The Bush family are experts at vulture capitalism; smashing things then selling them for profit.

Each war is the same.
But here in this graveyard it's still no mans land
The countless white crosses in mute witness stand
To man's blind indifference to his fellow man
And a whole generation were butchered and damned
.....
And I can't help but wonder oh Willy McBride
Do all those who lie here know why they died
Did you really believe them when they told you the cause
Did you really believe that this war would end wars
Well the suffering, the sorrow, the glory, the shame
The killing and dying it was all done in vain
Oh Willy McBride it all happened again
And again, and again, and again, and again

Partially with the Carlyle Group. I believe that the war debt they have amassed, trillions of dollars, will be the lever through which they take Michigan's Koch-emplaced "emergency manager" smash-and-grab legislation to the rest of the country. "There's no money! Better sell everything off, even to China." Watch them get rich in the process of such forced "austerity" (meaning, the little person pays for it).

His support of people in uniform is stirring.
