It was a documentary on The History Channel, about Carnegie, Vanderbilt, Rockefeller, JP Morgan, and the business men after the Civil War. It was a great history lesson on business, entrepreneurs, and the risk associated with business. If you want to see it, it is on history.com

Hierarchy is based on skill or materials which leads to the creation of class #marxisfullofshit

totally agree but i strongly believe that leaving the gold standard was the nail in the coffin. just look at the USD and gold now and historically compare. fuck the fed.

i'd like to leave you with a quote of probably the greediest shit i have ever read.....

"Competition is a sin." -John D. Rockefeller

The chairmen of the fed is appointed by elected officials just like the FDA. So the the people who leads them technically represent the people's choices much like the process to become a fed judge.  I think you referring to how lobbying corrupts the system but I would know from that vague quote. That my friend is the political system not a monopoly. Or maybe your talking about how much power they have which is like saying congress is a monopoly because they are the only ones that make the law

So you don't believe comunism will work because there cannot be any classes in comunism. Since Broshep defined as a relation to the mode of production for us then Under the communistic system every one has to be a producer and there cannot be any government admins

But are they not interconnected and dependent on eachother? You still have not combated any of my points just changed the subject which is why we have gone from the original purpose of the Thread to nazi German to comunism and then to social class

you'll have to remind me abou the original purpose of the thread because i have forgotten

social class is hierarchical. but not all hierarchies are based on social class.

in soviet union, managers were elected by the soviets from the factory floor.

the communist party was made up of mostly peasants and workers.

the bureaucracy was composed of working class, professional, and technical classes

jesus.......this is the exact same as you saying that IG Farben did not "create" the gas.......they "funded" it therefore are responsible for the creation of it lol why can't you wrap your head around that. no wonder they are not "combating" your points. if you are trying to spread lies by trolling then atleast try to avoid contradicting yourself like that.

Lol no social classes you mentioned like 10. The reason communist party is made up of peasants and worker Is because that all communism will ever produce. I don't know any Siberian farmer who was in the bureaucracy. Do you think Anyone in the bureaucracy would let their son work a field ? People don't give up power and wealth which is why hierarchical system turns into classes. The only way for a soviet to break the class system was to join the military And become a hero.

They did not fund it they invested a company who had A patent for a pesticide before the war. The company then subleased their patent during the war to two manufaures. That's like saying because I have a patent for nuclear reaction someone asked me to lease them the patent. They make a nuclear bomb which was unthought of at the time of the agreement. Now I am responsible for funding the nuclear bomb and killing thousands of people

this has nothing to do with the patent, kid. do you think the funds IG Farben provided came out of thin air? no the $ came from rockefeller's investment capital. stop telling lies.

How many times do I have to explain it. Its right in front of you lol it has everything to do with patents since they were aproched by two companies looking to lease igs patent. At the time zklon b was a pesticide with no military or biogical warfare uses. Even if they knew it was being shipped to concentration camps which I doubt zyklon b is used to Delouse (kill disease spreading bugs) prisioners cloths.

well you're admitting that you don't know what you're talking about by still bringing up patents........ patents have nothing to do with the oil/drug cartels turning a nation into a military machine.

it is fact that without the $ (rockefeller's $) IG Farben cartel could not have produced the gas and could never have gained as much power as they did. but hey, you're still denying that rockefeller even invested in them lol so you must deny that Standard IG Farben existed in the first place.

it sounds like you have everything figured out, continue to praise evil people and vilify people like the american prosecutors from the nuremberg trials.

So now your blaming ig for hitler breaking the armist. How many times do I have to tell you the company the ig owned shares in did not make zyklon only held the patents. The two companies who produced zyklon b are two separate entities from ig. The person who invented black powder that was originally used in fireworks should be held accountable for every person ever killed by a gun. Your stupid

ig farben is a CARTEL. dumb bastard. i know ig did not "make" it, they FUNDED it therefore are responsible for it being created.

Superior orders is a long held rule of law. The London character nullified this defense after the war 1945. As such the nuremburg trials did not recognize that defense. Since most of the crimes you are taking about happened before 1945 the yes lawfully they were wrongly sentenced. Does that make the things they did right no am I happy they rotted in jail yes but lawfully they were wrongly sentenced

What the fuck, guys. This thread had potential because of how bad ass this show is, but god damn you three and your arguing.

Read through the last three pages and it's 90% of political arguments. Why?


Discuss how amazing this show is.



Contribution: TMWBA really puts into perspective of how insane America was 100+ years ago. Could do whatever the fuck you wanted as long as it wasn't completely ridiculous. Like Vanderbilt blocking the only railroad bridge to get into NY to cause stock to plummet so he could commence a cheap hostile takeover of companies.

So much litigation nowadays. Oh well, it's for the better I like to think.

Ig is not a cartel the right word would be conglomerate. Zyklon b was used for the past 10 years before ig bought into the company. So they did not fund the development of the pesticide. Let see if I can get this right this time you're an idiot
