Corporate War

In the case of Afghanistan, wasn’t the rush to war there a reaction to the terrorist bombings of 9/11 coupled to/combined with a lust for the metals and mineral resources of Afghanistan that are coveted by governments and industrialist needs and the investor/corporate/capitalist decision makers?

Conflicting/Contradictory Republican Concerns

You know how when Republicans are in the minority they get all “concerned” about everything being paid for in the budget? (It doesn’t happen when they are in the majority. That’s when they never even bring up the topic of paying off the budget and that’s when the deficit usually soars.)

Well, Republicans are also the party of eliminating abortion.

If it’s important that everything is paid for, shouldn’t that also apply to all of the new life that we bring into existence? Shouldn’t Congress also require that all babies be paid for at least up until their 18th birthdays either by their parents, and if their parent or parents are not able to pay for everything, by the social safety net? That way, all babies would all be paid for. They would all be taken care of.

Isn’t that important to family values types and family values politicians?
