The Cold War Was A Spending War

“…we won the Cold War without ever
having to match armies and nuclear arsenals
with the Soviet Union,” say
Henry Allen’s Washington Post.

THAT war was run by proxies
with little or no Russian or American
blood spilled but blood was spilled
proxie Afghan blood
proxie Indonesia blood
THEN what happened?
we could not proxie the Vietnam War!
WHY is America trying again
for proxies in Afghanistan and Iraq?
OIL!
gOTTA feed The tiGer in our tank?
How much blood does it take to make one gallon of gas?
I DON’T KNOW!
One drop of blood per gallon or a zillion?
How much blood per gallon is too much?
You tell me SUV!
One things fer sure
the ratio is growing exponentially!
