I mean, compared to Vietnam, we've done a lot more good with about the same amount of money and far less casualties. And then I compare it to the amount the government has spent on welfare to people who will never positively contribute to society at large, on regulations that allow other countries to do business here freely while restricting our business in their markets, or to foreign aid to countries that burn our flag, I'd say we're getting a deal right there.
But then again, I obviously hate brown people. :-p
