I wonder if this is what the Soviets proposed right before their collapse. I guess when you're a hammer (Pentagon) you only know how to hit things (war). We may or may not be about to collapse as an empire, but I'm certain that if we follow the plan outlined here, we will collapse as a society. We've already been heading there for quite awhile now. Let's spend more on military while our citizens are jobless, homeless, and dying of sickness, then use propaganda to tell them they're living the high life. There are, unfortunately, enough stupid people in this country to keep such a charade going. The current leadership, both political and military, is just a reflection of that.
