5 Wars That America Must End for Peace and Freedom to Prevail

Here are five wars that must end for peace and freedom to prevail:

Overseas Wars: The imperialistic wars in the oil-rich Arab world are clearly a failure in ideas, morality, and resource allocation. Even if the lies that led us there, and the lies that keep us there, were true, they'd still be flimsy reasons to excuse the countless tragedies involved, not least being the cost in American blood and treasure. The Orwellian nature of perpetual war is a technique that is used by global managers to ensure that even countries like the U.S. that are not experiencing direct confrontation are under a continued threat of economic destabilization and the spread of physical conflict onto their soil.

War on Terror: The War on Terror has been nothing more than a War on Freedom. Americans have lost precious rights to the war on terror, most notably from the USA PATRIOT Act and the recently-passed NDAA.

War on Drugs: The war on drugs benefits a load of special interests but accomplishes nothing; it only damages society. First, the government has no responsibility or authority to govern the private property of our bodies and minds. So, the war itself is an affront to everyone's natural rights, especially noticeable now as the war on drugs expands to food and natural health. Second, when there is demand for something, there will always be a supply no matter how many walls are built and guns are pointed.

Cyber War: The cyber war is really an information war (which we clearly engage in). There is no real threat in the cyber war except from those that benefit from the consolidation of power. Potential hackers are not worth a bloated budget for an army of cyber spies and soldiers when those resources could clearly be used to firewall any sensitive networks against attack.

Class War: A class war has been unofficially waged for over a century. It is a war that has taken away an individual's ability to provide a comfortable living for himself through price inflation of goods and services combined with stagnating wages, stiff regulations as barriers to starting a business, and penalizing production with heavy taxes that pay for this war against us.
