How do our successes punish us?
This victim complex being perpetuated by some is mindboggling to me.
We have the strongest military in the world. Bar None.
We have the strongest economy in the world. Bar None.
The cost of having those things is it REQUIRES us to invest more in preserving the global order that allows those things to continue.
Now we are intent on tearing that down.
How's nationalism working for closest ally in Europe so far?
Do we really want the largest trading block on the planet to also be militarily autonomous?
Honest questions.
