This an easy answer, however the problem with any solution is that whatever approach must be written and passed by both houses.
 
Cut the military down a reasonable size and equip it for actual defense rather than projection of power which has been failing for decades. Given the recent devopments with drones and missiles it's gonna have to happen anyway. But actual cutting is politically impossible. Until we start firing people en masse and start being honest with ourselves it's not gonna happen.

yur right, it's not gonna happen.

from the Prophetic or the Political side or any side, we are going into a period of WAR, not peace.

and we The Sheep are gonna stop this ???

ok, show me Practically how that gonna happen please. we can hardly get the Towel paper changed in the Bathroom and you want to stop the Oligarchs pushing WW three? they WANT population reduction, and didn't kill enuf with Covid, so they turn on their War machine.

simple? well seems to be that way IMHO.

carry one friends.

The correct answer is not given as a choice in the OP:

Get the big money out of Congress. Return our government to the representative form of government outlined in the Constitution.
 
To start with I would ban Super PACs, so called 'dark monies'.
These are political committees that can, and do, allow unlimited and anonymous personal and corporate donations to political election campaigns.

IMO Super PACS are undemocratic. In essence it negates the “one man, one vote” BS we’ve been spoon fed all these years.
 
Make your case to the voters, convince them of the merits of your position, and elect members of Congress who share your goals.

lol

waiting to "get" the change made by someone else
 
.

the issue is that the Electorate is virtually non-essential​
donors and politicians can supply each other with pretty much everything they need to stay in business
that's why major donors get what they want and the electorate do not​

Thank you.
Other. US Media do a shitty job of covering important public issues, whether they be scientific or political. They are too busy covering fluff for their LGBTQPOC+ Liberal target audience. That's a lot easier than doing investigative reporting.

Ah let's see..................


The term "military industrial complex" was coined by Eisenhower in his final address (?) in 1960.

65 years later we're what? Wondering if is exists or pissed off that it does?

And why stop it?

this



money is the key - why are GOP/Trump wanting to sell public land? their donor's will buy it and make a fortune. How did Pelosi and others do SO well on stocks? they knew what was coming. How did Hunter Biden make a fortune ? access to Joe and the White House

and on and on and when those big donor's come a knocking, the elected officials will make moves so the donor's can make fortunes


everyone knows it - not many talk about it
 
You forgot:
O - Stop 3rd world countries from sending terrorists all over the ****ing world
O- Talk other nation-states into overthrowing the various dictators of the world and putting in place a more sensible form of government.

yes, we all know about it.

the question always remains: how do you un-corrupt a corrupt Dee Cee ?

i know one way, but everyone says, Not in my Back Yard. so the idea become DOA.

it is Irrelevant whether someone thinks the Red team or the Blue team can fix it, when both teams are part of the Corruption.

we are Long on Reality and short on Real Reform. some may say 'term limits', but that is all i have heard for ages of time.



thanks Stealth, at least you admit the problem. but if someone here thinks that only One certain party is to blame, then they become part of the continuous problem that never gets resolved.

GOP controls Congress ... right ? how many bills have they signed/passed ?? hmm ??? highly disappointing as a conservative GOP voters :( but they're ready to sign a big beautiful bill spending trillions .... sounds like Obama years, Trump 1.0 years and Biden years doesn't it ?

different Congress, same outcome :(
