Ike said it 6 decades ago with the Cross of Iron speech. Then he started sending advisors into the newly “liberated” and quickly partitioned VietNam. While the “conflict” in Korea was very very hot. So much for social and fiscal conservatism. The Empire, it seems, was born in its own tomb. A house built on shifting sand. Maybe Wall Street will have a flash of inspiration, and will turn to financing peace. Maybe I’ll flap my arms and fly to the moon.
We need all that spending to make sure the Red Army doesn’t rumble through the Fulda Gap and make Western Europe an intolerant socialist hellhole. Oh, wait.
