THE AMERICAN DREAM

Politicians like to refer to the "American Dream". President Obama made reference to it in his speech to Congress on Thursday the 8th. I remember the American dream. Then came the nightmare of Vietnam, and the domination of the military over the civil sector. President Eisenhower warned us about this in his farewell address. We didn't listen. We are in financial trouble up to our necks and are sinking fast. Until we rein in the "military-industrial complex" that Eisenhower warned about,it will be a downward and endless spiral into financial and civil desolation.
History has warned us. Don't repeat the mistakes of the past.
