Shanet Clark Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 Members interested in Twentieth Century fascist trends, monopolistic wealth, dynastic families, corporate hegemony and Krupps style armament profiteering should know about Jerry Colby's book: DUPONT DYNASTY: BEHIND THE NYLON CURTAIN This is a very legitimate, well researched and readable history book. The DuPonts, aristocratic exiles from the French Revolution, came to America with gunpowder formulas and started the first and most important "trust" when they bought out all the other explosives companies in the US around 1900. By the 1930s the Dupont DeNemours company was thoroughly blended with the German chemical cartel of IG FARBEN (Hoescht, AGFA, BASF and BAYER)... After WWII they attempted to gain a monopoly on atomic weapons and energy. Today they are the largest chemical polluter in the U.S. and their family sits in financial control of General Motors and the American chemical industry. If anyone wants to investigate these disturbing events, by all means they should purchase and read DUPONT DYNASTY: BEYOND THE NYLON CURTAIN by GERALD COLBY (Lyle Stuart publishers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
