Julio Torres

I have been in the military for ten years and saw many needless issues that were brought up in that time with the wars. The issue of the poor being used to fight the war, the issue of ex-military equipment being use by police, and the issue of falsifying reasons to go to war with the excuse of fighting against tyranny and for democracy. I am tired of a feudal hierarchy which is communist in nature being used to perpetuate the misery of capitalism which fails on its own merits because it survives on tax dollars and tax breaks. All done through some connection to wars being fought. For six years I was active duty military intelligence. I left for the reserves. for two years I worked in training and operations as an Intel analyst and for two years I have been a Chaplain Assistant. I have a BA in Global History and am working on a Masters of Divinity (M. Div.).
