Former U.S. Representative Ron Paul posted the following message to his Facebook page on Friday…
The U.S. military budget dwarfs every other country on the planet combined.
Do you know how much the Pentagon spent between 1998 and 2015 that is “unaccounted for”?
TWENTY-ONE TRILLION DOLLARS
$21,000,000,000,000
Where did it go?
No one knows…it’s “unaccounted for”.
The role of government must SERIOUSLY be reconsidered in America.
Without being technically at war with anyone in particular, the U.S. is dropping a bomb somewhere in the world every 12 minutes, around the clock.
The U.S. has 1,000 military bases scattered across the planet.
Congress, not only doesn’t declare war, as they’re required to by the U.S. Constitution, but they’re surprised to find out that American troops are peppered throughout Africa too.
The role of government must SERIOUSLY be reconsidered in America.
Peace … Non-intervention in the affairs of foreign nations … Free Trade … Travel.
These principles have long been gone.
It’s time to revive them.
