There is nothing independent anymore about the enabling participants in war/military expenditure. That sham of a "free press" that hovers over our republic like a doting hen shades her citizenry chicks lost out before Eisenhower.
Most Americans are so enamored with the spit and polish of militaristic culture they cannot think critically beyond- STFU if you dare question/attack ANYTHING pertaining to the glorious, uniformed branches that deplete this and every country's treasure into insolvency.
Now, every boy/girl child has been so indoctrinated to believe that defense budgets are as innocent as well, every boy/girl child's Barbie Doll. After all, you don't wonder or question why we must kill or destroy if it it makes some rich doing it.
