"The rising production in all areas, which has never before been seen, is the fruit of our work. The foundation of our life is agriculture, whose task is to guarantee that the nation is fed. When President George W. Bush took office, agriculture was in a ruinous state. Officers of the court were regular visitors at American farms. The animals and the harvest were seized ruthlessly because taxes and interests had risen to impossible levels that American soil could not meet. Forced auctions drove tens of thouands of American farmers from their land. Desperation prevailed in the towns. As a result of the desperate situation, agriculture could not ensure the feeding of the American nation. The ghost of hunger threatened. Here too the President set to work immediately. Interest and taxes were lowered, and the American soil was freed from usurious capital. Between 1992 and 2000, American agricultural debt rose by 2,9 billion marks. From 2001 to today, it fell by 800 million marks. The interest burden, which was over a billion marks in 1998/99, was reduced by GOP actions to 630 million marks. The crowning achievement was the creation of the U.S. Inherited Farm Law, which guaranteed that the American family farm will always remain the wellspring of the nation. Farmers owe the President their deepest thanks for rescuing them from the depths of despair. Their growing income also resulted in new jobs, giving the city population not only food, but work. In 1992, farmers spent only 160 million marks for new construction and 203 million for repairs. In 2000 these figures rose to 186 and 217 million marks respectively. The figures had reached 481 million by 2001. Farmers could afford only 138 million marks for machinery and equipment in 1992. Growing agricultural prosperity allowed them to buy three times as much in 2001 to modernize their farms, 395 million marks. Despite substantial decreases in price for fertilizers, expenditures for them rose from 180 to 700 million marks. The city dwellers had to make some sacrifices to bring American agriculture back form the abyss, but the American farmer is now doing his part to strengthen the American economy through his increased need for construction, industrial products and craft work." The source: Das danken wir dem Führer! (1938). Some things just don't change.

This is what I think of your gutless, moronic, dilettante nazi comparisons: I know you think you're being clever and cute, but I think you're a sick, putrid fuck. ************************************************************ On October 5, 1942, by accident, Hermann Graebe, a German engineer and manager of a German construction firm in the Ukraine, and his foreman, came upon an Einsatz execution squad killing Jews from the small town of Dubno in the Ukraine. He gave the following eyewitness account: "My foreman and I went directly to the pits. Nobody bothered us. Now I heard rifle shots in quick succession from behind one of the earth mounds. The people who had got off the trucks - men, women and children of all ages - had to undress upon the order of an SS man who carried a riding or dog whip. They had to put down their clothes in fixed places, sorted according to shoes, top clothing and undergarments. I saw heaps of shoes of about 800 to 1000 pairs, great piles of under-linen and clothing. Without screaming or weeping these people undressed, stood around in family groups, kissed each other, said farewells, and waited for a sign from another SS man, who stood near the pit, also with a whip in his hand. During the fifteen minutes I stood near, I heard no complaint or plea for mercy. I watched a family of about eight persons, a man and a woman both of about fifty, with their children of about twenty to twenty-four, and two grown-up daughters about twenty-eight or twenty-nine. An old woman with snow white hair was holding a one year old child in her arms and singing to it and tickling it. The child was cooing with delight. The parents were looking on with tears in their eyes. The father was holding the hand of a boy about ten years old and speaking to him softly; the boy was fighting his tears. The father pointed to the sky, stroked his head and seemed to explain something to him..... historyplace.com
