The Real Target Of US Militarism: YOU

The only thing that really matters to the bipartisan American ruling class is endless war & wringing you dry for Wall Street

Recently, on his podcast comedian Jimmy Dore showed a photo of a sign painted on the back of a van in Canada that proclaimed: 

“A politician is someone who will lay down your life for his country.”

No truer words spoken at a time we see both corporate political parties ramping up the flow of weapons and a river of billions in aid to Ukraine while the child poverty rate here at home has more than doubled with the end of minimal pandemic support. While the War Department and Ukraine get a blank check, millions more Americans tumble into poverty, suffering without healthcare, housing, opportunity and in many cases, food.

But, never doubt, the endless war and gushing flow of federal money to crooked war contractors and the inept War Department is never ending, leaving you to wonder: Who is the target? And who is the enemy?
