Our large-scale military adventurism the last six decades as provided us
with nothing but budget deficits.

I suppose we could say the arms race got us the micro chip, the
internet, the GPS system., better RADAR systems, better jet planes and
most of the space program with all of the stuff that came out of that.
(communication satellites, the Hubble telescope and Tang).
Just the things that came out of DARPA is impressive.

It is also the biggest jobs program in history. It is a shame the
public would not have been willing to pay that much for something less
destructive but fear is a powerful force.

As Zig Zigler says,. there are only two things that make people spend
their money, fear and love and they always spend more in response to
fear.


Amazing, one of the Constitutional duties of the federal government is
looked upon as a jobs program.


What our DoD is doing goes far beyond defending our borders.

Nobody we have been at war with since 1945 has attacked or even
threatened to attack the US.

Before you start throwing 9-11 at me, remember virtually everyone
involved in 9-11 was Saudi and most of the planning was done in
Europe. The critical training was done in the US.



I was planning on enlisting once the Viet Cong invaded Topeka but then I
thought about it some more and concluded that Topeka might be a better
place if it were run by the Viet Cong. Certainly the pho would be a lot
better. I got some alleged Chinese food in Topeka in the mid-1960's, and
the Chinese noodles were actual strands of spaghetti.
