Al, no one mentions how much of our economy is supported by our completely bloated and pointless defense industries. They've been careful to locate these plants in every district where they can buy a vote, (R) AND (D). I'm with you, we need to redirect these funds and efforts to things that work for citizens, not global corporations. But, it needs to be a gradual change. I don't get the morality of a man who has no problem spending 800B/year on war making but is ok with millions of people living a bare existence and going without health care. Al
