Should the United States be the World Policeman anymore.?

Question

Should the U.S be the World Policeman anymore.

The Problems that plague the country today in politics

What do you think. Inflation, Our Dollar, Oil, Foreign Policy.

What historical events do you disagree on with the U.S being the World Policeman of the Free World.

I believe we are out of money with this fiasco.

Answer 1

Our foreign policy is the reason behind our weak dollar, inflation and plays a large part in the price of oil.  It is also our foreign policy of the last 7 years that has left us with zero credibility within the international community and rightly so.  In the long run, whether we want to be the 'world police' or not, we've lessened our standing as a voice for democracy and human rights in the world which I believe will hurt us long term unless we can quickly turn it around.

Answer 2

I first traveled out of country in 1973 and was already received as a Global Bully (all 100 pounds of my little girl self). We're 35 years worse off and the world is 35 years less appreciative. I'd like to close the borders and clean our own house with total faith that the other countries of the world can clean theirs.

Answer 3

I wish that the gov't would close the borders and all military bases overseas JUST to see the outcome. I would rejoice if it had good results. I am so sick of those creeps abusing US.

Answer 4

Absolutely NOT!  The interventionist foreign policy combined with ignoring the Constitution, government subsidies of corporations, social programs, curbing of individual civil rights, and the existence of fiat currency causing inflation, have caused the problems you've mentioned.

The US should never have gotten involved in:

1. The Spanish-American War

2. WWI

3. WWII

4. Korea

5. Vietnam

6. Gulf War I

7. Gulf War II

8. All covert and overt operations in Central and South America

9. All CIA operations worldwide

Some of the possible solutions would be:

1. Sound monetary policy (100% Gold monetary system)

2. Abolish the CIA, and the FBI

2. End the war in the Middle East

3. Withdraw all US troops from all US military bases overseas

4. Close all US military bases overseas

Answer 5

Let France, Denmark, Norway Sweden Rot right along with the Middle East, Mexico, Canada! They are Not our Friends just Leeches...Shut the Borders
