InterRelations

blushing_grace raised some very good questions in a recent post, especially at the end of her post:
"What should America be responsible for? To its own people, to other countries? Explain what we should be doing, what direction or structure our government should take on. Give me domestic, foreign policy outlines-even just a general philosophy. Criticizing and critiquing is all well and good, but what DO you want? What do you expect?"

I ended up writing this post while thinking about it. I wish I had answers that I felt were more practical... It's so easy to come up with how it should be. America should be responsible for its citizens first, and then once it has ensured life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for all of them, it should think about taking care of the rest of the world.

( But it never seems to be that simple ;) )
