i bet dem lib garbage was in charge for those 21 years.


seriously, you don't get to be the #1 superpower in the world thru hard work and being the good fuy.

you get to be #1 by manipulating situations and countries, managing the debt, and fcking everyone every chance you get for 200 years.

If you can't accept this, go teach sunday school.  There are no good guys here.   its jsut about which team you're on.  Our team is #1 cause we're better at the game than the rest of the world.  We don't war because it/s right or wrong - we war because it's profitable and helps us grow in the long run.

Just seems exaggerated, but maybe the graph is accurate. Who knows. One thing throughout history, is that the big dog is always fighting, cause he has to keep his spot.

I'd love to see how they break this down.  I bet they count the Indian wars...both the Revolution and war of 1812 to start.

Thats what Im thinking, there is no way that we have been at war THAT MUCH. Im sure its not far off, but cmon.
Id be interested to know if theyre counting entire years at war, or if a war started in Dec 68, that they count the whole 68 year.
Seems impossible.

In times of war is where the most technological advances are made.  The greatest inventions are a necessity by cause.

Seems like alot of the great advances, including advances in medicine, come from military tech.

We have the best heavy trauma doc's in the world. On my last tour one of my E-5 was a former decorated medic...he used to say all the time that gun shot wounds and severed limbs were never a problem..burns were the worst.

woa there fella your spacing out again

you get there by engineering devlopemnt and free trade adn massive engineering awesomeness that results even tho u gota crat zillions of losers who don't work along the way and listen to commies bitch you dont give them more of the wealth they didn't create

then as many learn that with gov slush money u can live off others the parsitism grows liek cancer and so does chorus about inequality all the while those non producers try n suck more from producers who are like fuck you
