Whatever Happened to the "Peace Dividend"?
Advertisements [?]
Anyone old enough to recall the fall of the Soviet Union and the subsequent end to the Eastern bloc? Anyone remember the talk about the "Peace Dividend"? Anyone recall the super bright future ahead of us now that the scourge of humanity, Communism, was no more? How we were going to have so much money because we would not have to fight the "Cold War" any more?

What happened to our "Peace Dividend"? What happened to our bright future? Why are we living on the brink of economic ruin?
