You cut the deficit in the areas where it is being created. It's been criticized Central it into area and escalating. Capital intensive military budget and wasteful we can cut the military budget without cutting our defense those extra 21 MX missiles unnecessary information security so you can cut it at the area of cost overruns and unnecessary Weapons Systems on the military side on the other hand corporations must pay their taxes and when they get tax break have attached to that tax break an obligation to reinvest in this economy and retrain this Workforce Andre industrialized Nation as a priority, you're sending cannot balance the budget of General Electric get to six and a half billion dollar profit and pays no taxes. If not a thousand Corporation make a profit and pay no taxes. And so you challenge Corporation to pay your fair share of taxes on the one hand and cut the military. But it without telling on offense only other you text farmers who are producing and U-turn tax consumers in the tax producers by allow Farmers to feed the world, which is that how is ended greatest calling? I do not think very much of the Star Wars playing all the star Warriors. I think that what they do is that they create and people a lot of insecurities on the unknown. And then tell you they have a solution that's incomprehensible. But insecurity that they have created one big Miss number for example is a defense system. The reality is that is no defense system against a nuclear attack. We are alive today because Russia decided not to kill us last night and they all live because we decided not to kill them. That's not the best. That's the terror. If F in Western Europe rubber ducks dial, I'd bass and Eastern Europe represents.

What the minds of people giving the impression we can stop we can save America on nuclear attack cuz we cannot. Yeah, I know.

Even the grace commission report put that vest for some modest shows billions of dollars of cost overruns little games. They have been going through with Gerald electric and General Dynamics.

Are we going to challenge All Nations including our own Nation to engage an economic and cultural isolation against South Africa and southern Africa? What's up? Africa is an occupier. We cannot maintain our self-respect and remain in South Africa's number one trading partner and for the record Russia or the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe is not supporting South Africa. It's America Israel Anthem written in Japan and West Germany Western democratic nations, use South Africa as an economic prostitute and use slave labor with undercut organized labor and have no regard for human rights and then call ourselves free democratic. It's time the end that relationship lie. Not you know I mentioned in the South African question. and the arms race could I get the school to take a major position and prepare to engage in a major demonstration to choose Farms over arms and save farms in Minnesota. MLK in Minnesota Minnesota weather in Minnesota Great. I'm all for saving South Africa.

It's not just a regular small business after all an industrialized Nation needs farming. And steal away that does not need electric razors and washing machines and Gucci shoes. And so for us to jeopardize the most basic industry in a society that are feeding people. To me. It does not make a sense beyond that the strongest weapon America really has in the third world is not bombs, but food is sold. Last night all the small businesses can't wipe out malnutrition. in the sky Which of course I'll give it to the bad hell and cuts the lifespan of a small businesses. I'm not be installed in Ethiopia and Somalia on a sedan.

He has been stripped of the most Elemental right extremism something that you can have literally a white Dropout who was a drunk and imbecilic having more rights than Bishop tutu. That's from the Midland roast is just wrong. It has to change. That's all. My attitude about it is not punitive because I think that is a formula in South Africa in French eismont of the people who deserve investment, but for disenfranchisement that must be this investment and divestment that's a live option the price you pay for justice sweet fruit the price you pay for Injustice is bitter fruit. At least you have a choice of high row with a low row.
