US taxpayers are born into lifelong slavery to the Pentagon. "Both" political parties are happy to be powerless over the big, bad US war machine, are fine with the fact that, without provocation, US has annexed one third of Syria and won't even allow starving Syrians to grow crops on the land.

Thanks Mark! I watched the Duran video earlier and had wanted to detail the specific points about the global economy and The USA's hegemonic destruction of its vassal states or other counties in order to procure other countries resources. I have watched a good bit of Tom Luongo's videos and have read several of his posts on his blog Gold, Goats, and Guns. While I appreciate many of his points, his ego gets in the way of his clarity. I also watched The Duran post with Professor John Mearsheimer. It was an excellent complement to the post with Alastair Crooke. For me, in the midst of the current gloom, at least a small amount of understanding of what has brought us to this current sad state of affairs is sinking in to my small intellect. The confusion remains as to the way out of the Gordian knot.
