“War is an instrument entirely inefficient toward redressing wrong; and multiplies, instead of indemnifying losses.”

1,000 wrongs do not make a right....once the war ball starts rolling it just picks up momentum and crushes everything in its path.

Have you noticed that our government always has the country involved in some kind of a war. Wars on poverty, obesity, cancer, hunger, and those pesky shooting wars where people actually get killed. People will give up all sorts of rights when the country is involved in one of those wars where people get shot and blown up, which could be a clue why government keeps one going most of the time.

War is the only way to prop up a society dependent upon perpetual debt and empty promises. It is due to the supreme ignorance of the fact that 'the emperor wears no clothes.'

I would be free, rather than not. Eventually, the Hitlers, Stalins, occupying statist theocracy now infesting this land, etc. make mortal efforts inevitable in attempting to throw off the chains of the despotic oppressors. Is that war an instrument, entirely inefficient toward redressing wrong or indemnifying losses? The individual must make their own choice.
