I agree. How can we eliminate bullying in schools and in our neighborhoods when countries, ours included, turn to war as a way of settling disputes? We spend our money on what we value most. What message do we leave with youth, both bullies and those who are bullied, when we allow almost half of our national income to go toward various aspects of war/military/weapons of both individual and mass destruction? The example a nation sets is as important as the example parents set.
