Choose Bernie's culture of life

I have to question not only the moral but mental health of politicians, including mainstream Democrats, who claim that Bernie Sanders’ proposals are impractical and unaffordable, then unquestioningly embrace, like automatons, a yearly increase in America’s now $600 billion military budget.

Any nation that spends its wealth on perpetual war, instead of the health, education and welfare of its own citizens, is a dying culture, not a culture of life.
