>> govt can't provide a 100% common defense... therefore, should we have no defense at all... after all, govt is not our salvation. << well the marxist utopian wilsonian globalist view is that we should sub-contract our military out to foreign nations. after all, free trade uber alles! if china can build our bombs and mexicans can make our tanks cheaper economists tell us that capital should seek out the lowest cost of production. the japanese sure make good cars, maybe we can save some money by contracting them to build our carriers and battleships. perhaps we can get airbus to make our strike fighters. free traitors such as gst and rdb must also be in favor of hiring mexicans or chinese or possibly indonesians to do our fighting for us. after all, we can pay them less. let's not start with the low-level logic arguments ok? they are ridiculous.
