What would happen......if?

Question

we withdrew all of our troops, whether its from europe, germany, kuwait, iraq, afghanistan, japan, south korea, etc.......we have them all come back to home, we stop all aid to all 3rd world and poor countries and totally become isolated to ourselves.

instead, use all the billions on health care, education, welfare, poverty, etc.

wouldnt that be so much better?

do you agree or disagree?

Answer 1

Are you serious? Well, Iraq would go into a complete civil war, Europe wouldn't like us very much, North Korea would invade South Korea, and China would finally invade Taiwan. Basically, a lot of people would die that didn't have to die, but we decided to be selfish and stick to ourselves. We are the most powerful country in the world and we have the power to stop things from happening that would kill innocent lives.

Answer 2

the world would go to hell.

We have troops stationed all over world to act as a buffer (say between S. Korea and N. Korea). Besides, with the state that the world is in now, no country can truly be isolationist.

Answer 3

I don't know anyone past the age of 13 that even begins to think of such an absurd thing. Even the super leftest would love to see it, even they are dumb enough to believe the US can survive totally in isolation. Go visit John Lennon's grave and hum 'Imagine'. the gospel song of the idiots.

Answer 4

In the long run it would hurt our economy, by becoming Isolationist we would be cutting off ties with everyone Politically. I f we do not act like a part of the world the world will cut us off.

Answer 5

As wonderful as it sounds up front, the big picture is it would in the end hurt our country. Our economy would fall.

Answer 6

we would become bankrupt in 10 years no one would trade with us the world would collapse on itself, there would be another superpower that would be formed and threaten our existence and we would have no money left to defend ourselves

Answer 7

WW3

Answer 8

Heck, no.
