[America's Resolve]

Well according your photo it seem you are the one with alchool problems...

Hmmm. I have maybe 2-3 drinks per YEAR.

I see a personal attack, but I don't see any rebuttal to any of the points I've mentioned.

Some random answers.... 1) "Humanitarian" aid is a way to exercise political power. I cancel you debt you give me concession to exploit those mines/forests/oil fields. It's often a way to bribe goverments.

2)Same of above. No military abroad i.e. less political influence for the U.S. abroad.

3)....and face unrest in Nigeria,Angola ,Guinea and consequent disruption of ExxonMobil plants. Africa has become "interesting" since they found exploitable oil fields there.

4,5,6,7) So you support protectionism, isn't it? No trade, no export , no imports. At least oil and raw materials have to be imported (and since 2004 food too). Actually the U.S imports 1.5 trillion of goods and services a year: can all of them be home-made?

8)movie/music/sowtware industries account for some 5-10% of the economy, and face competition as well. Non piratable Microsoft OSs would be fastly replaced by piratable ones (i.e. Linux). As for music and movies its IMPOSSIBLE to protect them from piracy.

You gave the prescriprtion for suicide.
