We have invested so much in being the greatest power ever that to not use the machinery seems like a waste of resources. The solution seems simple until the consequences of our actions become clearer. How is that Arab Spring looking? Not all sunshine and lollipops. Financially and morally, we cannot continue. We need to get our own house in order.
