Love this post. Wars can only happen if you let them. You don't have to fight. How many people can the government lock up? Or kill for not fighting? Probably a lot. I would rather die that way than die trying to kill someone for Bush.

It's not just capitalism and financial systems that are crashing down around us. It started with people's laziness allowing greedy, corrupt, evil, etc. rulers and politicians to do as they please while they strip us of our liberties and rights. It starts with people. There are several dozen members belonging to RINF. We need thousands and then millions. I will get 3 new members to this site by this time tomorrow.
