Communism?

@CountScrofula Nope, common people being able to engage in trade to accumulate wealth is more of a danger to bankers than having a population sign up to government welfare schemes funded by loans from bankers charging interest on those loans paid for by the very tax payers these schemes were meant to financially help. Bankers love big government and their social schemes, it means bigger loans and certaintity they will be paid back due to taxation. All you get is a dissolved middle class with an increasing burden of tax and debt and increasing movement into poverty, let alone having the capital to build significant wealth to support their families.

@lynncelestial So which "big banks" in specific were enriched by the USSR and by how much and during what periods?

@CountScrofula I never used the term "big banks" so I am not sure why you are quoting me as having used that term. I am talking about specific bankers

After the failed 1905 Bolshevik revolution of 1905, Wall Street banker Jacob Schiff donated $1,000,000 which is the equivalent of $29,500,000 today, to freeing Bolshevik exiles. Schiff was the chairman of the Kuhn Loeb and Co bank which went on to co ordinate the Bolshevik raids on Russia that would follow. In 1917 Schiff spent $20,000,000 moving Trotsky and 90,000 bolsheviks to Russia to attain prominent positions in society and push for revolution. Communist Yakov Yurovski, who assassinated the Russian Imperial Romanov family acted on a chain of command which follows back to Schiff.

Olof Aschberg was a Swedish banker who also helped fund the bolshevik revolution. In gratitude, the bolsheviks allowed him to do business in the USSR. Olaf's grandson, Robert Aschberg is a former member of the Swedish Communist party "Klass Mot Klass" and is now the leader of "Expo".

Rothschild gave partial funding to Karl Marx

@lynncelestial OH okay I get it. This is just bland antisemitimism. The Jews are magically bankers and communists at the same time and are all plotting our downfall yadda yadda. Very interesting never heard it before.
