Planning and waging aggressive war

President Trump's recent threats against Venezuela, Columbia, Mexico and the United States Constitution have us all worried. Even Republicans see the dangers in attacking foreign countries and being subject to endless guerrilla wars. And these military invasions would be against all international law. According to the Nuremberg Tribunal, "Planning and waging aggressive war is considered the supreme international crime."

Who would want our country to commit such war crimes? I think we will have to look beyond our two party system to figure out why our country would do such things. It's certainly not the working class, whose children will be asked to fight these wars. It's not the small business owners, whose companies will be hurt. But there is a race of human beings that stands above the rest of us, the county's uber-rich. They live their lives on separate planets, these 900 plus US individuals whose net worth is over a billion dollars.

They buy yachts that are longer than football fields. They have armies of servants as well as an endless cadre of lawyers and accountants to keep them from having to pay taxes. They end up with more than enough money to bribe our Congress and President.

Elon Musk contends that empathy is the "fundamental weakness of Western civilization." He has no empathy, of course, and simply can't feel for anyone besides himself. Our billionaire class are moral monsters, always willing to wage war for profit.

Anyone with more that a billion dollars should be put in jail.
