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

It Is Dressed Into Speeches About Patriotism, Love Of Country...but The Profits...skyrocket.

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.

For A Great Many Years, As A Soldier, I Had A Suspicion That War Was A Racket; Not Until I Retired To Civil Life Did I Fully Realize It.

I Helped In The Raping Of Half A Dozen Central American Republics For The Benefit Of Wall Street. The Record Of Racketeering Is Long... Looking Back On It, I Feel I Might Have Given Al Capone A Few Hints. The Best He Could Do Was To Operate His Racket In Three City Districts. We Marines Operated On Three Continents.

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.
