Nation Building
The current US regime is adept at nation building; however, the nations they build are "failed states". Iraq is going that way, and rather quickly, too. Approximately 50,000 troops will stay there forever - or, at least until we have finished renovating our own Homeland Failed State Model right here, and can no longer afford it.

We can't afford it right now. We could not afford it yesterday and the day before either.
It always surprises me what we actually can afford.
We will literally bleed money for an idiot war or for Wall Street, but not a dime (comparatively speaking) for reshaping the lost and unutilized underclasses of our country.
Alas, I'm no longer surprised. This is who we are. Or what we have become.
It is what Conservative thought has let itself degrade into: another signal failure of the educational system... another beast slouching towards Bethlehem... or was it Bedlam?
