With Afghanistan going into 17 years, Brown University put out a report that details America's imperialism overseas. Some of their findings are astounding
At what point do you think our debt/borrowing will become unsustainable?

Yes but shouldn't you be more worried about all the money we're spending on poor people with welfare?

nah. We can just ship them off to some other No borders Welfare Country. I hear Canada isn't all that cold anymore due to Climate Change, and I hear France will soon be putting up "Warning Poop On Streets" Signs.
The EU Empire will take em all! Cause they can't say NO cause...No Borders!
Easy FIX!

Isn't imperialism any kind of control of another country? Including economic? (What is politics, if not control for the benefit of a narrow interest?)
By that standard, all our debtors are imperialists.

Imperialism is one of those words that has been ruined for me. Alongside "colonialism" "problematic" "deconstruct" "unpack" "diversity" "inclusivity" and "equity"

Re: War on Terror-cost balloons to 6 trillion dollars
I was talking to my brother about this last night.
Imagine what we could have done with $6 Trillion. Perhaps cure 95%+ of all forms of cancer?
Advanced bio-tech by 10-20 years further than we are, now?
Developed True AI?
There's so much absurd things we could have done in these 17 years with $6 Trillion. I know that I could have greatly changed humanity for the better with just $1 Trillion.
Re: Re: War on Terror-cost balloons to 6 trillion dollars
i agree.
The fact is, this pretty much proves just why government isn't fixing shite. That is some SERIOUS pork.

Not sure why the left loves killing words. Racism, nazi, fascist, sexist...have been robbed of most of their meaning by people too stupid to properly use them.

The government wasted a lot more than just 6 trillion dollars in the last 17 years. the system needs a major overhaul, but I doubt it'll ever happen.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
About a month after the election at some rally, he told his Cult that "drain the swamp" was basically just something catchy to say but had no real meaning.
He told them he duped them to their faces and they continued to clap and cheer. Though I will say, the clapping and cheering was a bit subdued compared to normal. So at least a few Trumpers realized they fell for the conman.
You can keep your doctor, not a smidgeon of corruption, my administration had no scandals.

My favorite was Harry Reid lying about Mitt Romney and when confronted going "well...we won".
Good stuff! And of course democrats all over the country slammed him for it. I mean...if they didn't..it'd give them no right to ever whine over Trump lying.

As of October 28, 2018, debt held by the public was $15.8 trillion and intragovernmental holdings were $5.8 trillion, for a total or "National Debt" of $21.6 trillion. Debt held by the public was approximately 77% of GDP in 2017, ranked 43rd highest out of 207 countries. The Congressional Budget Office forecast in April 2018 that the ratio will rise to nearly 100% by 2028, perhaps higher if current policies are extended beyond their scheduled expiration date.[8] As of December 2017, $6.3 trillion or approximately 45% of the debt held by the public was owned by foreign investors, the largest being China (about $1.18 trillion) then Japan (about $1.06 trillion). -wiki
