Tim:"While the missile defenses we would build in Eastern Europe would be grossly inadequate to deal with either Russia or China (and not well situated for defending attacks from China or many areas of Russia) they would be a step in the direction of developing a larger more advanced and capable system.

koan: "which takes us back to my point. That is exactly why Russia does not want it and why we would not allow the same system in our backyard. Either party.

Besides that we are broke. In the last 8 years our dollar has fallen to historical lows. A big reason oil is so high. And we owe 1.5 trillion dollars to china alone and trillions to the rest of asia and the middle east. We send almost a trillion alone to the middle east each year for oil. And what do they do with that money?

We are in a very bad position financially.
