Exactly my point quasi, so with that in mind, faced with a lose/lose proposition no matter what we do, why continue to put Americas sons and daughters in harms way trying to defend and protect people all over the world who don't give a fuck about us anyway while we also continue to pour billions after billions of American tax dollars to points all across the globe when no one but us cares about their well being anyway and they DAMNED sure don't give 2 shits about OUR welfare ?
We've spent all I care for us to spend in human life and our hard earned dollars in trying to make the world a safer place for people who in all likelihood will never live here and I think it's time we brought our soldiers home to protect our own country and interests and focused our energies as a nation on the problems within our own borders.
I've said it before but still feel it bears repeating : If we as a nation simply stopped ALL immigration and expelled those who have no legal right to be here, stopped outsourcing our production capabilities and spent as little as 20yrs in an isolationist mode we could make great strides forward in education of our people, improving and providing health care for everyone in our society, and protection of what really matters to most Americans, which is AMERICA !
And since we already possess the strongest national defense system I believe further work in that direction would be a very sensible idea. This is most especially true since if we were to suceed from the international police mans bureau the same countries which now decry our and bemoan our intenational presence now would just as surely turn their whines and hostilities against us because we would then choose to NOT stop their latest threats against them.
Since our international actions only allow failure and our villification as a society in the eyes of most of the rest of the world, I ask again, why should we continue to do so at such a great cost to ourselves ?
Like the old sayin goes "When you find yourself in a hole the 1st best step is to stop diggin."
