Military is an extension of politics.
Politics is an extension of economics.
Economics is an extension of resources.

Is Free Market Capitalism the new Lost Cause?
All politics is an extension of economics which is an extension of resources.
Politics between the Right and Left simply represent Capitalism vs. Socialism with the resource being the ability to tax and distribute citizen earnings.
Do we maintain our economic innovation and weath lead by the private sector? Or do we go down the European and Chinese model of full Government Controlled Capitalism?
Do we value increasing Government power to determine outcomes or individual freedoms/rights?
American freedom actually means freedom from a controlling government. The individual freedom to pursue your dreams.
Remember, the Bill of Rights was created to protect citizens against a centralized controlling Government.
As the founders knew, Governments are the most powerful, self seeking and corrupt organizations on earth.
Can anyone limit the growth of the US Government as it gains greater power and control over its' own citizens while engulfing the entire economy?
Seeking any sort of limited government might be a new Lost Cause.
The previous Lost Cause was another economic war between the North and the South... Industrial Revolution vs. Agrarian Slavery.
Now, Government Socialism plans to snuff out the Industrial Revolution and centralizing control over all innovation, growth, free enterprise.
The way we are going, everyone in the future will work in some capacity for the Government. It will all be planned and regulated by the unelected beurocracy.
Free enterprise is a Lost Cause.

What an amazing win by @NavyFB
I had the night of my life tonight.
What are we doing here?
The problem is not the poem.
The problem is the people who critique the literature and determine impact.

Before US elections, the entire world seems to explode in a frenzy.
$ Billions are spent as we speak to influence and persuade opinion over the next month.
Hundreds of $ billions are at stake.
All the average man can do is pop some popcorn and watch the show.

This is a good way to target woke Universities.
Require proof of ability to pay back government backed loans.
This free government money funds Universities, so the potential for change is great.
This is actually fucking evil holy shit. In the land of the free students must only study what the president approves apparently.

If Islam is willing to pay billions to golfers, how much are they paying American media and politicians to influence policy?
I wouldn't be suprised if $100B is flooding in from our enemies. Of course this will never be tracked.
This money is why it never feels like Americans get quality sane leadership or reporting that takes care of Americans. Influence peddling with revenue far greater from foreign interests.

Economics is more important than politics. Always has been.
Video shows Kimberly Guilfoyle, US ambassador to Greece and former fiancee of Trump Jr. meeting privately with the leaders of Romania's Social Democratic Party on March 31st, in a Bucharest hotel.
Just 6 Days later, the Social Democrats allied with the pro-Russian extremists from AUR and filled the motion that collapsed the Romanian government led by PM Bolojan, which strongly opposed purchasing US gas at above market prices.
In a WSJ article yesterday, sources present at a meeting between a Greek minister and Guilfoyle stated she bragged about having collapsed the RO government for its refusal to buy US gas, warning the US can do the same in Greece.

Yes, leaders who want to push responsibility onto the AI will not succeed. Human oversite is ironically the critical factor to AI integration success.
This was in most of the 1960s IBM training manuals.
It stands today as it stood in the mainframe era.
Replace computer with AI and this is the state of things.

On 9/11/01, I was headed to an Electrical Engineering class at the Naval Academy and stopped to watch on a hallway TV. Classes were canceled.
The next year, I would service select Marine Ground, and ultimately serve 3 combat tours overseas. Many classmates did the same, knowing they would be sent into harms way at 23 years old. We lost some brave young men.
That day carved millions of young men and women's future into one of service and sacrifice.
To witness an attack on American civilians in that way was a shock to the system.
We are so lucky to have been born in this nation and the ideals of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. These ideals are so advanced that they provide a foundation thay generates great abundance, which then becomes the target of other nations.
These ideals, our people, our lands require service and sacrifice to maintain. Freedom isn't free.
