"Every gun that is made, every warship
launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense, a theft from
those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of
its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its
children." -- President Dwight D. Eisenhower (Farewell
Address) |
