War Spending Run Amok
News from last week is relevant to the previous post: The Senate passed the 2009 war spending bill:
The measure would permit $612.5 billion in spending for military programs in 2009, including $70 billion for operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Why is the $700 billion wall-street bailout a national scandal while an astonishing $612 billion passes unnoticed into the abyss of the military-industrial complex?
