My car got broken into about 2 years ago. I called it in immediatally. I explained everything, and was told to make out a report. They didn't even come by to investigate. They filed my report and it was never looked at again. I lost my stereo, my watch, several hundred cds (not burned cds, mind you, actual $14 cds), a window, and my sense of safety. I asked a sherif friend of mine why it wasn't investigated. He told me that the police man-power doesn't exist to investigate most minor crimes. Mind you I live in San Jose, a place known to be one of the safest large cities in the US. Hundreds of billions of dollars go to Iraq for purpouses such as policing. Not only that, we are going into debt much faster than ever before as a direct result of this war. I think we can all agree that Sadam was an evil man and should have been stopped, but should we be doing this at the cost of our own country? My daughter will pay for this. My daughter's daughter will pay for this. My posterity and yours will pay for our inability to make simple financial, ethcail, and moral decisions in their consideration. I am more concerned about solving our problems today instead of tomorrow. While on the surface this is an investment in resources, any scientist can tell you that oil isn't renewable, and will exhaust only faster the more we consume. Any invester will tell you that investing in something that is going to stop giving you a return soon is a bad move. Any democratic citizen can tell you that destroying a government because it might have posed a threat to you in the past is behavior befitting an empire. Any bleeding heart liberal can tell you this war has nothing to do with democracy and everything to do with control, and more importantly with lining some very deep pockets. You don't need to listen to the bleeding heat liberal, but the scientist and the invester are nothing to sneeze at.
