No Soldier Left Behind

"No soldier left behind" Paula Poundstone says in the most recent episode of "Real Time With Bill Maher." So, what do we leave behind? Seems that the most dialogue in public life is about "the war." So, it's my turn to make a subject about this "war."

What about the underfunded schools in our nation? You know what they say, the children are our future? Seems that we need better funding, and better education. So what, we have "security," this plausible and invisible barrier between profane life and violence. I really do think "security" is needed; however, there are more important things to worry about. So these new Republican candidates are, very interesting.

So a few of the candidates, I think two, believe in evolution. Two, the rest think a great man created us. That's okay, but Mitt Romney, who is Mormon, believe in "family values." This is coming from a country where the divorce rate is in the 60% range. Scary, so over half of marriages are going to the dump, but we worry about gays ruining the sanctity of marriage. Another large portion believe in the increase of military strength. I guess that's because we feel that we need to have political strings in every country in the world.

All I have to say is the military industrial complex causes all of this. Around the time of when Eseinhower left office, and he called the complex out and said we should 'not let it take over.' However, it has and war is ultimately profitable. You know how many smart bombs hit their targets? Out of 96 bombs, one hit. Yup. You need to watch "Why We Fight." A brilliant documentary on, well, "Why We Fight."
So to wrap up this random rant, I'll say this: We need better education and to stop worrying about what every other country does. You know how well getting into other's business is going. Hmm, "The War."
