without wishing to watch another wave of insane posts on religion, I wonder what the numbers guys were coming up with when they tried to figure the cost of openly dissenting /resisting the Fascist States in the drive to imprison and/or exterminate tens of millions of people.
"Well Popey, we figure we took a major hit when Vlad and Kobay took over Church property, even if we was just partial shareholders in that venture. It may play well with the Old Man, if you condemn the camps and killings and resist, but based on the loses in Russia we can say the European market will be pasted hard, and you are going to see a shrinkage of 25 percent in net European asset holdings. This will also hit our average annual returns pretty hard, which are already down substantially due to the War. It leaves us wide open to another Protestant surge in market share at our expense.
"Unless you think the Old Man will actively take your side on this 'compassion' gig, we suggest you 'can it'. If the paperhanger wins, and we are caught showing signs of resistance, well, you can kiss it all good by real quick. Best to bless and deny. If that pudgy punk from Downing actually pulls off a win, which we feel is a 10 to 1 longshot, Hitler is the Capo you will be contending with in less than five years. You best stonewall and save resources not lives."
Dig deep enough and everything can always be explained in a rational way based on the most common denominators.....power, and money.
Greed may be good Gordon, but it's killed more people than racism.
