As US citizens who have grown up within the confines of American society, we have been so conditioned to believe that America can do no wrong … when in fact the US Federal Government has evolved into a global bully which can do very little right outside of its own borders.

Where “You’re either with us or against us” worked during the Bush dictatorships, it won’t work in the years to come.

The carrot and stick approach taken toward our international neighbors is simply untenable going forward. How do you spell E C O N O M I C —> D E P R E S S I O N ?
