I have a hard time putting this into words so pease forgive me.
If you look at the past we seem to fail to learn from many of our mistakes. We fall into the same traps over and over.
I think about how much we could gain if we took a lesson from the fall of the Roman empire. We spread our forces to thin, we have week borders and outsource jobs to other countries too much. I'm not in any way preaching isolationism here but, it seems to me that we are asking too much of our resources to be able to maintain this for much longer.
