One person listened. 2009 he wrote the book. He listened.

It is acknowledged that allies in NATO are not arming, they are disarming. Evidently, our allies don't see THE THREATS the USA military does.

Dr. Andrew F. Krepinevich, Jr. (click here) is President of the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments. 

NATO has not committed the two percent of their GDP to military hardware. Go figure. 

NATO learned it wasn't the people and countries that needed to have military hardware. It learned that from "W."

Why should NATO invest in a military it will never need? It was a wrongful war into Iraq and it finished the discussion for allies.

The truth is the USA creates its own problems and then fights a war when it becomes a large enough problem. I remind, the Executive Branch knew about the impending attacks of a madman exiled into Afghanistan. It knew and it neglected the safety of the American people and our infrastructure. 

The danger to the American people was allowed to exist and the war was the goal.

On, cute. The USA needs primacy. Now, the USA is supposed to have an outpost in every corner in the world, but, better yet why not simply complain about allies and tell them they ain't doin' their jobs. 

I tell you what. Let's just stop teen pregnancy.

Dating apps are increasing rates of STIs, (sexually transmitted infection) (click here)  according to the British Association for Sexual Health and HIV.

One of the UK's leading sexual health doctors says "apps have to invest more time in pushing a safe sex message".
"You are able to turn over partners more quickly with a dating app and the quicker you change partners the more likely you are to get infections," Dr Peter Greenhouse has told Newsbeat.


"What really worries me is that we are just at a tipping point for HIV"...

Pinch me, pinch me, tell me I am hearing things. 

The message is getting through.

Christopher Preble stated national building doesn't work. I must be hearing things. No, no he said it twice. He stated the USA is much better off with a leaner and effective military that rises to the occasion threat and not an extensive war.

I think I can take the day off.

I need to get a book.

"The Power Problem," How American Military Dominance Makes Us Less Safe, Less Prosperous, and Less Free. (Cornell University Press, 2009).

Thank you Pope Francis.
