Hello, WWIII, if this ever happens. Russia and China are licking their chops right now. I'm hoping this is just blowing smoke, but you never know.
State socialism is a system in which a large population becomes dependent on the state for its biological survival. Those who are indigent and unable to earn a wage - by reason of physical or mental infirmity, personality, or subjection to discrimination - are nonetheless fed, clothed, housed, and to a degree, entertained. Thus, people who would otherwise be expected to threaten community order, or even launch revolutionary movements, are tethered to the state and pacified.
Calm down. America isn't about to attack Iran. The conspiracy thickens, doesn't it.
Edit: I will adjust my comment. We may strike Iran but there is no way in hell we will go to war in Iran. Personally I have no problem with preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons but I know that isn't really the Paul message but I think we all have our disagreements but support the vast majority of his message.

I've heard enough rhetoric to believe they would strike Iran (the neo-cons are out of their minds), but with how tired the American public is of war, I don't think Americans would stand for it.
Yes, JMann, I'm sure we've got 3 aircraft carriers in the region because we're NOT going to attack Iran. That makes sense.
Well, when it comes to conventional war far, army vs army, our forces really and truly do kick ass. Our problem comes when we entangle our selves in nation building and police actions. But of course, why are we going in? Nuclear weapons? ... this sounds too damn familiar to our reasoning to Iraq. What is the true objective? ... oil, duh.
Sadly any war protests will be met by police action here in the US, and the seizure of personal property. Emperor Bush is on his power trip. Frankly I'm not going to be surprised if in the next few months there will be an "emergency" that he will use to invoke his executive orders.
- We shouldn't have a standing army
- If we used our CIA intelligence back in 2001, 9/11 wouldn't have ever happened.
- What is the reasoning for a draft? If America is being invaded, you don't think it'd be incentive enough for people to want to volunteer? We never need a draft. Volunteers can be an indicator of public support.
