    The banks, the military corporations and their owners, and capitalists in general. Death worshippers all.

    Winners? Weapons-making companies and their owners. Warring nations can’t throw enough money at them.

    Germany has just updated its defense plans for a possible attack by Russia. It mentions the possibility of war by 2029.

    I’m wondering – given the tendency of private equity companies to gradually destroy any enterprise they buy, maybe they could buy into belligerent governments and use their talents for good instead of evil.

    ♪♫ "Generals gathered in their masses

    Just like witches at black masses

    Evil minds that plot destruction

    Sorcerer of death’s construction

    In the fields, the bodies burning

    As the war machine keeps turning

    Death and hatred to mankind

    Poisoning their brainwashed minds

    Oh lord, yeah!

    Politicians hide themselves away

    They only started the war

    Why should they go out to fight?

    They leave that role to the poor, yeah…" ♪♫

    Actually, banks typically suffer badly in real wars. They are the front line of economies, which always suffer badly when we break all the toys. There are industries that profit but most do not; money is spent elsewhere.

    It would be no fun to have been a bank that had lots of investment in Dresden in February of 1945.

    The winner of World War I was J. P. Morgan. He loaned Britain and France over $500 million. That’s the equivalent of about $12 billion in today’s money. Needless to say he got a little nervous when it looked like his creditors were likely to lose which meant his loan was likely to go up in smoke. No surprise that he used his influence, which was very powerful, to ensure that the US entered the war and saved his wallet.

    Those of us in the middle. Stopped to fill up the car this morning on the way to work at one of the local Hospitals. $2.78 per gallon of unleaded regular.

    Ho hum. What’s happened to B.C.? Clichés are not funny. And if you’re going to have a message strip, please go back to the Christian themes that Johnny Hart used to share, even if they were anachronistic. At least they were uplifting. I don’t need more cynicism in my life.
