25.  Thanks, I've been at it for years
Edited on Sat Oct-11-03 09:21 PM by 9215
I'm piecing together the material to show how the dynamic of war profiteering since the Civil War has threatened democracy and how industrialization has increased the centralization of corporate power to make the problem grow exponentially. Corporations always had undue influence, but there was a counterbalance until the CIA came along. The CIA set about to complete the task of corporate control of society in the political (Left--Right struggle), cultural (the arts), economic, and social (kulturcampf, drugs), Media sectors.

The idea of publishing was put on hold after 9/11.


I've read Tarpley and looked up many of his footnotes. All of them are dead on. If you really want to gain perspective look a few of them up and find out about the "Economic Warfare" unit of the Treasury Dept. and why the US military couldn't get enough plastic bomber nose bubbles from Dupont because, ostensibly, Dupont had a restricted licensing aggreement from the German company with the patents. That's just one example. Dupont was the main muscle behind the attempted FDR hit.
