1. Is anyone alright with this?
How can anyone believe there should be no upper limit to American military expansionism? How does this equate with your idea of a free society and a representative democracy? I think this flys in the face of the very concept of a democratic republic.

"The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater."
— Frank Zappa
