Privatizing War, For Profit

PRESIDENT TRUMP wants to privatize the seventeen year old war in Afghanistan, America's longest, if not finest. And why not? Our publicly owned government operated socialized military doesn't seem able to close out the ninth inning; the enemy keeps getting people on base, and stealing at will. Like the right winders like to say, socialism just plain don't work. the public streets and highways are no good, our fire and police departments never put out fires or catch criminals, and social security recipients never get paid. When the American socialistic military fights a conventional war, using tanks, B52s, and massed infantry, all goes well. its guerrilla war against small groups of enemy fighters fought in rugged terrain with which the U.S. has the most trouble. We learned that in Viet Nam. Or did we? Trump's for profit scheme would involve involving the infamous Blackwater corporation, mercenaries incorporated. Now is the time to invest. Get in early, before Trump and the big boys swoop in and scoop up all the shares, drive up the share price, and get even richer. And consider this; under private ownership, any war which goes bad, or fails to turn a profit, is likely to be cancelled by the board, without the messy complications associated with the political process. if you think the U.S. will lose in Afghanistan which it apparently already has, sell short. I'd bet against america, since nobody, including the ancient Romans, Napoleon, the Russians, among others has ever invaded, conquered, and maintained control over the fragmented tribal groups which adhere there. Invest at your own risk.
