We are proving a huge army is not much more effective in the mountains than a little hit team. Most people have no concept of what the military is like and what it requires. Sure we do. The military is like a garbage disposal in which you pour $500 to $600 billion a year and then watch your money go down the drain. Once we are out of the Bush Recession/Depression, and there are real jobs around, we need to cut military spending by half, and, at the same time raise pay and benefits substantially for a much smaller active duty force that would be better suited for the sort of trouble and nonsense we face today. The $300 billion a year we'd save could go to far more important needs, such as rebuilding infrastructure, funding schools properly, providing life-long job training for working adults, et cetera. These days, massive military expenditures get you...nothing. |

You are quite the reader, however, to have a balanced, objective point of view you need to begin reading materials that are not on the approved reading list provided by your handlers. It must be tough for you stumbling through life wearing horse blinders. But, on the other hand, what you can't see won't spook you. Here's one you can start with that should help loosen the grip your handlers have on your mind. http://www.thepoliticalcesspool.org/book/ |
