Relying on our military to help make the world safe for its democracies
They Will Steal It!
Thom Hartmann, Berrett-Koehler Publishers: "Here's the irony: We came to believe in the concepts of freedom, egalitarianism, justice, tolerance, and democracy without being forced to do so, and yet we repeatedly try to force that on others. Our military budget today is larger than that of every other country in the world - combined. Since World War II, we've been stuck in a rut that two of our presidents - Dwight D. Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy - explicitly warned us about, of relying on our military to help make the world safe for its democracies. The saner and smarter alternative, the higher road we need to be taking, is best demonstrated by the work of a man named Greg Mortenson."
