A Million Face Starvation
When history writes of the leadership in the late twentieth and early twenty first century, it will surely be very unkind. We have crooks and clowns in positions of leadership across the globe who have no idea what it means to be a leader.
How can this country spend more than $1 trillion a year on defense? That is more than the two hundred plus other countries on earth combined. We could have affordable healthcare, grants or loans available to anyone who wanted to further their education through trade schools or universities, jobs that paid double today's wages for everyone scraping the bottom of the barrel, pay everyone's mortgage and still have money left over to feed the entire world's repressed and underprivileged for what we spend on defense. If nothing else, every American would have had the savings to deal with this crisis. A crisis caused by politicians. Americans are paying for military bases in over 150 countries. It surely isn't for purposes of morality. Morality cannot be legislated.
That world leaders on every continent have continually contributed to the imperialism and colonialism that has left Africa, in particular, in a constant state of death qualifies as the greatest of crimes against humanity. It is often difficult to see beyond one's own hardship but the people of the world must impress upon the politicians who work for us that policies contributing to this constant genocide are no longer tolerable.
