Dear Erica,
It would be unpatriotic of me to agree with you, but I don't
anyway. The economic and military resources of the USA are being
squandered in short-sighted, ill-conceived adventures in
imperialism. As with the ex-Soviet Union, it is imperial
overreaching rather than external challenges that are destroying our
well-being.

No need to apologize, although I would suggest that Europeans had a
culture of sex without any help from us, long before our inventions
the movies, computers, and television invaded your countries. And
Africa, Asia, and South America have plenty of violence without US
exporting any culture thereof.

If Europeans had dealt with the Balkan crisis without needing US
intervention, it would have done a lot to build European cooperation.
My best wishes for the successful progress of the EU-- which I hope
will not occur at the expense of downtrodden American workers.
Cheers,
