That's why it's GOOD that YOU are NOT IN CHARGE (and NEVER will be).
People like YOU pose the overseas THREATS that YOU claim we need a big military for.

I have to admit, there is a certain poetic irony in that. Your posts loudly proclaim "we need a big military to protect the world from people like me"!!!!!!!!

But answer this-what if the US cut our military down to almost nothing. Cut off all aid to the world. Kicked all the illegals out and make it much tougher to immigrate here (like Canada has done).

If we refocused on making the best products in the world again like we did decades ago, and with our technology innovation being the top in the world with no one else close-I wonder just how well we would be doing?

Canada would have to build a military, probably cooperatively with Britain but it would still cost trillions of dollars. That is where the national debt starts.

Personally, I would love to see the US do exactly that. Become much more isolationist. Leave the world to whatever happens. If someone attacks Canada or Mexico, it's their problem. They attack us, they will get armageddon in return.
Well, you should get right on that, then.

What do YOU know.
I support the troops JUST FINE. I even come from a military family.
The difference between YOU and ME is that I also support the BILL OF RIGHTS and the principles this nation was FOUNDED ON, wheras you, well, you support an IRON FIST ("Rights? They don't need not stinkin' rights. Kill 'em all, let God sort 'em out").

"We should just go up there and take your oil. If we want your water, we'll just help ourselves and there's nothing you can do about it. Aren't you glad you have America protecting you from the bullies of the world?"
