Let's Cut the defense budget to half 

by ending CrazyWars... 

I wonder what the Mission is... 

Any GOAL? Anything?

 Obviously, It's not to defend the USA. The Military has not Defended the USA since 1945. There was a real attack on us on 9/11/2001 but the military failed to protect the country. Total Failure... So there must be some other reason we have invaded Vietnam, Nicaragua, Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria. Is it simply to sell weapons to the Pentagon? Whenever we have a war we sell a lot of weapons, meals, tents, bandages, trucks, and airplanes... Corporations make a great profit. Soldiers die, civilians die, enemies die, but nothing is really accomplished. After all, what difference did it make who won the war in Nicaragua? None. It made a difference to the people of Nicaragua but it had no effect on life here in the USA. None of these Crazy Wars have made any difference to the people of the USA. NONE! The only military action that made any sense was the dozen men that assassinated Osama bin Laden. That was a worthwhile mission.


Therefore, It's really important to remember to NOT VOLUNTEER for the military. I saw President Trump talking at a Wounded Warrior Event today and it reminded me that all those people VOLUNTEERED to go die for nothing. OOPS, they got wounded because ___________. Fill in the blank if you know why. Was it simply because they couldn't find a civilian job and the military was hiring? Was it because they saw a John Wayne movie and got all inspired? Was it because they were easily brainwashed?

If we cut defense spending in half we could afford many wonderful things. We could prevent hunger 100%. We could pay for health care for all. We could pay for great school for all. We could pay teachers more... Not only is defense money wasted but people's lives are wasted also. The engineers that invented drone airplanes could have been designing better electric cars... BUT, they wasted their talents making drones... Most soldiers spend their entire career without once doing anything of value. What IF we hired them to rebuild our infrastructure? We have roads that need paving but no money to fund construction crews. WHAT IF WE STARTED BEING SMART?

So, what can one person DO to end Crazywar? Vote Democratic... and write to your representatives and ask them to stop funding stupid stuff. For example: You could copy and paste this message and email it to them.

Great Book: "How to Win Friends & Influence People" by Dale Carnegie - One thing I learned was that I OUGHT TO Win Friends & Influence People... Hey, I didn't Know.

https://www.amazon.com/How-Win-Friends-Influence-People/dp/0671027034 

https://www.hubspot.com/sales/how-to-win-friends-and-influence-people-summary

Here is ONE of MANY Ideas Expressed in this book... 

We are often tempted to argue with others, especially when we are absolutely convinced that we’re right about something. But even if we are right, what does arguing about it yield? Why prove someone else wrong? Is that going to make the person like us? Why not just let him save face, if we have nothing to gain from it but “feeling” superior?  

Not to mention, nine times out of 10, arguing just results in the other person even more firmly convinced that he is right.  

According to Carnegie, it’s impossible to win an argument. If we lose the argument, we lose; if we win the argument, we have made the other person feel inferior, hurt his pride, and made him resent us. In other words, we still lose.

Do the Russians Control the Republican Party? Behavior shows that the GOP is in Favor of Promoting Putin's Agenda.

The Russians helped Trump become President and HE OWES THEM FAVORS FOR THEIR HELP.
Now we had a secret Republican Senators Meeting in Moscow... No one knows what they talked about but The Republican Senators certainly looked like PUPPETS on TV...

Now, we have Trump Meeting Putin in Secret... Could they being conspiring to help each other divide up the world?

My Autobiography: Growing Up in Los Gatos, California in the 1960s by Gregory Vanderlaan - and Living in San Jose, Washington DC, Chico, Eureka and Orangevale, CA.

I Was Born in 1954. We lived Near the San Jose Airport until they Started Landing Jet Airplanes and We had to move... We went to Los Gatos in 1960. I lived there until graduation from Los Gatos High School in 1972... an Ideal Childhood... FYI: Los Gatos is about 50 miles South of San Francisco on the edge of the mountains between San Jose and Santa Cruz.

I Went to West Valley Jr. College, learned electronics drafting and got a job at System Industries in Santa Clara... I feel blessed that not only did I grow up in a great location but I also grew up at a great time. I missed the Vietnam War by ONE Year and Silicon Valley Was Hiring Like Crazy When I Needed a Job.

The US Congress had witch hunts (Joe McCarthy-HUAC) to expose "Commies" who worked in The Hollywood Movie business and blacklisted folksingers that were leading our young people astray with Labor Union Organizing songs.
