      That’s part of what Sarah Kendzior has argued for a decade or more. US companies and klepocrats (though I repeat myself) know that the only thing that can match their weight is a powerful federal government. Turning the US into 50 warring little nations will make it easier to carve up. It is undoubtedly the same case for a strong European Union, which is why the right’s other “big project” is to destabilize the EU and attempt to get it to disband.

  For whom? Even those making nuclear weapons, have a high chance of dying in the war, have their possessions destroyed, their investments ruined.
