Thanks Lee as always.
Before he left office Eisenhower publicly warned the American people about the dangers of the military industrial complex. Since then the budgets have got a hell of alot bigger and the wars become harder to justify. CIA schills in the media makes perfect sense.
I saw David Stockman (former budget director under Reagan) being interviewed on CNBC about the recent stock market crash. Stockman said the U.S. was heading towards bankruptcy and needed to cut back on certain things such as the half a trillion defence budget. The TV anchor woman looked at Stockman as if he was stark raving crazy and took great offence at his comment saying ,' Do you want to leave our nation defenceless!''.

Yet, Eisenhower really helped get that ball rolling and gave that speech AFTER the fact. He did not do a damn thing to rectify the situation.
Ike realized that he was part of the big dupe and seemingly regretted it.
