How to attract capital

Auschwitz had it all.
Within the wire, there
were two huge factories —
Krupp and Siemens.
These pre-eminent German
capitalists, were "stoned"
by investment conditions
in Auschwitz.
The Nazi State fed 'em!
No medical costs!
No holidays!
No smokos!
No costs at all!
Just profits!
Kill a worker now,
you've got a newie
a second later.
They're queue'n up!
Even the dead
had priceable bone,
hair, chemical,
which was "factored in".
Yeah! Auschwitz had it all.
It had an insatiable
Suck on Capital.
Denis Kevans
