I was talking about isolationism too.
"It doesn't work and it just screws things up badly."
And interventionism doesn't? Why does everyone in the middle east hate us? Because of past interventionism.
Why would they come all the way across oceans and deserts just to attack us, if we hadn't done anything to piss them off?
Isolationism is not only what works, it's what's American. There are so many instances in writing showing very obviously that the Founding Fathers had an isolationist society in mind.
This is a different time. There isn't a huge Nazi military force that is consuming Europe nation by nation. The world was fine until we invaded Iraq.
Furthermore, the money consumed by this measure is ridiculous.
