Tell me, which one of those countries realistically has the capacity to invade the United States ?
Which one is parking aircraft carriers off the coast of Florida ?
And it's vastly cheaper for these countries to impose their will via soft power. If anything making sure Americans have places to sleep will do more to ensure stability then posturing with overpriced jets.
- viklove 5y agoThey're not parking aircraft carriers off of Florida because we outnumber them 11 to 2. It would be pretty funny to see a single Chinese carrier parked in the Gulf, surrounded by 5 of our own though... Military superiority is a bit like air. When you have plenty of it, it seems trivial, but without it, you're left gasping for a breath.
- offtop5 5y agoYou know we got rid of a few of those aircraft carriers we could probably eliminate childhood poverty within 5 years or so. If you really think about it it's far easier to sow seeds of discontent in a population with so many poor. The sheer numbers of American poor, and those who feel abandoned is a security risk. They can be easily manipulated to destabilize the country. And when I think about it I don't think America has an obligation to take care of every other country on Earth.
