government is so deceptive

Good post Handles,

Yeah, modern wars seem to be often fueled by substance abuse.  Lots of vets from WWII came back and reached for the bottle.  Hitler's "blitzkrieg" method--and Hitler--were infused with amphets.  In the good old days it was enough to just kill the enemy before he killed you.  There was reason in that, but modern wars are not so simple, and the weaponry and blood are that much more horrific.  In the simpletonian era of the 60s, they used to say, "Suppose they gave a war, and nobody came."  If you look over the stats on Viet Nam, so many were killed in the first two weeks of their arrival, before they got the hang of it.  Bernie Sanders has a good point when he says the way to change is through the masses, through rejection of authority.  It's a tough job, but the young are always called on to do it.  And it's no wonder they reach for relief through hard drugs.
