Here is how to end the war
Tell defense contractors that they need to convert to non-profit status to aid the country during it's great "time of need".
Require them to do the patriotic thing and put their profits secondary to service to their country with the same dedication that the troops on the ground do everyday with their lives.

BINGO!

War over!!!

2. I agree. I posted this same idea on DU and 50% DUers attacked me!
A lot of people believe corporations should be allowed to profit off of war while everyone else is sacrificing. About 50% of the replies I got on this site attacked me for suggesting corporations should be forced to sacrifice too. I'm still scratching my head over that one.

But I agree with you 100000000000 percent!

3. No. Lock up all the war profiteers, seize and nationalise their assets for that crime.

And then bring them up on charges for the deaths they caused by pushing their hirelings into approving invasions.
