To compel a man to furnish funds for the propagation of ideas he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical. Commerce with all nations, alliance with none, should be our motto. Thomas Jefferson

WAR is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.
― Smedley Butler, War Is a Racket

The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; the second is war. Both bring a temporary prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunists.  Ernest Hemingway
