I agree, Rapaire. And likely result in far fewer wars--on drugs, terrorists, communism, Al Qaida, WMD, and miliatry adventurism in Panama, Haiti, Colombia, Nicaragua, Guatamala, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Palestine, Afghanistan, the Phillipines, and many other "bases" around the globe we have no business having our imperial bases.

First one to figure out this empire is not sustainable, much less worthwhile, and say they will kill the empire--and mean it--will get my vote.
