President Obama will sign the measure this week to end D.A.D.T.-the policy requiring homosexuals to keep their non-heterosexuality to themselves. The change in Republican votes may have involved some secret deals for supporting tax cuts for the rich by Democrats. The tax cut extension passed last week.
A noted historian James Van Creeveld classified such personnel composition transitions within the 'Men Without Chests' era in his book 'The Culture of War'. Such transitions historically are implicit within a socially decadent cycle of civilization. Same-sex socialization in the military coincides with both major political parties in agreement on tax cuts for the wealthy that allow 1-2% of the people to own 25% of the nation's wealth as that concentration continues.
