Why don’t business people stop the White House from using military methods, then?
Stopping them is a different thing from starting them. I think a lot
of business types defer to the state except on things that matter to
them directly.
As for the rest of what I said - the City opposed British entry into
WW I, New York capitalists wanted to appease the South in the 1850s,
there’s little evidence the oil industry pushed for the invasion of
Iraq - what part is untrue? The first two instances are historical
fact. The third is based only on a lack of evidence - but do you know
of anything to the contrary?
