As we see the violence in Ferguson, MO,

which looks WAY different after seeing the big, black, bully/punk steal the cigars from the convenience store, we see the Iraq-surplus, bomb proof military vehicles, weapons and gear being used by the cops, which makes them seem much more like soldiers than police. Not getting into whether it is warranted or not, BUT, it does give a glimpse of how much US tax money was spent in Iraq, as billions were paid to 'defense' contractors after Bush/Haliburton/Big Oil decided to (very successfully) raise the price of oil (over ten-fold). If you ever need to figure out WHY an unnecessary war like Iraq 'happens', just 'Follow The Money', and it gets real obvious. The bomb and bullet mfgrs, along with Humvee and helmet makers 'made a killing' and now some of the surplus is being handed out to police forces across the country. It is better than leaving it behind, as much of it was, where it is now in the hands of the 'bad guys' who were kept at bay, until The Dick, and his little buddy GW, decided to lie us into war. As always, when in doubt, just 'follow the money'.
