We were free traders but military noninterventionists for the first 150 years of our history.

This century, IMO, internationalist military intervention has gotten us into a questionable World War (the Great War, that is) and several "police actions". Free trade has, however, made us rich as well as our trading partners.

In my view, internationalist military intervention is merely a vehicle for further power grabs at the Federal level as well a step toward a one world, government-centric politics.

I have no problem with the global economy but I think US military intervention where no direct threat to our country is present is a "no-win" situation. I stress "direct" as the key word.

Ciao,
Daniel
