Just us playing world's cop. Time for the US to be more like China in our foreign policy. Let's focus on trade and commerce and let the policing be handled by each country on its own.

Look. It's time to make hard choices. We can't afford war anymore. Either we cut back dramatically on domestic spending, increase taxes, or we need to stop policing the world.

Being bankrupt is sobering. It forces you to prioritize. WE've been living large for too long and sending our hard earned money to increase the wealth of other countries. Time to stop those practices.
