He talks about the need for overcoming Americans’ understanding of the war machine as a jobs engine and militarism as a normal way of life, and for broader understanding of the Military Industrial Complex as the top opponent of all that is good and just, broader-based opposition to not only domestic surveillance drones but also our killer drones abroad, and more!

The coal, oil, gas, nuclear industries -- the Energy Industrial Complex -- depend on a complex, embedded and profitable supply chain ... mine/drill, refine, store, transport, store, burn. These power all Congressional Districts. The mine/drill gang also trades the commodities extracted ... so only sell when the price is right. With Enhanced Geothermal Systems, all energy is straight down, no burn, no carbon, from a limitless resource. No campaign funds. oops.
