Note; there is some adult language in the videos below.
“War is a Racket by Smedley Butler is a famous speech denouncing the military industrial complex. This speech by two-time Congressional Medal of Honor recipient exposes war profits that benefit few at the expense of many.
Throughout his distinguished career in the Marines, Smedley Darlington Butler demonstrated that true patriotism does not mean blind allegiance to government policies with which one does not agree.”
Wars have to started on lies. What kind of lies? Until the Civil War, there were no medals. A medal that rewards people for killing other people is part of the propoganda of war.
War propoganda also consists of war being sold by God’s representatives, in church and political houses of worship. Those who sell war worship in the temple where many false idols of money, power and influence are the subject of adoration and honor.
The only people who vote on whether to go to war are the few, the 1% representatives. These reps are most often NOT part of the war, have never served in war trenches, and have never been exposed to the horrors of war.
These 1% representatives do not lead the soldiers into battle. They only visit ‘front lines’ when the shooting stops and when they are sure there is no risk of being shot at.
These 1% representatives of the military industrial complex are safely tucked into their beds at night, while spending taxpayer money on underground shelters, where they can hide if things do not go as well as they planned for.
The huge no bid profits contained in war and the fight against ‘terrorism’, almost ensures that war will continue forever, unless people rise up and stop the military industrial complex. Even President Eisenhower in his Farewell address warned against the military industrial complex.
The military industrial complex has only GROWN in both power, influence and total wealth since he warned us against this tide of war propoganda.
The host of Survivor tells it like it is in his YouTube Video;
The 1% loves to divide and conquer. They use propoganda on the mass media that they own, and convince people that they need to fight each other. Meanwhile, they are laughing behind the scenes, taking all of the money, and slurping up taxpayer money via corporate welfare.
Most of these large military industrial related corporations not only do not pay ANY taxes, they also are making record profits in this awful economic time, AND they collect corporate welfare, all at the same time. For them, this is win win win. For all of us, it is lose, lose, lose. When asked to stop collecting this ‘socialist’ entitlement money, they say that would be ‘raising taxes’ on them.
The war budget is increasing in this awful economic time, while everyone else is being cut to the bone. Where is the money going? To the 1%, who are making record profits, paying no taxes, and hoodwinking everyone with their lies, propoganda and mass media mind ‘programming’.
