"We have military forces deployed all over the world. We are everywhere. Why? We are a nation of 1/3 billion folks and the world population is about 50 billion.
Why does America have to take charge? Why does America have to play world cop?"

*sigh*. Granted, we have military forces deployed in many places around the world. Didn't anyone ever teach you that being a good neighbor has it's rewards as well as burdens ? Surely you're capable of seeing beyond your nose and recognize the benefit of established bases in critical locations around the world ?

So, I ask you again, who would you pass that responsibiliy off to ? France ? Turkey ? How about North Korea ? China ? Pick one.

No, I don't want cockroaches in my kitchen just like I don't want government taking pictures of me in my bedroom. And I don't want my government screwing with other other soverign nations. Our government is out of control; you love it to shape your well being.
