“The United States is extending its lead as the globe’s number one arms exporter . . . the US now accounts for 34% of all global arms sales, up from 30% five years ago, and are at their highest level since the late 1990s.”

How can it possibly be that the last thing in the world I’d choose to fund (militarism) is exactly what I happen to fund month after month, year after year.

Sending tax dollars to slosh around in those huge vats under the streets of distant Washington, DC is insane.
