Our freedom.

Who was threatening us? The Koreans? The Vietnamese? Granada? The
Bosnians? The Iraqis? The Afghans? Are the Iranians threatening us
now?


The Japanese, the Germans, the Koreans. The rest we aided others for
democracy. Do you think we can just get rid of all of our national
defense?


We don't need a defense budget that is more than the whole rest of the
world combined. (40% of that is borrowed money)


OH, I agree!

Erskine Bowles made an interesting comment. We have a treaty with
Taiwan that says we would go to war with China if Taiwan was attacked
but we would have to borrow the money from the Chinese to do it.


That is interesting to say the least!
