He was funneling cash to the Nazis. Funding different things actually. What does that say his offspring for more than several generations hold major political positions?
-- what is sez is thst our Justice system was f-ed up even back then (so that's nothing new) Grampa Bush should of gone to jail for plotting a coup (Butler ratted him out 2 Roosevelt) he should of gone to jail for trading with the enemy (funneling things 2 the Nazis) lnstead he went 2 the Senate
& his grandson only became Prez bcuz the Suprem Court put his loservass there
And the future court will be even less critical of overreach .. at least from the moneyed side of things.
That is the objective of the Koch family and others -- that government represent wealth and institutional power related to wealth over all else. In such a pathological order, no human suffering can ever be in excess, and if people show signs of dissent, they can die. We could end up with the sort of regime characteristic of some countries in southern South America during the Dirty Wars. In Chile a commonplace execution of opponents of the regime just after the 1972 coup was shooting -- first the feet, then the knees, then the genitals , then the abdomen and finally the heart to maximize the agony. Argentina had a somewhat clever way of eliminating 'troublesome people -- tricking them to get into a military airplane with promises that they could go to an unobjectionable country (let us say Italy, as about half of all Argentinians are of partial or full Italian origin, or Israel if they were Jewish). While on the plane they would get injections of 'vaccines' allegedly mandated in the countries in which they were to go while over the open ocean. Those 'vaccinations' would be knock-out drugs, and the sedated dissident would be cast off the plane.
Maybe it would be different in a fascistic America. The craziness of Trump would be gone in favor of someone who piously intones 'Christian values' on economics and work. I certainly hope that I will not be around in such a new high-tech feudalism that sounds like the setting of a Flash Gordon serial.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
