On the 75th anniversary of D-Day, let's remember the dangers of nationalism

On the 75th anniversary of D-Day, let's remember the dangers of nationalism
Wars are a product of political and religious authoritarianism (both private and state capitalism). Adding democracy to religion and the workplace ends the drive to emigrate and resistance to immigration, as well as to currency arbitrage. Internationalizing employee ownership makes war passe. Higher wages and adequate tax child tax credits ends the popular misery that forces young people to seek military service as a way out, as well as the need to find an enemy for the populace to hate. It seems Marx was not wrong after all.
