A New Bretton Woods:
Time To Reverse Shultz's
Destruction of Exchange Controls
Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. gave these opening remarks to an April 7 webcast, sponsored by the LaRouche Political Action Committee, in Washington, D.C. Many people are coming to the realization, LaRouche said, that we need a new financial architecture. "We can not continue under the present one. What is undecided in the minds of many, is what that architecture should be. Many have opinions, more or less superficial in many cases. But there is no consensus, at present, on what has to be done. Now, my function here, today, is to summarize the issue, in such a form that the discussion might be structured, rather than chaotic, as it tends to be, in the United States today."
