The military industrial complex won. People suspect it's why JFK was assassinated. He was ready to go public with the conspiracy. Nowadays we just accept that the military industrial complex runs shit lol

Exactly. And this generational bullshit is just another stupid distraction.

It doesn't even have to be a conspiracy. It's just a group of like minded people making a ton of money.

Yeah, JFK, who started Vietnam and tried his best to provoke a war with the soviets during the Cuban missile crisis, was an enemy of the military industrial complex.

To an extent, the military has been asking for better raised, fed children but since that would require parents to labor less, and companies to make food more nutritious instead of immediately profitable, they get rebuked.

What won is the dollar made today at expense of $100 tomorrow.

And remember, it was Eisenhower, a general and Republican, that warned us. Admittedly, Eisenhower was a different kind of Republican than we have today.
