We Ignore The Lessons Of History About Corporations& Fascism.
Hitler& The Nazis never could have succeeded without material aid and comfort from American industries and banks.
FDR was powerless to stop our richest corporations. He kept their secret.

“Ford. Standard Oil, Chase Bank and members of the State Department were among those who shared in the spoils [of the Nazis].”
“We have Standard Oil shipping enemy fuel...for the Nazi occupation forces in France; Ford trucks transporting German troops; I.T.T.”
“I.T.T. helped supply the rocket bombs that marauded much of London ; and I.T.T. built the Focke-Wulfs that dropped those bombs.”
“The heartbreaking truth is that a number of financial& industrial figures of World War II and several members of the government served the cause of money before the cause of patriotism.While aiding the United States' war effort,they also aided Nazi Germany's.
“..the greatest American corporate leaders were in league w/Nazi corporations before& after Pearl Harbor...represented internationally by the National City Bank or by the Chase National Bank”
“As for Roosevelt, the Sphinx still keeps his secrets. That supreme politician held all of the forces of collusion and betrayal in balance, publicly praising those executives whom he knew to be questionable.”
With great skill,he never let the executives concerned know that he was on to them.By using the corporate leaders for his own war purposes as dollar-a-year men..he at once made winning the war a certainty and kept the public from knowing what it should not know.
“The Rockefellers owned Standard Oil of New Jersey, the German accounts of which were siphoned through their own bank, the Chase, as well as through the independent National City Bank of New York, which also handled Standard, Sterling Products,..SKF, and ITT.”
“Two executives of Standard Oil's German subsidiary were Karl Lindemann and Emil Helfferich, prominent figures in Himmler's Circle of Friends of the Gestapo-its chief financiers-and close friends and colleagues of the BIS's Baron von Schroder.”
“Goring's air force couldn't fly without [tetra ethyl lead].Only Standard,Du Pont& General Motors had the rights to it..The result was that Hitler's air force was rendered capable of bombing London& helped make it possible for the Japanese to wage World War II”
To this day, most ppl don’t realize I.G.Farben,in partnership w/Standard Oil built& designed Auschwitz, supplied the gas to kill its prisoners,& designed the death facilities.They used its slave labor along w/Ford,manufacturing synthetic tires for the Nazis
