War Pigs - Our New National Anthem

[God]

Since we are quoting songs, Tupac said in one of his songs "We got money for wars but not money to feed the poor".....That is the sad truth.

Trillions have been spent on "Defense". How much has been spent on education, health care, etc...

[WhiteGuySaysThis]

Hey, that is our Presidant for you....He is fighting for his daddy. I don't think he gives a shit about "our boys/girls"

I'm talking about in the history of Government spending.

I'm talking about in the history of Government spending.

I do believe its a global history ... sadly, it seems part of the human condition

[Good Doctor HST]

If War Pigs is our national anthem, then this song can be the new "America The Beautiful":

System Of A Down - BOOM

I've been walking through your streets,
Where all your money's earning,
Where all your building's crying
And clueless neckties working,
Revolving fake lawn houses,
Housing all your fears,
Desensitized by TV,
Overbearing advertising,
God of consumerism,
And all your crooked pictures
Looking good, mirrorism,
Filtering information,
For the public eye,
Designed for profiteering,
Your neighbor, what a guy.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born,
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.

Modern globalization,
Coupled with condemnations,
Unnecessary death,
Matador corporations,
Puppeting your frustrations,
With the blinded flag,
Manufacturing consent,
Is the name of the game,
The bottom line is money,
Nobody gives a fuck.
4000 hungry children leave us per hour,
From starvation,
While billions are spent on bombs,
Creating death showers.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born,
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM
BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM

Why, why, why, why must we kill, kill, kill, kill
Our own, own, own, own kind...

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born,
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM
BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM
Every time you drop the bomb.

Exactly. Those that do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. It is repeated predictably. The inbetween time gets shorter and shorter..The human race is doomed and deservedbly so.

it's up to everyone of us to change this fact though... we are not doomed unless we think we are.
