Not counting your returns on wine bottle deposits, of course.

We settled that long ago, you were full of gerbil dung, then and now. Besides that, a schedule C always beats a 1040. Nope. Since a Schedule C is a mere subset of a 1040, Line 40 doesn't give a damn where it came from. Granting, of course, that only a Schedule C filer can claim depreciation on inventories of returnable wine bottles.

Ed Rasimus wrote in message . ..
Regardless of the objective, the fact is that the US has NEVER after a war expressed any form of imperialism. What about the Spanish-American war? We took over the Philippines and later granted their independence. Since 1898, US tax dollars have frequently crushed guerrilla uprisings in the Philippines. We don't keep the territory we take with our blood and treasure. We rebuild it, establish a democracy and then make a partnership with them as the become economic giants. That is essentially true, but since we expect a return on investments, it is more accurate to say the United States has used a more subtle form of imperialism -- by focusing on economic controls and preferential trade agreements where possible -- with little or no emphasis on colonization or direct rule. This is unlike British and French imperialism which was more all-encompassing; they too wanted economic control but usually accomplished it through a more direct style of rule. Other times Uncle Sam acts against a specific country because we are more interested in regional stability, such as the current situation in Iraq. If you are implying that Iraqi oil itelf was not a significant motive for our invasion, then I agree. It simply doesn't track that we would suddenly revert to some sort of oppressive colonial policy. But military action in the interest of regional stability is just another way of preserving US financial interests, which by extention also means preserving our internal security. We have a right to do just that, and we will exercise that right, whether WMD is involved or not. If George Z. Bush and Art Kramer disagree, they can always move to France.
