Well, people are gonna feel how they feel...but I do take issue that America doesn't have anything to offer anymore...
...sure we do, just not in the old coventional ways...
...how about support and the many forms it comes in
-agriculture
-military/protection (how many foreign cities flourish because of our installations, and the numbers of ppl that are employed??)
-$$ for medical research
-space programs
-advanced education (in all sorts of areas)
-technology
...this is a random list off the top of my head, but in reality there are so many more...and this list is nothing to sneeze at, we're talking global ramifications if these services were no longer provided...how many small countries would be under attack if we weren't 'Big Brother'??...YES, I do believe our military is (and has been) a marketable commodity...it's HUGE business!!
...but I, as an American, more than anything, want peace, a sense of brother/sisterhood among us all...where issues like these never become issues...I don't know if that will ever happen...but I hope...
