The author is an American, Christian, proud father, lucky husband, Irish Scottish heritage and a Texan by choice. I believe the U.S.A. is the greatest nation on earth, the greatest in history. Never has a nation freed or saved so many. When was there ever any nation that went to war, gave the land back, then put billions into it? I believe our core must include to take care of our young, our old, and our sick, then to do so for others in the world less fortunate than we are.
The defining principle of the Pentagon's new National Defense Strategy is balance. The United States cannot expect to eliminate national security risks through higher defense budgets, to do everything and buy everything. The Department of Defense must set priorities and consider inescapable tradeoffs and opportunity costs.
