782. It was not

The last "good war" and purely by accident was WW2. And that was accidental, and the military had no issues with good order and discipline because it was accepted as such. Vietnam was a very bad war. A very unpopular one, and one that leads us to this, all service is bad. All of it. And the oligarchy laughs all the way to the bank.

There are billions upon billions to be made in all kinds of privatization.

I find it all kinds of funny that people attack out of emotion, because it is emotion. Me, I, and myself is the current ethos, and not sustainable.

But if you think I said nam was a good war, you'd better reread what I said. Suffice it to say, I served and consider that a critical formative experience. It is one reason why I think government can work and we need to stop this war on the public sphere, one of many.

But you are correct in one thing, we cannot have this conversation in the US. This thread is evidence A of why it cannot be done, and the 1% thanks all of you for it! as Halluburton and KBR and the rest laugh all tje way to the bank
