Скачать или смотреть Profiteers: How Five Families Made Billions from Every American War

Five American wars. Five powerful families. Every single time, they got richer.
This isn’t theory. It isn’t speculation. It’s government contracts. Public records. Congressional reports.
While millions died on battlefields, the same dynasties quietly turned war into a repeatable business model—one more profitable than oil, more reliable than banking, and more protected than any monopoly in history.
For over two centuries, war hasn’t just shaped American history. It has financed it.
THE WAR PROFIT DYNASTIES DuPont Explosives and chemicals. From the Revolutionary War to Iraq—over 220 years of war profits.
Rockefeller Oil and fuel. From the Civil War through Afghanistan—160 years of supplying energy to war.
Morgan War financing. From the Spanish-American War through World War II—turning conflict into debt and interest.
Lockheed Martin (and its predecessors) Aircraft and weapons. From World War I to today—over a century of defense contracts.
Halliburton Military logistics. From World War II to the War on Terror—feeding, fueling, and rebuilding wars it didn’t fight.
Total documented, inflation-adjusted profit from war contracts: over $485 billion.
WHY THIS VIDEO MATTERS This investigation exposes the seven-step system that allows the same corporations—and the same families—to profit from every war, any war:
• How DuPont supplied gunpowder across conflicts while wrapping itself in patriotism • Why Rockefeller’s Standard Oil continued fueling Nazi Germany during World War II • How J.P. Morgan’s massive war loans made American “neutrality” impossible in WWI • How Lockheed’s cost-plus contracts turned $2.1 billion projects into $5.3 billion payouts • How Halliburton secured $40 billion in no-bid Iraq contracts while Dick Cheney was Vice President • How retired generals rotate straight into contractor boardrooms • Why weapons like the F-35 are 700% over budget—and still fully funded • And how billions in fraud, waste, and overbilling were documented… and largely ignored
THE SEVEN-STEP WAR PROFIT PLAYBOOK Step 1: Prepare Before the War Build production capacity in peacetime. When war begins, you’re the only supplier ready.
Step 2: Secure the First Contract A “national emergency” allows no-bid contracts. Once inside, future contracts are automatic.
Step 3: Lock in Cost-Plus Pricing The government covers all costs—plus guaranteed profit. Overspending increases earnings.
Step 4: Blow the Budget Underbid to win. Overrun later. Cancellation becomes impossible once billions are invested.
Step 5: Hire the Gatekeepers Generals who approved contracts retire into executive roles. Regulators become employees.
Step 6: Manufacture Consent for War Fund think tanks. Finance lobbying. Shape “expert” opinion to push military intervention.
Step 7: Turn War into Dynasty War profits fund peacetime empires. Wealth compounds. Power becomes hereditary.
THE PAPER TRAIL • DuPont supplied 4 million pounds of gunpowder during the Civil War—profits that built its chemical empire • Standard Oil sold fuel through subsidiaries to both sides of World War I and II • J.P. Morgan loaned the Allies $2 billion in WWI—making U.S. entry financially inevitable • Lockheed’s C-5 Galaxy doubled in cost—and profits—under cost-plus rules • Halliburton received $40 billion in Iraq contracts despite documented waste and fraud • In 2023, the U.S. military budget hit $816 billion • The top five contractors absorbed 25% of it • Lockheed Martin alone earned $65 billion, 90% from government funds
WHAT WAS LOST That $485 billion could have funded:
• Free college for every American for two decades • High-speed rail nationwide • Universal healthcare for ten years • A full infrastructure rebuild • Cancer research for generations
Instead, it reinforced dynasties built not on innovation—but on conflict.
War ends for soldiers. It never ends for the companies that profit from it.
And once you see the pattern— you can’t unsee it.
