Either Way They Vote Americans Remain Suckered Into Being a Worldwide Genocidal Killing Machine

of a psychiatrical clinic...Perhaps the commonest and plainest

evidence of an unbalanced mentality is to be seen in a certain

fearsome and feverish credulity with which a large proportion of

Veblen assumed depression to be the normal condition in a

business-enterprise economy, to be relieved in periods of excitation

caused by stimuli not intrinsic to the system like war and expansion

abroad. Veblen saw the modern business leader as essentially a latter-day predatory warrior. He saw the American working class that, far from wishing to abolish the economic system under which it worked, sought largely to occupy a more rewarding and honorific role within it. In short, he saw emulation of the criminal ruling class, not revolutionary agitation, as the most persistent motive force of the working class in America. [Thorstein Veblen by Douglas Dowd, 1966]

Veblen's observation is born out by Americans always having been willing to follow criminal orders and bomb, invade and occupy other people's lands the world over.

By the exploitation of the many, a ruthless few have amassed large amounts of capital by which they dominate mainstream narratives and compromise elected and governmental officials, thereby gaming the system for their benefit. Around the world, the U.S. empire wages perpetual war, hot and cold, overt and covert, including military brinksmanship with the nuclear power, the Russian Federation." Phil Rockstroh
