I recently retired as an em-
ployee with Portland Public
Schools and had to decide what
to do with 1 of 2 of my Pub-
lic Employee Retirement Sav-
ings accounts - to keep it going
or cash out. Because I couldn’t
stomach my money being invest-
ed by PERS in the stocks of the
war machine, I decided to roll it
over into a socially conscientious
IRA at my bank. Now my other
PERS account I have no control
over and it sends me my monthly
retiree payments. I am upset that
a portion of this money comes
from the war machine.
Excessive military spending
is undermining the well-being
of our communities and drain-
ing our non-military sectors.
The Pentagon’s bloated budget
accounts for over half of federal
discretionary spending at a time
when our communities are suf-
fering, much of it going directly
to private corporations. War is
a tool for asserting military and
economic dominance, and for
protecting the interests of mili-
tary contractors--not the lives of
ordinary community members.
US military interventions
and US-produced weapons have
played a leading role in displac-
ing millions of people around the
world. Conservative estimates
show the US interventions in
Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan
alone since 2001 have displaced
10 million people. The U.S. war
machine must be held account-
able for its role in creating the
global refugee crisis.
Our communities underwrite
weapons manufacturing corpora-
tions through our public invest-
ments, including city funds, pub-
lic university endowments, and
through public employee pension
funds.
Weapons manufacturers see
a rise in their stock value when
war and conflict increase across
the globe. These corporations
are literally making a killing on
killing. Why are we underwriting
their profit with the public funds
in our cities, our public univer-
sity endowments and our public
employee pension funds.
