MB: <<<The defense spending hardly ended the cold war.>>>

Well, I would agree with that, but only because I feel it went into a hiatus rather than came to an end...but it certainly altered it. Our spending was of a scale that the Russians couldn't match, and drove them into virtual bankruptcy. That's the "economic reality."

<<< Dyning people on the streets may appeal to Republican conservatives, but not to human beings.>>>

I find that a truly ugly and repugnant statement.
