Look WB, I don't really have time to educate you completely on world history. You are a product of the public education system in America, and a prime example of why we need to do away with it altogether and start actually educating people again. You see, way back, we had a couple of world wars, and through those experiences, previous generations learned a very valuable lesson about military might and the importance of maintaining it. Whenever we withdrew into our own little isolated world and ignored the rest of the planet, totalitarian dictators established military states and roamed the eastern hemisphere with impunity, eventually enslaving much of the territory, and then threatening our own hemisphere. After countless thousands gave their lives to win WWII, we realized the best way to avoid something like that ever happening again, was to build the biggest baddest army with the biggest and baddest toys, and through our sheer military strength and presence, we could maintain some semblance of civility around the globe, and ultimately here at home.
Now, what has happened over the years, is nitwits like you and Mott have emerged, not learned anything from history, and you gobbled up all the Communist/Marxist/Socialist propaganda you could along the way. People much smarter than you, have filled your naive little heads full of ideas, that we don't really need all this bad ass military... why? Because our military keeps the totalitarian tyrants from running roughshod all over the Eastern hemisphere, like in WWI and WWII! They know that unless they can somehow diminish our military might, they can't ever do as they please, we won't allow it. So they convince you little fuckwits that we need to tone down our military a bit, there is no harm in that, it won't hurt us a bit to do it, nothing bad can happen, it's not possible. Once that happens, next thing you know, they are taking over countries and building unconquerable military forces, and we are powerless to stop them. And let's be clear, if they ever do manage to get the upper hand like that again, they will crush us without a second thought. You and I will probably be dead, but our children and grandchildren will live in a post-apocalyptic world like Mad Max or something, if they are lucky enough to survive the onslaught.
But in your little pea brain, this is all a bunch of bullshit that just can't ever happen! It's funny, that's what people thought before WWI and before WWII as well. Like I said, we supposedly learned a lesson, but we have now forgotten it completely.
