[QUOTE="curiousbrain, post: 830193, member: 31608"] I thought of it at work in an abstract sense while I was thinking about the US; but it is not a direct assessment of the US. I don't think the average citizen would support war against other countries purely out of self-interest. Least of all, because politicians are rarely that honest - if a war was started for some resource, I would love to see the politician who came right out and said "Yep, we're in it for the resources and nothing else." I agree the point is somewhat obfuscated, that is not by intention; it's an ongoing idea I think about while laboring. [/QUOTE]
