OT Haim, the US is not only not "plundering" the world but it is in fact the main engine of growth for the world. Without the US trade deficit, Asia will sink into depression, the Japanese long term recession will turn into a long term depression, and the European growth will promptly disappear. Seems to me that our "subjects" are laughing all the way to the bank, getting a much higher return on their US dollar investments than anything they can get on other hard currencies. As for US arms, it is my understanding that the world arms market is extremely competitive and many countries such as Great Britain, France, Russia, Israel, Brazil, etc. are in it. Among these many arms exporting countries, the US has the most stringent restrictions in its arms sales. Sorry for the somewhat strident tone of this post, but I was ticked off by your somewhat eccentric view of the world during this memorial weekend, when we are remembering the numerous Americans that lost their lives defending the world against bloodthirsty dictators like Hitler and Stalin.
