I fear that most who throw similarities to WW2 really don't know their history, as it is more like WW1. Gilded Age 2 Robber Barons (like Jamie Dimon, leading the Boeing 'too big to fail' capital rescue fund) are just like those in 1914 who said 'we can't have war, it will hurt shareholder returns! Don't the masses see that is not in 'their' ('my') enlightened self-interest?!?!' As you well know - Tech has changed a lot over just the last 20, 30, 45 years, but, human nature has changed very very little. BUT - 'nukes of November' are much much worse than 'guns of November.'.....
