For the U.S to spend money to make less money in return (i.e by starting aa war for those reasons) simply doesn't make sense.

Who said we started a war? Who said it was the governments gain?

i said the war was a money maker nothing more nothing less... All it did was make the richest richer... Greed fuels wars.. Not the government.

I'm just a little confused though. If you say the war was a money maker, nothing more... why did the war start? If somebody didn't deliberetly start it with dollar signs in their eyes than wouldn't that mean the war was "something more", or that it served a different purpose than making money?

Umm we didnt start vietnam.. we got involved.. kill 10's of thousands.. even when loosing or winning wasnt the issue we kept dying over there... Give me a reason why and help me snuff my conspiracy theories...

To stop the spread of communism?? Sounds like a good excuse...

I didn't say we started Vietnam (although I'll admit that's what I thought you said at first). I see what your saying now, and it's more of a valid point than I originally took it for.

Sweet..

I don't wanna argue just put a lil something out there. However I could be 100% wrong... Now we move to the God thread and see if the lord jesus christ shows up to put the proof in the pudding ... lol
