And my Grandpa became friends with polish army sargent who fled to England after Poland was invaded and he was fighting along side my Grandpa and they split them up coz he was Polish and they wouldn't let him near the POW's after what Germany did to Poland & its People...

Germany DID protect SOME people who would've been convicted of war crimes if they ever were accused of and put in front of a court but, lets be honest, Germany hadn't much to say in its own country untill the end of the cold war in the 90's. Even the U.S.A. and Britain let many trials slip under the rag if they could get a good deal. For example many German scientists, who were in one way or another associated with Eugenics etc. actually got of the hook by keep working with the Allies. Giving them informations about certain new inventions (much of this experimental progress was gained by using prisoners as test subjects but who gives a fuck right?) etc.

HTHAMMACK1 We are here on this planet, in this life for 80 years on average, more or less. To be able to live a life worth living, we work 40 hours a week for 50 years. During this time, we have a family, buy a home, furnish it, maintain the utilities, securitize our world with insurance and savings, and when the weekend comes, we may watch TV and have a cook out with the family. This is a struggle for some more than others due to socioeconomic factors, education and health. The view I have is that we have been turned into consumers who are supporting the wealthiest business owners. It is my opinion that this type of lifestyle is not mandatory. Working our lives away, destroying our health in the process, to spend a couple hours a week relaxing was someone's idea who would benefit from it. Working us to death has benefits. There is no reason why we should have to work this hard. Lower the cost of living, replace billionaire CEOs and corrupt politicians with board members who are elected after being vetted for conflict of interest and allow the people to see the heaven on earth - the seven wonders of the world, the tourist resorts should be made into family parks with high speed rails and next-to-nothing fares and hotel costs. The human beings on this planet were not born to serve selfish and self-adoring mega-rich families in their opulent lifestyles. More now than ever, we see their failures, that they are incompetent and unworthy of this life in the lap of luxury. We would respect our planet more if we could enjoy it. Those who designed this "life" we have are no brighter than any of us, as one celebrity stated. And these people, living in chateaus and penthouses, have undoubtedly never broke a sweat during a day of work in their entire life. 3rd generation spoiled brats who create secret clubs or societies as if they are college kids in a frat house, making decisions to send millions of people into a state of war or starvation is what we have. So think about that.
