LaRouche’s First 2002 Webcast: ‘And Now, A Year Later’  

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

Presidential candidate Lyndon LaRouche, in his first Washington webcast in 2002, made his commitment to solving the crisis facing the world: “I can offer you the credibility of my success as a forecaster, which is—I can promise you, I can assure you—is unmatched.... I can offer you my knowledge and commitment to try to attempt to use the influence of the United States, to bring about a reorganization of a worthless, bankrupt monetary system. I can promise you the use of my knowledge ... to bring about the economic mobilization to restore this nation, and other nations, to what they should be. I can promise you that I am committed to not an empire, but to what some people call a multi-polar world: a community of principle among perfectly sovereign nation-states, which I think is the only way this planet can be managed. And I can promise you that I’ll fight now, and I’ll fight until I die. I will not quit.”

2001: The U.S. Economy’s Bad Year Points to Worse Ahead

by Richard Freeman and John Hoefle

The year 2001 will be remembered as the year they had to admit, “LaRouche was right”—about Enron, about Argentina, and about the U.S. debt bubble. 2001 was a year in which the economic indicators which were designed to only go up, began—often inexplicably to the disciples of Economics 101—to go down. The “expansion” turned into a “recession,” which is actually a depression.

Argentina: A Lesson From Lazare Carnot

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. submitted this paper to a meeting entitled “Brazil-Argentina: The Moment of Truth.” “We must outflank the utopian warriors, by using our weapon, economic growth, against their weapon, lunatic destruction. If we do not find the courage to defend economic growth against the demands that we dismantle essential elements of our economies, we, by our own negligence, would have surrendered already to the utopian reign of general destruction of humanity as a whole.”
