Re: US can outsource (none / 0)
What do you mean the can't outsource war? The US army is full of Mexican nationals, and Halliburton and Blackwater can hire as many foreigners as they like. In fact, there are thousands of Chilean and South African mercenaries in Iraq (ex-Pinochet and ex-Apartheid, gotta love it).

A society committed to the notion that government is always bad will have bad government. And it doesn't have to be that way. — Paul Krugman
