They hold enough of our money to crush us. True, but they would crush themselves even worse. It would certainly be less damaging to them than a war and we seem to be spending $790 billion on defending from that. I don't think we're spending $790B defending against China. It's a bit more complicated than that. It is still far too much money. We are spending 100 billion dollars a year in a country with a GDP of $27 billion trying to kill 40 guys. How does that make any sense? Bob likes to complain about Iraq but at least we toppled a dictator who threatened Israel. I am not sure we have done anything in Afghanistan but create more terrorists and destabilize Pakistan. There's no way to equate the two situations. We spent $1+ trillion and counting in Iraq. One is a war, the other is just a waste of money. Indeed, D'Plume. A waste of money, just like the stimulus package. Indeed, you are a moron. |
