Another quote about American politics

This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience... We must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.

Dwight D. Eisenhower
