"Khalili’s working definition, plainspoken and powerful, anchors the book. Extractive Capitalism, she argues, is the system by which primary commodities (oil, iron ore, bauxite, coal, sand) are excavated, transported, processed and sold at markups that funnel profits to a narrow investor class while externalising costs on to workers, communities and the environment."

The kidnapping of #Khalili by the U.S. Government is a clear sign that the new regime doesn't caer about the law.

If U.S. citizens doesn't get ready and read the alarms, they might lose their long earned liberal and democratic traditions
