Yes, I agree. Thank you for articulating your own point.
I'm just sort of done with people talking with tweets. Say what you mean to say in your own words. Stop relying on everyone else to do the talking.
The military industrial complex has been a major issue for America since Eisenhower warned us about it. The cold war made it impossible to address it. Then 9/11 and terrorism made it more impossible to address it.
Now? What's the issue?
Yes, it's obscene, and there's a lot of fat to trim. But, lobbyists have a ton of power in Washington, so expect there to be ZERO changes to the spending and literal "government jobs program" type of spending that will happen.
