt. And every part of the world is also bankrupt. Not only does this state of bankruptcy exist, but the moment at which the decisions have to be made to bring this problem under control is {now}. That's why the priority. The other aspect of this thing, is that very few people, including the present administration of the United States, the current President's administration, know how to deal with this problem.

The Anatomy of Russian Capitalism, by Stanislav M. Menshikov
March 23, 2007
—EIR News Service announced the publication of
The Anatomy of Russian Capitalism,
by Professor Stanislav M. Menshikov.

Translated from the Russian by Rachel Douglas, the book is an authoritative study of the Russian economy during the first 15 years after the break-up of the Soviet Union. The Preface, by EIR founder and contributing editor Lyndon LaRouche, titled, "Russia's Next Step," poses the need for U.S. policy-makers to study and grasp the "disease" presented in this book, since it represents "an economic global pandemic which we must all join to defeat."

  • LaRouche's Jan. 22 Webcast:
    'The Issue Is Bankruptcy'

    Lyndon LaRouche told the Washington and online audience that the most crucial problem facing President Barack Obama is the bankruptcy of the global system. The solution, he stressed, is to place the financial system into bankruptcy reorganization, and to carry out Franklin Roosevelt's intention to eliminate the British Empire. To do this, LaRouche declared: 'Put the Federal Reserve system into receivership. Move to create a National Bank of the United States in the Hamiltonian tradition. Use the National Bank as a way of cleaning up the Federal Reserve system, and use it for the kinds of things that Roosevelt would have done, were he alive today, to do it.' In the discussion period, LaRouche fielded questions from Russia, Belarus, Pakistan, and from the team of economic policy advisors gathering around the new American President.
