Americans, in general, are cowards.<br /><br />Sarge: I have a short fuse dealing with armchair generals and chickenhawks. Even though I was one I have meet National Guard types that were excellent soldiers and some who I would not piss on if they were on fire. <br /><br />Pixel: The United States spends far more on defense than the top ten countries combined. It's a form of insanity.<br /><br />Sherry: I agree and it actually worse. The military corporations have carefully spread their factories across many different congressional districts to influence voters. That way a cancelled weapons project, even one that does not work, means a loss of jobs. It's a nice scam.<br /><br />Cutella: Thanks! Will visit your site soon.

We can spend 34 million on a military headquarters building in Afghanistan that will never be used. <br /><br />We can spend (Air Force) 1 trillion on a computer system that will never work.<br /><br />We can spend 1.5 trillion on military planes that won't fly.<br /><br />We can't spend on education that would reduce unemployment by training people in the skill sets needed in today's workforce.<br /><br />We can't spend to improve the lives of our citizens.<br /><br />Government of the people? Which people? Oh right.

As long as their cable is on, they get paid furlough, and nobody is taking <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/10/25/seattle-seizes-elderly-woman-parking-lot-to-turn-it-into-parking-lot/" rel="nofollow">THEIR property</a>... all is good. I tried to dismiss this article as a hoax btw, but it did in fact happen. The current mode is to fund/give money to thieves in order to 'feel comfortable' rather than resist.Stan Bushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11137164645781147263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-829836469690492751.post-22866491741007933842013-10-25T13:50:41.079-04:002013-10-25T13:50:41.079-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Stan Bushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11137164645781147263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-829836469690492751.post-1001640637319188982013-10-25T13:22:02.751-04:002013-10-25T13:22:02.751-04:00It's just inexplicable to me.
