    Those "historical accounts" are likely Fake News.

      Same reason we know private charity is not enough to cover everybody who is in need.

        Yeah, we really should be more like North Korea, Russia, Mussolini's Italy, Hitler's Germany, and every other two-bit authoritarian state in this world.

          It's a propaganda expense. One this nation should have no part of.

          Our country is a helluva lot more than just about how good we are at blowing chit up.

            Did they have the internet back then? Times have changed and we need to evolve with them.

              The internet is a tool. It's not an education provider anymore than radio or television are.

                So, burd and I are channeling the same horrible images today. Not what America is about, or should be about.

                  If utilized properly I think there is a lot you could do with it. Radio and tv only go one way but with Internet it can go both ways.

                    Is Trump secretly one of "Mooslins" just like Obama??!?!

                          I assume all of Trump's additions to spending, in all fields, will be vacuumed up by his friends. That's how Putin runs his store, and Trump is a big fan.

                          Assuming we still have a republican form of government after the Grape Ape leaves office, the conga line to prison is going to be really impressive.
                          If we still have one after Dictator Obama's done, I'm sure we'll still have one when Trump's done.
