In the words of Ike Eisenhower in his farewell speech said, we must guard against the acquisition of "unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex," mentioning Congress. The complex, later known as the Utopia, can pay for stuff when no one else can or will. They are not the free world that they claim to be, but they will do until the real free world gets here.
@IndigoR What's really sad are the commercials for cigarettes. If he only realized what they were doing to his arteries. From what I read, during his final fatal heart surgery, his arteries literally disintergrated in the surgeon's hands.

@GameOver1260 Fine words. How they relate to the video is my question. Please try to stay on topic with the comments.

@rolko52 - I suppose the irony is that your "unwarrented infulence" over policeing the commenters when they stray from topic.

I smiled when I saw Sanka Coffee. Rod Serling is too cool.

@rolko52 Such a pity. I'm certain if he was aware of the full implications of smoking, he would have rebuked them.

@rolko52: they've mentioned he was on 4 packs a day...no one can survive that...I guess Rod and Uncle Walt can compare notes in Heaven...
