No I don't think we are literally an empire madman. I think we have a military monopoly though and I think that is what Paul meant. You make a good point that most of those countries want us there, I just don't see the point to a military monopoly anymore. We could spend the money elsewhere or not spend it at all. I think that is what Paul meant.. That's how I took it anyway. Anyway, I'm going to bed. I'll catch you all tomorrow.
