Well, right !

You were not really playing "world cop" before, this was just a mere action to secure resources and enforce hand-tight political goals for the US, by the US, around the world. But now as someone decides to help the population instead of its dictator at the head, you say "we should not play world cop" ? Then you should not have done it before - this is the first time it is done for the people and the rest of the world is aware of it.
But you freely chose to build more flattops, submarines, drones, stealth ships and pay billions for the military development, and the upkeep of what's already there.
Along with illiteracy and whatnot you "wisely refrain" from good education and a public health system for everyone, and if anyone proposes to spend at least a tenth of the military expenses for your own population's good and improvement he is a communist and a traitor, was born in Kenya (imagine THAT, someone born in Kenya ! Outrageous!! Oh he was born in Hawaii !! Where is that ? do you know he's black ? Awwwe) and is the Antichrist.
At the same time you sponsor and pay the bank directors who are responsible for the worst crisis since 60 years in financial circles, while hundred thousands of US citizens are bankrupt because they trusted those very banks.
The US was already bankrupt after the Vietnam war, there was just enough money printed by the federal bank, today money itself IS debt, and inflation is a hidden tax on the public. The last time the US were not in debt was the civil war, using the northern greenbacks - after the federal bank had been closed by Lincoln as violating US constitution (!) there wasn't even a federal bank in the US, until 1913.
I can't hear that BS anymore ! Yes goddam, keep your house clean, and begin with the banks, CIA, and the cold war warriors who still lead this country by the nose.
