"Although cases of actual corruption do undoubtedly exist among legislators & government officials, they are not a major motivating factor. The truth, most likely, is that they did not regard it as bribery or as betrayal of their public trust; they did not think that their particular decision could matter one way or another, in the kinds of causeless choices they had to make." #QotD
*"So long as such a concept as 'the public interest' (or the 'social' or 'national' or 'international' interest) is regarded as a vlid principle to guide legislation -- lobbies and pressure groups will necessarily continue to exist. Since there is no entity as 'the public,' since the public is merely a number of individuals, the idea that 'the public interest' supersedes private interests and rights can have but one meaning: that the interests and rights of some individuals take precedence over the interests and rights of others.

How Adolf Hitler's Nazis Wave of Terror And Murder Crushed Europe
*Matthew Gault* *History, Europe* His henchmen were sinister at putting down dissent. Armies have long used prisoners as soldiers. Imperial France deployed the *Bat’ d’Af’* in the harshest of its colonies.

The former rebel prisoners fought and bled for the country they once shunned. The Nazis made liberal use of penal units, especially in the latter days of World War II. Soldiers with discipline problems and criminals from wi... more »

If that had happened, America would have had to fight a two-front war without the huge contributi... more »

"What Still Pulls On Your Soul?"
"You were born with potential. You were born with goodness and trust. You were born with ideals and dreams. You were born with greatness. You were born with wings.
