Why is it that some don't realize that some aren't interested in much of anything else?
People are motivated to act in accordance to that end...as a consequence that end shall always be a possibility, and if those people are allowed to gain influence, a reality.
Why not war? Is it not the way the way of the world? Is it not the American example?
A culture that is so set on war must realize that its citizens will follow their culture's example even if it will lead to consequnces detrimental to that culture.
My generation...for the last 10 years...grew up with war as a way of life. We grew up with war being not only acceptable, but glorious and commendable.
Individually, many are at war already. They just don't have a central cause, or conversely, a common enemy. But, the common sentiment that I see is that as a people, we want war, we just don't have a good excuse yet. If that excuse can be provided, America will be in trouble.
But then again, maybe the American experiment is done and it's time to move on anyway. In which case, war anyone?
A very real corporate war...waged not in finances as has been the case, but with bullets.
Many are hard at work for this end. The funny thing? You can't really stop them without engaging them in war, which is what they want anyway.
Its a defeatest position because it collapse's to the weaker in man, that is to say the animal rather than reason. When in rome...brute force for brute force so...identify the brute force and maybe the suggestion will have some foundation to comment on. If your after a distribution of wealth idea, better to provoke with something more clever, when in rome as its said for good reason.

It's not just an American thing. Name a culture which HASN'T grown up with war as a way of life, except for Switzerland.
