The last time the working classes of the world were starting to make solid progress, they were rewarded with two world wars. The rich and powerful of the world have proven time and time again that they would rather thin the herd than pay their fair share to the people. Why give up more of your stuff when you have all the power? Why not just start a war, let them all kill each other, and then whoever survives gets a proportionally larger piece than before the war? The rich hate having to give up anything. War is a theater for them. A means to keep us all in line. The russian people and the american people are all pawns in a game. Neither we nor the russian people are the enemy, both of our governments are.
