Fantastic 4-minute Animation on Military Spending

With enough Advertisements for Sanity like this, we could change the world.

Thanks to DUer CrispyQ for turning me on to this. Interesting animation makes graphs dynamic and visually interesting, and incorporates real cartoonized video to simplify production of sequences that would be laborious to animate. Very creative and well done.

People of the world, together
Join to serve the common cause!
So it feeds us all for ever
See to it that it's now yours.

Forward, not forgetting
Where our strength can be seen now to be!
When starving or when eating
Forward, not forgetting
Our solidarity!

Black or white or brown or yellow
Leave your old disputes behind.
Once start talking with your fellow
Men, you'll soon be of one mind.

Forward, not forgetting
Where our strength can be seen now to be!
When starving or when eating
Forward, not forgetting
Our solidarity!

If we want to make this certain
We'll need you and your support.
It's yourselves you'll be deserting
if you rat on your own sort.

All the gang of those who rule us
Hope our quarrels never stop
Helping them to split and fool us
So they can remain on top.

Forward, not forgetting
Till the concrete question is hurled
When starving or when eating:
Whose tomorrow is tomorrow
And whose world is the world

Solidarity!
Solidarity!
Solidarity!
