When I first started working for the sociopaths and mercenaries in Washington, D.C. in 1958 I had to keep reminding myself it was real, not some nightmare.

There can be no argument that sociopaths in their incomprehensible quest to obtain more wealth than they can manage will improve the conditions in one country at the expense of the working class in another; but that is just a by-product of the sociopath getting what he or she wanted.

Peasants will always offer to compromise with sociopaths using the coward’s logic that something is better than nothing. Repeatedly throughout history, the peasants most often gave up something for nothing.

The trouble is the truth isn’t an easy sell. The herd has always, and will forever, choose the nice smooth level expressway that sociopaths promise is just around the corner instead of the rocky twisting uphill path that men like Carl Sagan and Yervant Terzian suggest.

These rich landowners were in Philadelphia trying to decide how best to protect their fortunes from those greedy kings in Europe and how best to exercise their God-given right of control over the peasant.

The U.S. should print on its money, "In Guns We Trust" and use pictures of aircraft carriers, F-16 and tanks instead of politicians. But that would undermine the very foundation that hypocrisy stands on.
