Just to re-emphasize:
53 percent of American households props up not just this country buthalf the planet: They effectively pick up the defense tab for ourwealthiest allies, so that Germany, Japan, and others can maintainminimal militaries and lavish the savings on cradle-to-graveentitlements.
A relatively tiny group of people is writing the check forthe entire global order.What proportion of them would need to figure out that the game’s no longer worth it to bring the whole system crashing down?
