If the US would practice "shock and awe" within its own borders
then

1) the defense industry would have more than enough "empty space" to test its products, creating increased demand for more materials at a higher price

2) some infrastructure would have to be rebuilt again, creating new jobs for everyone

3) the US Post Office and Federal Express would do alot of business delivering care packages from the rest of the world.

4) your food supplies would finally be put to use

5) taxpayers would see where their hard-earned tax dollars are being wasted

5) there would be no more ARROGANT talk at DU of attacking other countries by December.


Peace :-)

1. "ARROGANT talk at DU of attacking other countries by December"
I don't think anyone here is promoting the idea.
