The Spirit of '43

http://spirit.aplysia.net
On February 4, 2008 President George W. Bush unveiled its proposed Fiscal Year 2009 Budget: a $ 3.1 trillion budget. More than $ 500 billion will go to the Pentagon. That means a boost of military spending of more than 7%, not counting war spending (another $ 70 billion each 5 months). When President's budget will be approved (in October), annual military spending, when adjusted for inflation, will have reached its highest level since World War II. At the same time US deficit will grow up to more than $ 400 billion, while Medicare and Medicaid spending will go down. In the web clip "The spirit of '43" you'll find a creative telling of this story, narrated through the use of different video footage, including a 1943 Walt Disney's cartoon.
