Have you ever heard of the "Industrial-Military Complex"? It had
been so chillingly described by Eisenhower as being above ANY
type of oversight, and living it's own life according to it's
own agenda.... And yet Ike Eisenhower was a Republican and knew
a thing or two about the Army!
To think that a change in the White House is going to bring
about a change in the way the Military and their affiliates do
their business is pure delusion, IMNSHO!
