I see. So we're engaging is low-grade ODS. And a subject change.
I just wanted to make sure it was a slippery-slope argument. But that was neatly side-stepped. Instead of answering the actual question, just ignore it and pretend like it wasn't asked at all.
If Western Europe is in danger, I wonder just WHEN it will be in danger. Georgia in 2008. Six years later, Ukraine. So, some time in 2104, we'll see Russia putting tanks on Poland's border?
So, I'll ask again - what tangible interests are at stake for us to raise taxes or put on the Infinite Visa card, never mind putting folks in danger for? I see the philosophical interests, and those are interesting. But what are the tangible interests?
