over by people who have NOT twenty years to run. After them, then<br />

hell-bust and they should worry!”<br />

It is that 50 year interval, that FIFTY years between the time some<br />

European finds OUT. The devil gits his work in durin’ the 50 years<br />

between the time some European discovers what the hell is going on,<br />

and the time the news reaches the general public. Europeans have SEEN<br />

their countries goin’ to ruin, but they didn’t get the publicity. Brooks<br />

Adams saw various processes runnin’ along. He even said we were in for<br />

there is a defect with the non-family system. I mean people shiftin’<br />

around, people NOT passin’ on what they know INSIDE their families.<br />

And then there is snobism. That’s another great barrier against learnin’.<br />

HOW are you goin’ to know Europe if you don’t KNOW the United<br />

States of America? I don’t mean tourism; you can see a lot of sights at<br />

the cinema. Only you don’t generally see anything but stucco and paper.<br />

I mean IF you have no clue to what is goin’ on IN America, how can you<br />

know what is goin’ on here in Europe? If you don’t know ANY history
