Bruce Gagnon on Endless War & the Economy

Anti-war and anti-nuke activist Bruce Gagnon explains how militarism is detroying the American economy and the lives of Americans. In this segment, he discusses his radicalization during his own military service . . . and the connections among our crumbling infrastructure, increasing unemployment, decreasing educational opportunities for working-class kids, the increasing militarization of our society, the export of weapons (our #1 export), aggressive U.S. foreign policy, corporate globalization, our ruling elites' desire to control the world's oil supply, . . . and the wisdom of Progressives' forming alliances with the "Tea-partiers."
