Non-Militaristic Wars that have been declared in my lifetime which Americans cannot afford

The War on Poverty; declared by Lyndon Johnson. This will always be un-winnable as long as humans make life decisions that lead them to financial decay, and as long as the government perpetuates poverty by allowing the central bank to inflate the currency through counterfeiting.

The War on Drugs; declared by Richard Nixon and re-declared by the Reagan administration. This war is lost and can never be won. There is two much money on both sides of the issue for it ever to be anything but self perpetuating, and self medication is human weakness that can only be subdued, but not controlled, through education and experience.

The War on Terror; declared by the second Bush administration after the events of 911. This war will self perpetuate as long as we impress our will on foreign soils. The cost, in terms of lost American liberty, has exceeded the monetary cost that has been spent and will be spent since its initiation in 2001 many times over. This lost liberty will never be fully recovered.

The War on Global Warming; declared by presidential candidate Al Gore. This war is based on the egocentric belief that humans have made a permanent, lasting impression on the environment. Global warming is a 10,000 year cyclical phenomena, and the idea that governments can control the weather is utterly absurd.
