My economic policy is based on one premise: uncap the dreams and unleash the spirit of every American. When people are free to create, unshackled by unnecessary social and economic burdens, unlimited abundance flows forth. THAT is the source of our future peace and prosperity.

There is a difference between a reasonable National security strategy - which of course includes a strong military! - and one based more on military defense contractor profits than on efforts to create greater opportunities for peace. What is smart is to look at that.

For every dollar we spend on peace creation, we spend over $1000 on preparing for war. This is not responsible policy; it is insanity masquerading as seriousness. Delegitimizing the peacemaker is a tool of the warmonger mentality, an unconscious way that humanity destroys itself.

We must face America’s dark underbelly of a war economy: our national security agenda is based more on corporate profits to be earned from preparing for war than on a robust agenda for creating peace. My candidacy for president highlights this insanity. Marianne2020.com

Four factors statistically create peace: Expand economic opportunities for women, increase educational opportunities for children, reduce violence against women, & diminish human suffering. Yet for every $1 we spend on peace creation we now spend over $1,000 on war preparedness.

We need an economic system that provides economic prosperity 10 years from now; do that but that taking better care of our 10-year-olds today. We need a national defense strategy that plans for peace 25 years from now; do that by proactively waging peace. Marianne2020.com

It absolutely makes sense. Germany has paid $89B in reparations to Jewish organizations since World War and in 1988 the US gave $20-$22,000 to every surviving prisoner of the Japanese internment camps.
