Wow, but not in the least surprising.

First thing to come to mind was the story of Little Orphan Annie whose parents died from the Spanish Flu, later revised to a terrible fire, and who was eventually rescued from an awful orphanage by a man. Daddy Warbucks was a mega-rich "benevolent" war profiteer. He's portrayed as having been a working man before being "self-made" through munitions contracts with the Government.

Imagine the number of orphans after the Great War of countless soldiers and civilians on both sides dying from munitions, fire, and the ravages of some kind of illness, (now less attributed to a virus and more to electrification and vaccines, unofficially. It's difficult to know with any certainty.)

The story of LOA was about resuscitating the reputation of the ultra-rich war profiteers as charitable and philanthropic leaders of society and to promote unfettered capitalism as a virtue, where in fact their free capitalism was simply insider collusion to steal and cheat on a nearly unimaginable scale during a genocidal war.

War, what's it good for? Blood money.

The buying of all those war supplies on the back of the taxpayers reminds me of the last five years when govts. were buying millions of doses of c-v jabs to prepare for the massive pandemic. Here in Canada Trudeau purchased six jabs for every single person! (I generously offered mine to T himself or anyone else who wanted them.) Whether or not these warehouses full of jabs actually existed, guess who footed the fill for them?????? And if they did exist, what was done with this toxic waste after it had expired? Poured out into the public water system perhaps?
