And that right there is the problem. Most people don't understand!
"It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning." - Henry Ford
There are many reasons it goes unpunished. For example. War-profiteering is window dressed as a good cause. Like George idiot Bush freeing the Iraqi people. Also when you understand no one audits the Federal reserve or the Vatican or super rich people in general. It is easy. Even if they were to audit it, they send their own people to say that everything looks legit.lol that's just two of many off the top of my head. Another is they always have scapegoats to take the fall.
How are they blameless? They make the rules, they make the laws that allow this to happen. Maybe the "people"should hire a CEO to downsize government. lol First thing they can do is cut government pay for politicians.
