People will not say America's an over powering nation, they will beg for our involvement.

And of course we can always go into places we absolutely feel we need to be involved in.

However, we should also keep in mind that this will create a lot of enemies, which means our homeland security will need to be top notch, and our military might grater than any, but over all we should save money, become safer and more liked.
Then while we cripple our military doing dirty work for other countries, countries like China, who are mass producing weapons specifically designed to weaken our strengths, will slip in whenever they please.

No thanks, I speak softly, but I carry a big stick, and no other country can borrow it.
