    I’m going to answer this with a ‘yes’ and a ‘no’.

    If I were the president of the United States, I would only use the military if a negotiation could not be met between the ‘oppressor’, and the ‘oppressed’. I think of an army as a nation’s organized way to defend itself. It’s not always needed, but it’s good to have.

    Do you remember 911, then how can you say America, does not need an army? Land of the FREE and home of the BRAVE, didn’t get that way, by letting people run over us. America, needs to protect itself for these stupid people, who are jealous of our country……..Yes, we need an army!

    Reasonable humans are unquestionably able to solve problems without violence. But sadly power tends to fall into the hands of unreasonable humans. So an Army is vital to the survival of the nation.

    Violence does not bring about peace; ergo it follows that war will not bring peace.
    An army does not exist to benefit the people. An army benefits only the rich (i.e. defense companies and those with vested interests in said companies) by death and destruction. An army exists to maintain the status quo and preserve the undeserved privilege and wealth of the elite.

    The only reason an army exists is to declare war on other nations. It is simply not necessary. In the last instance it is used to keep down the masses

    Army is related only to war and war is not a natural condition. An ideal world (probably utopia, though) lives without war and therefore needs no army.

    Apparently we haven’t learned to settle matters in a civilized way without conflicts and bloodshed.
