Given that we were wrong & we lost in Vietnam, we were wrong & we lost in Iraq, and we were wrong & we lost in Afghanistan, what will it take to smash the illusion that an unholy alliance with the military industrial complex & a $780 billion defense budget is anything but a scam?

There has been NO World War III, huge. The Soviet Union was defeated ending the Cold War, huge. Germany, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and other states are great economic powers and Allies. The quality of life in much of the world improved. It has not been perfect, but we do good.

A new political and economic system, both of which abandon the very old ideas of the last 11,000 years of hierarchy as a necessity. #DirectDemocracy #GiftEconomy

We were not wrong. We lost because the political intentions of the initial rush into war changed. And usually our people grew tired of it and quit.
