...the War (wwi) Cost Your Uncle Sam

I Helped Make Mexico, Especially Tampico, Safe For American Oil Interests In 1914. I Helped Make Haiti And Cuba A Decent Place For The National City Bank Boys To Collect Revenues In. I Helped In The Raping Of Half A Dozen Central American Republics For The Benefits Of Wall Street. The Record Of Racketeering Is Long. I Helped Purify Nicaragua For The International Banking House Of Brown Brothers In 1909-1912. I Brought Light To The Dominican Republic For American Sugar Interests In 1916. In China I Helped To See To It That Standard Oil Went Its Way Unmolested.

My Mental Faculties Remained In Suspended Animation While I Obeyed The Orders Of The Higher-ups. This Is Typical With Everyone In The Military Service.

I Served In All Commissioned Ranks From Second Lieutenant To Major-general. And During That Period, I Spent Most Of My Time Being A High Class Muscle-man For Big Business, For Wall Street And For The Bankers. In Short, I Was A Racketeer, A Gangster For Capitalism.

War Is Just A Racket. A Racket Is Best Described, I Believe, As Something That Is Not What It Seems To The Majority Of People. Only A Small Inside Group Knows What It Is About. It Is Conducted For The Benefit Of The Very Few At The Expense Of The Masses.

Why Don't Those Damn Oil Companies Fly Their Own Flags On Their Personal Property-maybe A Flag With A Gas Pump On It.
