The US government has literally killed 100 million people since 1945.<br><br>With that number, I'm not even counting the average murder rate in American cities that have been sacrificed to crime and gang violence. I'm not even counting the average rate of car accidents and other injuries that happen on our highways and roads. All these things are ignored. When you look at the numbers directly, the US Government has murdered or caused to be murdered over 100 million people.<br><br>And that's a conservative number. The real number is likely much higher. I'm assuming about 1 in 10 people from wars actually die from the violence, and the rest die from the aftermath like injury, starvation, exposure, disease, refugees, etc. I'm not including murder rates or accidents or other reasons that people might die.<br><br>This isn't even including what the US government has done to the Native American population. This isn't including what the US government did to the slaves. I'm only counting the wars after 1945.<br><br>Korean War (1950-1953): 3 million people died<br><br>Vietnam War (1955-1975): 6 million people died<br><br>Iraq War (2003-2011): 600,000 people died<br><br>Afghanistan War (2001-present): 220,000 people died<br><br>Syrian War (2011-present): 500,000 people died<br><br>Yemeni War (2015-present): 400,000 people died<br><br>Libyan War (2011): 30,000 people died<br><br>Somali War (2009-present): 200,000 people died<br><br>Lebanese War (1982-1990): 200,000 people died<br><br>Grenada War (1983): 100 people died<br><br>Panamanian War (1989-1990): 3,500 people died<br><br>Bosnian War (1992-1995): 100,000 people died<br><br>Kosovan War (1998-1999): 13,000 people died<br><br>Congolese War (1996-1997): 250,000 people died<br><br>Colombian War (1964-present): 1 million people died<br><br>Nicaraguan War (1981-1990): 30,000 people died<br><br>Angolan War (1975-2002): 1 million people died<br><br>Mozambican War (1977-1992): 1 million people died<br><br>South African War (1975-1990): 1.5 million people died<br><br>We're at 22 million people right there. I'm not including any other military interventions, and I'm also not including any other war.<br><br>I'm going to assume that for every 1 person that dies in war, 9 people are affected by the war. I'm assuming that for every 1 person that dies from war, 9 people are displaced or become refugees or lose their homes or families or have injuries or diseases as a result of the war. <br><br>So that's 22 million x 10 = 220 million people. And that's a conservative estimate.<br><br>With just this number alone, the US government has killed, injured, or displaced over 220 million people. But like I said, the US government has also sacrificed US cities and has allowed crime and gang violence to be rampant in certain cities. The US government has also sacrificed American workers and has allowed the corporations to get rich off of cheap labor and consumer debt and outsourcing jobs and laying off workers and automation. The US government has also sacrificed the environment and has allowed big companies to dump toxic waste and pollution into the soil, water, and air.<br><br>So with all these other numbers, the US government has actually killed and injured and displaced over 1 billion people. And that's a conservative estimate.<br><br>And that's just since 1945. If you count all the wars and violence and crime and death that the US government has been responsible for in its entire history, the number would be astronomically higher.
