“He was the future he was a perfect picture of the future and they were afraid to let anyone see what the future was like. Already they were looking ahead they were figuring the future and somewhere in the future they saw war. To fight that war they would need men and if men saw the future they wouldn’t fight. So they were masking the future they were keeping the future a soft quiet deadly secret. They knew that if all the little people all the little guys saw the future they would begin to ask questions. They would ask questions and they would find answers and they would say to the guys who wanted them to fight they would say you lying thieving sons-of-bitches we won’t fight we won’t be dead we will live we are the world we are the future and we will not let you butcher us no matter what you say no matter what speeches you make no matter what slogans you write.”

Thank you for your article. The more I learn about prior wars, the more I agree with your premise. I also believe the best way to honor said brave men and women is to not play the elites’ game. Learning how to be independent food wise, health wise, and educating myself independently, trying to tease the truth out of what is available, is a great way to honor those Americans who deserve honor and respect.
