Other nations don't have true freedom, they know if they do anything against a rule, they probably die, or get sent to a gulag for their entire lives and their families. Here you have chances, many many chances actually if you break the law, too many in my opinion. I agree with Barry, let's just pull our absolutely incredible service people home, defend our own borders let the world go to absolute hell. Europe will overrun in a matter of months by Russia or another aggressor, China will retake Taiwan and most likely Japan as well and North Korea will invade South Korea the moment we leave. Millions will die but hey you guys ask for us to stay out of it like we tried in both world wars, see how that turned out for everyone else?

THE US PRISON SYSTEM IS ACTUALLY LARGER THAN SOVIET GULAGS
What?s more shocking, is that our prison population has reached an ominous milestone over the past few years. The number of Americans who were in jail and prison, or on probation and parole, was 7 million people by 2009. When you include former inmates who have since left our prison system, you wind up with 19 million people as of 2010. This number exceeds the 18 million people who endured the Soviet Gulag system, between 1929 and 1953.
