During the 125 years from our Constitution to our entry into the Great War, we evolved into
the greatest economic power in the world while our focus remained domestic and insular.
Then 1917 dawned, internationalizing us, yet certainly not for the better.
If we choose, we can certainly remain the greatest economic power in the world, while
looking inward and dispensing w/our international neuroses.
Suggest it's long overdue that we refocus and start minding our own God Damn business.
I agree with a lot of this.
I would add if we are going to look beyond our borders it should be to develop better ties to the north and south.
