I am sorry but that is a BS argument. People make their own decisions on their own lives and they must live with the decisions they make. There is welfare and UI for those who just get a turn of bad luck but why would the US spend their money (they are quite highly in debt by the way) to help the poor when its likely it wouldnt do much. Its know that around 3-3.5% of the population either cant work or are lazy and wont work no matter what. That is why Alberta is thought to have nearly full employment even though the unemployment rate is at about 3.5%
I agree, I dont think the US should have any forces anywhere in the world with the exception of their own land, especially in the Mid East. We should let Europe deal with the Mid East - they are more than capable - heck France's Foreign Minister called Iran (a state that called for the extermination of an entire race) a STABALIZING force in the region.
