I like America. I'd rather be in Switzerland, but I don't have a ton to complain about here. However, I do believe that we pick and choose our battles not by the urgency of the issue but the profit we can gain from it.
I realize that someone has to foot the bill, but come on... We should be in Sudan, not Iraq. There are so many atrocities going on in Africa now I can't even begin to explain. (And most of those atrocities are linked to Europe's colonization of Africa. Thanks guys) The real reason we aren't going to Africa? There's just no money in that!
I guess I can't complain about the U.S. doing that all that much. The UN certainly does it as well.
