Now that we are on the same wavelength, let me show you that there could be another path. The global economy needs energy, right ? So far, the main source of energy is oil. Unfortunately, the muslims have most of it, hence the necessity to `force them` to be reasonable in their deals, right ?
To do that, a lot of money is spent on the military. At the expense of education, research, health, etc...
There are many other ways to make energy: solar, cold fusion, plasma, fuel cells...Unfortunately, none of them are financially viable, because the ressources have not been dedicated to develop them to the point they can beat oil. The politicians prefer to allocate ressources at the military to go get the oil. And fill the pockets of their friends of the militaro-industrial complex. Short term vision, while the right solution would be to become independant from muslim oil. And muslim terrorism would decrease at the same time, since there would be no more american presence on THEIR land. But asking politicians to look beyond a 4 year schedule may be a little too much, I understand that...

I presume you'll be the first in line to trade in your 911 on a GM Hy-Wire?
