SE Hoya Containment Thread (aka Politics) - Page 361 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Whatever may be done to guard against interruptions of supply and to develop domestic alternatives, the U.S. economy will require large and increasing amounts of minerals from abroad, especially from less developed countries. That fact gives the U.S. enhanced interest in the political, economic, and social stability of the supplying countries. Wherever a lessening of population pressures through reduced birth rates can increase the prospects for such stability, population policy becomes relevant to resource supplies and to the economic interests of the United States.

Can we at least pretend to acknowledge that Saddam was overthrown because of a movement to take oil off the dollar, and Gaddafi was overthrown due to Libya's large horde of minerals and their movement towards an independent currency? Or maybe acknowledge America's role in the destruction of the world simply due to selfish interests? That it's all a joke and a scam in the guise of making people safe? And maybe we should acknowledge who has a hand in all these actions for the past 50+ years, who has worked to continue this power seeking and destruction, and who people have openly admired regarding foreign policy?

Yes, Trump views the USA's foreign interventions as a dumb waste of money for those not specifically connected to the industries

Overlooking the river. It's very nice.

Edit: It's good times when a nonsensical mispost that was meant for text message gets quoted.

But, yes, they did give me the nicest room in this Pittsburgh hotel.

Oh, I don't have a horse in this race either. Glad that my leader kind of sort of elbowed a lady and that was our national crisis.

To go back to the last page, I get hating intervention or conflict and backing Sanders or Johnson, but Trump? Doesn't work.

You don't have to even defend Trump let alone support him to be for a movement that wants the people in power to be out of power considering the disgusting repulsive things that they have done and will continue to do.

This is delusional. Supported Iraq war, championed Libya policy, supports the extrajudicial drone war, thinks Snowdon is a traitor. In what way is she different than a neocon on foreign policy?

The entire forum is well aware of your grasp on Trump's intentions and abilities.

Frankly I don't know what we're gonna do without your prognostications.

Obviously anyone arguing Trump would be better on foreign policy is clueless.

Trump unironically wants to target innocent women and children, and implement torture.

Hillary is all sorts of bad, Trump is incompetent bordering on evil.

I didn't underestimate Trump. I overestimated the Republican Party.

Shane if you're really curious I'm not pro Hillary or Bernie

Laughable in their own ways

If I go hard against Trump here it's because it seems like everybody here understands all the negatives of those two, and hand waves away Trump's lols.

Just my perception

I do get a kick out of Shane calling Sanders a "loony eyed Marxist" like it's 1956 and red-baiting is still fashionable. Millennials like socialism just fine.

A variant of the CURRENT YEAR reference and an appeal to the authority of millennials.

I can't even.

Though I do regret that my contempt for batty old Marxists will never match that of the puppetmasters of the DNC.
