Regulatory capture at work. If you're the second-richest man in the world and a darling of the far right to boot, they'll let you do pretty much whatever you want.

The inventor of Sarin Gas. Supported by the Nazi regime and incumbent Government, probably had a few people that didn't think his goals were a good idea.

I needed to check twice to which Comment you are replying. Because what you say has nothing at all to do with anything I said.

Is your only connection to this that I'm German?

You're German?what does that have to do with the U S government propping up people willing to test horrific things on people.

Being German I'd think you'd appreciate the noted similarities more than most.

Grab them by the brain. You can do anything.
