Time to reverse course

Our foreign policy is bloated and totally nonsensical.
We can pretend that as a antion we can maintain a unified foreign policy by giving out titles such as war Czar, but the fact is our foreign policy is open to change with each and every election. We were not designed to operate as an empire and protect the globe. That we made it work for so long as a real testament to the American can-do attitude, but it simply can't last. I previously provided a long (120+) list of those countries we maintain a presence in. We claim that with great power comes great responsibility but to allow our debt to climb to nearly 10 trillion is a sign of a total lack of responsibility. A comunist nation (China) is bankrolling a large part of our foreign policy. We give a tone of money to Israel, and just so we don't look to be one sided, we give the same amount of money to those that would like We currently are occupying Iraq to ensure UN resolutions are followed, but the UN as a whole needed convicing of the merits of the war. So here's the thing. Our debt is currently 9.1 trillion, but if you take future promises into account, our debt is closer to 50 trillion. Our labor force is going to get smaller at the same time our debt spirals out of control. Somehow we need to find a way out of this nightmare before it is too late while still dealing with the coming clash of civilizations.
