Vigil at Lockheed Friday
Monday, September 22 2008 @ 01:50 PM by Craig Wiesner
The burma shave for this Friday's vigil reads:
LOCKHEED LOBBIED FOR A WAR NOW ITS STOCK EARNS 6 TIMES MORE Most people don't want war with all its death, destruction, and suffering. There is a small but powerful minority, however, that not only becomes war but actively promotes it - the war profiteers that come in two breeds. First are the weapons merchants who siphon off billions in taxpayer dollars to build devices that destroy. Then when cities and infrastructure lay in shambles, the "reconstruction" contractors step in to sap billions more in taxpayer dollars - frequently without competitive bid and with no oversight to prevent fraud. War profiteers put their own gain above people's lives and human rights. Lockheed Martin tops the list of global military contractors. (quote from Bob Aldridge, former Lockheed engineer)....for a more detailed explanation see www.WeVigil.org Please join us on the corner of 5th & Mathilda at 12:10 to exercise our constitutional right to public speak out about Lockheed Martin and how they have earned extremely large sums of money with our tax dollars. Come by light rail or park on 5th. Any questions call Peggy at 408-221-3424
