American University Professor David Vine has developed a powerful critique of the war mentality that America takes for granted. We argue about whether we should be a "welfare state." Why don't we argue about whether we should remain a "warfare state." In this episode, he discusses two of his books, The United States of War and Base Nation, and what lessons they teach us now.
