Cost of War vs Money for Education and Environment

This is my experiment with a video blog entry which I’m publishing to Facebook, this blog and YouTube. My daughter, Tasha, tells me the test will be the number of hits on YouTube. That thinking is what has led me to this experiment. I’ve read that the younger generation is using YouTube to a very great extent. They are searching there more than even on Google (which is ok because I think Google owns YouTube!). That generation has become so visual and oral that they are moving away from text format I fear. So will the future be that our commentaries, if to reach the widest audience, will have to be by video, rather than in print? So let’s see what happens with this video.

The video is a brief integration of some news articles and a few thoughts of the cost of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan versus what leadership would be shown by the use of that money in the areas of education and the environment.
