you paid for those planes and yet you have no say-so and how they are used or even the fact that the decision was made to purchase those planes.

Oh, and by the way, thank you for your 'voluntary contribution' to the war machine!!

I think that every time that the military wishes to fly a plane, there should be a nationwide referendum on the idea. We can have polling places open 24/7/365 (paper ballots, please, to combat that pervasive voting fraud) so has not to unduly hinder the military's ability to defend our country...

I've got a couple of 55 gallon barrels of Kool-aid on the ready. Just say the word.

I find myself conflicted; my blood family fought in George Washington's army against the british during the American revolution. I myself served in the U.S. military. That said, through much study, I find myself believing less and less in the "system".

In other words, while others may be "believers", I myself am no longer a "believer".
