I respect a lot Mr. Paul, but in the last paragraph he makes the typical american mistake. It is NOT "always your business", and you are not "the ones to solve the world's problems". Indeed, its just the opposite: the empire doesn't give a damn about world's problems UNLESS there is a gain to make, in terms of strategic power or resource control.
