- James Howard Kunstler -

But Mr Kunstler, if we pull back from destroying countries, the ramifications would be devastating to our political-economic theater of operation.
The weapons manufacturers would have to lay off the employees.
The massive debt loads carried by not just the manufacturers of destructive devices, but also those of the employees would no longer be serviced.
The citizenry would probably demand our troops be brought home and the military would experience a massive reduction in force.
The deficit would experience a precipitous decline resulting in a who knows what kind of implosion of our economy.
And then, without a litany of enemies to fight, the citizenry just might recognize that the denizens of the Washington DC political and bureaucratic scene might just be the real enemy of our economy.
Never forget that all of this additional unemployment would create a total mess for the hard working bureaucrats tasked with fabricating make believe statistics meant to demonstrate that things are getting better.

Sir you have no idea of the difficulty that goes into maintaining the USA's status as the bully of the block.
Why even the multi-national corporations would be forced to play in the international realm without the backing of the US military.

We could face an existential threat from Andorra.
Our political parties might get supplanted by the likes of every group from the Knights of Columbus to the Shriners to even members of the Sagebrush Rebellion.
None of these political outsiders know the intricacies of US capital politics and the lobbyists that work who so hard to maintain American exceptionalism.
Sir, I beseech you to think about the children who will face a new and untried paradigm without our current way of life.
They might be forced to think for themselves.
Worse of all, they might not believe what the nation needs them to believe and still be willing to fight to protect our Constitution from all designated enemies, foreign and, ... , uh well just foreign.

Beginning of the headline :Senior administration officials say the new offensive holds promise and may change the dynamics on the ground. — The New York Times Whew…. That’s reassuring. Finally, a Middle East policy you can believe in. It’s apparently based on a joint Kurdish-Arab army that our side (the USA) is pretending to assemble around the ISIS stronghold of Raqqa, near the Turkish border. We’re informed also that American military officials have screened the leaders of the Arab groups to ensure that they meet standa... Read More
