Especially with the Citizens United ruling.  Thanks, SCOTUS, for screwing 
the voting system with corporate (and even foreign corporate) funds.

You also forgot 'trying to grow an empire'.  We really don't need troops 
in Korea, Vietnam, Germany, etc - those wars are all long since over.

Never mind Iraq and Afghanistan.  I'd add Libya to that list as well, 
except it *seems* for the moment we're out of there in any major sort of 
way.
