Since force projection has no relationship to defending America, it is illegitimate, and therefore any expediture for the tools of force projection are illegitimate as well.


Name a single time force projection was used to defend America, use any century you wish.
Naval blockades, Pat...I've got to go get one of my kids, so I'll be right back.

Think Civil War, think Revo War, think CMC, or think WWII since economic war is as much a burden as is the threat of invading armies.

Study well.
