The exposure to the mass manipulation of our children, inundating them to war terms; as well, as adults, as if it will simply wear us down and go unnoticed and/or accepted is a delusion on the media’s part.

And while it remains true, that the voting alternative to Pres. Obama winning the next election, would cause a descent that wouldd be beyond belief with irreversible consequences; it is also true that we must hold the President accountable for promoting war and raising our children & adolescents, to think of themself as being of value and having a future ONLY by becoming soldiers. This is already a tragedy of mass proportions!
Their self-esteem is often incredibly low and many do not see school as an option due to the cost of it. But in addition, peer pressure o be tough falls right into affirming oneself by joining the military, getting a salary, possibly and possibly a home one day; because there is little or no alternative and our youth know that already.

We know why there are few alternatives for them, And why aren’t there more alternatives for them? Because the war wheel was designed way before they were born, to give them too few options and no choice.

That’s why.

As it happens, I will be on WTCC 90.7 FM radio (STCC) The Lewis and Morrow Financial Hour from 9-10 AM this Wed, Feb,1, 2012 and I plan to discuss this further with them. The program can be streamed, will be recorded and up on my website several days afterwards. My own book is titled “Talking About Race: A Workbook About White People Fostering Racial Equality in Their Lives”, I hope you and your readers can tune in.
