The foreign policy of the United States is a catastrophe, putting it mildly.
We could begin with the tearing upon of the internationally negotiated treaty we had with Iran, and then starting a war with them shortly after “obliterating” their nuclear capacity. From there, we have the attempt to annex Greenland from our (former) NATO ally Denmark, trying to make Canada our 51st state, taking over the Panama Canal, and capturing Cuba and Venezuela.
In all, we’ve become a rogue, pariah nation.

Having said that, there is a limit, and we just may be approaching it, as we see at left.
People are starting to figure this out.
A reader sent me this meme and adds: It’s funny how rich people always send you the invoice.
It’s always struck me that exporting our hate and stupidity to other planets is a terrible idea. Given all our wonderful resources, if we can’t figure out how to take care of ourselves, extinction is the only option.
