True, the American people have learned their lesson, at least for today, but our gov't has not. They continue to borrow at accelerating rates. It's really scary. And now Obama wants to spend another $800B in Afghanistan, where we will get zero return on our investment. I am sick and tired of these worthless wars that destroy tens of thousands of American lives and cost us trillions of dollars.

For a fraction of those costs we could have been oil independent and then we wouldn't ever have to worry about fanatical Muslims in the Middle East anymore. We're so short sighted.
