Peace and Justice!
The road to peace and justice is guarded by a heavily armed and well funded triumvirate of media, government and business concerns. General Electric owns NBC and is a huge defense contractor. They own some congressmen outright and lease several others. Halliburton, defense contractor, oil company and political machine is another all purpose entity. Not often does one company make so much for so few at the expense of so many! "Hally" even had it's own full time lobbyist in the White House for 8 years, the irrepressible Dick Cheney.All the issues that face this country and this planet are a direct result of the this three headed chimera putting forward it's agenda in complete disregard for the consequences. Our energy, population, health care, climate, economic and defense policies are not formulated to ensure and promote peace or justice. To the "big guys", peace is a feel good word that comes with "stability", although neither are attained. Justice is a word that is only used in conjunction with prisons or courts and is conditional based on an individuals economic status.
