USA declared war on drugs, a global campaign to stop the flow of drugs into USA with military intervention. It included prohibition, distribution & consumption of illegal drugs.

#WarOnDrugs was declared by president Nixon in 1971.

A thread 🧵 for your awareness 👇
I’d say the #WarOnDrugs is an epic failure. Listen to this drug cartel member talk about if US authorities being able to stop drugs from crossing the border 🤷‍♂️

Fentanyl is killing lots of people in the US and it’s been getting tougher to stop the flow of Fentanyl from across the border. #WarOnDrugs

#WarOnDrugs has failed both in USA as well as overseas. In US there’s a huge spike in drug related offenses filling up prisons run on taxpayers dime. Overseas lots of busts, arrests and crop destruction in the name of war on drugs 🤷‍♂️

#WarOnDrugs failed. Fentanyl epidemic is really bad in the US.

The term "Military-Industrial Complex" (MIC) was popularized by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in his farewell address in 1961. Here's an explanation of what it entails and how it functions:

### Definition:

The Military-Industrial Complex refers to the relationship between a nation's military, its government defense establishment, and private industry involved in producing arms, military technology, and other defense-related products. This complex has evolved to include think tanks, universities, and other institutions that also contribute to or benefit from defense policy and spending.

### Components:

1. **Government (Military and Defense Departments):**
- The government sets defense policy, determines military needs, and allocates budgets. In the U.S., this primarily involves the Department of Defense (DoD), but also other agencies like the Department of Homeland Security, the CIA, and others involved in national security.

2. **Defense Contractors:**
- These are private companies that design, produce, and sell military hardware, software, and services. Examples include Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Raytheon, and many others. These companies depend on government contracts for a significant portion of their revenue.

3. **Congress:**
- Members of Congress influence defense spending through their ability to authorize and appropriate funds. Defense spending can be a significant economic driver for districts with military bases or defense manufacturing facilities, leading to what's often called "pork barrel" projects.

4. **Think Tanks and Lobbying Groups:**
- These organizations often receive funding from defense companies and advocate for policies that would increase defense spending or favor specific military technologies or strategies.

### How It Works:

- **Budget Cycle:**
- Defense spending is part of the federal budget, which Congress must approve. Lobbying efforts by defense contractors, military leaders, and related interest groups can influence these budgetary decisions.

- **Revolving Door:**
- There's a notable "revolving door" phenomenon where individuals move between positions in the military, defense companies, and government. This can lead to policies that benefit former or future employers due to personal relationships or future career prospects in the defense industry.

- **Research and Development:**
- Significant R&D in military technology is often funded by the government, sometimes through contracts that promise future purchases if the technology proves viable. This intertwines the interests of the military with those of the companies developing these technologies.

- **Economic Impact:**
- Defense spending can significantly impact local economies, especially in areas with defense installations or manufacturing plants. This economic dependency can lead to political support for continued or increased military expenditure.

- **Lack of Accountability:** The complexity and secrecy often associated with defense projects can lead to less accountability regarding costs, effectiveness, and ethical considerations.

- **War as Business:** There's a concern that wars or conflicts might be prolonged or initiated for economic benefits to the defense industry.

- **Influence on Foreign Policy:** The MIC might push for policies that secure markets for defense products, potentially affecting diplomatic relations and international peace.

In essence, while the Military-Industrial Complex has been pivotal in maintaining military readiness and technological superiority, it also poses challenges regarding governance, transparency, and the ethical distribution of public resources. Its operation reflects a deep integration between economic interests, national security, and political power, with significant implications for both domestic policy and international relations.Image

It’s very dangerous to trust government going forward with your children’s health.

COVID disaster was the biggest crime against humanity ever committed by the governments in both size and scale.

Do what’s right for your children’s future, not what’s good for Big Pharma.

ELON MUSK: "It's pretty wild that a tiny tax on tea started the revolution and now we get the living daylights taxed out of us and theres no revolution. You get taxed on what you earned, you get taxed on what you buy, and you get taxed on what you own. Taxes, taxes, taxes, and what does it get spent on? That's why we need to reduce the size of government."

Donald Trump won the 2024 election already. All these campaigns, debates, press events, interviews are a distraction at this point.

The media doesn’t tell you this, but unless there’s a massive election fraud matching the levels of 2020, he’s won.
