What a convenient marriage. I'm not disagreeing with you, in fact I think its true, and I think it's sad, and I think its unethical and pathetic, and it actually benefits these people to be in prolonged conflicts. Oddly enough, this reasoning isn't something thats widely advertised by the Republicans or the Democrats, probably because it wouldn't wash with the general public, and more of them just might become liberals and want free goodies from the people who use national assets to further their own personal gain. The parties throw up smoke screens so we argue over stupid crap, hoping we ignore the larger plan and agendas of the political elite while arguing over issues of the lowest common denominator.
I normally enjoy your posts. But this rot hey're is ain't nothin' but a bit o liberal hippie speak.

Seriously. An evil military industrial complex with designer wars fabricated only for stockholder benefit? The capitalist war machine? That is about as San Fransisco as you can get, minus the buttsex.
