Afternoon High Tea
The military industrial complex is directed by capital, not politics. Politics is subservient to wealthy conservative families backed by wealthy conservative private institutions. No matter how “we-the-people” might think we have a say, we don’t.
We-the-people vote for parties, and the money decides on the people who actually run the things. It’s a clever little ruse designed to make us think our votes matter and it lets the money make even more money by writing their campaigning sponsorships off to tax.
