We're out of time--now. "One day" we'll realize too late, that we really weren't going to be picked up and taken care of by our Leaders, damned poor substitutes for Mom and Dad; they aren't even *bad* Mom and Dad--they are what in TA are called "demon parents."

It’s the 11th hour but it’s not midnight yet. Churchill said you can always count on Americans to do the right thing after they have exhausted every other option. We often get there late but when we do get there we slam it like nobody’s business. We’re going to get there soon.

Nobody will rise up--unless they start cutting Defense. Most of that $800B is going to defense contactors who employ tens of thousands of people in every state. Congress won't reduce the defense budget because those people and their families vote.

We need one day, to be today or it will be too late. The planet is on fire. Literally.

"America couldn't spell democracy" The US spends $800 Billion a year on Military, more than next 9 countries combined But, can't afford Universal Health Care, or help 17 million children who go to bed hungry.
