Treasures are expended, that would suffice to build ten thousand churches, hospitals, and universities, or rib and tie together a continent with rails of iron. If that treasure were sunk into the sea, it would be calamity enough; but it is put to worse use, for it is expended in cutting into the veins and arteries of human life, until the earth is deluged with a sea of blood.
We (the United States) spend more on these wars and on our military defense budget today than all other counteries in the world combined.

such madness; it reminds me of the Spanish empire before it went broke.
