Elvis Costello And The Attractions - I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down (Single)

"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."

-Hermann Goering at the Nuremberg Trials

Of course, if you can then underfund the rehabilitation, treatment or care of the soldiers, airmen or sailors that are sent to do the leaders bidding such that they need the charity of the common people just to exist, then all the better.

How many times over can you be made to pay for war? Tax, charity, lives...
