National defense

            If you believe you have a way of life, a culture if you will, then this post is for you.

            Defense costs money, like it or not. It is normally paid for by the federal taxes we pay, and budgets to expend it all.

            As the old story goes, been then, done that.  Now I guess we will have to go do it again. And by doing it again, I suggest millions of humans are going to have to die in pursuit of national defense, like defending our way of life. It often comes down to just defending our Families.

            Now why do I suggest thinking about the idea of millions dying? Mostly it is because it takes time to "spin up" and defend our way of life if we first disarm.  Those who get committed first are usually less well trained, and training has it value. Often the equipment for it is deficient in quality and quantity, especially at the beginning of the "spin up" period, which is often a year or two in length.   It is because of this human instinct and experience, that I suggest millions may die as a result. These millions will be both civilian, and military.
