I saw the report the UK put out on fighting #COVID19. The whole premise is that creating a herd of people who have already recovered will be immune. But this is based on the flawed assumption that once you are recovered, you are immune. Yet we know for a fact that some people who recovered, got sick again. So this plan can't work.
I also read about the dire report released today that said if we follow this plan in the US, it will overwhelm hospitals and lead to over 1 MILLION DEATHS here. No wonder ammo is sold out everywhere!
What you fail to discuss in your article is what is the cost to NOT policing the world? Regimes that are opposed to the US and seek our destruction would go unchecked. Terrorist groups bent on murdering US civilians would have the freedom to move and plot against us. Yes, policing the world is expensive, but the cost of not doing so is far higher.
I agree @[Dick Kaplan](user:7622). Instead of viewing the US as the bully of the world, interfering with other countries, how about the truth. That the US should bew viewed as the only country with the morale fiber to stand up to Iran. Other countries/companies have no morals and are more concerned with making a profit than keeping a dangerous threat to the world at bay.
Personally, I like #Trump and plan to vote for him again. But I'm not one of those nuts who thinks he does no wrong. Is he a liar? Sure. Is he egotistical and self absorbed? Absolutely. But I also think all politicians are, they just hide it better. At the end of the day it comes down to two things for me - the economy and security. And I think he's pretty good for both.
People are always stoking fears claiming that there will be a war in the Mid East. Personally, I think those fears are overblown. Despite all their posturing, Iran knows they would get wiped out with Trump in charge.
