> Umm, The cold war never ended. It has waxed and waned, and it has rotated into economic, information, and mimetic warfare over the decades. The US government and NATO have been investing in our military for decades for more reasons than just corruption.

Can we avoid the "We have always been at war with Eurasia" style rhetoric?

There have been explicit conflicts and wars over the years (US/Middle East, Israel/Palestine, etc) but we aren't at a constant state of global war or global Cold War.
