The cost of our neo-imperialist foreign policy has become quite high. It's time we stopped creating new enemies to fight. In a globalized economy, Smithian capitalist theory demands that capital be circulated throughout. Foreign (and economic) policies that create and support vast sewers of poverty may benefit global monopolists, but they don't create a healthy economic system. And they create pools of hopeless people ready to give their lives to strike a blow at "the enemy"-- meaning us.
