The Real 800 Pound Gorilla That Controls The Realm
No one can deny the effects that the Military-Industrial Complex (MIC) has had on the United States of America. President Dwight D. Eisenhower aptly warned the world what would inevitably develop when any nation commits itself to a perpetual war economy. Or, maintains such a large military during peacetime.
However, very few understand that the MIC was only one component of a much larger complex now known as the Government-Corporate Complex. Truly, it is theGovernment-Corporate Complex (GCC) which poses a much greater threat to world peace and social order, global financial security and economic stability, as well as the integrity of the biosphere and environmental protection.
Was the Military-Industrial Complex actually a red herring?
Studying the MIC as a microcosm of the GCC can be quite instructive and revealing about how the much bigger GCC entity operates throughout the world today. It it true that even in times of relative peace, the MIC does everything within its power to ensure it’s prosperity, just as the Department of Defense (read War) does everything to ensure its survival during periods without war. In so doing, the MIC has been hard-wired from its very inception to guarantee the millions employed by the countless defense-related industries and services a paycheck, no matter what the prospects for war-making. Which is one of the primary reasons why so much enthusiastic support for all things military has always reigned supreme in the political process of the USA. And so it will for the foreseeable future.
However, there is a much more profound reason about how and why the USA was destined to become the “Military Arm of the New World Order“. The very notion of theMilitary-Industrial Complex was first publicized as both a diversion away from as well as an unwitting clue about the “real 800 pound gorilla” that has been clandestinely flexing its muscles across the planet for many decades, if not centuries.
