The government could literally cut military spending my 75% and invest a 'fraction' of that money into public works projects (i.e. jobs) over the next 10-20 years and get a better R.O.I. then we will EVER get in fucking wars.
Additionally, if the country/government would get serious about passing a Constitutional Amendment saying that if we are going to war, there must be a TAX that goes with it. It would absolutely eliminate us in 90% of the international policing.

All true. Bottom line is the Mil-Ind complex is just out making more money. Has corporate America or Big gov ever cared about the common man?
It is all about making $$$ for THEMSELVES. Libya is about lithium which the US needs for future electric cars.
Certanly someone has already set up the contract for elec cars.
Jesse Ventura for President.
He said he will run if Ron Paul runs with him.
But he would never win. Big money has controlled elections since at least 1900. There is not a dimes worth a diff between Bush and Obama. Both bought and payed for.
