GAO Chief Warns Economic Disaster Looms

An editorial in Saturday's Gilmer Mirror made many of these same points. I think the "we are at war" paradigm will work on the impoverished denizens of rural Bible Belt country for at least another decade or two. They are literally too ignorant (and also too trusting of the "magnetic ribbon, support the troops" mantra) to know the military-industrial complex is stealing them blind and rendering the future of their descendants economically unviable. As long as the U.S. is the unpaid, self-appointed "policeman of the world," this trend will conntinue. Basically, the U.S. standard of living is being sacrificed for those who want to bring about the so-called New World Order.
