The Corporation

:33:00
Investment opportunities
were improving.

:33:02
There was no problems.
:33:04
These are
wonderful countries.

:33:06
I think one of the greatest
untold stories

:33:08
of the twentieth century
:33:10
is the collusion
between corporations

:33:13
especially in America
and Nazi Germany.

:33:17
First in terms of how the
corporations from America

:33:20
helped to essentially
rebuild Germany

:33:23
and support the early
Nazi regime.

:33:26
And then when
the war broke out

:33:29
figured out a way to
keep everything going.

:33:31
So General Motors was
able to keep Opal going

:33:34
Ford was able to keep
their thing going

:33:38
and companies like Coca Cola
they couldn’t keep

:33:40
the Coca Cola going
:33:42
so what they did was
they invented Fanta Orange

:33:44
for the Germans
:33:46
and that show Coke was
able to keep

:33:49
their profits coming in
:33:50
to Coca Cola.
:33:52
So when you drink
Fanta Orange

:33:54
that’s the Nazi drink
:33:55
that was created so that Coke
could continue making money

:33:59
while millions of people died.
:34:02
When Hitler came
to power in 1933

:34:05
his goal was to dismantle
:34:07
and destroy the
Jewish community.

:34:08
This was an enterprise
so vast

:34:11
that it required the resources
of a computer.

:34:14
But in 1933 there
was no computer

:34:16
What there was
:34:17
was the IBM
punch card system

:34:20
which controlled
and stored information

:34:24
based upon the holes
that were punched

:34:25
in various rows
and columns.

:34:28
Naturally there was
no off the shelf software

:34:31
as there is today.
:34:32
Each applicant was custom
designed and an engineer

:34:35
had to personally
configure it.

:34:39
Millions of people of
all religions nationalities

:34:44
and characteristics
went through

:34:46
the concentration
camp system.

:34:48
That’s an extraordinary
traffic management program

:34:51
that required
an IBM system

:34:54
in every railroad
direction

:34:57
and an IBM system in every
concentration camp.
