a public service announcement from the military industrial complex

BE AFRAID! BE VERY AFRAID!!!

That way, you keep funding us and all our pork projects.
You stay employed making weapons of mass destruction, we take the massive profits we make from over-priced weapons sales, sales of these weapons to our "allies" and "enemies" and then you employ us to clean up the mess the weapons make! Rebuild infrastructures to our "specifications" and of course construct new "democracies" from the ground up! It's all good!

We just have to close the loop with the health care industry, and we're almost there!
Just keep taking all that serial medication your doctor prescribes. Doctors from the schools we fund!

As long as you stay afraid of the one-eyed cleric in Afghanistan and all the terrorists around the world who are threatening to take away all your vast freedoms! Freedoms which by-the-way, we afford you through our benevolence. You wouldn't want to loose all the freedom to get into massive debt going to school with the bleak hopes of getting a good paying job, pay off that loan working for a low paying wage, get in more debt and be afraid to lose that job because you'll lose your health care!

But those terrorist will get you if you don't watch out! We're not the enemy! It's those guys with the towels on their heads! Over there! Look over there!

We're only here to protect you and this great country from the demise that those terrorists are plotting! In these hard times we are especially vulnerable! Think of the plans those rogue groups could be making! We are more vulnerable now than ever! Why we can't underfund the military now!

We remain unscathed by the current global crisis because we and our interest holders have certain "securities" in place that insulate us from the current maelstrom. heh, heh, heh.

So remember, we count on you being afraid. It keeps this economy running smoothly. Without your fear, you wouldn't support massive military missions and hardware and software projects. Technological advances are achieved because of your fear, so you see, without fear, we would be back in the dark ages! Fear drives evolution!

Next time you look in the mirror, imagine the one-eyed cleric looking back at you and ask yourself; "Am I ready for this guy to run America?" If your answer is; "No" you know who to support.
