The budget provides <a href=\"http:\/\/www.defenselink.mil\/releases\/release.aspx?releaseid=11663\">$515.4 billion <\/a>in discretionary authority for the Department of Defense, a $35.9 billion increase over the enacted level for 2008. <\/p>\n<p>Recently, US Defense Secretary, Robert Gates, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.msnbc.msn.com\/id\/16576547\/\">announced<\/a> an increase of 92,000 more troops over the next 5 years to support the Iraq &#038; Afghanistan wars. Congress adds to the military escalation with its <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tomdispatch.com\/post\/174884\">contracts and subcontracts<\/a> for weapons systems that are carefully doled out to as many states as possible. This means &#8220;jobs&#8221; to replace those lost jobs which produced goods for the American consumer.<\/p>\n<p>What many missed on the recent troop increase by Gates, was his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.msnbc.msn.com\/id\/16576547\/\">abandoning<\/a> the limit on the time a &#8220;citizen-soldier&#8221; can be required to serve on active duty for the National Guard and Reserve. What else could this mean, but the creation of militaristic state in America &#8212; and as Chalmers warns, the collapse of America as a constitutional republic? <\/p>\n<p><center> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.realjewnews.com\/to\/pictures\/singlep.jpg\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p><center><strong><font size=\"4\" color=\"FF0000\">THE THIRD STEP &#8211; IMPERIALISM VS DEMOCRACY<\/center><\/strong><\/font> <\/p>\n<p><strong><font size=\"3\" color=\"009900\">&#8220;IMPERIALISM NECESSITATES<\/strong><\/font> a domestic dictatorship,&#8221; argues Chalmers Johnson in an interview with <em>Democracy Now! <\/em> Johnson has this to say:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.realjewnews.com\/to\/pictures\/cjohn.jpg\" \/> <font color=\"3333FF\">&#8220;Standing armies, perpetual wars, a military establishment, and a military-industrial complex, all draw power away from the legislative &#038; judicial branches of government to the presidency, creating an imperial presidency.<\/p>\n<p>An imperial presidency then implements the military\u2019s desire for secrecy, making oversight of the government almost impossible for a member of Congress, even, much less for a citizen&#8221;<\/font> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.democracynow.org\/2007\/2\/27\/chalmers_johnson_nemesis_the_last_days\">Here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We are now in the midst of a financial crisis.
