Anybody interested in Project Paperclip should probably stay away from the Jacobson book

Thank you for your cooperation. See, out in Boeing, the Pensions, the
defined pensions are closing down. The organized will need to fund
themselves through a contribution pension. The cooperation of the
machinists, and of the engineers is necessary. Could the Nazis launch
rockets without them? Could Washington launch drones? It was tougher
in many respects, for the Nazis, for Nixon, then for Bush-Obama (Dick
C) because in Germany the Engineers were anti-Capital, but we have to
remember how the culture, its Romanticism was married to
Science/Technic. And this is what has happened in the US, with the
baby-boomer romantics married to the computer and the bomb. So, to
make yourself an exception, clean of guilt and complicity, is
impossible. Indeed, it is counter-cultural claims, and resistance,
such Marching and Maximizing of the preterit pseudo-intellectual, with
his self-righteousness, his seat at the Right hand of Nature and
Humankind, that drives the Machine of State. So technology, yes even
the rockets, are not weapons of the Elect, but weapons of mass
destruction. Weapons that will blow us all to kingdom come. This is a
threat to the planet, to Nature, to all of us here i the Orpheus
Theater/Theatre. Why not love the bomb. Worship it like skinless
pointy heads beneath the planet of the apes?  Come on....don't you
love it madly?
