A danger we face by allowing commercial interests to effectively control our government is that, like the robber barons of wars past, they aren't necessarily opposed to wars, and actually see them as an adjunct to their bottom lines.

Wealthy folks don't get their hands, or their kids hands messed up, for the most part, in wars..

..that is the job of the struggling class, whose kids by and large see the military as attainable employment, especially as the pigs are eliminating more and more jobs to enhance their bottom lines

The German experience merely follows the political demands of their elites..

..let's don't nip this Ukraine thing in the bud if it costs us any money

..better to figure how to profit from it
