Like a lot of those who have BTDT, it shows a bit of how we progress in our healing and reassimilation into the world.

The goal by the international bankers and mega billionaires is a new world order where the elitist control the world. All we have to do is look at history and see how the international bankers and elitist have backed both sides in all the conflicts to ensure they are on the winning side. To make their master plan succeed, our republic must be transformed, which Obama promised us, if you recall. Once we are the socialist state he and the elitist want, then they can fulfill the new world order. The only obstacle between them and communism, is we 3% that have always stood up for what is right and followed our oath to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Washington and all poliitcians are bought and paid for by corporate America and they dance to what the elitist want. We the People be damned. A classic example is the Affordable Care Act, which a large majority of Americans were against, but it passed regardless. All this has done is what the pundits said it would do, help undermine our economy. The author of that piece makes great sense and he has spoken what I felt after returning home from Vietnam. What the hell did we accomplish, except make a bunch of millionaires from our blood, sweat and tears.

I deployed seven times in my career and never once got the feeling anyone "over there" cared I was even there. Even stopping in Kuwait a few months after saving them from being pillaged by Iraq, I was treated like a house guest that wouldn't leave. I kept wondering where was the gratitude.<br /><br />While not a fan of the Hillary State Department and the "transparency" of our foreign policy, I fully believe it's never been about helping the Arabs or Persians to co-exist in a better world, and anyone that studies international business fully knows that having the ability to even compete for resources with China and Russia is the true purpose behind what is needed for us to survive, and thus why we do what we do.<br /><br />Where I once felt I was fighting for our freedom, a wiser man today, I now feel it was for our survival.
