Their are just many good things going on from us being over there...but I honestly think it's not worth every American's expense (taxes) to be used to benefit another nation. Why not the starving children in Africa? Why not other nations who could use the help?

I think it was right to take out Saddam and look for Bin Laden, but not right to benefit another nation to the point where they can have a democracy, elections, etc..

I don't know, it's just very difficult to think about.
