Plowshares, not swords

Of course we want to be secure in the USA, but must we be anxious & distraught to this extent? I suggest another solution. Why don't we attempt to help the world rather than conquer it? or reputation was never higher than when we gave a suffering world the Marshall Plan. Our military budget would equal a spectacular Marshall Plan.
