I mean, let's look at this here. The Iraq war has killed what, 2,500 Americans, roughly? Yet at the same time, Halliburton alone employs tens of thousands of Americans. Furthermore, Pakistan is using "our fucking money" to buy all sorts of crap from all sorts of Americans. So maybe you might want to look at the logical standard you refer to as "the people".
i guess it depends on what you are willing to do for it...i could make some quick money if i robbed a gas station, halliburton makes money doing 'energy' work w/ countries like iran, syria, iraq (including oil for food and being fined for violating sanctions) until 2000, they make money now overcharging and taking our tax money when it could be used more wisely, and yes to the benefit of the majority, elsewhere
what would benefit only a minority?standin above the crowd
he had a voice that was strong and loud and
i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
eager to identify with
someone above the crowd
someone who seemed to feel the same
someone prepared to lead the way0
