Except the modern day oligarchs are too stupid and too greedy to actually take advantage of it.

Armies don’t come cheap.

Well they do when no one has any money. You would be surprised how cheaply a person will sell their soul when they dont have 2 pennies to rub together.

What a heel turn. The Party of the "war on Christmas" has decided to go on the offensive, cancelled Christmas.

As a Jew who hates Christmas and how much it dominates half the year...I 100% support Trump and the GOP killing Christmas!

Hell, if they outlawed "Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time" I might donate $5 to the cause!

I mean, I understand that. I just think you underestimate how stupid and greedy these people are. Armies need equipment, training, maintenance, resources etc. All that requires money, money they don’t want to spend.

They’re real life min maxers. They’re trying to achieve the highest score with the least amount of effort and the least amount shared.

Plus, they’re stupidly arrogant. They think they’re geniuses at everything. Listen to someone who actually knows how to fight? For how much? Pfft they’ll do it themselves.

And then they’ll get overrun by a well organized and trained group.

They will be skipped if they play hardball. The oligarchs will give the homeless a few meals and a gun and let the chips fall where they may. Long term it wont go well for them but as you say, they are stupid.

They won’t even really do that. Their idea is to bug off to a bunker, hire a couple of Navy SEALs as protection and wait for us to die.
