Robert Reich: The Military-Industrial Drain

[Newest Reality]

Robert Reich why military spending costs America so much money.

I highly recommend subscribing to Reich's channel and watching his well thought out, high quality, in-a-nutshell videos on various, pertinent subjects. It is definitely information that can help our cause and clear out the toxic fumes of the prevalent misinformation in constant circulation. In this case, knowledge is power.

Share his work with your friends, as well. They may thank you.

1. Reich, Stiglitz and Krugman are my favorite economists,

in that order.

Reich was a great Secretary of Labor under Clinton.

2. I don't hear any of the Presidential candidates talking about this scam. Why not?

3. Gosh...

You just asked the $64,000,000,000 question.

What with all the less important and sometimes superficial or temporary distractions going on, there are some glaring details to reckon with and they impact all sectors of our culture as well as the results we are seeing.

Maybe we have to ask the vested interests, lobbyists, factions, and whomever else might be affected by kind of information being highlighted and discussed in depth more often? It would sure shift things and shake up the Status Quo, methinks.

4. One point worth noting....

It's not really "dRump's administration"....it's the AMERICAN GOVERNMENT. This same shit has been happening under President Obama, W, Clinton, HW, ronnie-myth...and even Carter to some extent, although it was tamped down considerably under President Carter.

These mf'rs have the government by the balls. The congress licks their boots, just like they lick the boots of the NRA for their bribes. As much as I'd like to blame all this nightmare on the idiot in the White House, he is oblivious to being raped by the industrial military complex. The lobbyists....the congressmen who are covering for the manufacturing in their districts/states. This problem is MUCH bigger than the idiot coward.

6. yep, good point, there is a fear, no matter who is in office or what party, a fear of going against

the military industrial complex.

7. Yay!

Good to know Thanks.

He often presents something like the Cliff's Notes on many important topics and is a great and valued resource. Plus, I like him and I think he really cares.

Some of these topics are very crucial to our future and need to see more daylight.

8. $23tn 'unaccounted for'...

... and still they keep shovelling $billions more into the Pentagon's bottomless pit.

Any candidates pledging to address this...?
